Traffic Siphon was launched in a blaze of glory but was it hype or is it a good product.So i have reviewed this new product and here are my thoughts.
1. It is basically a backlinking training programme with a number of “SIPHONS” to help you get traffic and backlinks to your site. (NO BAD THING)
2. Most of the methods are what we all use today so unlike the sales letter says, this is not new and cutting edge.
3. Two of the Siphons “Comment Spam Siphon” and the “Competitor Siphon” were interesting and are stuff I have not seen before which looks like it could be quite powerful.
4. The membership site is laid out very well and each of the Siphon Videos has a Quick Start Guide and Video transcript.
Then what?
Ok the videos themselves were actually recorded back in late 2009 so this really is a PLR (Private Label Rights) video product which to me has been rehashed and glossed up.
If you go to the sales page then you will see that they are only selling 250 copies. Well if the guy Mark Barnard makes 120,000 per month using clickbank why would he be limiting his income to $16,750 (Alarm bells)
Also if you go to the sales page it says their are 78 copies left and their were 78 copies left just after launch and when i looked a short while ago their were still 78 copies left (Oh oh)
Now when you go to order you can click away and you get one of those annoying “Click cancel to stay” and you get offered a 5 day trial for $1 which says “Only 5 Left”……..well you guessed it it was 5 left after they launched and it is still 5 left (Oh oh)
This is the option I took. once you get to the order process you then are made 5-6 upsell/downsell offers (2 would be enough)
Ok is the product any good??
I quite liked some of it and I am sure it may help in building backlinks but I do not like being lied to or taken for a ride. So I did a little investigation and popped over to The Warrior Forum and somebody there claims he had a contact from the promoter saying that they had sold 6000 copies.
I could well believe this and even if it is not the case these guys have blatantly lied to people and I for one will not stand for it.
I will also be going through my own emails and anybody who has pitched this product to me will never get any business or the ability to peddle such crap again.
I advise you to do the same.
Hope this helps

Thanks for the review. I purchased this too. I think the information is good, but only for a true newbie. It seemed to be pretty blatant training that we all have seen or used in the past. I am always looking for that “GEM” , but also seem to come up short. I know that it it takes a bunch of techniques to actually SCORE and it seems everyone is ALL over the map (or at least I am) when it comes to making a good solid income. Over all the course was not too bad, but if your seasoned and have some war wounds to show for it, this is OLD hat. If your new, it may be just the stuff you need to get going. Good Luck in YOUR quest.
