New Report Reveals The Ultimate Website Traffic Funnel…

The much anticipated report entitled “The Ultimate Website Traffic Funnel” is finally here.

And it’s packed to the rim with 24 pages of hardcore material that is bound to get people focused on promoting their websites properly.

But the best thing is that there is over 13 minutes of video presentation included and a 53-minute interview that I did with an expert on this topic.

So you really do not want to miss out on this funnel of an experience.

I’ve had people clawing at me to see a sneak peak of it, and there was some serious energy expended and put into bringing this PDF, video and audio production together for you.

Some subscribers were even expecting some sort of price tag to be put on this information with all that’s included. But guess what? No such chance!

A Public Statement to Those Abusing NicheBOT and One Man’s Audacity

by The NicheBOT Guy36 Comments

On September 17, 2006, NicheBOT faced a server crash that was of unknown origin at the time and went offline for 3-4 hours.

On September 18, 2006, and to our shock and amazment, Keyword Discovery results were no longer appearing.

We checked our systems and all we could see was that NicheBOT’s IP address and connection to Keyword Discovery’s database was being refused.

Yesterday, on September 19, 2006, we received confirmation from Keyword Discovery’s CEO, David Warmuz, that NicheBOT was getting hit by thousands of requests per hour that were overwhelming KD’s servers and causing heavy server load. And, therefore, they shut down any access from NicheBOT’s main page at http://www.nichebot.com

That totally and completely explains the events that have transpired over the past few days.

This is a Public Announcement to those that are battering and using automated scripts to try and pilfer keywords for FREE.

NicheBOT abused by automated scripts…

by The NicheBOT Guy3 Comments

We heard back from Keyword Discovery’s CEO today and got the front page keyword tool back up and working today.

It was sad news to hear that the reason the tool was not working was due to thousands of requests per hour being pounded on NicheBOT’s servers by automated keyword scripts and, thus, thousands of requests being hammered into Keyword Discovery’s own servers and database.

So as a fail safe, and to keep server load down on their part, Keyword Discovery shut down NicheBOT’s access to the trial results that have been displayed here at NicheBOT on a solid basis.

Not only does this apparent abuse effect the tool from working in the future, but it affects the regular users that do not abuse the tool for whom we’ve kept it open to the public for their use. We may now have to put in safeguards in place and require a login that will point out who the abusers are.

And because of these insane number of search requests hammering NicheBOT’s and Keyword Discovery’s servers, this is exactly why the competition results have not been displayed either.

This now means that NicheBOT.com will have to take appropriate steps by initiating anti-abuse measures, one of which will be banning certain IPs.

And — this is one of the BIG reasons that I called for an emergency NicheBOT 2 signup yesterday for the next 48 hours. That sign up process will end tomorrow.

So, in the future, if the tool is down, please understand that it is beyond our control that abusers reak havoc, but that we may need to put in place measures that make it more difficult for this to continue to occur.

Thank you for being a loyal NicheBOT subscriber.

You may move about the internet and continue to gather keywords. ;o)

Best,

Jim Morris, President/CEO
