I originally signed up for one of the review copies, but timing was such that I ended up doing a full price version that he put in the first post.
Although a little bit of a prick on the boards (which actually can be a positive here) Jest did what he said. This is one of the fastest dudes I have seen doing this type of thing.
He had the pages up in 48 hours, I clarified one thing with him that I think his submitter forgot, and he fixed it within 2 hours.
I was a little concerned since there was all the drama in his
google thread, but Jest no shit did what he said he was going to do.
To summarize:
Positives:
Fast
Friendly and responsive when you're a customer
Solid content and links
Possible drawbacks:
Would like to see more and varied bookmarks - possible footprint there...Jest might want to get some accounts at some of the larger sites (or not - just my .02).
would like to see varied anchors and/or URLs available
That said, I have seen a lift in the target phrases, but will track to see if it's sugar rush or if it sticks. I am thinking it will stick since the content was something I had ignored for a long time.
Bottom Line:
If you want a good volume of content posted smartly across the interwebs in 48 hours linking back to your site - this is your guy.
