Busting the SBI Myths – Only SBI Affiliates Like It

Tagged Under : , ,

There was recently a firestorm of posts and comments about Site Build It initiated by unscrupulous people claiming to offer reviews of SBI that were really just attacks gauged to elicit anger and indignation from SBIers, thus bringing traffic to the sites and making it look to Google as though the sites actually had something of value to offer. Dozens of SBIers unwittingly enabled this strategy to succeed.

One of the wild claims made by the interlinked bloggers who started the firestorm was that the only people who are positive about SBI are those who are affiliates, meaning they’re paid to say nice things about SBI through their affiliate commissions. They went on to say that most of the SBI review pages on the net were written by people wanting to make a buck through their SBI affiliate links.

This SBI myth — or false claim — is a bit harder to disprove, because you can never really know for sure what is in the mind of someone whose writing you read on the Web. People can say anything they want and without body language or facial expression, it’s much harder to judge the tone of their written words.

But I read what the slammers I mentioned above said, especially the original blogger, and she clearly had no idea what she was talking about. She had many errors in her so-called review of SBI that made it clear she’d never even used SBI. So it was hard for me to see that what she and her ilk were accusing SBI affiliates of was much different. But I digress.. Read the rest of this entry »

The Cult of SBI

Tagged Under : ,

I’ve been on a few blogs and forums around the Web lately and I keep reading about the cult of SBI. People, some of them the same ones who claim Site Build It is a scam, also claim that people who love Site Build It and aren’t afraid to say it with passion must be in some kind of Site Build It cult.

Here are the arguments I’ve seen put out there for the cult theory:

  • SBI’ers speak out in unison when others say negative things about Site Build It. I’m one of those who have done that, and yes, it does happen. But we aren’t “defending our faith”. How do we know to speak out in the first place? Well, SBI’ers love their SBI forum. It’s a nonjudgmental gathering place where you can always find a kind word and just the help you need when you need it. Anyway, Dr. Ken Evoy, the founder of Site Build It, monitors all mentions of SBI on the Web, and if he sees someone slamming SBI unfairly, then he lets the forums know. Some of us feel motivated to set the record straight with the bashers.
  • SBI’ers use the same wording and phrasing to defend SBI. That is sometimes true, but it’s due more to the fact that we’ve all been through the same basic educational process about the same product. It’s not brainwashing; it’s just a common frame of reference. I’ve heard the same kind of unison from iPhone lovers, MAC users or even from those who love a particular dance craze or musical genre.

Is Site Build It a Scam?

Tagged Under : , ,

It seems that when a program or product or service is wildly successful and when its customers love it, people start screaming “Scam”. “Site Build It is a scam!”

Apparently, our world is so negative and we’ve been ripped off so often, that many of us find it hard to believe that a company might actually deliver on its promises and that the price we pay for it is worth it. Is this true of SBI?

Well… do a Google search on Site Build It scam and you’re going to find more than a few rants from people claiming unequivocally that SBI is a scam. And to my eyes, that’s a real shame. Because nothing could be further from the truth.

Let’s look at the definition of a scam. In simple terms, it’s basically the same as a fraud. But, a more detailed definition tells us a scam is a fraudulent business scheme meant to victimize or deprive its victim by deceit. In other words, it is an attempt to intentionally mislead a person or persons (known as the mark) usually with the goal of financial or other gain.

I think, if you’ve been skulking around the Internet with the intention of building a money-making website for very long, you’ve probably experienced at least a few instances of Internet marketing scams. Sales pages that proclaim, “Make money while you sleep…”, “$50,000 in 30 Days without spending a dime!” and the like. Nine times out of ten, those so-called gurus either outright lie about their results and the methods used to achieve them, or they omit key steps in the equation.

How many ebooks and video learning programs have you bought that left you high and dry when you were finished? If you’re like me, more than you care to admit to. It’s a common experience in those of us who long to become our own boss and make money from home… unfortunately. And there are any number of true scammers just waiting to take your money.

Is SBI one of these scam companies? I don’t believe so. Here’s why… Read the rest of this entry »
