关于Affiliate的一些新认识

最近一直在研究Affiliate，然后见了一个人，看了一篇文章，脑袋有点疼…

之前觉得自己玩CJ，玩shareasale 还挺溜的，遇到上面一个人，和一篇文章之后，整个人都不好了…

一个人

这个人在我看来是真正的Affiliate 大牛

他来自美国，现在常住在马来西亚，问他为什么不把办公室设在中国，他说中国的VPN 太shit，他受不了….

我们第一次见面是在西乡，这家伙初次见面，也不避讳，就给我看了他的网赚后台数据（当时想找我合作做项目，所以老外很真诚），真的看完之后，那种感觉只能配下面这张图了…

后台每天至少纯利30000美金，一年9千万是跑不了的。他就是玩affiliate，玩流量，不卖货，而且没有任何的资金周转压力！

（对的，是右边，右边）

用他的原话说,在他现在这个年龄：

I learn to have freedom to travel and meet people and keep business running without being stuck in the same office every day. 

不过还算幸运，本周末有机会邀请对方来做交流和分享，并邀请了25人（已满）。相信会对与会者有一个新的启发~~

一篇文章

这篇文章是我在BHT上看到的，提问的人问，“谁是Facebook 流量的最大购买者”

然后底下有一个回答的人，让我目瞪口呆….昨天晚上看了这篇文章之后，睡眠一直不好，回想各种玩法，感觉脑袋在打仗…

本文很长，我也没有翻译，感兴趣的慢慢看，这篇文章对玩affiliate的人或许有新的认识，认真看完你会发现他的价值巨大！

原文如下：

We are not biggest but we inject the most ads into their site.

Whistleblower. I want to tell you the truth about my ad injection company.

My company is building apps that are in your app store and we auto-emable them on users and over time insert ourselves into those computers then inject ads and other tools.

I am a whisteblower. My company injects ads, monitor user behaviour, cheat affilaite system etc to make money.

The company name is Sterkly and Revizer. You may also knows us as Sambreel. We got sued by Facebook in 2011.

Please read this email.

I am going to give you secrets today that can get me fired and also hurt physically.

I am scared so I will no tell you my name.

The company is Revizer from Israel which merged with Sterkly from USA to form another entity named Avantis.

The company and it’s partners have made millions without anyone knowing.

My ex company is the underbelly of dark site of internet abuse..

We are so good, we have fooled Yahoo, Microsoft, Google, Amazon, facebook and every anti-virus companies.

The company leaders have even tried to bribe Microsoft and anti-virus company officers.

In Facebook we inject ads to make revenue.

They wont be able to trace it back to Sterkly as we have shell companies that hide our tracks.

We also track users so we know where your users are browsing and sell that data to RTB networks and data gathering companies. Its easy money and you never find out.

That traffic is high quality and we make lot of money from it.

Not everyone in my company knows about this as its a secret.

I am one of the few that know.

WHAT DO THE DO:

– Ad injection – we insert ads into white spaces in a browser and match it to look like the site

– Pop-under – easy money

– Pop-Up – easy money. Good for distributing pc and virus products that annoy you till you call the call center or buy it online.

– White space ads on Facebook

– Search injection into Google Bing and Yahoo. We make our listing look just like theirs and we make millions from this.

– Selling user browsing data to 3rd parties. This is easy as we track all users.

– Blocking Chrome, Firefox and Internet Explorer functions. They update their product to stop us so we inject software to disable updates and so we can keep the user for long time.

– Stuffing computers with affiliate links to earn money. We use this with Ebay, Amazon and many large ecommerce companies.

– Auto-enabling our ad units without user’s consents. We do installs of our software with companies below. The software we installs looks innocent, but after we get into the network, we change the file and now can install on a computer withou user consent.

HOW WE GREW TO BECOME ONE OF THE LARGEST COMPANIES:

– We made a lot of money from the list above.

– We became clients of large install companies in Israel to gain installs from Adult, Movie, File Sharing, Image and MP3 download sites. Its easy to get millions of users from here.

– We also know how to get good traffic. We have tools that we give to other companies that will inject into Google search results, Yahoo search results, and Bing.

– Also, some of our partners inject into Online Shopping for Electronics, Apparel, Computers, Books, DVDs & more, Newegg and others.

– The best customers are easily from Facebook. We inject hidden links and ads into their pages. We made it look like facebook, so user’s never knew. They clicked and we made millions.

The company leaders below push us to make aggressive products that hack.

– we are congratulated when we hack someone like you or Apple.

– He is the brains behind most of my companies products. He thinks of new hacks all day to make money.

– Tom is on cocaine or pot everynight but someone comes to work and works hard.

– He comes up with ideas on how to hack and built products that we can inject into all day.

– He throws parties in USA for all his partners that make him money. I am too low to be sent there, but other team members talk about the crazy parties in Vegas.

– He worked in porn industry before, so he has lots of connections there to adult sites to get installs.

New Company: http://www.linkedin.com/company/…. This article talk about the acquistion: Software developer ad co Revizer raises $20m – Globes English

WE ARE GOOD:

– We have companies in various islands, so that no one can touch us.

– We have shell companies we make when we want to.

– Sterkly is secretly giving us more ad technology so that we make more money.

– We attend tradeshows, finance groups so that we look good and get away with it all.

Clients who work with Sterkly, Revizer or Avantis (whatever you want to call it).

– Perion

– 50onRed

– Crossrider

– Cnet’s Free Software, Apps, Downloads, and Reviews

– OpenCandy

– Advertise.com | Online Advertising Network | Ad Network

– Superfish- yes the company that hacked Lenovo (Lenovo Only Made Up To $250,000 From Nightmare Superfish Deal, Say Sources)

– Dealply

– Revenue Wire

– Aedgency

– Webpick- lots of adult traffic that CEO loved

– Bittorrent

– Matomy Media

WHY AM I SAYING ALL THIS:

– I am sick of it.

– I show little kids ads to download games so that without their parents know we inject ads

– I fool less computer knowledge people like old folks to install our stuff

– I helped hack Facebook, Google, Apple either direclty or supported them

– This company is making too much money, they need to be legally stopped.

我们，对于很多的事，选择去质疑，去嘲讽，去不屑….

但质疑的人或许并非无知，只是事情超过了他们的认知范围。互联网的三个世界，在地下世界发生地事情，地面上的人永远不知道是怎么回事。
