What happened to the Top Affiliate Challenge?

Tuesday, July 01, 2008

The first episode of the ”Top Affiliate Challenge” aired today and it was quite abysmal. I tried to give it a chance but the production quality… scratch that… the whole effort was crap. As you can tell from my previous posts I wasn’t expecting much. Unfortunately (or should it be fortunately?) I wasn’t able to make it through the Top Affiliate Challenge broadcast. Not because I turned it off, but because it just didn’t work.

Was anyone able to watch the entire show without fail?

Shoemoney claims that it was because their server was bombarded and he says Thor was working on it. It’s now 12:00am and I’m still unable to get past the 15 min mark. We certainly aren’t looking at an overload or “digg” effect. More than likely it’s 10 Shoe and Chow pole smokers, who can’t stop hitting reload, pegging the Angel Fire box in hopes that someone will come on and tell them the secret to IM success.

I know Thor has posted a response on my blog, defending his show. I really feel bad for the gurus and the sponsors. I think John Chow and Shoemoney are okay guys, but this show is just smearing their face in the mud. The sponsors like Pecker Jam, Tool Bag and Ken’s Jewelry certainly aren’t getting their moneys worth.

My plan was to follow the show and critique what was offered up to the public, maybe expand on concepts that were brushed over. I give up on that plan as I see that this show is pathetic, amateurish, and painful to watch. I think I can learn more about making money from Mathew Lesko…

By the way… who decided John Chow was the “black hat of black hats?”. Was he awarded this title for hacking the poor password schema of the TAC blog?

update: I was able to make it through the entire first episode of the Top Affiliate Challenge. For those of you that weren’t as fortunate I will go ahead and share the affiliate tips that were covered in this show.

If I missed any, PLEASE fill me in. Thanks.
