Garry Frizzell's review...
This is my software review of the Keyword Researcher Pro software put out by the company clevergizmos.com marketing software based in California I believe.

I'll start off with what I don't like about this seo software.

Because it has so many features built into it, I find it to be a bit on the clunky side, meaning that you'll have to invest some time into learning how to use it.

This really isn't a negative thing, it just has a learning curve if you want to maximize it's potential. It comes with video lessons and an instruction manual, so you'll need to invest a few hours into learning how it works.

What I like the most about this keyword discover tool is the ability to create and deploy keyword-optimized content quickly.

It's built in module to write keyword-optimized information articles is a god send to me because everything is all in one place ready to use.

Having a content strategy for search engine optimization is a must and having a piece of software that speeds up and maximizes your time is going to be a perfect addition to your marketing toolkit.

Putting Keyword Researcher Pro software to work to discover high-value long-tail keywords from Google autocomplete, organize CSV files from the Google Keyword Planner, and write seo-optimized articles for your website just makes financial sense.

I love software and I'm investing it it all the time because at the end of the day it makes me money and saves me valuable time.

Put this software to work in your online business and reap the benefits.

Bert Jensen's review...
My experience with the program so far

Embarking on the SendShark.com journey has been akin to discovering a secret weapon in the realm of email marketing. Initially drawn by the bold promise of handling a list of 50,000 subscribers for a mere $25.00 per month, I was curious yet skeptical. How could such an affordable service deliver where many others, often at a higher cost, had fallen short?

The experience, however, has been nothing short of revelatory. From the moment I started, the process of setting up campaigns to reaching out to a vast audience has been streamlined and efficacious, transforming my approach to digital communication.

What I Like

Unparalleled Subscriber Management: The ability to manage a colossal list of 50,000 subscribers without additional costs is a game-changer. This feature alone elevates SendShark from a mere service provider to a strategic partner in my marketing endeavors.

Integrated Page Builder: The integrated page builder is a masterstroke, blending ease of use with powerful design capabilities. It has empowered me to create landing pages that not only capture attention but also encapsulate the essence of my brand.

Deliverability and Insightful Analytics: SendShark excels in ensuring that my emails reach their intended inboxes, backed by analytics that offer deep insights into campaign performance. This has been instrumental in refining my strategies for better engagement.

Robust Security and Support: The commitment to security and privacy is evident, providing peace of mind in today's digital landscape. Moreover, the responsive and knowledgeable support team has made navigating any challenges a breeze.

What I Dislike

While my experience has largely been positive, no service is without its drawbacks. However, in the case of SendShark, these are far outweighed by the benefits. If pressed, I would desire even more customization options for the page builder to unleash full creative freedom, although what's available is already top-notch.

Final Verdict

SendShark.com stands as a titan in the email marketing field, shattering preconceived notions of what an affordable service can achieve. It's not just the cost or the features that make it stand out but the holistic approach to empowering users. Whether it's the expansive subscriber management, the ingenious page builder, the precision of deliverability, or the unwavering support and security, SendShark delivers on its promises and then some. For anyone looking to elevate their email marketing game, SendShark is not just a wise choice; it's an essential one. It's a testament to what's possible when a service truly understands and caters to the needs of digital marketers in the modern age.

Scott Dubois's review...
My experience with the program so far

Hello and welcome to my review on GetResponse. Before I start this review I would like to say that this in the future will not be my main autoresponder if you go to my other reviews and check out my review on my other favourite autoresponder you can check it out. The other autoresponder I like is called SendShark and will be my main autoresponder in the future.

GetResponse has been an amazing autoresponder. I have had an amazing run with it. I would have to say that GetResponse and Aweber are the top autoresponders (Up until I found out about SendShark) in the Affiliate world.

The autoresponder is easy to use and easy to set up your account once you are on the inside. The system has normal features that every autoresponder has.

Forms to create HTML codes for your capture pages on other sites like LeadsLeap, It has your broadcasts, the autoresponder campaigns, it has a capture page and landing page builder, easy setup of different lists and an easy-to-see and use contacts list.

One additional feature I like about GetResponse in the contact list area is the ability to see how engaged your clients are.

Getresponse has a 5-bar system to show how engaged each client is bar 1 is not engaged at all.

Bar 2: Is at risk of going to bar 1

Bar 3: Is Neutral engagement

Bar 4: is Engaged

Bar 5: Is highly engaged,

Now I like this system better than other autoresponders because it is easier to see how engaged these people are. This makes it easier to Clean Your List! As I have stated in previous reviews Cleaning Your List Is like taking your dirty laundry to the laundromat or your own washing machine. Simply if you don't work on your list and don't "wash your Laundry" Your list will get dirty and it will affect your open rates and so on. It is extremely, EXTREMELY, important that you clean your list now and again.

After meeting so many of the higher marketers in our industry and speaking with them, like John Thornhill, Igor Kheifets, James Neville-Taylor, Dean Holland and many others they always say CLEAN YOUR LIST.

GetResponse does make this easy with their bar system which shows how engaged the client is. The unfortunate part is this is not like looking forward to clean laundry though... Sometimes it is sad to see clients go and sometimes I have to remind myself as sad as it is I have to do what is best for business and get rid of the unengaged people who are bogging down my open rates. I am seeing darn near 60% open rates because I clean my list regularly. I usually wait a month but no more than a month because a certain newsletter might bring them back which I have had happen. My mentor Igor Kheifets when he was teaching me said something in his training about "Resurrecting the list" and I have done that with certain campaigns not so much the list itself but more so with clients who went dormant.

Anyway, enough rambling on about that. This feature is truly amazing and easier than other autoresponders.

I also like their easy-to-use save-a-template feature.

Ever get sick of making an email and having to add your business logo maybe even your picture and a few other things every single time to every new email you write? I do too. They have a very easy-to-use save-a-template feature where you can keep a template you've made for the future. For instance, my current template is...

Logo

Body

selfie of myself

and then my whole body is preformatted to the regular 18 pt font and Georgia text which is a normal setup for emails in email marketing.

I know its a very short description of my template but really the only thing changing in that each time is the body of my email the rest of the template never really changes.

All in all GetResponse has been a really amazing autoresponder but of course, is no longer my top recommendation (As I said above see my review on Sendshark) GetResponse also has automation and stuff which the SendShark autoresponder lacks.

I don't really ever use automation very much anyway so really for what I use GetResponse for, Sendshark gives me the same.

What I Like

  • I like the easy-to-use autoresponder. It is very simple and one of the top autoresponders and can honestly say it is probably even better than Aweber in some aspects
  • I like the save-a-template feature as it is very simple to save a template with the normal setup you always use for emails
  • I like the engaged bar feature as I mentioned above it is really easy to see who is and is not engaged on your list with this feature.
  • I like how easy it is to set up emails with a few clicks of a button you can have an email setup in seconds
  • I like that GetResponse seems like one of the more professional autoresponders. I am all about being professional so when I see a tool that reflects that I really like it as I was brought up being taught about business and professionalism.

What I Dislike

Usually, I don't have complaints about systems that I thoroughly enjoy but this one on the other hand I do have a couple of dislikes.

  • Price- The price can be steep as I am paying 30 dollars a month right now for 2500 subscribers and that is not horribly bad but when you go past 2500 the price can go up from there. In my review on SendShark, I talk about the price for that autoresponder for 50,000 subscribers it is 25.00 a month or 300 for a year and when you get up to 50,000 subscribers with this one it is 245 dollars a month or 2940 dollars a year... Yea, that's going to be steep especially when I plan to take this Affiliate Marketing straight to the top and hope to have a huge list someday...
  • TOO PICKY... Sometimes when trying to import your subscribers from other lists on other autoresponders you own when those subscribers have opted into your list they don't like you importing them and will reject the import... Do it enough times and GetResponse will just bring down what I like to call "The Ban Hammer" I have never been banned by them but this makes it hard to switch over to them with a list from another autoresponder because they are too picky. I once tried to bring over a list from a different autoresponder because I was trying to get rid of it and they rejected it. They were prequalified leads but they wouldn't allow it...
  • Last dislike... They will take away campaigns and stuff if you knock back your subscription... Yup if you ever downgrade I got told that it will erase my work if I downgrade... That is sort of a kick in the pants considering that you did all that work into building those campaigns and they don't let you keep them there if you downgrade...

Final Verdict

My final verdict is I still think eventhough I had 3 dislikes about GetResponse that it is still worth it to the right person. If you don't care about the above dislikes and care to have a very professional autoresponder then GetResponse is for you. They are really amazing and really simple to use.

I said above that they are probably better than Aweber. I have had many issues with Aweber that I haven't had with GetResponse.

They are a great Autoresponder and I do stand behind them despite the dislikes. It was the very first autoresponder I started with and I have been really amazed.

I hope you enjoyed reading my review on GetResponse and I hope I have helped you make an informed decision on whether or not to go with GetResponse! Thanks for reading and I will catch you the next time.

Herbert Flores's review...
My experience with Minute Hook so far has been incredibly a game-changer! Not only does it provide me with valuable insights into my blog's performance, but it also helps me track conversions effortlessly. The setup process is a breeze, and within minutes, I had a beautifully crafted campaign running on my site. The animated call-to-action buttons are just the icing on the cake! Just got 78 views and 2 new subscribers in 24 hours after setting up!

Minute Hook, a powerful WordPress plugin and traffic generation system created by Cindy Donovan, promises to make building your email list a breeze. This beginner-friendly tool focuses on ease of use, with pre-built funnels, customizable popups, and automated email sequences all designed to streamline the process. Minute Hook goes beyond basic plugins by offering complete, branded funnels with high-quality lead magnets and targeted email sequences, eliminating the need for extensive content creation on your part. Even those without a blog can get started with Minute Hook's standalone funnels.

What I Like

Minute Hook shines in its user-friendliness. The included setup wizard walks you through the process, with pre-populated content for easy customization. The variety of features is impressive, including AI-powered newsletter creation, monetization options, and integration with popular autoresponders. The 30-day money-back guarantee provides a safety net for those hesitant to try a new tool.

What I Dislike

While Minute Hook offers a fantastic set of features, it's worth noting two limitations. First, the font used in automatically generated PDFs is currently Times New Roman and cannot be changed during campaign creation. This may limit some users' ability to perfectly match their brand's aesthetics. Second, there's no back button during campaign creation. This means you'll need to be careful to avoid mistakes, as editing requires starting over from the previous step. However, the convenience of the system likely outweighs these limitations for many users.

Final Verdict

Minute Hook offers a compelling all-in-one solution for bloggers and online entrepreneurs seeking to build their email lists and online presence. The core WordPress plugin allows you to easily convert your blog posts into lead magnets, while the included FunnelMates membership provides access to five pre-built, automated funnels and newsletters – perfect for beginners or those without a blog. These funnels cover popular niches like affiliate marketing and social media marketing, giving you a jumpstart on building your audience.

Beyond the core features, Minute Hook provides a wealth of additional benefits. The included training zone equips you with the knowledge to maximize your results, while bonus features like the popup generator and content locker module offer even more tools to capture leads and engage your audience. While the aesthetics of the automatically generated PDFs might be limited, the convenience and comprehensiveness of Minute Hook make it an attractive option for many users.

Here's a breakdown of what you get with Minute Hook:

Minute Hook WordPress Plugin: Effortlessly transform your blog posts into lead magnets and leverage their content distribution network for increased exposure.

FunnelMates Membership: Access five pre-built funnels and newsletters, complete with lead magnets, email sequences, and targeted promotions – all managed for you after a one-minute setup.

Automated Workflows: Save time with automated lead capture, email marketing, and content delivery.

DFY Weekly Content: Receive 12 months of fresh, curated newsletter content tailored to the five included niches.

In-Depth Training: Master Minute Hook with comprehensive training covering both basic and advanced strategies.

Bonus Features: Enhance your lead capture with popup generators, content lockers, and a smart 404 error page capture system.

If you're looking for a user-friendly and comprehensive system to build your email list and online presence, Minute Hook is definitely worth considering.

Till Geissinger's review...
My experience with the program so far

LiveGood is a really solid Network-Marketing-Affiliate-Program with great products (high-quality nutritional supplements), weekly Live-Webinars and a top Management -Team with lots of experience in the field of marketing and product distribution.

The products are highest quality and really affordable compared to competitor products, and the website and marketing materials perform really well.

What I Like

Getting started was easy and smooth for me, my emails - whenever I needed help - were answered straight away, and payments - at least up till now - came always through as promised.

What I Dislike

The company used to promise thousands of dollars of passive income only by joining and hoping for Spillover from your Upline. Meaning that you would reach passive income without ever lifting a finger.

That - of course - can happen, but I think you have to be very lucky and you should not count on it.

Final Verdict

Good, rock-solide opportunity with really small start-up costs, high-quality and in-demand products that will be here for a long time and can generate you a really solide residual income, if you are willing to do something for it.

Frank Hudacek's review...
My experience with the program so far

I joined the Home Business Academy Affiliate Program about 18 months ago and it has been one of the best choices I have had with any affiliate program. Being an online marketer for 15 years, after investing considerable amount of funds in various other programs, early-on, I find the HBA has just about everything an online beginner to the experienced marketer will need.

The co-founders and support staff are very helpful, responsive, knowledge-based and professional. They take the time to answer the questions or concerns the affiliates may have. Real people, faces and voices, there to answer questions.

What I Like

The commission structure is one of the best offered in this online space, and paid weekly. This residual income is paid month after month for as long as your signup remains a member. The HBA program has provided the right platform to steadily grow my online business.

What I like is there is not any real selling involved. With the HBA I can offer this affordable program even when someone might say 'No' to my original, other product or program offer.

The HBA platform can be used for online and offline businesses. You can build funnels, pages, merchant sites, community programs, and more, and market them across any market location.

What I Dislike

There's nothing I dislike about The Home Business Academy. Being experienced the start up was quick, the online help and videos are clear walk-you-thru, A-Z.

For the newbie the amount of information could be overwhelming at first, but the Monday thru Friday live online sessions, the Q&A, the over-the-shoulder instruction, should not leave anyone with a feeling of being 'lost'.

Final Verdict

The Home Business Academy is an excellent resource for entrepreneurs of all levels. It's affordable, reasonably priced, and stays current on what changes are happening in the market.

The HBA has 11 live events Monday thru Friday, available for replay. Many are over-the-shoulder training by the co-founders and other successful affiliates of the HBA.

Whether you're interested in starting up a home business from scratch or refining your existing small business model, the HBA can give you the resources and advice you need to succeed and grow

Furthermore, their generous monetary support of an international program to feed starving children is an important part of the heart-felt center of the company and affiliate community.

I would recommend this program to anyone looking with a desire to grow and take their business to basic or highly, experienced levels.
