Jim Kukral: My Apology To John Chow, Dot Com Mogul + Branding Advice!

  • Ed Lau · 3 years ago
    Yes, John seems like he's evil in trying to push internet marketing for his own gain but once you get to know him, he's actually the devil, the root of all that is unholy and evil in this world.

    ...wait...what was I saying?

    Either way, as I said on John's blog, there's nothing wrong with AGLOCO in the sense that you can take advantage of it the same way he has. It truly remains to be seen how successful AGLOCO will be this time around after the spectacular disaster of AllAdvantage but their business model looks a bit more solid this time around. The way I see it, the worst that can happen is we surf for five hours and get a buck or two. Not like we'll lose anything but the 2 minutes it takes to set up an account.

    Cheers.

    Jim,

    I'm joining the conversation kind of late here but only recently have I learned about AGLOCO.

    This is the part that smells bad to me: I make money from Adsense and then someone surfs over to my site and instead of that visitor clicking on my ad, he/she clicks on an ad from the AGLOCO toolbar.

    That's stealing from me in my book because I created the content that the contextual toolbar is detecting and I'm not being compensated for it. Is that fair?
