Scott Dubois's review...
My experience with the program so far

Hello and welcome to my review on GetResponse. Before I start this review I would like to say that this in the future will not be my main autoresponder if you go to my other reviews and check out my review on my other favourite autoresponder you can check it out. The other autoresponder I like is called SendShark and will be my main autoresponder in the future.

GetResponse has been an amazing autoresponder. I have had an amazing run with it. I would have to say that GetResponse and Aweber are the top autoresponders (Up until I found out about SendShark) in the Affiliate world.

The autoresponder is easy to use and easy to set up your account once you are on the inside. The system has normal features that every autoresponder has.

Forms to create HTML codes for your capture pages on other sites like LeadsLeap, It has your broadcasts, the autoresponder campaigns, it has a capture page and landing page builder, easy setup of different lists and an easy-to-see and use contacts list.

One additional feature I like about GetResponse in the contact list area is the ability to see how engaged your clients are.

Getresponse has a 5-bar system to show how engaged each client is bar 1 is not engaged at all.

Bar 2: Is at risk of going to bar 1

Bar 3: Is Neutral engagement

Bar 4: is Engaged

Bar 5: Is highly engaged,

Now I like this system better than other autoresponders because it is easier to see how engaged these people are. This makes it easier to Clean Your List! As I have stated in previous reviews Cleaning Your List Is like taking your dirty laundry to the laundromat or your own washing machine. Simply if you don't work on your list and don't "wash your Laundry" Your list will get dirty and it will affect your open rates and so on. It is extremely, EXTREMELY, important that you clean your list now and again.

After meeting so many of the higher marketers in our industry and speaking with them, like John Thornhill, Igor Kheifets, James Neville-Taylor, Dean Holland and many others they always say CLEAN YOUR LIST.

GetResponse does make this easy with their bar system which shows how engaged the client is. The unfortunate part is this is not like looking forward to clean laundry though... Sometimes it is sad to see clients go and sometimes I have to remind myself as sad as it is I have to do what is best for business and get rid of the unengaged people who are bogging down my open rates. I am seeing darn near 60% open rates because I clean my list regularly. I usually wait a month but no more than a month because a certain newsletter might bring them back which I have had happen. My mentor Igor Kheifets when he was teaching me said something in his training about "Resurrecting the list" and I have done that with certain campaigns not so much the list itself but more so with clients who went dormant.

Anyway, enough rambling on about that. This feature is truly amazing and easier than other autoresponders.

I also like their easy-to-use save-a-template feature.

Ever get sick of making an email and having to add your business logo maybe even your picture and a few other things every single time to every new email you write? I do too. They have a very easy-to-use save-a-template feature where you can keep a template you've made for the future. For instance, my current template is...

Logo

Body

selfie of myself

and then my whole body is preformatted to the regular 18 pt font and Georgia text which is a normal setup for emails in email marketing.

I know its a very short description of my template but really the only thing changing in that each time is the body of my email the rest of the template never really changes.

All in all GetResponse has been a really amazing autoresponder but of course, is no longer my top recommendation (As I said above see my review on Sendshark) GetResponse also has automation and stuff which the SendShark autoresponder lacks.

I don't really ever use automation very much anyway so really for what I use GetResponse for, Sendshark gives me the same.

What I Like

  • I like the easy-to-use autoresponder. It is very simple and one of the top autoresponders and can honestly say it is probably even better than Aweber in some aspects
  • I like the save-a-template feature as it is very simple to save a template with the normal setup you always use for emails
  • I like the engaged bar feature as I mentioned above it is really easy to see who is and is not engaged on your list with this feature.
  • I like how easy it is to set up emails with a few clicks of a button you can have an email setup in seconds
  • I like that GetResponse seems like one of the more professional autoresponders. I am all about being professional so when I see a tool that reflects that I really like it as I was brought up being taught about business and professionalism.

What I Dislike

Usually, I don't have complaints about systems that I thoroughly enjoy but this one on the other hand I do have a couple of dislikes.

  • Price- The price can be steep as I am paying 30 dollars a month right now for 2500 subscribers and that is not horribly bad but when you go past 2500 the price can go up from there. In my review on SendShark, I talk about the price for that autoresponder for 50,000 subscribers it is 25.00 a month or 300 for a year and when you get up to 50,000 subscribers with this one it is 245 dollars a month or 2940 dollars a year... Yea, that's going to be steep especially when I plan to take this Affiliate Marketing straight to the top and hope to have a huge list someday...
  • TOO PICKY... Sometimes when trying to import your subscribers from other lists on other autoresponders you own when those subscribers have opted into your list they don't like you importing them and will reject the import... Do it enough times and GetResponse will just bring down what I like to call "The Ban Hammer" I have never been banned by them but this makes it hard to switch over to them with a list from another autoresponder because they are too picky. I once tried to bring over a list from a different autoresponder because I was trying to get rid of it and they rejected it. They were prequalified leads but they wouldn't allow it...
  • Last dislike... They will take away campaigns and stuff if you knock back your subscription... Yup if you ever downgrade I got told that it will erase my work if I downgrade... That is sort of a kick in the pants considering that you did all that work into building those campaigns and they don't let you keep them there if you downgrade...

Final Verdict

My final verdict is I still think eventhough I had 3 dislikes about GetResponse that it is still worth it to the right person. If you don't care about the above dislikes and care to have a very professional autoresponder then GetResponse is for you. They are really amazing and really simple to use.

I said above that they are probably better than Aweber. I have had many issues with Aweber that I haven't had with GetResponse.

They are a great Autoresponder and I do stand behind them despite the dislikes. It was the very first autoresponder I started with and I have been really amazed.

I hope you enjoyed reading my review on GetResponse and I hope I have helped you make an informed decision on whether or not to go with GetResponse! Thanks for reading and I will catch you the next time.

Philip Martindale's review...
Master Affiliate Profits (MAP) is a system that has been put together by John Thornhill and Omar and Melinda Martin. John Thornhill is the founder of the successful and popular Ambassador Program. Omar and Melinda are CMO and CEO of Higher Level Strategies, providing training, products and services for online marketers.

Their aim with MAP is to provide a complete ecosystem for affiliate marketers. The intention is to safe-guard leads (so they are not poached by the program vendors) and to include traffic, training and tools within the system. In addition, affiliates who sign-up will enjoy 75% commissions on recruiting backers to the system during the current phase 2. Phase 2 has been extended while the developers add their finishing touches to phase 3. Phase 3 will be the phase when subscriptions switch to monthly.

My experience with the program so far

I joined on March 14th 2024. Though I consider myself very experienced with affiliate marketing, I have learned some absolute gems in the training. Implementing this new-found knowledge has helped me attract some high quality traffic to my one-link and build my list. I am confident that sales will follow soon as I can tell from the built-in tracking that I am getting a lot of interest from potential buyers.

By joining in phase 2, as a platinum member, I am showing my lifetime commitment to MAP. I can see how the system will remove many of the obstacles that have been holding affiliate marketers back. I am going to get 75% commissions on affiliates who join and upgrade to higher levels during phase 3, and I will also be entitled to level 2 commissions of 25%. As members will have to pay monthly (from phase 3 onwards), this will add up very nicely.

The lifetime cost of $797 (one-off) is good value for what you get, and just two sales will be all I need to earn more than that back,

Free members (joining in the imminent phase 3) will also be able to earn high commissions e.g. 100% on a product inside the system called traffic jump-start and 25% commissions on silver, gold or platinum level sales. Higher commissions are attainable by joining at the higher levels.

What I Like

I especially like the lead safe-guarding that MAP offers owing to the fact that it is an ecosystem. Its holistic qualities also mean that I have almost all the training and tools that I will ever need. The tools range from the ability to build funnels to creating bonuses and more. The training covers subjects such as list building, email marketing, traffic, video marketing, blogging, social media, and creating ads and banners.

I like the fact that the compensation plan is easy to understand and does not include gimmicks like powerlines and spillover and so on.

The fact that it will have a free membership option from phase 3 onwards, appeals to me, as it will be easier to sign prospects up who may then go on to upgrade.

I also like the way you can potentially earn commissions from external sources that the system integrates with or utilizes, such as WarriorPlus, JVZoo. Clickbank, Udimi, Aweber, Getresponse and so on.

In addition, I like the fact that free members who join in the soon-to-be-released phase 3 will get the opportunity to earn 100% on the so-called traffic jump-start product and 25% on silver, gold, or platinum level sales. These are high commissions especially considering they are available for free members.

The way that I can sort or filter my clicks by source, tracking ID and date, is a great feature as well as the way my leads and sales data are displayed.

What I Dislike

There is nothing I dislike. It has a few 'coming soon' items, but as long as they are indeed coming soon i.e. in phase 3, that's absolutely fine. The training and tools that are there are already very extensive.

Final Verdict

The system lives up to the claim that it is an ecosystem, with safe-guarding of your leads, built-in traffic, one link to promote, generous commissions, extensive training and tools and a thriving Facebook group.

My Experience with AI Millionaire: A Game-Changer

After trying more online business programs than I care to admit, I stumbled upon AI Millionaire—and it blew my mind.

Seriously, this is not just another hyped-up system that promises everything and delivers nothing. AI Millionaire has completely shifted how I approach making money online.

From the moment I signed up, I knew this was something different. The simplicity, the speed, and the results—all of it was a game-changer. If you're looking for a way to make financial freedom more than just a dream, this system could be exactly what you need.

What I Like:

Effortless, Fast, and Powerful

Instant Results Without the Tech Headaches

The setup was crazy easy. I'm not the most tech-savvy person, but with AI Millionaire, that didn't matter. In just a few clicks, I was up and running, and here's the kicker—within days, I started seeing results.

Yes, real money in my account, faster than I could've imagined. It's like having a millionaire's brain working behind the scenes, making smart moves for you 24/7.

Hands-Free Income Generation

I love the hands-off nature of this system. Once you set it up, the AI takes over, making email swipes, blog posts, video scripts and more all set up to your personal interests and stories making it ideal to draw in prospects and make you sales over and over again.

No more being glued to the computer, analyzing data, or stressing over what to do next—the AI does it all. It's the ultimate hands-free income generator.

Powerful Bonuses That Accelerate Your Success

Another thing that blew me away was the bonuses. AI Millionaire doesn't just give you the system; it supercharges your potential with the AI Traffic Machine and Millionaire-Cloning System.

These aren't just throwaway bonuses—they are serious tools that push your results into overdrive.

What I Dislike:

Perfection Doesn't Exist

To be honest, finding a real downside to AI Millionaire is tough. If I had to pick one thing, it's that it might feel almost too easy. Sometimes, it's hard to believe the system is working because it requires so little effort on my part.

But, let's be real—that's a great problem to have! If you enjoy being hands-on with every detail, you might need to adjust to this passive approach. But if you're like me and value freedom, you'll embrace it.

Final Verdict:

A Must-Have for Anyone Seeking Financial Freedom

In all my years of chasing the elusive "perfect" online business, AI Millionaire is the closest I've come to finding it. The system delivers real results, fast—and it's designed for anyone, regardless of tech skills or experience level.

Within just 2 days, I made $240 in commissions, and since then, it's been a steady stream of profits. Plus, their email creator has been a game-changer for promoting products with it making HIGHLY converting email swipes all tailored around my personal stories, answers to questions—talk about versatility!

If you're serious about breaking free from the 9-to-5 grind and building something sustainable and scalable, AI Millionaire is your ticket. Don't wait on this—it's easy, effective, and could be the key to unlocking the financial freedom you've been chasing.

Jump in now, and watch your life take a turn toward effortless success.

Scott Dubois's review...
Hello everyone, and welcome to my review of TrafficZest.com. Here, I'll share my experiences with this platform and provide updates as I continue to use it. So far, my journey with TrafficZest has been overwhelmingly positive.

What exactly is TrafficZest.com? It's not your typical traffic safelist or exchange. Instead, it offers a unique and effective method for driving traffic to your site.

Remember the old process of hunting for a solo ad provider, setting up your campaign, and hoping for the best? It seems almost archaic now, though it was just a common practice a year ago. You would input your URL, choose your desired number of clicks, see the cost, and then send your payment, only to often end up disappointed with low conversion rates that didn't even cover your initial investment.

Traffic Zest changes the game. It still operates within the realm of solo ads but introduces a crucial innovation. You can set up an ad campaign on the site, choose your niche—like Make Money Online, Weight Loss, or Health—and select from top solo ad vendors to drive traffic to your squeeze page or website. You can even leave your options open for all top vendors to participate, which I highly recommend.

The geographical location of your traffic isn't a constraint either. You can specify countries or opt for top-tier countries to maximize effectiveness. You can also choose the devices from which your traffic will originate, be it mobile or desktop.

What sets Traffic Zest apart is its bidding system, similar to setting up a Facebook ad but without the high risk of overspending before seeing any return on investment. The site allows you to set a Cost Per Click (CPC) rate—for example, bids can range from $0.28 to $1.46. You determine a daily spending limit, and the platform will deliver clicks within this budget, ensuring efficient use of your advertising dollars.

This system provides flexibility to pause and modify your ad campaign if it's not converting well, offering a significant advantage over traditional methods. It's a user-friendly, less risky approach that still caters to the needs of serious marketers.

From my personal experience, the traffic from Traffic Zest is high-quality and comes from reputable sources. Setting up ads is straightforward, and there's plenty of guidance available online if you need it. In my ongoing campaigns, I've noticed that the traffic is not only engaged but also results in high opt-in rates, which is crucial for building an effective email list.

Pros:

Highly engaged traffic from top solo ad vendors.

Good opt-in rates enhance list building.

Controlled spending with daily limits, similar to Facebook ad setups.

Simple, stress-free setup process.

Cons:

As of now, there's nothing I dislike about TrafficZest. Should this change, I'll be sure to update this review.

Final Verdict:

Give TrafficZest a try! It's a fantastic resource for any online marketer looking to enhance their traffic quality and improve their list-building efforts. The affordability and effectiveness of its unique bidding system make it a superior choice compared to traditional solo ads. I regret not joining sooner, as the benefits have been substantial.

I do highly recommend TrafficZest To anyone willing to build traffic. I still have yet to spend my first investment in this traffic source as traffic comes in and still on the higher end of my initial investment.

I have received good traffic from this source and continue to monetize it. I think everyone should have this in their online arsenal.

Thank you for reading my review. I hope it provides you with valuable insights into TrafficZest and helps you make an informed decision about using it to boost your online marketing efforts. I wholeheartedly recommend TrafficZest for anyone focused on building a robust email list.

*UPDATE*

I have now earned 2 sales with this traffic and have earned MANY, MANY sign ups to a lot of my offers all off of 1 investment of 100 dollars. I did a review on my youtube channel too where I showed that I had sales from traffic zest. It is totally amazing and a great traffic source to truly invest in!

I highly, HIGHLY, recommend it. Also do keep in mind the results are not typical and at the end of the day... Your emails, offers, capture pages, and thank-you pages GREATLY impact what success you will have as this is a soload type website... But I have sales using this great website!

Howlin Mike Howell's review...
My experience with this program:

I probably failed over 50 different online business opportunities before trying Secrets of The Big Dogs.

It was a game changer for me!

This is how I made my first sales and commissions; and I still make sales with it today and use the foundational tactics that I gained. It was a great online marketing boot camp!

This is a must if you're interested in affiliate and email marketing. It provides the necessary know-how to make it work.

You will use this as long as you do online business!

What I like:

The beauty of this $7.00 e-book?

It gives you real and doable "secrets" that the top marketers use every day.

You will learn how to get:

  • Plenty of real traffic to whatever opportunity you want.
  • Multiple sources of income through promoting one link.
  • A time-saving strategy (Adapt it to your business! )
  • Apply the necessary email and affiliate marketing tactics.

If you have zero online marketing experience, with a reasonable effort - using these strategies you should have success or at least find out if you really have the willpower to make it happen.

Internet Marketing is a fast-flowing river of constant change and can be frustrating. However, this valuable biz-smart info will clear any confusion.

It breaks down all the hype that distorts the truth about making $ online!

This is not another Shiney Toy promise... It reveals strategies that really work!

What I dislike:

This is jam packed with about everything you need to know about the basics of Internet Marketing, however; one extremely important subject is left out!

... It deals with lead generation and mailing lists. Since the ceo of the website handles this task, he doesn't focus on it.

But you will eventually need this skill. In fact, every seasoned marketer knows starting your own mailing list is important for success. Perhaps he sees this as an advanced skill.

Secondly, there is no video training. However, this is probably to keep everything as simple as possible.

My final verdict:

You're Not going to be an instant millionaire with this, but with consistent effort you have the potential to make a modest $2000 a month, or with serious focus, you can make a possible six-figure income.

It will provide the mindset to go to the next level.

This is the "Bible" for email/affiliate marketing, and I highly recommend it for every newbie or person who may be frustrated online.

These are foundational basics every successful marketer must know!

KASH EMPIRE's review...
I've been a member of The Downliner for about a month now and I would have to say that I am highly impressed. I've been involved with a few other traffic coops however The Downliner is a complete game changer.

So far I like to use the text ads, and with that I have consistently gotten over 50% click thru rate with over 5000-9000 views in a 24 hour time frame. Which has also resulted in a few sign-ups to my main businesses! Very impressive!

Ok, so what exactly is The Downliner other than AMAZING?

The Downliner is a traffic exchange coop that ultimately generates traffic to your websites. It is one of the latest breakthroughs in coop advertising and serves as an efficient and effective way of promoting while generating passive income for all members. It allows anyone to just add their website link with stats then receive traffic from many different sources including PTCs, Safelists, Traffic Exchanges, Classified Ads, CPC traffic as well as social media.

You can register as a free or paid member and can start using the platform immediately. You use points to purchase traffic/views to your websites and can earn points by either purchasing them, or promoting your own coop link.

When promoting your coop link you earn 1:1 which is 1 point per unique view.

As free member, you can earn 10% monthly recurring commissions per referral and if you are a paid member you can earn 30% monthly recurring commissions, when your referral upgrades. Free members can advertise 3 websites and paid members can advertise 10 websites in the campaign.

What makes this what makes this system utterly unique is that you can advertise your sites using banners, text ads (my favorite), and because we can post our sites too in Social Media. The social posts are shown on Twitter, Facebook Groups, LinkedIn, Google Plus, and Pinterest without even having an account with them!

The Downliner have an anti-cheat system that prevents users from other traffic exchanges for using auto-surf bots to gain credits and a timer set with a recurring period valid for 5 minutes wherein views from the same surfers within that time period are not counted. These ensures that your coop views are not wasted and deductions to it are coming from unique views only from traffic exchanges.

The Downliner is attractively advertising us and The TE Coop. It displays our Gravatar photo, it shows how many points we just earned by displaying the site and it persuades the viewer to sign-up to the coop and promotes his/her ad on thousands of sites daily, just like what we are doing here.

This is incredibly compelling, to earn 30% recurring commission from our referrals, and I assure you that everyone who tries The Downliner advertising would not cancel their subscription any time soon. Actually, there's no need to advertise our referral link; we only need to rotate our own co-op link!

Most members who joined find the best way to start is by adding a banner to the system then adding their own social links. Once this is done you should add the sites you wish to promote. Once approved your site will be in rotation on the network.

You have the option always to upgrade your account and we only offer 1 paid option (except for the One-Time offer). Free members receive 10% commission and Paid members receive 30%. The cost to upgrade is $9.99 per calendar month which works out as costing much less than you would pay for a monthly membership at any leading Traffic Exchange or Safelist. The price includes 6,800 shop points equivalent to 5,400 Cooperative Views or two 30 day banner or text ads and is given each month you remain active.

Start promoting your websites now in The Downliner. I assure, you'll get a compelling TE advertising and a consistent monthly recurring income.

I give this platform a solid 5 Stars
