Do Internet Marketers Think We Are Goldfish
A few days ago I wrote a blog entry called " Do You Believe in Fairy Tales " in which an Internet Marketer had sent me an email regarding a SEO (search engine optimization) product that he said would get me higher search engine rankings than ever before.
Two days later I get another email from the same marketer telling me to be wary of SEO programs that make all sorts of misleading claims. Now this marketer has obviously not realized or forgotten that his previous email was promoting an SEO product, which I should add, was full of misleading claims.
So does this marketer think I have such a short memory that I'll not realize one day he is sending me a message to buy an SEO product full of all sorts of misleading claims and two days later he is telling me to be wary of SEO products that make all sorts of claims.
In other words he thinks I'm a Goldfish - shown to have poor memory and an attention span of about 3 seconds.
The first part of his email read:
You've probably seen a lot of SEO programs lately that make all sorts of claims. Some will get you the #1 spot on Google, or others will "magically" drive laser-targeted traffic to your site.The truth is that there is no "magic button" and there never will be. If you've bought into the claims of the SEO magicians, you've probably learned that many of the so-called systems are short-lived, and some of them will get your site outright banned from the search engines!
Don't get me wrong, there ARE helpful tools which can be an important part of your SEO strategy. The tricky part is not wasting your time and money on the ones that don't work or will get your site dropped.
In terms of wasting your money or getting your site dropped he obviously is not referring to his own SEO product of two days before that I showed was a waste of money and could get your site dropped.
I said I wouldn't reveal this marketers identity to avoid him embarrassment, but since he thinks I'm a Goldfish I've decided to tell you his name is David Zohar.
