Traffic Geyser – Overpriced…

Posted November 28, 2006 * Comments(17)

Like most ‘Internet Marketing’ tools coming down the line these days the new Traffic Geyser is no different. Traffic Geyser is simply put… a way to submit your videos and audios to multiple services at once.

Let’s Recap What You Get With Traffic Geyser:

    • Massive Traffic to Build Your List & Sell Your Products
    • Unprecedented Search Rankings to Raise Your Profile
    • Hours, Days & Weeks of Extra Time Minus All The Hassle
    • Your Own Multimedia Video Even if All You Have is Audio
    • Your Own Audio Even if All You Have Is A Product or Idea

Ignore the junk bonuses, see through them as the basically worthless stuff they are… if you really need a tool to create online videos get a tool that works like Camtasia, audio?… get one of a hundred free tools out there, record telephone calls? all teleconference services offer this!… please…
OK so you’re going to pay $247 up front plus $47/month to be able to submit a limited 25 videos per month to only 15 sites!?… ok probably worth it instead of spending the time to do it yourself, if you need to submit 25 videos per month… Oh wait if you need to submit 100+ videos/month to 30 sites that’ll be $297 + $97/month…

But the point is, this is a simple tool and it’s not ‘worth’ that kind of money IMHO. I can reproduce it for a fraction of the cost.

Let’s see what kind of bandwidth costs we have here… Let’s assume high and say the average video is 5mb… Uploading it and sending it to 30 sites, 155mb. Average user: 25 videos/month (probably extremely high) – 155mb x 25 = 3875mb =~ 4gb per user per month.

Storage? 5mb x 25 = 125mb

So If I sell out and have 1000 users all using the service I have a cost of 4,000gb/month bandwidth and 125gb storage.

Lets go with 3 dedicated dual opteron servers from hostforweb (http://hostforweb.com/dedicated_servers.html) that give me 6,000gb/month of bandwidth and 360gb storage.
Total cost: $900/month

Total Profit at Traffic Geyser’s price: $247×1000 + $47×1000/month = $247,000 + $47,000/MONTH

Profit in the first month? $246,100

Not bad for something that can be replicated in 40 or less hours by a good programmer.

Anyone interested in the same service for $27/month, NO startup costs, and no limits? (more then traffic geyser is charging $297 + 97/month for!) … seriously… JetVideo anyone?

Here at Jetpacked we are REALLY going to be shaking up the Internet Marketing world with better tools at a fraction of the price.

    hey,

    I would be interested in talking to you about this further – please contact me.

    Thanks,

    I would also be interested. The company that I use allows me to send unlimited video emails, talk “face to face” with their video instant messeger, and do live video broadcasting.

    Making the videos is easy. Let me know if you come up with a way to upload them for a fair price.

    Thanks,

    I’ve received a good bit of positive feedback on the idea.

    I’m planning to make it an add-on or upgraded service as part of JetSubmitter and Jetspinner.

    It should be wonderful. Since it will integrate with them it will allow the descriptions and titles for video submissions to be spun even.

    Keep an eye out for early 07, maybe sooner if all goes well.

    Id like to discuss your plan to build a competitive Traffic Geyser product. I can give you some market demand help on this. Thanks.

    Keep me posted. Thanks. TG is overpriced! Who can create that many quality videos a month to begin with?

  9. Todd on March 28th, 2007

    Thanks for the support everyone. We’ve got this product in beta testing now. I hope to be able to provide you guys with more details soon.

    A better price for a better service sounds good.

    Back in my college days I seldom read writing this good. You display a lot of knowledge without being intimidating. Your attention to detail is superb. You make clear-cut points on which I can concur.

    The last time I read information written in such a unique fashion must have been early this year. That content was not nearly as original as yours. I am impressed.
