Advertising Gold Mine Description

Advertising Gold Mine is a matrix-based advertising membership program that gives its members ways to advertise their own businesses, plus gives them a way to earn commissions within the program as well. This program gives its members credits for such things as banner ads, text ads and email ads, and pays referral commissions as they build their downlines.

Advertising Gold Mine Detailed Overview

The Advertising Gold Mine is similar in some ways to an ad exchange program. It gives its members credits for advertising in a variety of ways, and the advertisements are seen by other members, as well as anyone on your opt-in lists if you wish. With other ad exchange programs, members can earn credits by reading other members ads and visiting other members’ websites. With Advertising Gold Mine, however, ad credits are given each time you pay a weekly membership fee of $5.75. There is an exchanging of ads, but it isn’t dependent on any ad-reading activity.

The matrix part of Advertising Gold Mine has to do with commission income earned by having other paying members in your downline. The only way to belong to this program is to be a paying member; there is no free level. This means that anyone you refer who joins is going to earn you a commission as long as they are active paying members. Though they do encourage actively referring, they promise that you’ll get referrals, albeit more slowly, even if you don’t recruit, because of matrix spillover.

The Advertising Gold Mine matrix goes on a 2x2 level, and it goes in cycles. Every time you cycle, you win a commission. On every 2nd cycle, your way is paid into a higher level. There are 6 levels; bronze, silver, gold, titanium, platinum and diamond. The higher the level, the more you earn each cycle. You can buy your way into any top level, but you don’t have to. You’ll make your way there eventually as long as you keep cycling.

Advertising Gold Mine Reputation

So far Advertising Gold Mine seems to be building a decent reputation. Members are reporting that they are indeed getting paid their commissions. They are also reporting that the advertising they receive through the program is more than satisfactory. Many of these kinds of programs tend to come and go, so time will tell if this will be one of the programs that last. If it stays on its current course, the odds will be good.

A good chance of making money + advertising

Well, when I applied to this biz-opp I wondered if I should pay my way till the top right away, to earn more. I was quite uncertain about the cash results and the reliability of the program. Therefore, I did not pay for the top, but instead I paid for a intermedium level (you can also do that) that was titanium, which allowed me to advertise for about 1 thousand random people. It did work since I noticed a nice increase of more or less 15% on my website's traffic.

About the making-money part of the program, the bad news was that my referral payout was at $120, and as I pay more or less 100$ to be on my intermedium position, it does not give a big deal of money.

The best issue is that, so far, I have always received the money daily, so they really care about paying what we deserve on time.

According to the money I made so far, I think their "matrix" system really works: at least I did not have difficulties on finding referrals at all.

This is an ok program

I joined TAGM when it just launched and advertising was working really well. I was also getting spillover like they had mentioned but it did take several weeks to cycle. I kept promoting the program and had only one person sign up while the others remained free members. After I had used it for a few weeks advertising wasn't as responsive as it used to be and membership declined. I joined for the advertising but since it stopped working for me I canceled. The support group is friendly and understanding.

Not The Goldmine It's Cracked Up To Be

I joined TAGM during the "leaders" pre-launch phase before they opened their doors to the public. I did fairly well for the first few months and received the one position in my bronze matrix every week week as promised and cycled the bronze 3 times but never cycled the silver. The advertising in the beginning was very responsive and I received quite a few leads to my biz opp through the text and banner ads. But the so-called solo ads was nothing more than a safelist that flooded your contact email with hundreds of ads everyday which I didn't like at all and a waste of time to send as they produced no click thrus at all. I stayed with it until it started costing me more than I was making, then I got out. The membership level has dropped so low now that it doesn't justify the $23 a month anymore.

The Advertising Gold Mine Bust

I joined TAGM under Rachel Long. Automatic weekly placements were guaranteed in your matrix. In the beginning filling a matrix was supposed to give you automatic entry into the next higher paying level. After completing the bronze I received a congratulatory email from the owners saying that I would cycle in both bronze and silver upon completing my next matrix. That never happened. I had even paid an extra $45 to buy in to the next two matrix levels (silver and gold). After starting my fourth bronze matrix with still no entry into silver, I decided it was hopeless. I spent $137 over three months to earn $20. I've noticed that the membership has gone from over 2000 to 993. I think the owners are taking advantage of those coming in believing the promises made on the home page. The advertising at $23 per month was useless--hardly any clicks. Very misleading--Stay Away!

Not exactly for me

I do not use TAGM for advertising. I fell for the "we fill your matrix" sort of thing. They do not. And although I got 2 spillovers, it stopped very fast. It did flood my inbox with opportunities however (mostly stuff I get without spending 5.75/week). If you advertise opps, then this might make you money, but the matrix boils down to paying 35 dollars every six weeks to get 10 dollars. Now, if you like doing that, then this is for you.

Some Love This, Some Don't ... Personally I love it

TAGM for short, The Advertising Gold Mine is a great resource.

I wasn't going to use it, and did not join straight away like many others, the weekly payment put me off originally.

Then a few friends kept on about it, so I did decide to join and am glad I did, and I didn't join under a heavy hitter either. I joined under my friend.

It has paid for itself now & they did as promised. I didn't advertise it at first till I had used it myself. I cycled within three weeks, and have cycled again and that will continue to happen now for as long as I stick around, which I do plan to.

It is one that requires a little patience, and to also make use of the advertising credits they give you each week.

It does Work well and has huge potential for a lot of income, as once you cycle, on the second cycle, you go up each level and still have original positions in the lower levels.

They now also have an option to buy into each level, to make it even faster..

That is purely optional, have heard some are buying in all the way to the top

levels, I haven't done that myself... May consider it at some point.. don't really feel the need to, as it is moving along quite nicely on it's own...

If you do stick with it, and give it time, whether you refer people or not, You Will

get Paid!

Also they have fixed the cookie problem, I believe that was in the first two weeks of launching, as with most things when new, they have the odd glitch.

TAGM has very friendly, responsive Admin too, and they also do RadioTalk shows,

which explain exactly how it all works, You DO need to see the bigger picture with this, once you see that, then you just may get excited! :)

It isn't a get rich quick, however it will make you very good money, with time!



Cheers :)

It wasn't for me

I joined and used all of the advertising. You get text ads and banners every week plus you get to send a solo ad every 48 hours. I did not receive any results after three weeks promoting a program that is very appealing to the online marketer and gets sign ups daily in other resources. Also, I promoted it and did not get one personal referral. I found out that they had it set up where if someone else visited the site earlier and did not clear their cookies, they would sign up under the original site they visited instead of mine. This is fine. This is done often. But I figured it was almost pointless to continue promoting it. I did get people placed under me as promised. However, since I was not getting any results from my advertising or from my promoting the site itself, I cancelled. It could have eventually been an additional income stream for me had I stayed but that was not reason enough for me as I already make money as an affiliate of other programs. I joined mainly for the advertising and therefore it was not the best program for me. I feel that it could be a good income stream for someone as the matrix is filled for you as promised.

Get over $250 in advertising and so much more at Ads and Cash

Join our no risk, out-of-pocket opportunity and never worry about cash flow again

 
 
 
Very Happy with this site

I tried this site without doing any advertising of it and they really did put one person in my downline each week. After filling my first six, I got paid before paying for the week. Now, it's paying itself. They really do what they say they do. I had to use support and they answer very fast and friendly. I'm so glad with my experience that now I'm beginning to advertise the site to fill my downline faster.
