30 Day Challenge Comment Spamming
I have been taking part in 30 Day Challenge this year before I went to Russia and Germany for a few weeks. For those of you who do not know what the thirty day challenge is about, it is basically a 30 day training to get you on your way to make your first dollar online. It is let by some internet Gurus like Ed Dale, Andy Jenkins, and more. This is my second year taking part not because I do not make money online, but because there is always something new to learn.
Even when guys like Aaron Wall take shots at 30DC I did not believe some of the accusations. I have learned a lot from the program, but recently I have gotten something on one of my blogs that has made me question their tactics. The screen shot below will show exactly what I am talking about.
Here is a little background information so you understand exactly how damming this would be. In the training videos 30 DC uses the keyword “vintage electric guitars” to show you how you can market a product by using SEO strategies to gain traffic.
One of the most commonly used and most annoying Black Hat ways to gain SEO ranking is to use comment spam. Basically you create a script that leaves comments on blogs such as this. Usually they are pretty easy to spot because they are poorly written, too general, or irrelevant.
The following comment was found on one of my skin care blogs.
Here I am thinking they are teaching legit techniques, but on the side they are sending out comment spam. The truth is to compete you have to use some shady techniques or else you won’t last in this business.

Hi Alexander
You may have missed the http://www.thirtydaychallenge.tv episode where Ed talked about the “peanuts” (IDIOTS) who are masquerading as him. He told everyone to ignore ANY comments that appeared to come from him during the challenge, and it would seem also any from people pretending to come from that blog.
when you think about it, blog commenting could come form anywhere.
Your spam comment comes from
IP : 66.41.53.207 Neighborhood
Host : c-66-41-53-207.hsd1.mn.comcast.net OK
Country : United States
And Ed and the gang are most definitely Australian and European, not from the USA.
Alas there are idiots out there that love to spoil a good thing.
Always do what your conscience and morals tell you when posting comments and developing backlinks. If you know you are contributing nothing then don’t bother doing it
