Regards, Rob Luke,

Things are going to get interesting for some of the bigger offers out there. -Luke I just sent an email to my Clickbank rep about some of the issues with the testimonials etc. I will keep you all updated once I get more information.

Clickbank has been plagued with review sites that pose as legitimate consumers without any sort of financial interest in which product is purchased (when of course the reviewer does have a financial interest in which product is purchased). I think this is something that can be handled easily with a little creativity, but of course, talk to to Clickbank for full details of what they are looking for from affiliates.

Just wondering. What about a review site that honestly reviews both products (by having used them first-hand) and then recommends one over the other or leaves the final opinion with the reader and offers both products? Or simply a comparison of features. I am new to all of this, so the new rules do not bother me - to me they are just the rules. I just hope they don't go to the extreme and make it difficult to sell, or buy confidently. I agree with you. Just wondering.

]]> Comment on How to Benefit When Someone Scrapes Your Content by RichardFarley http://www.everstatus.com/07/09/how-to-benefit-when-someone-scrapes-your-content/#comment-385 RichardFarley Sat, 09 Jul 2011 21:17:12 +0000 http://www.everstatus.com/?p=443#comment-385 I always thought having an RSS feed was the equivalent of saying it was okay with you for others to post your content (if not, why is it called "syndication" ?; see http://www.businessdictionary.com/definition/syndication.html). As for your solution, yes, most scrapers won't remove the link because they don't use the best tools, but there are tools out there that will remove it. Also, your remark about thieves being lazy, while I'd like to believe that, I'm not sure it's true. From what I've been able to observe such folks sometimes work awfully hard to avoid hard work, as counter-intuitive as that sounds. Some of them are also plenty smart enough that they could make just as much money using their smarts legitimately. I think the notion of getting away with something must just be something that appeals to some people.
