2007 Top 10 Worst Sites for Making Money Online
Posted on December 20th, 2007 in Affiliate Marketing, Retards
If you're tired of refreshing this page every day like a d-bag, you should probably subscribe to the RSS feed.
After much re-reading of old blogs and help from some other affiliate marketing peeps, the list has finally been completed. Nickycakes was tired of seeing all these top 10 lists of awesome stuff and decided to make a top 10 list of utter garbage. If your site is on this list, then get with the program, because you’re worthless.
Here we go:
#10 - Make Money Online With a 13 Year Old Kid
Ok, wow, great, you’re 13 and you have a website. You read every retarded thread on digital point, hacked up john chow’s theme, made it even more tacky with adsense, and added your own worthless e-book. WHO CARES. By the way, nice pic at the bottom of your page with you trying to look all serious like you actually matter. No idea how 700 odd retards actually got duped into subscribing to the RSS. Nickycakes literally tried for an hour to find a post with any useful information on this site. What did he come up with? Rehashed digital point threads. What a waste of time.
#9 - James Martell
This retard is the fat white version of john chow. Wow, how about you post some pics of cars in your header and a bunch of completely worthless words on your blog. You should be e-book ready in no time. I mean, can you seriously trust someone who’s head looks like a fat pineapple? There’s that retarded audio series you’re advertising on your blog, absolutely free of course if you subscribe to your spam list. Do you really think it’s worth it for some idiot to subscribe to your email list just so they can hear jabba the hut drone on for hours about backlink spamming?
#8 - More like $uper Worthless Blog. Nice cafepress t-shirt. Thats probably what every dude wants for christmas. Your retarded website logo on their shirt. Just another douche who likes to post a bunch of (probably fake) affiliate marketing stats but no real info on making money online. Do you honestly think that if you wear a “I <3 Affiliate Marketing” t-shirt that you will ever have a chance of…you know…reproducing with a female? Seriously dude, if you ever expect to get a girlfriend (which, from the looks of things, may not be a priority for you), then you might want to reconsider your wardrobe choices.
#7 Who is Andrew Wee? Nickycakes will tell you who Andrew Wee is. He’s the author of the 7th worst online money making site currently on the internet. Dude, seriously, stop wasting so much time making worthless podcasts about nothing. Seriously, your last podcast was to answer the question of if it’s better to be “smart or rich” in internet marketing. Wow, could you pick a more retarded topic for a podcast? Could this stupidity possibly be topped? The answer is yes, you went on to actually elaborate on such a retarded topic, and in doing so, propelled yourself to the #7 spot on this list. Congratulations, moron.
#6 - Clickbooth
As far as [allegedly] scammy affiliate networks go, these guys take the cake. Nickycakes has never seen so many complaints about a network jacking publishers’ money. What these idiots [allegedly] do is let you earn a bunch of cash for the month, and then make up a bullshit excuse about how they think you’re sending them scam traffic, refuse to pay you, keep all the commissions for themselves[again...allegedly]. This thread pretty much sums up the level of customer dissatisfaction. Anyway, there is one good thing that has come out of clickbooth this year: The most hilarious dramabomb Nickycakes has ever seen.
#5 - HaRRo’s makecash.org
The first thing that should clue anyone in about this guy’s credibility is the name. Honestly dude, what retard still does the lowercase vowels thing. It makes you look like a 13 year old wannabe HaX0R script kid from 1996. Nickycakes is kinda scared he’s going to get punted off aim now. So anyway, if you have a website called “Make Cash”, at least post some information about that instead of just putting a bunch of affiliate links and summarizing other people’s posts. The real reason this idiot made the top 10 is because earlier this year, he actually stole the public domain source code for the iPhone unlock, paid someone to reprogram it, and tried to market it as his own, even getting a mention in Forbes.
#4 - Warrior Forum
Warrior forum claims to be “The #1 Internet Marketing Forum Since 1997″. They’re certainly #1, but it’s not for good internet marketing information. This forum sells more worthless ebooks to more worthless morons than any site on the net. Nickycakes would be willing to bet that not a single person has gotten rich off the information presented on this forum. Well, with one exception: plenty of people have probably gotten rich after observing a site like this and realizing how many gullible idiots there are to market worthless products like expensive ebooks to.
#3 - Blogrush
Blogrush will go down in history as one of the biggest failures of an internet marketing idea that was promoted by so many people considered to be authorities in the industry. The idea was clearly stolen directly from AdGridwork (actually a good service). The reason it got promoted so heavy is because it was created by John Reese, some guy who think’s he’s a guru in the industry and has a ton of lackeys like john chow and shoemoney giving him bj’s all the time because they think he’s god or something. Basically the idea was, you put this obtrusive widget on your website and based on the number of impressions you get, your website shows up in the widget on other people’s site. Well everyone smart decided to game the system and iframe it, send it tons of fake impressions with proxys or whatever to get free traffic, and the entire system failed. Nobody clicks on the stupid thing and it’s pretty much the biggest waste of space ever. Anyone running the thing on their website pretty much loses 95% of their potential credibility right off the bat. Better luck next time.
2 - Digital Point could be accurately described as the largest collection of internet marketing asshats on the net. Just go check the forums out for a good laugh. In the adsense section you’ll find pages and pages of threads with titles like “I JUST HAD MY FIRST $1 DAY WITH ADSENSE, DETAILS ON HOW I DID IT INSIDE.” And the people really aren’t joking. There will be tons of replies by other equally retarded people asking how they did it, what niche they were using, things like “AWESOME WORK DUDE NOW TRY FOR $2 A DAY LOL.” The marketplace forum is full of scammers and idiots. God, the entire thing is just a big joke.
#1 - John Chow
And the #1 most worthless site for making money online is JohnChow.com. Never in Nickycakes’ entire life has he seen such idiocy. Yes, his blog is packed full of nothing. It’s literally impossible to find ANYTHING helpful on the site about making money online (which is supposed to be the topic of the blog). All he does is ask people to pay him to review their websites, and has one of his lackeys write the review. The rest of the posts are pictures of whatever garbage he had for lunch, or stupid youtube videos, car pictures, or guest posts. Some of the guest posts are the only things that could possibly be mistaken for actual online moneymaking information, but upon closer inspection, they’re absolute rubbish. Take this post for example. Arbitrage from a non-arbitrageur. Seriously, have you ever seen so much worthless information packed into one post? This guy is actually suggesting that you will be getting 1 cent clicks from facebook ads (he later changed the post in embarrassment after Nickycakes flamed his ass.) But it’s not just that the information he posts has no value, it’s that he has so many idiots following his every word. Seriously John, if you’re reading this, your blog is garbage.
December 20th, 2007 at 3:09 pm
Sphunn for many reasons, primarily a burning hatred of John Chow.
December 20th, 2007 at 3:15 pm
haha =)
December 20th, 2007 at 4:39 pm
HA! DigitalPoint #2… that’s a bit too high as far as I’m concerned.
Good post, I LOL’d.
December 20th, 2007 at 4:54 pm
This is hysterical. I love it!
December 20th, 2007 at 4:57 pm
OOh free not-nofollow links to craptacular sites
Hey you should lay off the ad hominum attacks ons #8 and #7, and address their blog and content — they stink!
December 20th, 2007 at 5:00 pm
i figured i wouldn’t nofollow it so the idiots can see the backlink in their wordpress console and come see what’s up
December 20th, 2007 at 5:23 pm
you missed the shoemonkey joke blog, but good point on john chow, dude is a total flamer.
December 20th, 2007 at 5:51 pm
Awesome post…next thing you need is a list of the top 10 douchebags that try and leverage off of the ’success’ of these douchebags. Ill start:
http://www.chowmoney.com/
I almost cried when I saw this shit…
December 20th, 2007 at 6:10 pm
I actually think DP has some quality stuff, maybe 10% useful info, you just gotta dig it.
Everything else especially John Chow’s blog is right on the fucking money….LOL
December 20th, 2007 at 6:14 pm
Not to be superficial but john chow is considered one of the uglies Asian I’ve ever seen in my entire life. I don’t see how someone with his face and chinese take out ACCENT could ever represent the Asian community as an entrepreneur.
Even that Asian dude from youtube fixed himself up after receiving his $1023902.94 check.
December 20th, 2007 at 7:09 pm
those who say Digital Point has quality stuff must be retarded.
nick I think #1 worst site should be johncow.com
stupid blog, rehashing stuffs and trying to make it funny.
December 20th, 2007 at 7:20 pm
Good thing I got out a while back…. I am sure I would have made the list… lol
December 20th, 2007 at 7:39 pm
without pointing out the names, many in the charts only “talk the talk”, not “walk the talk”.
all they talk about is money making theory!
December 20th, 2007 at 11:06 pm
Yeeeessss… I can feel the hatred within you… strike me down, and your journey toward the Dark Side will be complete…
Seriously, great post!
December 20th, 2007 at 11:31 pm
Good show… I agree 10000% You are the man. Hate to see what John Chow ate yeasterday and is shitting today.
December 21st, 2007 at 12:03 am
Agreed, ESPECIALLY on the makecash.org site… the dude is ridiculous!
December 21st, 2007 at 4:37 am
Wicked… very funny, and so true.
December 21st, 2007 at 5:16 am
Hilarious!
December 21st, 2007 at 7:20 am
lmao thats the perfect list about time someone named and shamed the stupid freaks who dont have any usefull info on making peanuts
December 21st, 2007 at 7:35 am
Hey really agree with u on this list, You must also include shitmonkey on this list.
December 21st, 2007 at 8:38 am
Hey Nick,
Thanks for the award! I’m glad I made it with the big daddies.
I’ve sphunn the post for you
December 21st, 2007 at 8:39 am
And oh. I’ll replace that picture soon enough so don’t worry.
December 21st, 2007 at 8:42 am
Although this is funny, CHow must be doing something right to make nearly $30k a month
December 21st, 2007 at 9:16 am
post this post on DP nick and watch the “$10 a day” or “my site is now PR 4″ guys burst into flame.
December 21st, 2007 at 10:15 am
Oh bless you nickycakes, bless you! I thought I was going F-ing crazy reading these garbage sites and being told how great the info was and those DP asshats patting themselves and each other on the back for making a buck a day. Was I missing something?? I epecially hate $uper Affiliate Mindset. Brags about his wonderful lifestyle and expensive clothes with out ever sharing one shred of useful advise.
Keep it up dude!
December 21st, 2007 at 10:32 am
Fuckin hilarious post. A bunch of blogs and forums of the blind leading the blind.
December 21st, 2007 at 2:47 pm
Great list. Had me laughing out loud as I approached #1. I love it when someone stands up and goes against the grain.
December 21st, 2007 at 3:36 pm
Thanks for the link Nick, and oh yeah, you’re a douche bag. A stinky used one at that. You’re only crying because you wish you were me.
Chowmoney
December 21st, 2007 at 10:09 pm
damn, dude no shoemoney. Easily top #5 worthless blog.
December 21st, 2007 at 11:22 pm
atta boy nicky, great fucking list
and you by far have the best blog goin right now
cheers
December 22nd, 2007 at 2:14 am
#7, You best not be dissing my boy An Wee. He’s just a younger, fatter, uglier version of John Chow. And when will the third Asian asshat blogger emerge?
Wee seems to spend alot of his time at Wickedfire, literally talking about nothing. Worse than anyone I’ve ever seen.
December 22nd, 2007 at 11:23 am
who the hell is chowmoney?
December 22nd, 2007 at 5:05 pm
[...] do believe I’ve found the most cynical bastard on the net. Take a look at this post, the Top 10 Worst Sites for Making Money. I don’t agree with the author on a couple of his points, but it’s still a pretty [...]
December 22nd, 2007 at 6:42 pm
Oh boy, another kickass post about retarded bloggers making big time…and how they deserved to be roasted. You should check out the top 100 or 200 list at 45n5.com and you’ll find more of them.
December 22nd, 2007 at 7:34 pm
Wow. I haven’t even heard of a few of those sites and yet I don’t think I’m missing anything =]
From what I can tell there’s way too many “make money online” or “watch me brag about how much money i (don’t) make online and try to tell you things that make you think you can do the same” blogs on the interweb.
December 22nd, 2007 at 10:25 pm
I love your candid approach; and you were “dead on” with your list. Especially your number one listing. The first time I went to that blog I was blown away at the arrogance of this f*$#ing guy! He gives ZERO value to the dumb asses who subscribe to his feed. However, I have now subscribed to your feed. Glad I came across your blog (thank you BZ).
December 22nd, 2007 at 10:36 pm
Hey niky cakes Please contact me. I just bought a killer domain name and I wanna slap dp with it. I cannot tell you what it is right now..But please email me
December 22nd, 2007 at 11:38 pm
dude my contact info is at the top of the page
December 23rd, 2007 at 3:50 am
So you’re afraid of Shoemoney? I clearly saw at least 10 people suggest him to you in the WF thread.
Pussy.
December 23rd, 2007 at 4:31 am
SuperAffiliateMindset is the worst. I followed that site for so long - until I actually tried the stuff! Anyone who recommends Napoleon Hill and visualization to help you sell stuff is a scammer.
December 23rd, 2007 at 9:53 am
@jeff. This is MY top 10, not wickedfire top 10. I think shoemoney makes shitty posts a lot, but he also makes some good ones once in a while unlike these guys, so I left him off. Just cause some homos on a forum suggested someone 10 times doesn’t mean they go on my list.
You made my top 10 flaming retards list though. Congrats, douchebag.
December 23rd, 2007 at 12:32 pm
A grown man named “nickycakes” is calling me a douchebag? Nicky…Cakes? bwahahahahahaaaaa.
December 23rd, 2007 at 5:18 pm
funny as hell post. I bet the DP guys are loving it.
December 23rd, 2007 at 5:32 pm
douchebag . . . haha
They are just jealous
December 23rd, 2007 at 8:09 pm
I laughed my ass off at the chowmoney site. Nice “top 10″ list to get traffic. However, we can’t take ourselves too seriously in this.
December 23rd, 2007 at 9:36 pm
Man you’re on fire!
December 24th, 2007 at 1:18 am
@robert: you don’t think im serious about john chow sucking? get a grip dude.
December 24th, 2007 at 5:26 am
Hey chowmoney …………id take pleasure in guttin you boy
awesome blog nicky keep it real my brother
December 24th, 2007 at 4:13 pm
Chowmoney = Face for radio…not even a mother could ever love that face.
December 24th, 2007 at 7:31 pm
LOL @ pineapple head!
December 24th, 2007 at 9:49 pm
Hahaha, I love how you said what everyone was thinking. Yeah, John Chow’s blog is crap.
One other thing that gripes me is how being a 13 year old is good in differentiating yourself. Why would you want to learn anything from someone who has so little experience?
Those 700 subscribers are morons.
December 25th, 2007 at 7:32 am
Well, I guess whatever john chow does is working for him. He does make money more than all of us here. Even if it is garbage, I am sure he has balls to say to his haters, “sucks to be you.”
December 25th, 2007 at 11:33 am
No, I don’t see him doing any such thing. I’m sure he’s read this, and you don’t see him saying that anywhere, do you? Also, there are plenty of people who read this blog who make more in 1 week than that guy makes per month with that retardfest he calls a blog. Anyway, enjoy your life at digital point and next time you want to get on your knees and give john chow a BJ, do it on his website, not this one.
December 26th, 2007 at 1:45 pm
What a reply … I Like that … awesome.
December 31st, 2007 at 3:57 am
Well, you know you’ve made it as a success when you’re #1 on someone’s hate list. But Chow is the one laughing all the way to the bank… to the tune of almost $30,000/month.
December 31st, 2007 at 8:24 am
I know countless other people who market worthless products and make more than that per month. Just because he has tons of idiots from digital point refreshing his site every day doesn’t mean his blog isn’t the worst thing since CocaCola Black.
January 4th, 2008 at 2:44 am
I never said Chow’s blog wasn’t bad. It is very thin these days when it comes to information about making money online. The point is, he’s making a better living than 95% of people in the US or Canada, whether he is selling/peddling crap or not, that’s an accomplishment.
January 7th, 2008 at 5:28 am
very interesting.
i’m adding in RSS Reader
January 17th, 2008 at 8:22 pm
[...] Finally, and most importantly (for blogs anyway) is return users and subscriptions. When a reader finds a new site, they will check it two times. The first time they check it will be when they find it in a search engine result, or recommended by a friend, or forum, or link, or whatever. The second time they come back, will be to see if there’s anything new. If there isn’t, they most likely won’t be returning again. If there IS new content, they’ll probably add it to their RSS feed reader, or bookmarks and come back often (assuming you’re not running a site full of retarded useless information). [...]
January 23rd, 2008 at 4:07 pm
I hope my blog makes your list in 2008. That means I’ve really hit the big time, although since I don’t really give a shit about my blog that will not happen. My blog is bullshit by the way. I only give the smallest hints of the ways I actually make my money. That’s key. It’s fucking hard figuring out how to make money online, it makes me giggle that people think someone is going to give away all of their secrets. I will say that I agree with you for the most part, although I think there’s some value to forums like Digital Point (mostly the buy & sell area) … To hell with it, this comment is almost as rambling and retarded as my own blog posts… THANK YOU!
February 4th, 2008 at 11:25 am
You made me laugh with this post
The 10 ten list is nicely done! My list tops these spammiest spammy sites of Super Affiliate Mindset, John Chow, the retarded DP forums and Whoisandrewlee. I haven’t visited the other sites on the list!
If you need a headache you can go visit one of these above spammy sites! There is not ONE bit of information that is useful out on these sites! Idiots!
March 6th, 2008 at 9:33 pm
[...] other affiliate marketer Nickycakes noticed there was Amit Mehta, mentioned late last year in the top 10 worst make money online sites post. Guess he was looking for new ways to promote his network of affiliate sites in the background [...]
March 15th, 2008 at 4:14 pm
Thanks for a good read … I would almost link it …
March 17th, 2008 at 4:21 pm
I never thought John Chow was important in any way. Seemed like a slacker to me from the beginning.
March 22nd, 2008 at 1:41 am
you have listed several numbers of direct approach here. To tell you the truth, I’ve bought several books on profiting from blogging but those books never told me like you’ve mentioned. Many thanks.
April 4th, 2008 at 12:14 pm
glad we didnt make the list
sphunn and stumbled
April 6th, 2008 at 2:31 pm
Damn…this was so funny! Great post man!
June 20th, 2008 at 7:05 pm
LMAO!! Awesome post, a must sphinn.
August 18th, 2008 at 6:31 pm
Fantastic post, I knew there is something wrong when you claim to make 30,000 a month and you tell us what you eat for dinner.
Also why would I ever ask a 13 year old for information on how to make money online?! When I was 13, I was busy hustling my parents for 1.50 for sweets rather than lying to 1200 subscribers…
August 21st, 2008 at 5:42 pm
Wow…the blogoshpere needs to see more posts like this!
August 22nd, 2008 at 1:47 pm
That’s so hilarious, it nearly killed me!!! Keep up the great work here you’re a genius.
August 30th, 2008 at 3:54 pm
I love smelly garlic balls. Smelly garlic balls are om nom nom.
September 6th, 2008 at 3:41 am
Great Stuff!!

November 10th, 2008 at 12:51 am
This blog Is very informative , I am really pleased to post my comment on this blog . It helped me with ocean of knowledge so I really belive you will do much better in the future . Good job web master .
December 1st, 2008 at 5:32 pm
Hillarious
January 8th, 2009 at 11:43 am
You should show up to the blog expo this year and tell them all to their face!
January 23rd, 2009 at 10:35 pm
did it occur to anyone that negative publicity serves the same purpose as publicity?
posts pointing out the worst drive traffic to very focus of the criticism.
would be better to just give lousy sites the silent treatment, remove their links, ask other sites and networks to ignore them and refuse to posts their comments completely and just wipe them gradually from the web.
if no one is talking about them, they will cease to exist
January 24th, 2009 at 10:42 pm
@aggywanda your shitty blogspot blog should have been on this list…maybe next year
January 27th, 2009 at 1:54 am
This is hilarious , I agree john chow has some good content but as far as making money online content I would rather visit escobar status blog and join his little blogring.
March 30th, 2009 at 3:28 pm
I’m a Adsense Noob and you are right, fcking idiots. You could make a top 100 list and not scratch the surface of these morons.
