It’s being pushed by heavyweights like Joel Comm today. Leung once worked for Google in the AdWords department, so that really helps his sales pitch. And the initial “report” is only $2. Is he giving away a valuable product so as to build a list of loyal fans who will buy his next report for a higher price? Almost - all that’s missing is the valuable product. His $2 “report” takes 34 pages to tell us that Adwords marketing has become more difficult lately, and to survive you more than likely need to increase your knowledge and skills in this area.
Few who heard of this report will find any use for it. As an introduction to this “Recognized expert among the top Internet Marketing gurus” (his words), I’m not inclined to buy his Adwords Heroes report, the actual report he is promoting. If this “Death of Google Adwords” is the teaser, I’ve had a good laugh for $2.
Shawn Casey is the promoter, but the responder to my queries was Eric. The offer is a link from a PR6 site (evotechnolgies.com) for only $10+
Check This Out!
I've got site with a Google Page Rank of 6.
(as you know, this is a very high rank!)
We were not doing much with the site so I
decided to turn this into an easy shot
for you to get a high-quality PR6 link
to your site!
...And unlike the people that want to charge you
$50 to $100 each and every month to get and
keep a top quality link like this, I'm not
going to do that.
...This site has 313 backlinks - including 182
in Google - so you know that the spiders are
crawling all over it and will get quickly
directed to any site that you add.
Plus, with incoming links like this, we know
that the site will stay highly regarded by
the SE's and continue to be a strong inbound
link for many years to come.
Well, the Google Toolbar gives it a PR6, as does every PageRank checking site I know of. But when I do a backlink search on Google, I see a whole bunch of sites that DO NOT link to it - you cannot find EvoTechnologies.com anywhere on the page or in the code. The backlinks are precisely the same backlinks for whenigrowup.net (which just happens to be a PR6).
Is this a Google glitch, or is it a new way to fake PageRank?
If every link sells for the maximum cost (big, underlined, in color), the most they’ll make is $4500, so I doubt Mr Casey is in on any dark practice knowingly…
…If it’s not a glitch, buying links based on PR is now much more difficult
