CONSUMER WARNING: Monster Clicks/Backlinks Creator (AVOID It- We Tested…)
- 36 Comment
Damian Leon, YOUR Internet Success Guide
This is a Consumer Alert. I Take Your Livelihood very seriously, and I know what your money means to you.
You may or may not know but “backlinks” are what tell Google that your site is a popular site on the Internet, and allows you to get high rankings for sites you promote.
Backlinks are like other sites referring to your site. Kind of like recommendations, from a friend. The more sites that recommend your site, the better.
More “Reputable sites” like Youtube, Facebook, CNN.com, etc – that recommend your site, count for more- that’s called PR (Page Rank), Much like a very reputable friend recommending a good restaurant to you…
Without going into a million details, let me tell you that Backlinks are what you want when you want to get your sites to the top of Google…
OK that being said, we of course wanted more backlinks for some of our sites, to get to the top in Google for various terms…
So, when I saw a service called “MONSTER CLICKS” http://backlinks.monsterclicks.com/ - I naturally wanted to check it out.
(Hint: Everything You Read on the “Warrior Forum” is NOT Accurate or In Your Best Interest…)
It promised for around $70 a month, 3,000 backlinks, which is quite a lot of backlinks, and would be weeks of solid work normally.
So we tested it out in a controlled test.
Here are the Results and I Am Advising You Strongly To AVOID this site and paying for this thing… :
- The Sites its posting your link to are mostly in Poland, Russia, Germany, and they ARE NOT RELEVANT To Internet Marketing or any common Niche…
- This Causes Google to PUNISH YOU- In fact it DERANKED OUR SITE- (It was number 15 for a competitive term, now it is totally deranked for that term)
- Most of the Sites Its Posting Your Link To, Are PR Zero *So Basically Worthless…
- It can UNDO Work You’ve Done on SEO and the Like – Thankfully I knew just to use it on One Keyword and One Site As a Test
- We Spent $140 over two months for the service, plus staff time to test It…
SO LONG STORY SHORT- AVOID THIS SERVICE. IT IS COUNTERPRODUCTIVE AND WILL COST YOU MONEY, WITH NEGATIVE RESULTS…
On Your Side!
Damian

I have always been suspicious about these companies and or software programs that can give you backlinks and who wants backlinks that are not even related to your niche or will eventually get your site banned or devalued and you just end up with all your hard work down the tube.

Hi Damian
Thanks for this great info.
I always thought backlinks ought to reflect the real content others want to make known to others!!It is great to know that you took the time to make us aware of someone simply wanting to water that down to more meaningless marketing muck.
Again, many thanks
Cheers

A big thankyou for that. I am a sucker for buying stuff off the warrior forum. I have been around long enough to know all that glitters may not be gold, but its easy to fall for good copy.
So thanks for the warning.Andy Beveridge

Thanks Damian for the warning. Also, the heads up about Warrior Forum. For a relative newbie like me…you have a tendency to believe everything you read on the Warrior Forum is a good thing….
I guess it needs to be treated like everything else…with a discerning mind.
You are always so helpful! (and genuine)

I was checking out their site and it looked nice and very professional. However, I beleive their home page is PR0 so I thought that was strange for a website that specializes in backlinks. I searched on any reviews and found this one. So, thanks for sharing your experience!

Great info. I’m not sure if this is the same as Monster Backlinks, but sounds like the same premise. Good to know I need to avoid them. I have a quick question for you. You mentioned that you were ranked 15 for a certain keyword and then you got deranked. I was on the 1st page for one of my keywords and now I have vanished. Will I pop back up on the 1st page or could I have been deranked and if so what do I do to fix it? I haven’t used any link building services so I’m not sure why I would have been deranked. Help, very frustrated.
Thanks for your help.January 18th, 2012 at 6:59 pm -

Warning labels on products always seem so direct. They are written in capital letters, usually have an urgent-looking symbol, and, put simply, sound like they are ordering us around. But are we actually bound by law to follow these warning labels (knowing full well that we, the consumers, accept all risk without the possibility of a legal action against the company), or are they merely a suggestion?

Non e8 legale, no. Ogni opera dell’ingegno -tra cui le foto- ha seprme un autore.Va anche detto che moltissime immagini rimbalzano da un blog all’altro, da un sito all’altro, da una parte all’altra del globo, e in fin dei conti diventa davvero impossibile risalire in tempi brevi al reale titolare del copyright. In questo caso si ipotizza che Internet ne assuma la propriete0 a titolo originario.Detto questo e8 innegabile che una certa parte di giornalismo della carta stampata, oltremodo reazionaria, consideri ancora Internet come medium di serie B. Carino quel tavolino Grazie, l’ho trovato nella spazzatura .
