The reason it doesn't rank for its name, and never will, is because google hates paid wikis. MDW ranked for its name for months until about two weeks ago it was canned to page 8.

no fixin' that im afraid

You had us at "Its no good complaining".

Take a piece of your own advice will you.

Its no good complaining when people point out the fact you don't rank in google for the name of the site.

Your site is very weak, thats why you still don't rank, you should have done something about it instead of moaning about the people pointed it out. If you had done your job properly you would be no. 1 for the term by now... it is hardly a copetitive term is it?? But a few weeks later you are still not even on the front page.

The reason you got slated was because you were perceived as a scammer plain and simple.

None of the people who wrote about your site knew each other, or were part of a syndicate... but many reached similar conclusions independently, by consensus.... that MEW was a scam....

I think the people who slated it did know what they were talking about and MEW fully deserved its "aura of negativity"....

he set up the affiliate program, while not an improvement on the actual site is a good way to make sure that it continues to stay viral, web 2.0 and word of mouth will only get you so far with paid services in this day and age, you need pushy sales people!

He also set up the nice competition of giving away the itouch, which is a nice way to reward your buyers.

"Lewis: Somebody should really tell you not to talk about things you have no clue about. Makes you look silly."

Makes me look silly? Who's the idiot who asked if adding yourself to your own personalised Google page would get you a PR 8 link. That's got to be the most stupid idea I've ever heard. Don't you think that if everyone saw the same page it wouldn't be "personalised"?

"Follow a successful trend and try and improve"

Apart from renaming it to Euros, how the hell has he improved it? It's just an even-worse clone of it.

I will raise some valid points here in the defense of Mr Cow.
Making a successful site does cost ALOT of money. I'd say a large part of Mr Cow's creativeness "IS" unique. He didn't rip off an idea. He's doing what many others have done.. Follow a successful trend and try and improve. I can attest to the cost of making a site successful as we're one of the large sites Mr Cow is advertising on and we're not going to say we're gouging Mr Cow but he does spend ALOT of money to make his ideas bigger and he does care about his projects along with his readerbase. Mr Cow believes in what he's saying and he's some wisdom about him. We've had many lengthy discussions about viability, and seo. He know's his marketing. You cannot butcher a cow for having some brains to go along with the cud and tail.
Million Euro Wiki is as viable a marketing tool as any other traffic site and should not be underlooked as a viable marketing tool for those purchasing the pages. The web is changing. So is marketing.

Thanks for listening to our view.

Keep up the good work Mr Cow!

James Wilcox — Thu, 04 Oct 2007 14:03:10 -0000

I've never seen so much controversy from a new site...I mean only a week and people are up in arms over PR? My blog has been up since May and is still a PR0 and my other blog has been up for over a year and is only a PR3. My web design company has been online since 2001 and is only a PR3...length of time is only part of how Google ranks PR so let's just drop that argument.

As for $100 being expensive...that's a relative point of view. If you don't make enough for $100 to be considered an investment then you shouldn't be doing anything on the internet. I bet loads of people spend $100 a month on lattes at Starbucks. So it's all perspective. If you don't think it's a good investment, then don't buy it. It doesn't give you the right to slander and libel. In fact, if I were JC I would be discussing things with a lawyer because you haters are potentially damaging his business by spreading rumors and lies.

Personally, it was a great investment. It paid off for me after the 50th page sold...$90 for an iPod Touch. I think JC got the short end of the stick there. Just my .02

Angel, if you have to ask about my celebrity status...

Re: Million Euro Update

Angel — Thu, 04 Oct 2007 03:00:23 -0000

I don't understand who Mubin is. Is he famous too?

Re: Million Euro Update

John Cow — Thu, 04 Oct 2007 02:13:01 -0000

Now, where's that shirt Laura :twisted:

Re: Million Euro Update

Laura Martin — Thu, 04 Oct 2007 01:46:49 -0000

SO Mubin and I both get codes, awesome!
PropertyIreland- you are sweet, to me atleast, so thank you!
Angel- I'm not sure if people here are following the show, but I have a feeling a few prolly just went to check it out cause of the comments ;)

Re: Million Euro Update

Mubin — Thu, 04 Oct 2007 00:49:21 -0000

Thanks for the backup Laura, C'mon now COw you know you have to give me an affiliate code now! I mean even someone famous has asked you to do it for me. If you don't do it now, I think I and the rest of your readers will take this as insult to all people that hate pedophiles!

As for propertyireland, I think he is now just rephrasing your answers to raise more doubt, I have lost my respect for him, his first round of questions were reasonable in the way that they looked like genuine concerns.

Now it seems he is just spiteful.

Does anyone actually watch The Next Internet Millionaire?

COW: in responce to "you did not cancel the ad. We did, remember?"
please read over your posts. You offered a refund & I accepted, I actually asked for it in the end.

as for your other comments, see below.

-We never showed MEW stats except for the publicly accessible Alexa stats.

fair enough, why not show proper tracking stats now?

-All our domains are registered for 1 year, all on auto-renewal. Why would we spend a ton of money all at once and pay 20 years in advance? That’s just silly.

In my experience, domains cost more if you register them year by year, If you are serious about an idea, why opt for the more costly option?

-As for the code, you’re wrong again. You can’t just copy it freely because a large part has been custom coded. We paid good money to get this setup like it is.

In my own opinion, if you paid to get the MEW to look like it is now, you wasted your money, but that is just my opinion, not something to bitch about...

-Putting doubt in peoples minds with twisted facts, wordplay and assumptions all the time. You’ve become a persona non grata because you can’t play nice.

What twisted facts have I brought up? & as for not playing nice??? are we all expected to lick up your cow dung because we read your blog? or are we entitled to our own objective opinions?

-We’re puzzled why we keep having to “defend” ourselves from your false accusations and twisted facts.

again, what false accusations are you talking about?

-Just one question remains: Is this entertainment to you?
Yep, it is, seeing anyone trying to dupe their readers is entertainment....

And, p.s. delighted to see Laura onboard here, Laura, you are hot!

Re: Million Euro Update

John Cow — Wed, 03 Oct 2007 16:30:53 -0000

Oooh, you're good. No wonder you made the show. Ok, well give you an affiliate code too.

Re: Million Euro Update

Laura Martin — Wed, 03 Oct 2007 16:27:00 -0000

That would mean someone besides me gets a code and I'm stuck without a shirt...
Hmm.. Let me think this over..

Re: Million Euro Update

John Cow — Wed, 03 Oct 2007 15:30:13 -0000

Laura, you give us your Shoemoney shirt and we'll give Mubin his affiliate code. Deal?

Re: Million Euro Update

Laura Martin — Wed, 03 Oct 2007 15:24:15 -0000

Hey Cow, as the most famous cow reader I think you should get Mubin his affiliate code and instead of asking people to donate milk money, why don't you ask for salt lick money :) Cows drinking milk? Sounds a bit cannibal, incestuous like.. Oh and maybe, just maybe, I'll give you my Shoemoney shirt haha

Re: Million Euro Update
