I read a disclaimer that Google the search engine is in no way affiliated with this google profit kit or the other one Google Profits, I have had charges to my bank accounts and am trying to sort them out. I am not sure but I think the charges are coming from me ordering these for $1.00 each. When I contacted one of the charges at my bank, they also credited two other unknown charges that I will put together and see if I can come up with a single source for all of these. Needless to say I am more than frustrated and just mad enough to not stop until I figure this out. There are two charges from Realpromo???? that people seem to think come from a free trial at Realtytrac, but when I checked the Realpro site to see what they do and their business associates, it has to do with Search Engines and Real Estate leads I think, I’m not sure if maybe Realtytrac is not the bad guy here, I won’t know until Monday when I can contact them. The number the bank gave me, I only got a recording of their office hours. I won’t stop until I get to the bottom of this, simply because someone is trying to trick me and others it looks like, and unless someone really puts it all together there is no telling how much money they will make and never be questioned about. This is confusing enough to me let alone people who are busy and have no time to sort this out. My banks have been very cooperative and there were two charges posted wrong, from the Google biz and another using another name for $47.50 each. It looks like when the order is made for Google Profits kit, that is when a charge is made. After all they get our number for $1,00 and run with it. That is why I think it is all tied in. The credit that was made was also the same time the $47.50 credit posted as well. That had a completely different name on my bank transaction page. Still working on this and I will let you know what I find out. ASAP

@Dan

I currently manage many PPC campaigns many worth over $1000 pcm. ‘Never pay more than $20′ is total tosh. It’s totally relative depending on what keywords you bid on and what click through rates you require.

As a catch all rule, more money invested = higher return on investment if your campaign is in the right hands, but obviously its limited by daily searches and cost per click.

But to be honest, there are WAYYYY more effective ways to generate business which involve organic SEO (and MUCH more margin in it for SEM companies)

Hi there ALLAN,

I got here by researching on the subject. Now is it true they’ll charge you $72.21 each month after you submitted your billing info? Is it true they’ll also sign u up for SafeLockID for $19.95 a month and GrantSpring for $14.95 a month? Is it true they won’t tell you but you’ll find out in your bank acct’ s statement?
Boy, call something a scam!
Don’t take my word for sure, but I also found you can call 866-951-1406 Monday – Friday 9am – 5pm to cancel.
It is worth give a try.
Oh, and… keep researching, but beforehand.
Good luck!

I can’t believe that anyone even considers registering their website with a search engine. Even fathoming that idea is asinine. Perhaps it’s brought about by the “time-fighters” of America that assume things have to be manually cataloged, like this is 1960. Please. Wake up and realize the century.

As for the scam though: People will always fall for scams when they are desperate, any con-artist knows that. The only way to prevent people from falling for scams is to prevent people from being desperate… which isn’t possible.

There is no point that Google is making such a huge sum of money by only this keyphrase. Moreover there are loads of free Search engine submission services that are semi automatic and you can choose to submit your site daily to different directories by choosing your category.
