LOL. “f r e e” stuff is always my favorite. Especially when it promises to bring you piles of cash with no effort.
Its fun, 4 or 5 years ago I may have believed that things like this actually existed. Having run my own business for 3 years, I know nothing could be further from the truth. You always get paid in direct proportion to the quality/quantity of value you deliver!
nice one!
Hey Ian, ohhhhhhhhhhh it looks like exactly what I need please forward it to me, NOT!
I get inundated with such offers everyday, thank god I realized they are all scams, no magic button unfortunately.
I think I will stick to the good old fashioned way of making money online, with a little hard work.

The thing is, a lot of seemingly reputable SEO / SEM companies have equally terrible looking pages! They love different SIZED FONTS, bold, underlines, etc. Google may like these things for emphasis, but man, they’re ugly.
