Autosurf Dummy

Got this letter a few days back from the buyer of AlertPayPro, Harrolds Media, but haven't got time to comment.

The background of Harrolds Media is highly suspectible and a lot of questions like refunds and the handling of ID verifications which members have submitted are not answered.

The period in which members can collect the profit is now an unknown with the new system as they will have to depend on the program's ability to attract advertising dollars to achieve the (locked-in) profit. Gross profits doesn't seem to be affected but if you are talking about ROI over the same period as APP's rates, this is definitely going to be very much lower.

Will this work? Nobody knows, as the program will need around 3 weeks to implement but Autosurf Dummy thinks if they are so confident of this system, why don't they start afresh instead of picking up the pieces?

Re: A revolution

Harrolds Media is pleased to announce the acquisition of AlertPayPro we hope
this transition will be smooth and that we could have the same repor with you
and the previous management has had. Some of you may recognize us from our
online casinos, offline media/advertising and billboard advertisements. We have
some major announcements and improvements to the autosurf industry as a whole.

The first topic to address, the current autosurf business model is flawed.
Having a set percentage for affiliate earnings is the flaw. Unless autosurfs
correct this flaw they will fail. As you may have noticed the maximum lifespan
of an autosurf is approx 6 months, this is because paying a set percentage will
cause the autosurf to instantly run in the red upon opening its doors. Selling a
$5 advertising package will result in the owner paying $7.50 back. A $2.50 in
the red from the first sale. A company can not operate in the red for long
especially a company which sells their first item and is instantly in the red.
Unless the company itself is making money it will eventually consume itself.
Autosurfing could be the next major form of advertising for brand name
companies. The potential is huge if the industry changes to a true affiliate and
advertising network.

Here is how an autosurf could continue indefinitely:

Typical internet definition of an advertiser: someone who pays a company or
individual to promote their site and or product.

Typical internet definition of an affiliate: someone who is paid to promote,
view, click or otherwise show advertisements and get paid by doing so. (a
promoter for advertisers)

Using the above premise, this is what all autosurf members are: either
advertisers, affiliates or both.

A pay per click search engine is an affiliate/advertisers network.The advertiser
pays the search engine .02 per click they receive. The search engine hires
affiliates to also promote those links on their sites, and pays the affiliates
.01 per click. The affiliates earnings are based on the advertisers spends. Both
the search engine and the affiliate get 1 of the 2 cents and the advertisers
receives his/her advertising.

The above example with a pay per click search engine is an example of how an
autosurf has to be run in order for both the affiliates and owner to make money.
Which is essential for the company to continue.

How an autosurf should be run:
1. Take the amount of advertising dollars from the previous day. Divide that
total among the number of advertising packages in circulation (subtract 5% for
the administration.) That total will give the value of each advertising packages
for that days surfing. ie. $10000 in advertising purchases comes in on a given
day. There are currently 9000 advertising packages in circulation. $10000
divided by 9000 = $1.11 - 5% = $1.06 per advertising package. This is what each
affiliate/advertiser will earn per advertising package that they own for surfing
that day. So if an affiliate owns 1 advertising package they would have earned
$1.06 for surfing that day. If they owned 10 advertising packages they would
have earned $1.06 X 10 = $10.60 for surfing that day.

2. If an advertising package has a number of days limit then you may earn too
much or too little by the time it expires. So advertising packages must have a
dollar amount as the expiration date. Each advertising package will expire only
after you have earned $7.50 from the $5.00 advertising package. Each individual
advertising package will remain active until it has earned $2.50 PROFIT.

AlertPayPro is now under this new earnings system. This may take us up to three
weeks to complete, we estimate much less time but we will not cross ourselves as
the previous managment has. We have also purchased another (most consider #1)
autosurf and will be implementing the new model on that one as well. While we
are willing to help other owners move/transition to the new system, we will not
answer queries regarding this. Once all is completed on both of the new sites we
have acquired we will then offer the new system on the open market.

Affiliates and Advertisers on AlertPayPro will receive updates as we convert
AlertPayPro to our system. We are also auditing the AlertPayPro database to
remove the errors that may or may not have been caused by the previous
management. Our other autosurf company which we have purchased will be announced
also in the next few weeks.

Take notes, the autosurf industry is changing.
Harrolds Media Inc.,

We have also purchased all of the intellectual property rights to the
AlertPayPro randomizer and no one, not even the previous owners are allowed to
sell that product. If you purchase our randomizer from them or anyone else
please inform us, a reward will be made if we find our intellectual property has
been stolen or used without permission. We have not only purchased the new
randomizer technology but also improved on that randomizer itself; randomizer
with RV3.01 can be seen stand alone at http:/urbanrandomizers.com. The ross tech
randomizer was an improvement on the old randomizer. We have improved that one
even more, to a randomizers true potential.
