I got better conversions with this free program than with Google Adwords!
Wish they had a targeting system so you could target specific niches
I signed up for FreeViral because when I looked in the logs of my website I noticed that I was getting thousands of hits from a funky little website with a few links on it. One of the links was a banner for FreeViral. I then checked the Alexa rating for FreeViral and wow they were at about 17,000! These dudes were getting some traffic.
I signed up for free and starting promoting the program to the members of Lead Club, TheFreeAdForum.com and to Quickregister.net free search engine submission service members.
Did I get the 1 million visitors they promised? No I got exactly 274. They were real unique visitors not the same people going over and over to the site. You see with FreeViral each person has to wait a few seconds on each of 6 ads before being able to add their own ad. You may say this is incentivized traffic and not targeted. It depends. My market is other marketers. So these visitors are all targeted visitors for me. My conversion rate was 1%. This is better than I get with expensive Google Adwords campaigns! I got 4 sales from those 274 visitors. Very nice. And many also joined my newsletter and I can market to them over and over.
So I have decided this is a worthwhile program to continue to promote. I did see the residual effect of the viral marketing aspect of the program. I still receive hits several weeks after I stopped promoting the program. To be fair they say that you must "properly seed" the program. They mean you must get enough people involved for the momentum to continue.
So far these are exactly my stats:
Webmasters in Level 1 633
Webmasters in Level 2 169
Webmasters in Level 3 16
Webmasters in Level 4 6
Webmasters in Level 5 2
Webmasters in Level 6 0
TOTAL Webmasters in downline: 826
As you see the recruiting aspect kicks in because the first 633 people I recruited recruited people beneath them.
(There is no money exchanged with FreeViral it is a 100% free advertising program.) Of course it gets less and less each level.
I really think the results were quite fair considering the limited amount of resources I used to promote them. If you are marketing something that would appeal to other marketers I think this could really be another nice marketing arrow in your quiver.
One quick warning: If you are using Google Adsense on your pages make a separate landing page for the FreeViral program which does not use Google Adsense. It is against the terms of Adsense to drive traffic to pages with incentivized type of traffic. Even though I got better results with FreeViral than with Adwords!!
