What's up marketers? So, in this video I'm going to do something slightly different.
I'm actually going to give you an idea of marketing techniques. They're called
blackhat marketing techniques. I'm going to show you three blackhat marketing
techniques to avoid using. Now, do not use these blackhat marketing techniques. I'm
going to show you 3 of them. And I'm also going to be explaining exactly what is
blackhat marketing. And I'll be talking a little bit about why do people use
blackhat marketing techniques. And I'll like be explaining to you why you
shouldn't use any of these techniques. And you should avoid them at all cost.
Now, let's get into the video. I'll be showing you these. And I'll also be going
on my computer and showing you some examples of blackhat marketing
techniques that you need to be wary of. And how they market to people and how to
avoid these sorts of scandalous type of things. Okay, so 3 techniques to avoid.
But before I get into the 3 techniques, I want you to understand what
is blackhat marketing. Now, blackhat marketing it can do one of 2 things. It
can either... It doesn't comply with the rules. You can break the rules.
Okay? Rules are meant to be broken. Rules don't get you in any trouble. If you
break a rule, nothing really bad happens. But some of
these techniques actually break the law. So, blackhat marketing is one of those
things... Some of these techniques depending on what country you're in. They
make break rules and they make break laws. Now, why do people use blackhat
marketing techniques? Now, some people are looking for shortcuts. They're looking
for short term ways to make a lot of money fast. And they don't really care
about rules or the law. And people use these to advertise you know, such things
such as products that are not compliant with a particular ad network.
Or maybe they seek to advertise in ways using landing pages that are
not compliant. Facebook doesn't like pop-ups. So, if you advertise a landing
page or a web page that includes pop-ups or autoplay videos then you're
out of compliance. And that could technically be considered blackhat
marketing on Facebook. But that's not that bad. There are things
that are even worse. And I'll kind of go into those. The reason why you don't want
to use these techniques is because you can get your account banned, okay? Again,
there's no financial or physical repercussions. But you will get
your Facebook account or your Instagram account or your Google account or
whatever account you're using your email account banned. So, you won't be able to
use it anymore. This happens all the time every day. A lot of people do this. And
there's always kind of a constant battle between people using black hat
techniques to grow their YouTube channels super fast. Or to
advertise products that are like guaranteed to make money on Facebook. But
Facebook doesn't allow, right? There's all sorts of things like that that people do
every day in order to make a quick dollar. But again, at the end of the day,
you need to avoid these techniques because you could get your Facebook
account banned or your Instagram account or your Twitter or your YouTube account
banned. And you won't get it back, okay? So, those are the problems with that. Now,
the first black hat technique I'm going to go over is what's called farming or
using farmed accounts. Now, this technique applies to Facebook because Facebook has
a lot of rules. They have a lot of products they don't allow to be
advertised. They don't allow weight loss products to be advertised, for instance.
But if McDonald's or Taco Bell or Burger King want to advertise, they let them all
day, right? But not weight loss products. Facebook also doesn't like products to
be advertised that are network marketing-related. Facebook also doesn't like
products to be advertised that are dating-related. Back in the day if you
remember when Facebook was just 5 years ago, when it was younger, all the
ads were dating ads. And the reason all the ads were dating ads is because
dating ads work. Facebook is a social network. And people who are socializing.
Want to date. Dating ads would be sent to people who were already married saying,
'Hey. Ever thought about cheating on your wife or ever want
fling Ashley Madison?" So, these dating sites blew up because they were
advertising on Facebook. Now, it worked so well it built billion-dollar companies.
But Facebook stopped allowing that because think it's better for their user
experience. So, there's a lot of products not allowed to be advertised on Facebook.
And you'll get banned if you advertise those products on Facebook. But the time
period between when you start advertising or posting links for those
products and when you get banned, you might make an incredible ROI.
Some people I know make... You know, it's not uncommon to hear 1,000% ROI. So,
somebody spends $10 in ads and makes back 100. Somebody spends
1,000 in ads and makes back $10,000. The same day. I even
know people who spend $10,000 a day in ads and make back a
$800,000. And then when Facebook catches on, their account is
banned. And they lose a Facebook account. Therefore there's people out there who
use what's called farmed accounts or they buy hundreds and hundreds of
accounts so that they can just run ads for one day and make that 10
thousand percent ROI until they get banned. Now, an example of a site where
people are buying Facebook accounts is a site sort of like this. Most of them are
based overseas. This is site one of my friends told me
about. And this is an example of a site you want to avoid. Okay? And you can buy
farmed accounts. You can buy aged accounts. And there's a whole tactic and
technique to doing this. You see they have Facebook ad accounts because people
want to make that 1,000% ROI. So, you can get bulk Facebook
accounts or you can get ready to work accounts. And all this terminology
continues to change because it's like a cat and mouse game with Facebook. But
basically, with bulk accounts you have to warm do what's called warming them up.
And with ready-to-work accounts, you have to you can place ads instantly but they
cost more money. There's a lot of scams in the space and
because these people are circumventing their rule circumventers. Or their rule
breakers. You can't necessarily trust any of the companies in this space.
And it's very easy to get scammed. If you were to ever try to do this, It's very
easy to get scammed. There's even companies and software's
that allow you to manage multiple farmed accounts. Because there's people out
there that farm hundreds or thousands of accounts. And there's software companies
which are legitimate software companies. Like cowboy kit right here which cost a
lot of money. And they allow you to manage many accounts at once I think
they may even give you farmed accounts and they give you payment methods. So,
this is a sort of thing... You know, it costs just to start with something like
this which is really kind of the all-in-one solution it costs 1,500
to 3,500 dollars. Not cheap thing to start. But again, the
only people really get this deep into blackhat marketing generally they're
making a lot of money so they can afford it. Now, the next method that I'm going to go
over of blackhat marketing which you want to avoid.. And again, these videos are
purely for entertainment purposes. I do not endorse any of these techniques. And
you should not do them. Okay. Now, what is link cloaking? Now, link cloaking... What it
is once again, it goes beyond the ad account. Is that a lot of these ad
networks, they have rules. They have sorts of ads and they've sorts of landing
pages which they don't allow. And the reason they don't allow them is because
you know, maybe they detract from the user experience. But why do people go
through all this effort to advertise? Them why do people go through all the
effort to advertise these sorts of landing pages? And the reason is is
because once again marketers who've been doing marketing for a long time. I mean,
some of these landing pages, they're scammy. They're using fake testimonials.
There's products that teach people how to make money online. But every one of
the testimonials is fake, right? I'm a real person, I have real students, I have
real testimonials. I'm considered white hat. But there's companies out there that
will fake everything to get create an allure of a product. Maybe it's diet
weight loss pills. Maybe it's skincare that magically works. Maybe they'll use
fake endorsements from like Dr. Oz or Oprah. Which are clearly falsified. But
obviously, if something if Oprah endorsed a skincare product, if Dr. Oz
endorsed a weight-loss product, it would fly off the shelves. Marketers know that
all they need to do is say Tony Robbins endorses this money making method. That
only $47. And it would sell. Right? Tony Robbins said, "This is the
number one way to work from home. I recommend you do this right now."
Many people would buy it and it would work. But he has never done that. Some
marketers know this and they want to advertise those pages. And Facebook
doesn't want them to advertise fake endorsements and fake testimonials and
all that stuff. So, that's why people cloak links. And what link cloaking is?
It's when you make sure that the link... If somebody from Facebook or somebody that
works for Facebook. Or let's just say somebody located in California clicks on
the link. You have a link here that they go to a legitimate looking site. But
somebody who is an on Facebook employee, somebody who's a real prospect sees this
one. So, that there were people reviewing the ads they see a page that looks
perfectly fine that has no fake testimonials, no fake endorsements. And
they say, "Oh, this is nice. They're just teaching people how to write books and
there's no fake endorsements or fake testimonials." Whereas a real American,
300 million people in America go to a page that is loaded with fake
testimonials and fake endorsements. And that's how some of these marketers, they
will buy accounts and they will use cloaked links so that they can get that
thousand percent ROI. And they'll go through... They'll get banned 10 times a
day. You'll have 10 facebook ad accounts banned every day for months. Just so they
can get that high ROI. Now, link cloaking itself is not illegal. There's nothing
illegal about cloaking links. It's simply redirection, okay? It's simply sending
some people to one website and other people to another website. But if you
utilize it on ad networks such as Facebook and Google or Facebook or
Google or whatever, YouTube. Then you can have your ad account banned, okay? So, it
goes against their rules. But is nothing illegal about cloaking
services. That said, these are some companies that are offer kind of
cloaking services. Now, noIPfraud is a company that you will not... You know, it's
it's a very well-known cloaking company. Or very underground. But you can't get
accepted to it unless you are a student of my super affiliate system because it
requires a referral, okay? All of these services are somewhat expensive.
Okay? Now, clicktool is another company that kind of has link cloaking built
into its platform. And this is run by my friend out here in Los Angeles. And very
successful. Extremely successful affiliate marketer --Carlos Cruz. He
currently spends about 5 million dollars per month on Facebook Ads. He
makes a great return. He's an affiliate marketer spending 5 million dollars a
month. Just think about for a second. There's a lot of people
working for him. He has a pretty crazy life. He's a really sick house. I won't go
too much deeper but he's a cool guy. And I endorsed this. And you can get a free
trial of this software. Yeah, you can start with it free. So, as you see, it as
custom domain; all the stuff you need. Now, this last method it's also a little
controversial. Again nothing illegal about this. But if you use it in the
wrong way, you are breaking the rules. And this is utilizing data breaches. So,
what's interesting is maybe you've heard about one of these data breaches that
has happened. You know, LinkedIn got hacked.
Macy's got hacked. Apple got hacked. Myspace got hacked. Every company is
getting hacked. But where does all that data end up from these companies that
get hacked. Well, that data is actually pretty freely
available. They're called breached databases. Some
of that data is resting on forums like this site --raidforums. And there's many
other places where you can find hacked databases or they're called data
breaches. There's nothing illegal about downloading them because it's considered
public data. But what you see here is there's 5 billion emails from over
300 databases here that you can download. These are big files. And
you can simply just download these databases. Look, you have Apple's database
of 350,000 app users that have been hacked. And if you select this, let's look
at this. You could just click download. And you it I think it costs a few bucks
to download it. But you will get device information, the names, the iPads, the
iPhones, the iPods, the device IDs of different people's devices. You can
download the entire Connecticut voter database that was hacked back in 2015
with two million records in it. Again, you click download here. And the data that it
contains is voter IDs full names, date of birth, genders, phone numbers and citizen
status. Here's a database that contains 57 million people in it from a
dating site zoosk which was hacked back in 2015. And this database comprises of
the people's email addresses and their passwords. So, you can download all this
information. But if you use this in any way, you can actually go to jail, okay? If
you try to use this to log into somebody's account, I believe that can be
a violation that can even get you to go to jail. So, all this information is
really it's out there. If you use this information if you upload these email
addresses, let's say you're trying to advertise a dating website and you
upload this information to Google or YouTube or Facebook to target an
audience around, then you can get your account banned. Because it isn't your
information. You didn't collect that information yourself. These people did
not opt in. If you try to send these people an email, you can go to jail
because that is considered spamming. These people never authorized you to
send them commercial email. So once again, avoid these methods. Be aware of them. You
might come across them but these either break the rules or some of them even
break the law. And there's a lot of stuff in here. So, let me know which method is
the craziest to you. Let me know in the chat below or in the comments which
