Solutions For The Net

One solution that you should definitely stay away from

Review of the Solutions For The Net program. If you have a website or run on online business, then you know how important it is to be able to get at the top of the search engine listings. This can be especially important if you’re trying some popular money-making services which require you to maintain a website… if you’re not getting traffic, then you’re not making money. Solutions For The Net claims to be able to guarantee good placement and a lot of hits coming in, but if you decide to try them out then you’re looking at nothing but trouble for you (and potentially your visitors as well.)

I thought that their claims sounded a little too good to be true, so I decided to do a little bit of research before I used them to get my site listed in the major search engines. I’m really glad that I did, because Solutions For The Net is nothing but a grade A scam. They’ll put you at the top of the listings, all right… unfortunately, it’s not by getting you placed well with the search engines that they claim to work with. Instead of giving you top search-engine placement, they simply offer a browser plug-in that creates an invisible frame on the same page with the search engine results and then puts your ad that you bought through them in that frame.

Before anyone can even see the ads in the frame they have to download the plug-in in the first place… and in this day of computer viruses and Trojan horses, how many people are going to download some strange plug-in just because you tell them to? (Some of the claims I read even said that the plug-in was spyware or a virus, though I can’t claim that for sure because I didn’t install it just to be on the safe side.)

Even more disturbing, though, were the claims that the usage statistics that the company showcases might be falsified. Apparently some people who have used the service say that the actual visitors that they’ve seen in their website’s logs don’t match up with those that Solutions For The Net provides.

These aren’t small discrepancy claims, either; one individual even claimed that he had no discernable traffic to a website that the service claimed was getting thousands upon thousands of hits over a six month period.

Like I said, I can’t speak from entirely personal experience because I didn’t actually purchase the service… I can base my opinions on the things that I’ve read, and so far the only ones that I’ve seen defending the service are people associated with the service itself.

Anything else that I’ve read about it tells a tale of falsified reports, no actual benefit being given, and a first-rate scam designed to make you think that you’re getting a great service when really all that you’re getting is lip service (or worse, if the spyware and virus claims are even remotely true.)

So do yourself a favor if you’ve been thinking about using Solutions For The Net to help promote your money-making website… don’t do it. Their service isn’t cheap, and everything that I’ve seen points to them being just another huge scam.
