Review of Alok Jain’s Project Quick Cash

Alok Jain is a relative newcomer to the world of Internet Marketing, but so far the products I’ve seen him produce have been of good quality. His latest creation, Project Quick Cash, is no exception.

The concept behind Project Quick Cash is that Internet Marketing doesn’t have to be has difficult as many make it out to be. He offers five methods of promoting products (and not just IM products) that he says will get you a lot of traffic fast.

I decided to test the first of the five methods. This method is called Cashing the Spike, and involves creating a free blog and making entries based on keywords known to be hot right now.

To test this method I created a free blog at Blogger.com, hotnewsitems.blogspot.com and practiced the method taught by Alok in the report.

My results were nothing short of astounding. Toward the end of this post I’ll give you the link to my neutral third-party tracking statistics so you can see them for yourself, but first let me give you some of the high points.

The first five days of working the method weren’t terribly impressive, yielding a modest average of 57 unique visitors per day. Not bad considering I started from scratch, but nothing to write home about. However, here are the numbers I got starting on day six, when Google started to send traffic to the blog:

  • 11 Nov, Sun = 131 unique visitors
  • 12 Nov, Mon = 196 unique visitors
  • 13 Nov, Tue = 226 unique visitors
  • 14 Nov, Wed = 161 unique visitors
  • 15 Nov, Thu = 247 unique visitors
  • 16 Nov, Fri = 149 unique visitors
  • 17 Nov, Sat = 151 unique visitors
  • 18 Nov, Sun = 105 unique visitors

What surprised me the most was not so much the amount of traffic that using the method generated, but rather Google’s response to the site by using the method. Look at the referrer stats:

Websites = 922 visitors = 54.01%
Search Engines = 782 visitors = 45.81%
Email = 3 visitors = 0.18%

Yes, almost half of my traffic came from the search engines in less than three weeks of the blog’s existence. Of the search engine traffic, how much came from Google? Let the stats speak:

Google = 684 visitors = 87.47%
Yahoo = 62 visitors = 7.93%
AOL Search = 29 visitors = 3.71%
Google Images = 5 = 0.64%
Dogpile = 2 = 0.26%

Close to 90% from Google, all in less than 20 days starting from scratch.

I’d never seen a site rank so fast for even low-competition keywords, not in Google. Here are some screen shots for the most impressive search engine rankings I achieved using his methods, all within the first two weeks.

I quit working the method after the first two weeks because I got busy with other projects — and yet the blog continues to generate traffic.

  • keywords: zune 2 update
    rank: #1

  • keywords: zune 2 upgrade
    rank: #2

  • keywords: stargate atlantis
    rank: #3

  • keywords: luminess air
    rank: #6

  • keywords: is etrade filing bankruptcy
    rank: #1

I also took advantage of some misspellings to rank for, and they’ve paid off handsomely!

  • keywords: reba mcintyre’s new cd
    rank: #7

  • keywords: the osmands
    rank: #3

  • keywords: osmands on oprah
    rank: #2

These are just a few of the many keywords that this blog ranked for in its first two weeks. Also, did you notice that most of these keywords are unrelated? Yet the blog ranked for all of these diverse keywords. I think it’s safe to say that Project Quick Cash delivers on its promises, at least the Cashing the Spike method sure did for me.

Okay, I promised you the link to my third-party stats tracker so you could see the results for yourself. Here it is:

Pay particular attention to the unique visitors from weeks 45 through 48.

So how much is Project Quick Cash going to cost you? The price tag is $77. Considering how little work I had to put into the Cashing the Spike method to generate 2,000 unique visitors in less than three weeks, I’d call that a bargain. And that’s just one of the five methods Alok teaches.
