Agloco Hype

Careful I tried to talk about this and got hammered for it.

I've been a member since they first started and they seem to be good I've set up a blog with some detailed information about them, who started it, what AllAdvantage used to be.

But its true you'll get paid to surf, they are still in BETA which means that no one is getting paid yet, this is just a time you can start to refer people into your network so when they release the viewbar you'll be able to earn a lot more money then if you were just starting out.

The viewbar is set to come out in early march and then a month after that we'll truly know how much money we are all going to make, some people used to make $5000 a month with AllAdvantage and so far Agloco is showing much more promise then them.

However you'll find a lot of people who hate Agloco for a various reasons mainly because of the old AllAdvantage but this is to be expected like every other company around, your not going to convince everyone in the world to sign up.

One person so far is over 20,000 sign ups and other are over 14,000, while the people who are just starting out don't have much but the rush of people hasen't came yet, well at least I don't think so.

Some estimates have been done by various members saying that everyone you sign up will give you about $30 bucks in your pocket per month but again no numbers can be trusted. If you want to find out more detailed information about Agloco and AllAdvantage check out The Revolution Explained Just Below this post.

You got hammered because you signed up to get referrals acting like you were just trying to ask questions about it. The above quote sounds like a sales letter... which then points to your referral link.

Don't play us like we don't know your intent, it's insulting and you sound like a douche.

Given the track record for these sorts of programs, I wouldn't invest much (if any) time in it. Also, you get partially paid in "stock" in the company... no thanks.

C'mon n00b. Haven't you learned YET? Here's where you tried talking about it the first time: http://www.wickedfire.com/shooting-s...ost114984.html

Well, ok, guess that first thread isn't going to stop you now, is it?

What a bunch of bullshit. You don't get PAID TO SURF. You get "credits" or as they call it "shares" which means you'll be making a lot less per hour than you think you'll be earning. We're talking fractions of a cent per hour. How much did AllAdvantage pay per hour, anyone remember? Agloco is going to be significantly less.

Sure, many people made some good money with AllAdvantage. But I also heard a TON of stories of people earning their first decent sized paychecks the month before AllAdvantage closed their doors. Thus, they never got their checks. Oh yeah, and AllAdvantage failed. Went bust. While the owners made a run for the banks. They're going to do it all over again.

Or how about because this is the same group of Stanford bushwacks who are trying to fool everyone a second time around? They are scamming 99% of the people so that the top 1% (guess who they are. Oh, that's right. The "founders") can get paid. "Oh, that makes sense. I better send out a spam that says OMG! BILL GATES SAYS HURRY AND SIGNUP TO BE ONE OF THE FIRST 1%!!!11!1" to the list of 5 million names I bought from ebay!"

Speaking of 1%.

This is what I don't get. How the FUCK does anyone make any estimates if a fucking payscale hasn't been released yet? "I estimate if you scratch your ass for an hour a day, you might possibly make an extra $10 per moth." Makes no fucking sense! Yah, no numbers can be trusted. That's because PEOPLE ARE PULLING THEM OUT OF THEIR ASS!

What happened to you pulling your sig? You said you were going to yank it: "if I wanted to promote I'd be saying hey look over here join me, but no seriously I'll even take down my signature for awhile if it makes everyone feel better."

AH, here's my big question. Are you on WF to CONTRIBUTE to the community OR PROMOTE this shit?! Wave your flag man.

Agloco Hype

First off this is FUCKING BULLSHIT, I was NOT trying to advertise for Agloco and I was NOT trying to pull some fucking link bait shit over your eyes, I simply wanted to get an honest conversation going about an affiliate program, see if anyone has signed up for it and see what they thought about it.

Yes I did go about it the wrong way with leaving my signature on but I agreed to take it down so the conversation could begin, I did so, we talked about it for awhile, tossed back some answers here and there and when the article got barried back to page 3 I put my Signature back on.

Then out of no where you all dig it back up and come after me about it again FUCK THAT, I DID NOTHING WRONG...........I simply FUCKING tried talking about an affiliate program to get some feedback, it was nothing more.

If I cannot talk about an affiliate program in an affiliate forum then WTF are you supposed to do here just call people on and say any newbie trying to join the community should be BANNED, FUCK THAT.

If Jon wants to ban me for being honest here and trying to help people as well as trying to get some honest disscussion's going then thats fine, its his choice but until then I'm not about to lay back while you say I've done something wrong when I didnt.

Dude. It's not an affiliate program. It's MLM. Flat out. You don't get paid based on how many sales are made. You don't get paid based on how many clicks are clicked. You don't get paid based on every lead you signup. You get paid if you signup friend and they signup friends. And even then it's only if they use the software on a continual basis. The amount paid is very very little.

If this is an affiliate program, then why did you choose to promote it? Because of the "unlimited potential" of having a multiple tiers (aka MULTI LEVEL) marketing tied to it? Or were you seriously going to have ads that say "Signup Today and earn $0.08 per hour!" -- no way, that doesn't sound as sexy. But "Signup a friend and ask them to signup friends and the sky is the limit" has a lot of appeal to it. It's MLM!

__________________

Agloco Hype

Ok I see your point, A lot more like MLM then an affiliate program, the words Agloco puts it into are a bit more convincing, for instance they say it is a form of multi-level marketing and your not really getting paid to surf, they say your getting paid to display the viewbar which are showing you targeted ads.

Advertisers pay Agloco to show their ads to the millions of people they can get signed up, and they then return that money to us in the form of cash and shares, the agloco staff only keeps 10% of the viewbar earnings, the rest goes to the members.

They go onto say that they reward the members more who help build the community more, another words the more people you sign up the more you'll make.

----------------------------------------------------------------

This is why I originally wanted to get this topic talked about here on wicked fire because I know there are ton's of people with a lot of valuable information and since I've heard all your stories and thoughts about this program I've shifted my focus a little bit, hell after this post just to make everyone happy I'm changing my Signature to something else and if I could I'd change my display name.

My new main thoughts about Agloco are to use them like a niche mini-site, well in my case I've already got a blog set up and is climing to the top of many keywords related to Agloco.

So if they get their 10 million members by july, 1st and my blog is well known throughout that community, more people will visit, more people will click on my Adsence and the more money I'll make.

So I'm no longer saying Agloco is going to pay, I'm not sure if they will pay but I'm turning it around so that if they don't pay I'll still be able to cash in a bit on the traffic there generating.

I can think of about a thousand other things to do with my time than waste it dicking around with Agloco.

Now you're talking like a pro! My respect for you just went up dude.

Agloco is a niche in and of itself and there are many people/sheep buying into the program for whatever reason. Market those people to your monetized website where you have ads and get paid for their clicks or through other ads or whatever, and you're no different than an owner of a content site or an arbi site. Payouts may be different than other niches, sometimes higher, or sometimes lower, but you'll still earn more than if your only goal was trying to force people to signup for a program that may or may not payout.

The irony of it is that a lot of the adsense ads on your site will be other Agloco members trying to get people to signup for Agloco. They'll probably be paying you more per click than they'll earn from each signup.

Well lets hope so, that would be a pretty good slap in the face for them but nonetheless I've been at this game for awhile, I'm still not earning enough to live from but I have found out that its better to have back-up plan's when it comes to any program like Agloco, especially with the feedback I've received from the wicked fire community.

I'm an affiliate of Cafe Press and that's another thing on the blog besides my Adsence, I'm not sure how well the whole Cafe Press thing will span out but since they are the only real thing I could find for merchandise on Agloco I thought I would give them a shot, so far I've been getting a decent click through rate but no sales yet.

I've also been thinking of better ways to convert people to buy t-shirts from them, so I could cash in on that commission, I might get around to writing a post today about how important it is to advertise offline by wearing t-shirts.

Haha, come on man. We know a thing or two about marketing to idiots.

"Oh, blah blah blah. Lets start an interesting conversation about this company (which I am promoting like a motherfucker). Oh you haven't heard of it? The pros are that you make money online just for surfing! The cons are they went out of business once... BUT... they have come back 3 times better! Oh, you say where can I sign up? Cool! check out the link in my sig!"

You are pushing this shit like crazy, you even have a free ebook about it! Gasp!

Volker's AGLOCO™ blog: AGLOCO Hype To Success eBook

"recently Adam from AglocoHype came up with the idea to publish an eBook about AGLOCO - and so he did"

Hahaha. So don't fuck around here, we know what your original intent was. If you want to make some money fucking make it, but we can smell shit from a mile away so keep it honest.

Just ban his ass already. The shit is a scam from go. I highly doubt this company will be around for very long. AllAdvantaged (or what ever the fuck their name was) failed and so with this 2.0 version. I don't care how much you polish a piece of shit. Guess what you still end up with a piece of shit. This is just a Ponzi scheme without using money but rather peoples surfing data (which we all know is also valuable).

Agloco Hype

Seriously I am trying to keep in honest here, I don't know how many times I've got to say it, I KNOW your pro's and I KNOW your not stupid, and YES I was wrong for leaving my Signature up when talking about this but It's gone for good this time I promise.

Also would you look at that.....you found my eBook on another Agloco blog, yeah I created that shit for promotional purposes, and no I've never talked about my eBook here on wicked fire. An eBook is a great way to get some viral marketing happening for my blog, which means more visitors, which means more clicks on my advertisements, which in turn means more money for me.

Seriously before I even posted this I've read the newbie warnings and I'm a consistant reader of Jon's own Super Affiliate Marketing Blog and I know where he stands on wicked fire, he created this community as a free resource for affiliate's to come together and share some valuable information.

If I'm the only person here with the balls to talk about something contraversal then so be it, I wanted to get feedback about Agloco because I like to hear both sides of the story before I completly dedicate myself to it, and if you have not read my above posts my focus has changed since I joined Agloco, my new focus is to treat them like a niche.

I've already got a blog with some alright traffic and if Agloco reach's their goal of 10 million members and my blog is really popular then guess what I've got myself into a good niche that I can make some Adsence money and some affiliate cash if there program goes to shit.

If you've read the eBook 95% of the links point to my blog, the rest point to Volkers sign up, and very few point to my Agloco sign up page, I'm in the industry of driving more traffic to my blog for increased profits, not just from AGLOCO anymore.

Finally if no one here was to talk about these programs the no one would know what all you pro's think about it and more people will be wasting there time, yeah sure they have failed in the past but look at the traffic they had in the past, can't I get in on this new traffic resource for my new niche blog?

I will say it again, my original intention not to get people from wicked fire to sign up, my original intention was to gain the feedback from the pro's and people who previously used AllAdvantage so I could better make a judgement on this.

I've got the feedback I was looking for and now I know the direction I am going with this, I'm no longer focusing more on getting people to sign up like I was in the first week that I was their member, I am now treating it like a niche, there goal is to get 10 million members by july 1st, 2007, so if I can gain a popular agloco blog before then, I'm going to be getting a large amount of FREE traffic to my blog.

This idea would not have been possible without the feedback form the wicked fire community, If I never brought this conversation up I never would have treated my blog in this manner, I would have been one of the people who are still trying to gain sign-ups.

I don't know what else I can say......If I cannot come to wicked fire to talk about good and bad programs out there on the web then why did Jon even create wicked fire, oh yeah thats right to SHARE valuable information, this thread is now filled with valuable information.

That information is in the form of look AGLOCO is a peice of SHIT company but they could very well create a good amount of traffic and if you play your cards right you could cash in on that traffic for your affiliate products and Adsence.

So again why the FUCK should I get banned from the wicked fire community when I've done nothing wrong....I try to be honest but the only responce I get from some people is just ban him....well seriously for what reason.

I'm not banning anyone, but the whole idea of this company and program is something I don't agree with at all. Didn't like it when they were AllAdvantage, don't like them now. It's a pyramid/MLM scheme type of business model and I'm just not a fan whatsoever.

Maybe you lovers of this need to read the fine print. You can't make or earn unlimited amounts, you are capped. It's a stupid waste of time, and if I'm wrong about it, so be it, but I for one will never be interested in it or promote anything as silly as this shit. It's for children and stupid people who just don't know any better.

That's my opinion on this crap.

Thanks for your input Jon and I now better understand where a lot of the pro's stand on this whole issue, it was a good learning experince nonetheless.

I never thought about banning you, just wanted to point out you're a douche

All the same, good luck climbing the pyramid.

Agloco Hype

Well all said and done I'll accept being a douche, I may have made some bad choices in the program's I join but its a continuous learning experince, I have not been at this as long as most people so I'm bound to make mistakes.

The one thing I do know is that I'll never give up, I'll fucking die before I give up trying to make a full time income online, I live in a small town where 70% of the jobs pay $8 bucks an hour, when your lucky to get full time (Full time around here is a shitty 35 hours per week so they can fuck you on benifits), and the jobs you work at for 10 years plus you'll make a mere $14 per hour.

Those are all canadian prices, This is what motivates me to keep on going, each and every day I see people struggle to make ends meet when all they do is build upon their debt, so like I said I'll take being a douche because I know one day I'll be making enough money online to support myself.

Good. Keep that attitude and you'll make it. I think it's smart to work the blog / adsense angle. You're right, these types of schemes get all hyped up and the sheeple come running resulting in free traffic for those smart enough to want to read more first.

Good luck man! I hope it works out. If you maintain a positive attitude and focus on what you can gain from Agloco's hype then I think you'll be one of the few to come out on top when they fold for the second time.

If you would have had this conversation in all those "work from home", and "work at home moms" forums you could have gotten like 5k signups. Haha

Thanks Mike, your post here today as well as the others have given me a lot of motivation to work today, It's kind of strange but both arguments and good comments give me more motivation to work on my sites.

This is very true haha, I've already noticed a lot of people targeting those types of forums and I've met a bunch of work from home mom's that have already signed up, The one thing I'm starting to notice more is that a large amount of people who sign up for Agloco have no clue how to advertise, or have no real clue about making money online.

A lot of these people didn't even know what affiliate marketing or Google Adsence was, not to mention SEO, But I think this could be turned more positively towards my blog when I write about all of the things they want to know, keeps them interested and coming back.
