An honest review of Top Secret Magic Code

By Alex on July 29th 2008 - 1 comment

Just so you know right off the bat, I am not impressed with this $39 E-book. I got an email from John Sinclair, nice and short with his link. When I read the page about Top Secret Magic Code, I knew it had to be too good to be true, but I had to be sure. Besides, $39 in an attempt to begin making thousands per week was too good to pass up. All my attempts to find any honest review of this E-book failed, which is why I decided I need to write this article.

One of the main points he stresses is "This isn't AdSense". I would sure hope not, because if you're selling an E-book for $39 showing me how to install AdSense, I would be even more pissed off that I was. That tipped me off that this "secret code" was most likely similar to AdSense, and I'm always looking for new high-paying ad networks. Still extremely skeptical, but if he found a diamond in the rough, it might be worth a look.

Of course there was no diamond in the rough. Just a list of ad networks that most publishers already know about. What's so magic about the code on these ad networks? Nothing. It's just a snippet of code generated by the ad company for you to put on your website.

He even says it won't interfere with your current ad units. While this is technically true, it's rather deceiving. Most of us have a couple ad units set up on our websites. If you don't want to affect your current ad networks, you have to add another ad slot on your website. It's not just some magic code that makes you money without doing or changing anything, that's for sure.

I'm not sure I'm allowed to just share the "trick" he's hiding about these ad networks, but it's nothing new. Here's a similar ad network he didn't list, AdsDaq. They are a CPM advertising network, and you get to decide how much you make per thousand impressions. That's it. Set your own price to make more money.

Like I said before, if something seems too good to be true, it probably is. He had a great marketing page with a timer saying this E-book will only be sold for 3 days! Oh no! On top of that there were testimonials (real, I don't know) of people making thousands overnight. For only $39, I had to buy it and put an honest review out there. Hopefully more people won't be suckered into spending that much for this good, but very well known advice. If you want to check out the page yourself, click here.

I agree with all the above, as it is my opinion after I read this e-book, nut the sales page went very far describing it.
