Seems as though Jason is starting to fold and admit his little bit of cheating, under the impression that all this link baiting and chatting is going to get his a whole lot of traffic. People these days forget that there is such a thing as bad traffic and reputation does get messed up. Not all traffic is a good thing, remember that!

Affiliate Lounge is now running a competition about this whole thing, where you can win stuff for blogging and sharing about this whole saga!

    Hmm, bad traffic indeedy. Jason was wise to disable ‘comments’ on his site ;)

    Good boy *pats on his head*

  2. Chris M says:

    Haha, he did that because I posted a link to Affiliate Lounge on one of his posts, rofl!

  3. Wezz says:

    Chris remember when you used to display a fake Feedburner count image (up in the 1000′s) for your Webtrepeneur site. Yes Lushable may have hacked their way to up to their stats but the concept is the same. Think about it.

  4. Riply says:

    LOL! Mills’ not saint!

  5. Chris M says:

    Yes Wezz, but the difference being that I told you immediately what I was doing and closed the issue. I didn’t try lie or deny or anything. I was very open and honest. It was an experiment for an SEO article, as simple as that bud.

    So funny, I was waiting for you to come post – no jokes!

    Well Riply, at least people haven’t found the porn websites ;)

  6. Phillip says:

    LOL Wez, then you should have exposed him! lol
    At least he doesn’t try to do a cover up like Jason…

  7. Chris M says:

    Wezz dealt with the situation very professionally. There were no secrets, no scams and no lies involved at the end of the day..

    Stumbled :)

    Keep up the good work guys!

  9. Everyone who entered my contest got there prize, who’s saying its a scam?

    Why do you even care about the feed counter number? I dont understand you? Isnt there other things to be getting on with? Like washing your hair for example?

  10. haydndup says:

    LOL!

    @Jason:
    Maybe you’re forgetting we’re from South Africa.
    Washing our hair is a long and arduous process involving extracting various saps and gums from surrounding trees.

    Yes, that was bullshit. Just like your feed count.

  11. Phillip says:

    LOL haydndup! I still do it that way!?

  12. haydndup says:

    Yea i do too sometimes. A little bit of tradition never hurt anyone :)

  13. Chris, it’s ‘saga’ not ‘sagga’. :)

    “Washing our hair is a long and arduous process involving extracting various saps and gums from surrounding trees.”

    Bwhahahhahahahah, classic, absolutely classic.

    Jason – we care because you are operating under false premises, simple. For those of us who actually do things morally and correctly it’s annoying when someone cheats and gets ahead.

    Richard – Thanks bud!

  15. You missed a spot.

    Why don’t you get yourself Search and Replace plugin from WordPress and just do a global S&R of your entire blog.

    I think you need an editor too. I’m good, but I’m not cheap. ;)

  16. Chris M says:

    Haha Richard, you’re killing me mate! But point taken. I will have a look and see what I can do. I don’t think I could afford your powerful skills, wish I could!

    Beware of Jason. He is a scammer. Obviously this post is just to get traffic for his site. I gave him a couple hundred dollars for adspace on his site. He says all he needs is a little more money. One month and barely any traffic. Now he hasn’t signed onto msn messenger. He took my adsense down. He scammed me. I am doing everything in my power to bring him down. Jason if you are reading this contact me before I really get you in trouble.

  18. HHAHAHA!

    Dude, I feel you pain! I was scammed by e-bay for 120 pounds.. that’s a lot in SA Rands :/ Well, not e-bay themselves, but a scammer on it.

    At the end of the day – this Jason prick will get what’s coming to him! You could get his details by running a whois through linux’s command line for a FULL breakdown of who he is..

    If you need help with your adsense, drop me a line on my site and i’ll show you how :)
