Dave’s Cool Little Website: Part I

Thursday, March 1st, 2007

In the beginning of my adsense ready website research, I came across a website that discussed the benefit of Dave’s Cool Website over all other adsense ready ones. The website mentioned how Dave’s cool website is a product different from the others and indicated that it worked. This website promoting Daves Cool Little Website (DCLW) is no longer available; however, I found another website that promotes this product. Before I get into what people have to say about DCLW and provide my review let me first briefly describe the product. For starters, DCLW is not the same thing as Mark Warren Websites. I’ll discuss the differences in my next post. DCLW combines the Clickbank affiliate marketplace, Google Adsense, eBay affiliate program and article database (just like you’ll find in those adsense ready websites) into one website. Unlike Mark Warren websites, DCLW is not designed to scam people and while the sites are individually owned they are all hosted together on one server and are not modifiable.

So what are the different opinions in cyberspace on DCLW?

Anyone doing a basic Google search on the product will see two websites come out at the top of the search results. One is from Chuck Huckaby at work-at-home.business-opportunities.biz and the other is from Sydney Johnston at Auction-Genius-Course.com.

Chuck has an article posted in April 2006 about how the product worked for him. He writes:

Dave’s cool little website does everything promised, has good to great follow up support, and costs $97 plus the domain name. I was shocked to start getting money from ebay several times a week thanks to having people visit my website Low Auction Seller.
So far the fact that lots of people have websites with similar content hasn’t hurt. All the money is from free search engine traffic.

Then in August 2006 he posted a follow up post:

But recently I get asked how much money I’ve made with it. I don’t know yet because I still earn money every day… not just when I blitzed an email list sold a bunch of these sites and then never made another cent! I earn it the old fashioned way… promoting it!
For me, ebay has always performed the best as a money maker, not clickbank or Google’s adsense though these have made me money. The lowest day so far has been $0… but really, you knew that didn’t you? You didn’t think there was some site you could buy like this that never had a down day? If you did, you’ll just have to get real. Unless you have a zillion member email list or want to pay for pay per click ads.
Using free promotion it’s been up to over $50 per day. I’m hoping it will hit $100+ days soon and I’ll tell you if that happens. It’s been great. Are there so many the market is now flooded? I don’t know. I don’t care as long as I keep making money really

These two posts seem to be a bit contradictory. The first post he states that “all the money is from free search engine traffic” while the second post he says “I still earn money every day…the old fashion way…promoting it!”

Well which is it? Does Chuck make money through search engine traffic or through advertising his site?
