I received an email from Pete for another of his miracle products. I made the mistake of buying a suite of his products like Brainstorm Generator which has never worked, Extreme Live blog generator, Yahoo 360 generator, Geocities page generator, GooglePages generator and Blogger blog generator. They have never consistently worked and they were never consistently updated. Now he is creating a BADASS Brute Force SEO Software that apparently incorporates all the above into one cute little GUI interface.
Eff if I’m going to buy the thing.
I figure I’ve already bought it. I’ve got most of the programs that are built into the damn thing. They don’t work. I’m not forking out more money to buy some POS that won’t work and he won’t support after a few months.
The dude releases more product than any body else in marketing. He sure has his supporters. His testimonials are page after page of “I made my first $1000 today”. Whatever. I’ve read some of those reports he writes. They are confusing and horribly written. Who cares you say. It’s the content that is important. The content ain’t that great either IMO. He writes a half ass report for $9 then follows it up with an advanced report for $17 then software and memberships to automate everything. And around and around you go.
He has this fantastic new offering for RSS feed submissions. Like most of his advertisements I can’t figure out what the hell he is talking about, but his testimonials brag about their sites getting indexed in minutes. And they pay a monthly fee for the privilege. I do the same thing for free writing a blog post on Wordpress.com. It amounts to only one backlink unlike his system which promises more. But damn if I’d trust using his submitter thing. You might get indexed but you might get banned. I know. Not likely. But isn’t Google proving to be pretty damn smart? If you read through one of his testimonials someone wrote about how great his software was but how do you keep Squidoo, Wordpress and Blogger from banning all those new sites? Um, yea.
I wouldn’t be so hard on the guy’s stuff if the shit that I’ve bought from him previously was worth a crap. But it isn’t. It is junk. I can’t for the life of me understand why no one takes him to task for it. I guess it’s because he keeps things so damn cheap and makes promises that people are desperate to hear. He’s the best marketer I’ve ever read.
Hell maybe his latest BADASS shit is the bomb. Maybe it really is good. From the beginner (sucker) report on up to the software and memberships. I really couldn’t care less and I’m not taking a chance on the BADASS stuff. His previous stuff is crap and he doesn’t support what he makes. Much less improve it. Why think any of this is going to be any different?
I swore after he had his Brainstorm Generator special (that I bought) and it never worked, ever, then all that other POS software started breaking down, that I’d never buy from him again. I’d send an email for help and it would be, “well, it works fine on my computer.” And if you’ve used those programs you’ll know how aggravating it is to load them up with articles only to have the software not be able to create the sites. Time consuming waste of time.
I guess I am the moron because it seems as though a ton of people believe otherwise and keep sending him money. I’ve bitched about Pete’s WSOs before but decided to go ahead and post a cautionary note about this stuff again. I’ll keep doing what I’m doing and continue to ignore all this WSO noise. But I sure would like to make $1K a day. Sure is tempting isn’t it?

I’m showing you ranking #1 right now for the term “BADASS BRUTE FORCE SEO SOFTWARE”. That’s pretty funny.

Guess he hasn’t used his BADASS software to promote his BADASS software. Doesn’t make much sense does it? But it is pretty funny.
What really cracks me up is if you search for “Pete’s WSO” you’ll find him ranked #1 advertising his “software specials”. #2 is me with the title “Pete’s WSO’s = Waste of Money”. Seems about right.

Ha Ha Pete….another DIS-satisfied buyer of your crapola. I too bought the bad ass software, regular and advanced reports, etc.
It could have been written in chinese for all the sense it made to me. The only saving grace was I asked for my money back before the 30 days ran out. And I did get a partial refund.
At lease that took out some of the sting.

I actually got burned by peter drew’s crap software a while back. Most of it doesn’t even work and the stuff that does is so full of bugs that it takes the “auto” out of automation

Splork,
I put in a link to your site on my random blogroll for the keywords “Badass Brute Force SEO Software”. That should help.
Splork // Jul 23, 2008 at 5:54 pm
Thanks Frank. That’s awesome. I think I’ll blast the link around BMD and some of my other sites too just to eff with ‘em. Cool idea.

I have bought most of Pete’s WSO and generally they have bugs in them. However, I have also contacted him multiple times in which he provided a resolution.
Just my two cents. Instead of complaining about his software, have you tried contacting the guy?
Splork // Jul 24, 2008 at 6:31 am
Yep.
And yet his software remains buggy. No more purchasing from me. Granted this is my experience. If the 9 people reading this blog want to spend their money on buggy software, it matters not to me.

You just saved me a whole lot of money. I just wished I saw this blog about a week ago because to be quite honest his ideas leave alot of question marks. Like creating multiple Blogs automatically and linking them all to your money sites. Isnt that like Dead Blog Walking in Googles eyes. Then he doesnt even organized the shit alot of his stuff is incomplete sentences and sentences that start like right in the middle of the dam page lol i couldnt believe the format but he did admit he hated PDF’n his reports but dam come on now lol

I came across with Pete’s WSO little while ago and bought his RSS software as well as some of his reports. i don’t know about you guys and i don’t mean to defend him either but the fact remains that 8 weeks after i set up one of my affiliate websites using his RSS method with the software, i got PR3 and currently getting around 200 unique visitors a day. And bottom line I made $1600+ through the simple affiliate site.
Also I somehow never had major issue with the software, yet i had some small issues so i contacted Pete quite a few times but he always came back to me with an answer within 24 hrs. Anyways they are the facts i experienced.

That’s cool Mitch. Everybody’s mileage varies. There has to be some satisfied customers else he wouldn’t be as successful selling his products. I just know my own experiences and will never be a customer again.
