    Coaching Programs?

    I've noted that some of the coaching programs that are being sold out there are nothing more than high priced scams. I can think of two that were very polished and persuasive. One offered good, but incomplete, info. Both were designed to draw you in with promises of fast money and big paydays. I dropped out of both before I really got into them. The main reason was their high pressure sales tactics used to get me to "upgrade" or buy a "license."
  2. I tend to think that words like "reward", "bonus", etc. seem to invoke a positive response or emotion whereas the word "bribe" tends to leave me with a "Am I about to do something wrong?" response. To me, words like "bribe" are linked to criminal behaviour.
  3. Moonbitco.in has a payout thresh hold of 25000 satoshis and ,as far as I know, cannot be changed. I have been a member for some time and have seen automatic payouts only after reaching the 25000 point.
  4. Hi, I saw a thread a few minutes ago regarding a certain bitcoin miner that wasn't paying. In that thread, I noted that someone mentioned another bitcoin miner that WAS paying. Can anyone recommend an honest,reputable and paying bitcoin miner that has a low cost start up? I am very interested to hear of any. Thanks.

    Saturation

    I tend to think of it not so much as saturation, but people have gotten used to the "get rich quick" scheme and fewer fall for it. There have been so many new ideas on the market that turn out to be nothing more than scams and rip offs. I think they are more skeptical to them. I have seen a number of them that look exciting to start with, but upon closer examination, they turn out to be scams.
  6. I think capture pages are the best way to go. Splash pages are fine for generating interest, but splash pages get email addresses.
  7. I got one payout from bitminer. But nothing since then. I notice that there is an error 521 server error now.
  8. I joned BTCClicks some time ago. Got paid on my first payout. Thought I was supposed to get more than I did. Then realized I misread my earnings. I forgot to move the decimal point over to the left three places. I use coinbase and haven't had an issue with them at all.
  9. One thing I wanted to mention about sites like this: Who can afford to pay .10 per click through and make a profit? I admit it is possible that there are some that can afford it, but not the majority who are struggling to make any profit at all.
  10. Before investing in any program (whether time or money or both), it's always a good idea to check them out. You can google the opportunity and look for reviews on it. It won't take long to figure it out from there. I would be careful about the "free" ones as well. They may force you to upgrade to get paid or make some other "demand". I would look them over first and go with my gut reaction. It could save you from further loss and heartache.
  11. The issue presented here is kind of a sticky one. If you have a lot of referrals to "help", it could get to a quagmire of trying to help them. I have been in some situations like this (on the receiving end). I didn't get any referrals (through their "help") and wound up quitting the program. My own efforts failed. I felt like I had been lied to. Just my thoughts.
  12. Definitely sounds like one. I would be suspicious for the "requirements" they impose to get paid.
  13. Hey, thanks for the input! Can you guys send me the urls for these? Looking to expand my bitcoin earnings! Please pm me!
  14. I would be interested in hearing about any PROVEN traffic generation methods. I have been disappointed by past results. Any VALID methods, please contact me.
  15. I've seen a number of these scams. Even tried one. When it demanded payment I moved on. Sadly, these are showing up more and more.
  16. 3rd relaunch? I would have gotten suspicious after the second time.
  17. Anybody ever hear the nae Vick Strizheus? It seems to me that every one of his programs has gone the same way. He always seems to blame the "programmers" for a site/program going down. All of this seems very fishy to me. I would be doubly cautious with this.
  18. I wanted to add something to this conversation. IF you are looking into doing some bitcoin mining ALWAYS check it out first. There are a number of them out there. Do a google search with the website's name and the word "review". When you look at the results, it should give you your answer pretty quick. Just be sure to read the posts carefully.
  19. I agree with the comment above. I have had problems in the past with such hosting companies that promise lifetime hosting, but don't really want you to make money. I learned a long time ago, not to invest in this kind of hosting, but rather use more established hosting companies. The reason? Better support when issues come up and they send you notices when you are running near the limit on your bandwidth. Just some thoughts.
  20. I'm not really sure how beneficial backlinking is now. One of the Google updates seem to weed out or penalize sites with too many backlinks (or gaining them too fast). I think they also penalize for sites that gain too many too fast. Where they drew the line is not clear. I realize this sounds a little vague, it was meant more as a caution regarding their use.
  21. After doing some research, it is hard to tell if it is a scam, but it does require state and federal licensing to pursue. With that in mind, it may not be worth the trouble.
  22. This looks like an attempt to steal someone's ID. With the information they are asking for, they could steal someone's id and really trash someone's credit rating and leave them with more hell than they thought humanly possible. My advice: delete it and save yourself from the nightmare.
  23. From everything I have seen, bitcoin scams read alot like scams that are trying to get your money. It's always a good idea to look at them very carefully and listen to your gut on such matters.
  24. Consistency in advertising is one of the biggest keys to any success using safelists. Arguably, there are more effective means of advertising, but each takes time to learn and have pitfalls to avoid. One thing I have learned is to promote using several methods and seeing which ones bring the best results.
  25. I use safelists mostly. I do get results. I try to stick to safelists that do work, not ones that have gimmicks.
