Hello!
There have been a couple of comments wondering if I have abandoned the site, no Ihaven’t! I have been super busy and have only have time to approve comments, not write anything.
I have just over 150 pending now so we will see what happens and I will let you know!
Sorry about the lack of posts but it seems there has been good discussion anyway!

My Thoughts
I know most of the visitors are coming to this page to see if Affiliate Junktion is a scam or not. Basically in the end, Affiliate Junktion is a well set up program (designed to make a lot of money for those who made it), easy to set up yourself, step by step instructions and generally good support. Don’t expect to make a million dollars with it though. Leads are not that easy to come by if you don’t advertise big, but there is the potential to make a little bit of money.
As I said before, the big money here is obviously for those who set up the program, and fair enough too, it’s probably not that easy. If you want to try it, at the worst you end up with some decent web hosting, who so far I have had no problems with and even accessed their technical support a couple of time. I’m fairly new to this game, but I am exploring other options too, I am close to reaching the 150 mark, and therefore I should make my money back and slightly more, with very little advertising money spent at this stage.
I doubt they will honour the guarantee of 150 per day, there is lots of fine print and at the end of the day I didn’t spend much on advertising and haven’t promoted it at full force, so I probably don’t qualify for that (as most of you out there won’t). So far nothing suggests to me that they won’t pay, everything has been smooth for me and I will let you know next month if they honor the payment.
Don’t be fooled though, this is little more than a pyramid scheme, at the bottom you get web hosting, and that stops it being one. If you jump on quick, possibly big, if you are prepared to spend big. But eventually leads will dry up, like all programs similar to this. That is OK though, its how it works. I wish everyone who has jumped on the best of luck getting out of it what you can, while you can!

Interesting Stuff
An intriguing comment from one of our readers. Remember they are new though, and can change their policiy whenever they like. It did always say NZ dollars.I can’t find the place where it states you must have the account up and running for 45 days…
This comment may not be directly related to the last post, but I believe it to be of value anyway.
There have been some changes. On the AffiliateJunktion.com website the signup bonus is now $75. However, when you click on the “Sign Up” button, you’ll see that on the left-hand side it says, “Join today & receive a $25 Sign Up Bonus “.
Something I hadn’t noticed before, but maybe it is new, is that in the “terms of service” on the signup page it says, “Referral Fee Payments: Affiliate Junktion will pay a referral fee payment in NZ dollars for the applicable referral fees on the 20th day of each calendar month…”
New Zealand dollars? Did it always say this?
And when did the following change? “Qualifying for first commission payment: To qualify for first commission payments, you are required to be registered with our affiliate program and operate an active and approved account for a minimum of 45 days.”
And lastly, when you actually try to sign up and try to confirm your e-mail address, it doesn’t seem to work…

Annoying
How annoying, the Pro Plus plan on ipower web is now 4.95 per month. Boo. See here.
Oh and is anyone else having trouble accessing their control panel for ipowerweb…or is it just me?
EDIT: Looks like the server was just down for half an hour. All is good and back up now. So anyone else out there get paid? We want to hear your views!! I am still stuck under the limit so I cannot tell you for sure.

Spend…
Gotta spend money to make money? This can only go so far still with no other products to sell.
I got paid! And right on time. $9322 for the month, I did pay about $1500 on googlle adwerds and bought the key word tool for about $170. They sometimes do take longer to reply to inqcuiries but never longer then 2-3 days.

Credit where credits due…
Well to their credit I have had all my emails answered now. One of the links from the fast track e-book didn’t work and they sent me the link to click on. Need more details from people that actually got paid to be convinced that they will pay you. All my dollars are still pending, but as Rahil said, I now have details (IP’s) from people who have got leads from me under my transaction page. Will be interesting to see where this goes.

Get Paid?
Well its the 20th. I would love to hear form people that got paid. I certainly didn’t, but I’m stuck on $111 bucks so there’s my reason. Did all the advertising, had some qn’s as i couldn’t get some going and haven’t had any reply. So, if you managed to get above 150…did you get paid? (we have one commenter saying they did…over 2000 bucks!) Although its a pyramid scheme maybe it pays anyway….hehe. What are all your thoughts??? Imagine if I said positive things about this program, the amount of hits I’m getting on this blog I would be a millionaire..meh.

News
One of our readers posted this comment
i also join this program about 6 days back and got my site up and ready..http://www.moneyfrom-net/
before investing some extra bucks i asked few qustions from mr. michael..CEO of affiliate junktion
Q- define sign up
A- any one who provides his name and email address for registration and then clicks the confirmation link sent to there mail thus confirming there registration is called a sign upQ-why my leads are in pending status even when my referrals have clicked the confirmation link and comleted there registration process
A- all the leads goes under system check and will be finalised by the month arnd 20th of every month till then they will remain under pending statusQ- i am having diffuculty in gettin sign ups as people are askin how can copany give such huge commissions when the company does not have any source of income or any product to sell
A-We are working with multiple merchants in our affiliate network, this way
we provide the commission payment structurewell this satisfies u a bit…but still lots left to be answered
can anyone anwer this to me
1-from how long has this program is on net?
2- has anyone ever recieved any payment from this company?
Yes it is all comforting words. It would be nice if they suggested what multiple merchants they were using. This kind of thing can only go on for so long, there are only so many people in the world, they need other products to sell if they want to be even remotely legitimate. And yes, has anyone been paid yet?? I am 20 leads off the minimum they say you need (150 bucks) to get paid, obviously this blog doesn’t help my conversion rate so much!!! HA. In fact in the last three days I have signed up only 2 people. So if anyone out there has made the minimum let us know if you get paid. Oh, and I will find out if you are someone from the company.

Comments 2
Again check out all my recent comments. Some good discussion going on. There is definitely something not right with it. It is totally a pyramid scheme. My assumption was they had something else to sell, other than leads, that that was simply another form of commission. There isn’t.

Pyramid Scheme…??
So after joining it and going through a few things and doing a bit of research on things like this as I am VERY new to it…there is basically no product. Which makes this a pyramid scheme, right??
The Fraud
The problem is that the scheme cannot go on forever because there is a finite number of people who can join the scheme (even if all the people in the world join). People are deceived into believing that by giving money they will make more money (”with an investment of just $100, you will receive $900 in return”). But no wealth has been created; no product has been sold; no investment has been made; and no service has been provided.The fraud lies in the fact that it is impossible for the cycle to sustain itself, so people will lose their money somewhere down the line. Those who are most vulnerable are those towards the bottom of the pyramid, where it becomes impossible to recruit the number of people required to pay off the previous layer of recruiters. This kind of fraud is illegal in the Unites States and most countries throughout the world. It is estimated that 90% of people who get involved in a pyramid scheme will lose their money.
Some help please….does this mean this is illegal? Or have they fond a loophole. I mean, they aren’t selling a product, just simply the right to recruit more people. Would appreciate some discussion on this. My account is still all in pending mode, nothing has been approved, even though I have made back what I paid for hosting…for those that have signed up like me, I hope you were in the same situation and needed the hosting so it is not waste of your money.
…PERHAPS…its not illegal in New Zealand. HA.
