Joy Healey's review...
Update March 2024

Just been reviewing my reviews at LeadsLeap :-)

Some I have deleted as they didn't stand the test of time, but The Downliner is still firmly on my favourites list. Sending me traffic (especially from the Social Posts). Just this morning I had a renewal commission from a long term customer, so he is presumably as impressed as I am.

My experience with the program so far


I first joined this program three years ago, then left it while I had a break from online business, but I always remembered it fondly.

So when I came back online and was reminded of it, I was pleased to restart my paid membership, and, within my first month, someone who found a site I'm advertising on The Downliner joined my business. That's more than covered the cost of my first month's membership.

Within my own contacts I have recruited two TDL team members who have been equally impressed with the site, Both have upgraded too, and stayed long term members. My commission was registered promptly (can be withdrawn when it reaches $20), although I tend to use it to buy further advertising. I found several 'free' members too, but it's not uncommon that T/E members stay free.

What I Like

  • There are 3 levels of membership, one is free and the other two are extremely good value.
  • Free members can earn from their referrals
  • There's a low ($20) threshold to withdraw your commissions by PayPal or Payza
  • You're only 'charged for' unique views, other views are classed as Free Views.
  • There's a lot to get my head round, but within the site dashboard another member has provided an extremely helpful explanatory video
  • Support is excellent, I even had prompt answers over the weekend
  • Paid members TDL can join the 'TDL Machine' which gives access to All In One Profits, a complete suite of business tools with plans starting at just $10 a month and paying an amazing $10 a month commission (even more for the higher plan levels). The TDL Machine will find you 6 paying members to get your AIOP business off to a flying start. I didn't join this as I already have an auto-responder, but for anyone with no a/r this would be a great benefit.
  • The TDL detailed stats show where my link is being seen and how long visitors stay on my site
  • You can earn 'shop points' to use in your own promotions, by promoting a co-op link
  • Otherwise you can buy 'shop points' at an extremely low cost, or by upgrading
  • You can 'win' points with a daily wheel spin, and I win regularly - maybe 75% of the time.
  • You can also earn points by clicking on solo-ads that come to my in-box, clearly labelled.
  • Traffic is coming from a vast array of sources including PTCs, Safelists, Traffic Exchanges, Classified Ads, CPC traffic and well as social media I received thousands of clicks in just a few days for 5 minutes 'work' placing my social media post link on the TDL ads section.
  • Most important of all, my links are being rotated on more traffic exchanges than I've even heard of. There's no way I could cover afford the time or money to promote on all those sites personally.

What I Dislike

I wish there was a way that I could target specific countries, but nothing else.

Final Verdict

Advertising on the Downliner is saving me a ton of time and money while building my list, and - most important of all - I know it's genuine traffic because I have already had an email exchange with a lead who took a paid upgrade.

Highly recommended.

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

Hello and welcome to my review of Cliqly. I would like to start out by saying I am simply writing this review to inform you and warn you about this company as they started out great and I did make profit but certain things have happened in between being good and now being a company that I am thinking of starting a lawsuit against... Let's get to it.

My experience with the system had been great right up until the fall when things fell apart MAJORLY...

I had been paid up to 3000.00 or more in commissions at this point and had been making profit. To those who say it isnt possible it is you just need to know how to spend smart and not buy the sales and know how to outweigh prices like you would do when you go to a grocery store and outweigh a sale price with another item that is possibly cheaper or whatever.

Cliqly was a system where you could build a business the right way... Or at least thats how it seemed. I did start to build a very good business was tier 5 and had 162,000+ on my list. I had got paid up until the fall and I had not got my October payment. This was my own fault because my bank gave me the wrong information and I missed my payment due to this...

November I had been given my November payment and had made quite a bit while winning a contest and then came December and January. I didn't get those payments... Now being owed 1000 dollars more I have simply stopped with this company and have talked to support about such things as my payments are missing and furthermore telling them to cancel myinboxpro WHICH they still haven't done and I am still getting charged every month...

See why I am phoning lawyers?

What I Like

Well I did like the simplicity of the system, how easy it was to build your list and how easy it was to email them every day... I did like getting 1-2 payments a month and it was a nice passive income for my business...

What I Dislike

Up above I explained about how I have not been paid 3 payments now and they keep charging myinboxpro and wont refund or stop the payments.

They claim that they don't have enough staff to deal with an "Influx" That happened last year around April and kept going up every month since... Though this could be true and this influx could have screwed up the system as they claimed that a lot of the new members were putting in the wrong bank information (which again I could see as this would create back logs that would jam the system) and they don't have the payment staff to back pay people which they are "Looking" For new staff, it has still created QUITE a strain on the good system they had...

CEO Bobby Jones keeps saying that they will have everything in working order soon but they have been saying this since November and I held onto that promise as I had been paid in the past but still have not seen ANY of my 3 payments paid to my account especially when I am still within my first year and a half of marketing and still need that money to back my business...

I have threatened them with lawsuits and many other things as well as trying to be nice in emails and have not received anything. The support staff don't answer anymore.

Final Verdict

My final verdict is If you want to chance this system then go for it but my true 100% Advice is stay away from Cliqly as it has gone way downhill... People hve been walking away way too much and I hope that you can heed my warning as I do not trust them anymore...

Bobby keeps saying they are working on it but I don't feel these problems should persist more than a month. Staff are easy to find, System problems are easy to fix (I have my own website that I have had to work on and mind you its not as big as cliqly but my website took 2 days to fix without any tech staff when I had issues... ), and payments should be handed out more often if they are behind...

Either way I hope this warning will help you see that this system is not worth the trouble. Take it from someone (Me) Who is going through calling lawyers and news systems to take them down as they should not be allowed to harm people especially when we are trying to get financially free and they seem to be harming peoples funds now...

Good luck and please stay away from this system.

Update: I am still seeing people promoting this no-good program. I finally got myinboxpro cancelled and got my money back on all purchases but still not my pays... I think people need to stay away from this 100%

Judy Meeks's review...
I can not imagine why anyone would not want to join this program if they are serious about getting traffic to a website with traffic exchanges and viral mailers. I find that it is one of the easiest ways to get loads of credits and it is free.

It is also a great way to get referrals to many different traffic exchanges and viral builders. It is so easy to do to. All you do is log in, click on the 3 bars in the upper right corner and click on either traffic exchange promo codes or viral list builder promo codes.

Then you start going down the list clicking on the not a member link if you are not a member of that particular program or enter your affiliate id if you are already a member.

After you join the program you can click on the view promo code link to find the promo codes. Copy the promo code and paste it to the redeem promo code area of the program. This may be under advertising, set up advertising, redeem promo code, or another link depending on the program.

Traffic Codex will tell you how many promo codes are available, the average user rating and how many members there are in that program, but I would not go by the number of members because that is not always accurate.

I find that the time spent copying and pasting each promo code is well worth it compared to clicking my fingers off every day. This saves me a lot of time and gets me a lot of traffic to my website.

Overall I would say this program is definitely worth 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.

Joe Marujo's review...
My experience with the program so far

Just 2 weeks ago this program launched. I was in profit on the first day. I started using the backup right away on my pc and happy to say it's fully automated and instant.

The iphone and android app is reported to be ready in just a few weeks. My wife will be happy since she has hundreds of photos of our grand kids on hers.

What I Like

The product has universal appeal. Everyone can relate to having a phone not back up because they're out of cloud space, or having lost photos or contacts because of a damaged or lost phone. Most of us run our entire business from a pc or laptop. Who hasn't lost files or media from a crashed hard drive?

For less than ten bucks a month for 6 devices, the comp plan is just gravy on top. 200% fast start commissions and check matching (very powerful) this really is a no-brainer!

What I Dislike

There's not a lot to dislike. If I had to nit-pick, I've never been a big fan of binary pay plans. Fortunately in this case it's just one of the ways that we get paid.

Final Verdict

For less than 10 bucks per month, you really can't go wrong here. Even if there was no compensation attached, this service would be worth it.

It's needed by everyone and really can't be beat at this price point.

KASH EMPIRE's review...
I've been a member of The Downliner for about a month now and I would have to say that I am highly impressed. I've been involved with a few other traffic coops however The Downliner is a complete game changer.

So far I like to use the text ads, and with that I have consistently gotten over 50% click thru rate with over 5000-9000 views in a 24 hour time frame. Which has also resulted in a few sign-ups to my main businesses! Very impressive!

Ok, so what exactly is The Downliner other than AMAZING?

The Downliner is a traffic exchange coop that ultimately generates traffic to your websites. It is one of the latest breakthroughs in coop advertising and serves as an efficient and effective way of promoting while generating passive income for all members. It allows anyone to just add their website link with stats then receive traffic from many different sources including PTCs, Safelists, Traffic Exchanges, Classified Ads, CPC traffic as well as social media.

You can register as a free or paid member and can start using the platform immediately. You use points to purchase traffic/views to your websites and can earn points by either purchasing them, or promoting your own coop link.

When promoting your coop link you earn 1:1 which is 1 point per unique view.

As free member, you can earn 10% monthly recurring commissions per referral and if you are a paid member you can earn 30% monthly recurring commissions, when your referral upgrades. Free members can advertise 3 websites and paid members can advertise 10 websites in the campaign.

What makes this what makes this system utterly unique is that you can advertise your sites using banners, text ads (my favorite), and because we can post our sites too in Social Media. The social posts are shown on Twitter, Facebook Groups, LinkedIn, Google Plus, and Pinterest without even having an account with them!

The Downliner have an anti-cheat system that prevents users from other traffic exchanges for using auto-surf bots to gain credits and a timer set with a recurring period valid for 5 minutes wherein views from the same surfers within that time period are not counted. These ensures that your coop views are not wasted and deductions to it are coming from unique views only from traffic exchanges.

The Downliner is attractively advertising us and The TE Coop. It displays our Gravatar photo, it shows how many points we just earned by displaying the site and it persuades the viewer to sign-up to the coop and promotes his/her ad on thousands of sites daily, just like what we are doing here.

This is incredibly compelling, to earn 30% recurring commission from our referrals, and I assure you that everyone who tries The Downliner advertising would not cancel their subscription any time soon. Actually, there's no need to advertise our referral link; we only need to rotate our own co-op link!

Most members who joined find the best way to start is by adding a banner to the system then adding their own social links. Once this is done you should add the sites you wish to promote. Once approved your site will be in rotation on the network.

You have the option always to upgrade your account and we only offer 1 paid option (except for the One-Time offer). Free members receive 10% commission and Paid members receive 30%. The cost to upgrade is $9.99 per calendar month which works out as costing much less than you would pay for a monthly membership at any leading Traffic Exchange or Safelist. The price includes 6,800 shop points equivalent to 5,400 Cooperative Views or two 30 day banner or text ads and is given each month you remain active.

Start promoting your websites now in The Downliner. I assure, you'll get a compelling TE advertising and a consistent monthly recurring income.

I give this platform a solid 5 Stars
