So What’s This Guy Really Promoting?
Posted on March 24th, 2008 in General
If you're tired of refreshing this page every day like a d-bag, you should probably subscribe to the RSS feed.
It happens time and time again. Joe D-Bag decides he’s going to make an Internet Marketing blog, pretend to be some sort of guru, write a bunch of nonsense linkbait, and watch the sheep roll in and unwittingly subscribe for more nonsense. But are they really “gurus” of anything?
Or let’s say you’re getting pissed because some asshat keeps outbidding you on your highest converting search term, costing you hundreds or thousands a day in profit. Want to find out what his other sites are?
Well luckily, you know about myIPneighbors. Just put in the ip address or hostname of their site/landing page/whatever, and you can see the other sites hosted on that IP. If they’re smart like Nickycakes, and using shared hosting, you’ll end up with the hostnames for a bunch of other unrelated crap, which will probably be useless. But remember, just ’cause these super dooper affiliates claim to be making buckets of cash per day online, doesn’t mean they’re smart enough to use a separate IP for their public blog. Hell, many of them barely know how to use a computer from the looks of things.
Warning: Tangent
Nickycakes has been absolutely floored recently with the number of people making money in this business who have no experience with programming, marketing, computers, english…let alone any..language, etc. It just goes to show how easy it is to make money online. If you have half a brain in this industry, along with some php coding skills, you have an automatic head-up on the competition.
Also, it’s bad form to out the personal sites of other affiliate marketers on any public forum, so don’t do it, cause you don’t want it done to you. Keeping this information for your own personal use is more profitable anyhow ;] Anyway, enjoy the website spying tool, and keep it real.

I don’t understand how you lump in shoe with johnchow? You make yourself look pretty stupid. ShoeMoney is out there at every conference and his successes have been well documented.
Ohh thats right your one of AOJON’s sheep.

I’ve gotta say this is pretty balls… I’ve been using whois.sc but was will to [Try the Free Trial to view the complete list, or buy the one time complete list for $20.00.] to figure out the entire portfolio…

Geez I’d hate to be on your bad side cakes. Now you’ve made me post this as anonymous - I’m moving all my sites to shared hosting ASAP! I just ran that tool against the site of your public enemy #1 (you know who this post was really after cakes) and voila - 49 sites!

@rogermore: A few trips to vegas, a photoshopped adsense check, and faked auctionads stats do not a super affiliate make.
@anonymous: this wasn’t targeted at anyone, i actually just used it to check my competitions sites on a term i was bidding on and thought it was cool. my public enemy #1 is, and always will be, long lines at quiznos

And yet you continue to empower the n00b train.

@Tob
Well that’s pretty much the entire point of this site…
When I was a newb, I was stupid enough to waste an entire month reading stupid crap on digitalpoint, john chow, shoemoney, etc..and made $0 ever from any information on those sites. That’s the entire reason this blog exists, to help new people not get caught in the trap.

March 25th, 2008 at 2:30 pm

March 25th, 2008 at 5:09 pm

great blog!

There are ways to inhibit the ability of others to find all your sites if you know what you are doing. I use nice big dedi’s so this is a necessity.
Also cuts down on mass bans.

yep, like lots of ips or shared hosting for your public stuff =)
March 26th, 2008 at 8:36 am
I’ve been a long time fan of your blog/irc but this sounds like a crybaby rant.

In regard to rogermore’s comment, I must say that my son Nick has never been anyone’s sheep. Not ANYONE. Well maybe the Ninja Turtles, but that was a long time ago!
Nick’s Dad

Your Dad rocks dude.
@rogermore: Time to crawl back under the excess skin from whence you came me thinks.

This is a very cool tip, much better than whois.sc let alone that it’s free. Thanks a lot Cakes!!!
March 26th, 2008 at 2:53 pm
I laughed at ‘Joe D-Bag’ that’s classic.
Anyways - fuck the camels that seem to troll here. Don’t like cakes shit go read shoemoney the tools stuff.

Nicky, I really dont get why you are wasting link love on those guys. At least flag the damn link with a nofollow tag! :-O
I do really understand and agree with what you are saying.
I kinda feel bad for all people that promoted Agloco… ROFL

[...] same IP, it’s just a matter of time before someone uses one of the various online tools like myIpNeighbors to find them all. Spreading out your pages over several shared hosting accounts or buying a bunch [...]
