ReviewMe's 5-Star 'Generals'

I got a shocking revelation recently when John Chow (60th on Technorati), 'thanked' ReviewMe for restoring his rightful fifth star as a blogger. In that post, he told us how there were only three of them in that elite club of 5-star bloggers, on the ReviewMe network.

The other two are Jeremy 'Shoemoney' Schoemaker (69th on Technorati), and Performancing (23rd on Technorati). This revelation triggered my curiousity, so I went headlong to dig up the mystery arithmetic of rating and ranking by Reviewme. This is the outcome of my protem findings.

I found out SEVEN REASONS why the Top 20 or most popular bloggers in the world, by Technorati rankings, did not participate in the ReviewMe network, and these are the first three salient reasons (the second part- 4 Reasons, would be the subject of another posting):

1. The elite bloggers have all carved a niche for themselves in the blogosphere. Some of them blog for fame and for fulfillment of their passions, and not for miserly money (if you consider $250 share per review for the biggest bloggers- John Chow currently earns $200).

2. To 'divert' into openly disclosed paid reviews, would cause a 'social riot' on these popular blogs by their loyal readership base.

3. Others among them earn so big incomes and patronage that, they would not want to descend to the meagre offers of a relatively new network like ReviewMe. For example, Jeremy Schoemaker who earns over $130,000 mointhly from Google Adsense network alone, would not bend to the ReviewMe opportunity.

He (Shoemoney), living up to his name, unrepentantly outprized his reviews by five-fold ($2,500), virtually more than all bloggers in the ReviewMe network! I doubt if he would ever get any advertiser to give him a nudge.

As ReviewMe grows to reckoning among big advertisers, an offer of 5K to 10K per review may no longer be strange. Maybe, the Top 20 bloggers in the blogosphere would change their mind and join the network, but for now, it is a 'No-go' arena, meant for small and medium level success bloggers. What do you think?

I would write next on, the arithmetic mystery performed by ReviewMe to rank bloggers and why it differs from the traditional metrics used by other stakeholders in the blogosphere.

Also Aaron Nimocks a First Class Petty Officer of the U.S Navy, working on the Tactical Tomahawk Weapon Control System. Who swelled our AGLOCO Hour ranks.

Pls don't forget to send in the screenshot of your Agloco referral network, which includes your referral membership, your Agloco ID and your Accumulated network referral hours to aglocomasses@yahoo.com, and if youhave a blog or website include it in your message so we could point a link to you.

John Chow Rocks Agloco Hours!

I had waited since June 4, when Agloco Viewbar was launched to see how the Big Four (David Lawrence 39,514, RZ McCall 36,415, Mr. X 35,525 and our beloved John Chow 19,105) would perform with their mega referral numbers. Would they have corresponding referral hours?

Now, I have a sample of answer from John chow's latest post. To date John has about 19,000+ Agloco referrals and his total network referral Hours accumulated is 2,715.9 Hours.

He calculated that to mean 11.4% of his referral network were actively downloading and using their Agloco Viewbar. This is exactly what I postulated in my earlier posts on the nework activity rate.

I therefore post the update of the Agloco network referral accumulated hours of the following members:

1. John Chow - 19,105 membrs 2,715.9 Hours Get Paid Surfing
2. Mike Klingler - 3,476 membrs 578.8 Hours Get Paid for Surfing
3. Diyana Alcheva (Didi) - 2,656 membrs 518.3 Hours Get Paid for Surfing
4. Aaron Nimocks - 2,190 membrs 251.1 Hours
5. Ansar Hamza - 2,197 membrs 29.7 Hours Get Paid for Surfing
6. Philomena Ojikutu - 212 membrs 8.6 Hours Get Paid for Surfing

Pls don't forget to send in the screenshot of your Agloco referral network, which includes your referral membership, your Agloco ID and your Accumulated network referral hours to aglocomasses@yahoo.com

Agloco Hours Competition Revs Up!

As all AGLOCO members begin to accumulate referral hours, I got another mail from Aaron Nimocks where he showed me the screenshot of his Agloco accumulated hours. He even boasted that his was bigger than that of Ansar Hamza. Aaron (2,190) has about the same referrals as Ansar (2,197), but has grown his referral hours (251.1 Hours), by ten times that of Ansar (29.7 Hours)!

I am hereby showcasing the daily growth of Agloco hours accumulated by everyone that sends me their screenshot. Like I mentioed in an earlier post, it is a healthy rivalry.

The Prize? Of course, people like to join the winning team! The bigger your AGLOCO accumulatedv hours, the higher you climb on the daily Updadate here. That means, visitors (and potential new Agloco members), are more likely click the topmost links (either to your site or your recruitment link), than the lower links.

1. Aaron Nimocks - 2,190 members 251.1 Hours
2. Ansar Hamza - 2,197 members 29.7 Hours Get Paid for Surfing
3. Philomena Ojikutu - 212 memebers 8.6 Hours Get Paid for Surfing


Please, Don't forget to send in your screenshot with your AGLOCO ID to my mailbox aglocomasses@yahoo.com

Viral Feeds Take Over

The blogosphere seems to have been infected by a growth virus which has taken over her fibre, as even the biggest blogging guys like John Chow and others, are not spared by that 'infection'.

First it was Ms. Danielle that showed me the Technotati Favorite Lin Exchange triggered by Gary Lee, followed by Viral*links by Andy Coates, then came the Viral Tags by Jimmy Huen, as well as the Viral Icons or favicons by Ilker Yoldas, now Viral feeds have taken over.

From Telenovela Blog yesterday, I understood that Darin Carter started a viral feeds exchange using the Bloglines as a principal bait.

This is good for Ask Dot Com and Bloglines, but also for us too, as our rating improves dramatically. As for me, my Technorati Authority has gone from 34 to 61 as a result of participating in this viral games in 10 days!

It was significant that ReviewMe did not recognize my blog despite having over 2,300 Feedburner subscribers who daily read my Telenovela blog. This was because I had no single feed subcriber through Bloglines. It took them seven months to acknowledge my blog. That is why Darin's Bloglines experiment would be good for most bloggers wanting to make money with Text-Link Ads and RevieMe on their blogs.

I know of a guy Chuvachienes who went from a Technorati authority of 50 to 236 and whose Alexa Rank went from 4million to 467,244, his Blogworth rose from $27,500 to $133,231.44 all because of the viral tags within two weeks!

That is what I called '... being well-positioned to reap money with blogging!' because these viral growh automatically improves your Google page rank and Technorati rankings, thereby improving your rating with Advertising networks like the TLA, ReviewMe, etc.

So, if you are a blogger, you can follow this instructions by copying and pasting it to your blog too.

***Start Copying Here:***

Here are the rules:

1) If you don’t have a bloglines account, as many of you may now, signup for one, if you do have a bloglines account sign in to your account!

2) For bloggers, you can write a short introductory paragraph about what how you found the Bloglines list and include a link to the blog that referred you, (i.e my Agloco Hours blog, in this case) to the list.

3) COPY the Rules and ENTIRE List below and post it to your blog. To avoid duplicate content and increase the amount of keywords your site can be accessible for, go ahead and change the titles of the blog. Just don’t change the links of the blog.

4) Take the “My New List” and move them into the “The Original List”.

5) Add 3 Blogs that you’ve just added to your Bloglines List to the “My New List” section. Remember to also add the “List the Site link next to your new blogs (i.e. http://www.bloglines.com/sub/http://www.theblogurl.com/feed)

6) Add Everyone on this list to your Bloglines List by clicking on “List the Site.” Those who want good kharma will list you back. If not, you will for sure get the benefits of readers from the bloggers who continue this list after you.

Agloco Boost and Viral Links

The last two weeks have been a season of GROWTH. My Technorati Authority rose and almost doubled from 34 to 61 and I am still counting, ... due to the viral link experiment triggered by some bloggers.

My Agloco Hours has also accumulated to 7.7 hours, (this is apart from my 5 maximum hours permited). This is equivalent to about 13 units of AGLOCO Shares, which also interpretes to $2,600 (two thousand six hundred Dollars) on the stock exchange- When Agloco becomes listed and it grows to $200 per unit of share. Afterall Google was listed three years ago and has grown in leaps and bounds to over $400 per unit of shares

It is time to get on board if you have been 'missing in action', Join now and begin to accumulate the AGLOCO hours because that is what would ultimately be converted to cash for you and I by Agloco. The more Hours your Agloco referrals accumulate, the more share and money you make from Agloco.

I have found out that only about 20% of the people we recruit in the last seven months are really interested to download the Agloco Viewbar, and become active in using it. That is quite sad because those who have tens of thousands recruited would have done so in vain. Particularly those who spend hard cash for Google Adwords campaign to bring referrals on board the Agloco train.

I also found out that those who are newly joining Agloco have an AGLOCO Viewbar download rate of 80%. This means it would be more profitable and productive to recruit and refer new members to AGLOCO, now that the Viewbar has been released than pre-launch period.

My dear friend Ansar Hamza has sent in his AGLOCO accumulated hours too (see table right). Hamsa has 2,197 referrals and has so far gannered 29.7 referral hours so far. If added to his own 5 hours, that makes some 30 hours! equivalent of 3o units of AGLOCO shares (whatever that would be worth soon, when Agloco launches her IPO on the London Stock Exchange-LSE).

Please, send in the screenshot of your Agloco accumulated hours to aglocomasses@yahoo.com and let us begin a healthy money-making competition. I assure you that I would regularly post updates on the growth of your agloco hours with a link to your agloco recruting page.

Keep up the volume and value!
