How Did You Find Out About WickedFire? - WickedFire - Affiliate Marketing Forum

Jon · 05-10-2007, 08:24 PM

Just trying to get a better idea for a new marketing campaign.. So tell us, How and/or Where did you hear about us? Pick an answer from the poll, and reply back with as much detail as possible (for you older members, try and remember that far back..). But try and leave your tranny stories out of it.

Ataraxy · 05-10-2007, 08:29 PM

I was on syndk8 and there was a thread regarding mortgage leads. Jon responded to it and I looked at his info which had a link to this forum on it.

Been hooked ever since.

hijinks · 05-10-2007, 08:31 PM

I think I was searching Google for Adsense Arbitrage info and came across this forum. I've been hooked ever since too! I don't post much but I am here daily.

droolingmnky · 05-10-2007, 08:33 PM

I heard WickedFire get mentioned on NetIncome.

WickedFire is one of the best things I've found on the net, next to bittorrent and porn.

LazyD · 05-10-2007, 08:45 PM

Someone said something about WickedFire on DigitalPoint(scary, I know)...

Read the forums a couple times before joining and have been hitting the refresh button ever since...

Wasted no time with that one eh? I was wondering how long it would take someone to pull that stupid joke!

TylerL · 05-10-2007, 08:57 PM

I don't like Jon, but since the poll lacks an "I found WickedFire through some douche named Jon" option, I answered friend. Don't get the wrong idea.

I found WF after doing a few design jobs for Jon.

barman · 05-10-2007, 08:59 PM

Another forum... It may have been youngentreprenuer or something. Thank god I found this one though, cause that place was a piece of shit.

Actually now I remember that the first time I heard about Jon was that thread where he posted his 80K CJ check or whatever. Than a few months later i put 2 and 2 together

CorrectAD · 05-10-2007, 09:00 PM

I was at ad-tech in SF in april as an interviewer. Was researching a few networks when I got back home and found AMs that had profiles here.

I thought the forum was just another Faggoty black background forum, but after reading the e-book shit on aojon.com and seeing other people bitch about the owner, I knew I was home.

Can't wait to meet some of you at ASE.

I was looking at my log files and seem someone slagging off one of my sites ( I still have not addmited I own it

JamesH · 05-10-2007, 09:09 PM

Someone MSN'd me wanting me to sign up for them as a referral for a contest. Then the whole Earners Forum vs. Wicked Fire topic came up at various forums and I decided to actually check this place out. Just lurked around for awhile, then finally I started to participate.

pocketrockets · 05-10-2007, 09:29 PM

I found out about WF after your famous post over at Sitepoint.

babyboy808 · 05-10-2007, 09:54 PM

Suckpoint...

Laura · 05-10-2007, 10:06 PM

Man, it was a forum at some point back when it launched, but I have no clue which, to be honest. I didn't stay long for whatever reason.

Laura

B7x0 · 05-11-2007, 12:40 AM

In an IRC network [DALnet to be exact]. A friend was talking about making $500 while sleeping. I asked him about it, and he showed me WickedFire.

avantrosa · 05-11-2007, 12:43 AM

You ranked first when I searched Google.

jayson_co · 05-11-2007, 12:53 AM

The blog of someone who has been recently banned here

jerxs · 05-11-2007, 01:09 AM

was reading your blog every now and then before you actually launched WF. I liked the idea that I would be able to speak freely without being banned or blacklisted, so I joined.

DruSam · 05-11-2007, 01:13 AM

I believe it was from Jon's signature on Sitepoint ( he was known as Mook-Jon back then.)

edit: nevermind, it was jon's blog that was in his sitepoint signature. I heard about wickedfire through his blog.

lucab · 05-11-2007, 01:21 AM

twoplustwo.com, a poker forum

Mike · 05-11-2007, 01:25 AM

I was searching for SEO related blogs (other than Pork Chop's - think hard) and found Jon's blog.

awesty · 05-11-2007, 01:38 AM

In one of the articles on dosh dosh it listed a heap of forums and I liked the looked of WF so I clicked.

DaveNL · 05-11-2007, 01:54 AM

I saw a post on syndk8 came here to check out if it was such a gay forum as DP, witch it is not

on a other blog aojon.com was mentioned,i came over to check it out,and from there i found wickedfire.And i am very glad i did

DirtyB · 05-11-2007, 05:24 AM

From another blog. I don't remember what's her blog name is, but she praised a lot about WF and the wealth of information here. Curious to find out, I landed here. Never looked back since.

BrianL · 05-11-2007, 05:37 AM

Ended up on Jon's blog somehow. Pretty sure a search landed me on this page - Super Affiliate Marketing Blog » 25 Random Niches For All!

Catt · 05-11-2007, 09:30 AM

Someone in a forum (adwordmentor) referred me to Jon's blog which I subsequently visited and then found WickedFire. I unsubscribed from the former immediately, (in it's defence I learnt a lot about PPC there but it had become very boring and the owners hardly ever contributed).

However, I have kicked myself for not discovering WF earlier - would have helped the learning curve no end, not to mention the laughs.

Uzzz · 05-11-2007, 10:44 AM

google web design > sitepoint > Jon's Blog > WF

bubbles · 05-11-2007, 10:47 AM

I found it from SEO Black Hat: SEO Blog... You wrote a review of his private forum or something...

Reefer420 · 05-11-2007, 11:10 AM

Google searching for 'how to make money online'...

Was trying to do some drop shipping stuff and domaining, but really had no clue what I was doing...I had no idea about aff or arb or adsense or pretty much anything else before I came here- I can't believe how much I've learned since joining, every other place I've looked at pretty much sucks other than the blogs (Bluehatseo) and other resources I link to from here...

I have so many bookmarks now I have no idea if I will ever get to look at them all.

I think I was searching Yahoo or Google for Arbitrage info and came across this forum.

geofferson · 05-11-2007, 04:30 PM

I think it was chickenhole who told me to check it out, or else he'll kick me in the nutz

dekalog6 · 05-11-2007, 06:02 PM

Found WF through seoblackhat.com. The initial arbi posts had me hooked.

chatmasta · 05-11-2007, 09:01 PM

Someone posted on DP about WF being sold for $16m. LOL remember that?

And I recognized Jon from SP and figured it must be a cool place...

Juicify · 05-11-2007, 09:17 PM

It was that famous mook jon thread at sp, and I dont even know how I found that thread because I never hang around there, it was just pure luck

. I think you posted about aojon there, anyway I found aojon.com from there somehow and then you had like a hidden link furthest down the sidemenu to wickedfire.

fenryr · 05-12-2007, 07:20 AM

mmh i cannot remember... but i'm glad i found it, it's the only forum, besides gfy, that i visit daily

Dar · 05-12-2007, 07:27 AM

ImagesAndWords · 05-12-2007, 08:57 AM

Sitepoint for me too...

LazyHippy · 05-12-2007, 01:07 PM

I think it was from a random Google search - but can't really remember! Only a couple of months ago - fuck my memory is bad!

vitalfire · 05-12-2007, 02:07 PM

i read on some forum that there was a forum that was worth millions of dollars but the owner wouldnt sell it. That caught my attention and i came here to see what the fuss was about.

cwclem34 · 05-12-2007, 02:24 PM
