Offers CreditCard Website 123creditcard.us

[HSNetwork]

linkreach, give it a rest, and do us all a favor and go away. The only one being rude and unprofessional at this point is you, so I suggest that you take a good hard read of this thread and perhaps you'll discover the intelligence to realize that since you are going to be buying a site from coolblue that I am doing you a favor since you will benefit from our collective work on this problem.

The site as sold won't cut it for approval with NCSReporting who has tightened their standards for approval. Although we are finally making progress, the site still, despite a lot of work on coolblue's and my own part, has not been approved. It finally passed Jessica's initial screening and has now actually been turned over to their approval department.

For those considering purchasing the site from coolblue, be warned that NCS Reporting requires nothing less than 100% accuracy now. Each card image must be up to date, trademark symbols must be next to the names of each card whereever the name is mentioned, the APR's must be exact, and even the promotional text must be exactly as they provide it, including punctuation, capitalization, trademark symbols, etc.

coolblue, when i find a minute to finally get on my computer, will i have these problems or will i have the updated database?

 

[Cool1g]

my experience with CoolBlue....

i bought one of his sites last fall. after a minor install glitch (error on their part), i got my site up and running. it made some months $200+, some months lost a couple of $s....

as NCS sends out emails all the time with updates and changes to their card terms, I had logged into my website one time earlier this year to make the changes. when i tried to edit my cards i saw that the database wasn't working correctly and i could not edit/save changes to any cards. then i investigated further and saw that the search functions on the index page were not working correctly either.

now was this due to a site crash? maybe....the only event i knew of was earlier this year i moved from shared to dedicated hosting as i needed the extra bandwidth for a new site i launching. the shift moved fine with every site and the only change i needed to make was to change some CHMOD permissions on another site. As far as it appeared by the index page, my credit card site worked fine after the change...

anyway, after i realized the site wasn't working correclty, i sent CB an email asking for help. I know that he doesn't guarantee help after the site is running, but i figured it was worth a shot. finally heard back after a month. he said he'd take a look at the site. it took about 4 weeks of going back and for for him to even admit that the site wasn't working correctly. i don't think he did anything more than look at the index page to check as it was obvious to anyone who spent any time on the site that it wasn't working correctly. finally, after 4 weeks of me describing the problem he finally relented and said the script wasn't working right.

So i said how do we fix it? I had already spoked to my hosting provider since i thought the problem may be related to the server move. They had their programmers look at it and said the code was not correct...they fixed part of it for me but not all. I also had a 3rd party programmer say the same thing - the coding was messed up. How this happened i have no idea...

Anyway, when I told CD this, he then proceeds to say it was 'global' setting of some sort on my server that was turned off and that was the problem. I asked him to clarify this multiple times to run it by my host but he ignored all requests.

he also said he needed a CPanel type program installed for him to do the install and would once that utility program was there. I didn't have one at that point on my server so i had my host install one for me. Again, no response from CB when i told him his request was fulfilled.

At this point, NCS Reporting got involved as my site was out of compliance....they asked CB to fix the site. He told them he would but he didn't. I told him to send me the files and i'd do it myself...i made this request multiple times and he blew me off. NCS Reporting again asked him to make the changes and he blew them off as well. I have an email from them saying CB was ignoring their requests to fix my site and other sites with similar problems.

I know CB has sold multiple copies of this site with great results. For some reason my site crashed, and after multiple promises to help CB blew me off. If he didn't want to help he should have said so from the get-go. And the fact that he's ignored NCS Reporting who this site is designed for looks bad as well. It sounds like if you buy a site today, it will take a fair amount of work to get it compliant for NCS. I finally gave up and am having Card Offers design me a site....it takes a lot of time to update all the offers that NCS has - i'd rather pay $29 per month to have it updated dynamically - my time it too valuable to spend it updating interest rates and credit card offer terms every couple of days.

just my $0.02.

NCSReporting also lost the rights to advertise Citibank cards because of tons of sites that were not compliant.

I have tried my hand at advertising a credit card site and I must say it is EXTREMELY expensive to get the sort of traffic that CoolBlue gets to achieve his results. He probably has 10-20 of these pages running at the same time. He also has other sites that contain backlinks to his credit card web sites thus giving him good search engine placement which gives him FREE clicks. Those results he posted he admits are the result of thousands of dollars worth of advertising...but he also gets search engine traffic for free.

You simply can't get numerous credit card clicks through Adwords anymore unless you pay out the behind for them. This may have been different in the past, but it is certainly the case now.

Truth is, the same site is being sold over and over to everyone that is willing to cough up $300, and that is fine, but the real job has nothing to do with the web site itself...its in the advertising. And that is HARD, and EXPENSIVE. If anyone tells you otherwise, they aren't being honest.

my experience with CoolBlue....

 

[labrocca]

I sent CB a PM about a week ago about trying to update my sql since I bought it months ago and never bothered to update it. He has yet to reply. I found another person with the script and we worked out a deal for an update. I am not sure what is going on with CB but he might just be getting in over his head. There are a lot of sites now out there with his script.

 

[coolblue23]

Ok guys look.

I am going to take the script off the market if everyone doesnt keep their 2 cents out of my for sale thread. You want to post your experience? fine post it somewhere else not in my for sale thread.

Cool1g: You purchased a site. I installed the site MULTIPLE times. You REFUSED to host it on my server. When you switched servers it wouldnt work. I told you REPEATEDLY to just let me host it and install it on my server OR put it back on the server you had it on. You just simply refused. I dont know what more to do with you about this? I have even had ncs calling me about your website.
Here are the FACTS:
1: you purchased a site and one was delivered
2: your site you even admit was running fine and made $200 + some months
3: YOU changed hosts
4: Now you installed the site and it wouldnt work......
5: I told you to at least let me host it and maintain it 6: YOU REFUSED

No i wont guarantee that once the site is installed and working just fine and 4 months later you change to some other host, re-install the site yourself and it doesnt work that its my fault. Thats ludacris.


As for now I am just taking the site off the market.
I have the updated database now, however, anyone could have made the changes I made anyway.


As for the comments about me having hundreds of pages etc thats bs........ i run 1 site actively.......thats where I make my money and I am using the SAME words i provide you with to get started.........


anyway. further communication can be made with me via PM's
I am reporting this to the mods since obviously its gotten WAY out of hand with people making false claims and just being nothing short of stupid.

HSNetwork none of these comments are pointed your way as i have taken nothing you have said the wrong way ........

Labrocca at the time i didnt have an updated database when you asked for it. You do have to updated the db weekly if ncs makes changes...... its not a cardoffers site....but then thats why people like it. I do however apologize for not responding to your pm or post whichever you did.

KenWx23: Just to let you know i NEVER tell anyone anything but the truth. You can easily make a few hundred a month without spending out the ass if you just try and pay attention to your advertising account. To make 9k yea you gotta spend some money on advertising.

I am selling a WEBSITE / SCRIPT for use for credit card marketing. There are no other solutions out there for this other than cardoffers..... thats it. The value of the $300 is simply put : my script/design.

NCS did lose citibank but that was bc of other issues. You can use my site with ANY credit card offer even cardoffers or metarewards ........ thats again the value of my site.

thanks

 

[coolblue23]

Hsnetwork: I have sent you MULTIPLE pm's here regarding sending me the updated database I made for you. I have another guy waiting in the wind for his site for this database. I used your site to make it because why not? i just did the work for you on your site, however, the agreement was that you would send me the database or let me log in and download it. I am unable to login and unwilling to do all this work all over again.......... I need a copy of my database. Please respond via PM asap. I have someone waiting for this.

thanks

Dear All

I bought a site form Cool Blue and he delivered what he was advertising. period. This thread has got out of hand. There are obviously issues with NCS at the moment as they have tightened their policy with regard new accounts. I don't see how this has anything to do with Cool Blue. It seems he has done his best to help in this case.

MY site has made $300 alreadythis month and for zero advertising costs. Main reason is that the site get s good search engine position on MSN. Was #1 earlier this week. Anyway the point is that anyone who is thinking of buying a site from Cool Blue should have no hesitation in dealing with him. You get a database driven site that is easy to maintain. You will have to maintian it as nothing in this life comes to those who sit on their backsides and think the world owes them a living. Cool Blue provides a great product that you can promote , saving you hours upon hours of development and headache....... the ultimate success depends on how you embrace this opportunity.

Okay, off the soap box, Cool Blue I have pm'ed you.

Cheers

 

[coolblue23]

glad your making good $$ !!!

thanks for the comments!

ncs has cracked down. but i have fixed the db if hsnetwork would send me it i could include it with all new sites!

 

[kenwx23]

In order to get that sort of search engine position, you need a ton of backlinks to your site. How did you do that? You must have other sites that you were able to link to it.

No search engine optimization will get you to #1 in MSN besides backlinks. And backlinks aren't free if you don't already have another site (like a forum, which has hundreds if not thousands of pages you can backlink from).

Just curious as to how you did it, so many other can share your success.

Wrong. MSN doesn't do their ranking based on backlinks. Google does, and it isn't just backlinks.

I'm sorry, but you are in fact very wrong. Do a simple internet search for "does MSN base its rankings on backlinks"

It is fairly common knowledge I thought that MSN bases their rankings more heavily based on banklinks than ANY other search engine. It is easier for a new site to get a high ranking in MSN than any other search engine because of this.

Here's a quote:

MSN supports her approach, saying, "The MSN Search ranking algorithm analyzes factors such as page contents, the number and quality of sites that link to your pages, and the relevance of your site's content to keywords."

 

[coolblue23]

Normally thats true.
However, for whatever reason unknown to me MSN loves my script. EVERY site i put up ends up #1 - #5 for whatever keywords I target.

I have been #1 for low interest credit card with 2 backlinks.... i have no clue why. Thats just really how it is.

If this is so true, why did my brand new file uploading site get in the top 8 of a lot of very good keywords in a matter of days with maybe 1 or 2 backlinks? My point was, yes it may involve backlinks, but no way is it BASED on backlinks.

Also, maybe you are thinking of the old MSN? In case you didnt notice they have a whole new system up and in place.

Hsnetwork:

Last Time I Am Asking For A Copy Of My Database! I Did It On Your Site Because You Said I Could Take A Backup Copy Otherwise I Would Have Used It On My Own Pc And Sent You A Copy.

I Expect A Copy Of This By Tomorrow!!!

Thanks

 

[HSNetwork]

A sql dump of the site as approved by NCS has been made and e-mailed to you. Sorry for the delay, I was hoping to update it with all of the latest offers first, but I have not had a chance.

 

[gariben]

can you provide this (updated sql db) to all of the people who purchased your script/site?

 

[coolblue23]

I have the sql dump now.
I will provide it for all thenew sites that I create yes.

thanks

 

[littlenicky]

How about the old sites that you sold in the past so that we can be up to date?

 

[coolblue23]

yeah.
this is the last one i am updating like that though. you need to keep your site up to date in order to make money.
Nobody said this was sit back and get rich without doing a single thing. I mean making the changes to your site could not take 20 minutes at most each week and its to your benefit to do it anyway...... otherwise you arent at full potential to make $$$....

keep your sites up to date......

send me email at [email protected] and ill fwd the db
