mberam's comment on Mobile Mass Money ...
Terrible and Worthless
I am NOT new to internet marketing, HTML and web design. I have a couple of successful sites. I wanted to check out the mobile marketing thing, so I purchased this program for $47. Let me tell you why this program is terrible:
Although there were some useful pieces of information – they don’t actually explain how to put the program together and make it work. The videos are very confusing and don’t go together. They show you one thing and then something else, but never actually show you how it all works together. So you’re like “what does this have to do with that?” They have Step 1, Step 2, etc…but they don’t go together!
A large part of the program is about SMS (Text) marketing. Similar to an email marketing campaign, they show you how to set up the text message auto-responders, so when someone texts the word “money” for example, to 417647 (or whatever), you can set it up to text back an affiliate link or a link to your website. The mobile number then gets added to a list and you now have a list of mobile numbers you can send text messages to. Sounds great, except THEY NEVER TELL YOU HOW TO ACTUALLY GET PEOPLE TO SEND A TEXT TO YOU! It’s very frustrating! I racked my brain for hours trying to figure it out or see if I was missing something. I kept looking over all the videos, etc. The training is really bad.
They show you how to set up an email marketing campaign – but this is pretty easy to do without them. Just sign up with a email marketing company like Aweber, use one of Aweber’s pre-made forms, then create a mobile webpage, put the Aweber form on your mobile page, then use Admobi to drive traffic to the site. When they get to your mobile site, have them enter their email address for more information. It's just like any email campaign except you're directing them to a mobile site. It's simple to create a mobile site - just Google "Mobile Page Builder" or something similar.
Maybe they were leading to you using the email marketing campaign to get people to text to you... maybe, but that seems kind of basic. The problem is they never say!
They do tell about Admobi, but that's nothing special. Admobi is similar to Google Adwords, where you pay for ads to be shown on Mobile phones. It’s cost per click just like adwords. In fact Admobi is owned by Google.
That's really all you learn. They never once teach you how to get people to send text messages to build you text message list. They don’t teach you how to automate the text message marketing. The only thing you really learn is how to build an email marketing list using mobile.
They do show you how to create a VERY basic mobile web page. I created a mobile page just like they suggested and used Admobi to drive traffic to it. Admobi has a $50 minimum and guess what? YOU USE THAT $50 IN ABOUT 2 MINUTES…no kidding. I spent $200 on Admobi and did not generate a single sale or even conversion.
They will build you a site they claim actually converts if you pay them... $300. LOL. The basic mobile page creator they provide stinks.
The whole site is built to get you to purchase their upgrades. They want you to purchase their website and hosting, which you have to pay for annually. They do have a monthly option, but then there's a $50 set up fee.
I did check the stats on Admobi and I had 892 visitors to the mobile page in about 5 mins…so maybe I need to figure out how to build a better mobile page.
Anyway, that’s my two cents. Find a better program…there has to be some out there.

No Longer Available
They are no longer selling this software. Now you must buy Howie's complete package, which sells for $1000. A bit steep - and the website gives you no details at all about what you get. I was disappointed as the reviews seemed pretty good and I am really just looking for an auto poster.

Great Tool
Great Tool. Easy to use. Helps show you what you need to do to get ranked higher in Google. Tells you what your competitors are doing as well. Points out exactly where you need to improve on your page descriptions, keywords, intitle stuff, etc. The best part is - it's totally free!

Not that good
Everyone should know, you still need to get your own content with this tool. It does not automatically provide the content. It's basically an article management system that allows you to post and schedule all you're articles at once and easily add pictures or videos from youtube to the article. But you must already have the articles and the youtube videos - it does not get the content for you. You have to import the content yourself. They provide 6350 articles, but they are so broad and will not work if you have a very niche blog. I have a blog on MMA and UFC - there was not 1 article about that or even martial arts.

Garbage Software
Made poorly. The plug in screwed up all the html on my blog. The articles are terrible. It doesn't allow you to install more than one blog per root directory. So if you have other blogs on your hosting account in the root directory, you have to create another folder and name it something like "blog". So if you have a domain name such as ABC.com, your blog cannot be abc.com - it will abc.com/blog (or whatever folder you have named). I contacted support twice - they never responded. Wasted a day with this software and I am not a beginner internet marketer.

Complete waste of time
I installed the trial version of this product and got 2 ads through, before CL recognized the auto poster and started requesting phone verification. I tried changing the categories and using categories that normally do not require phone verification and CL still requested it. I followed the instructions exactly. The other thing it did - it would auto post the first couple of ads, but then it just kept posting blank ads - like it erased my ad. It didn't matter anyway, because I couldn't get through the phone verification. Maybe this program used to be good, but it was a waste of 90 minutes for me.
