placemyproduct.com is going out of business

  • Author: Alexander Batista
  • Filed under: Site's I recommend
  • Date: Mar 6,2008

well just my luck one of my fav sites when out of business right after I found the freakin Site. The site is called placemyproduct.com.

They emailed me with a full refund of the money and a explanation that they were selling the website. I hope they sell.

I had paid to get my 125 x 125 ad on there blog. I felt it would of done pretty good seeing that they advertised on johnchow.com blog.

but all that publicity must have not helped because the site with only a couple of months in business failed.

Basically the site was like ebay but for you advertisement. how it works is you sell the ads from your blog and people bid on then. the highest bidder wins the advertisement. The only problem with that was that people don’t like to sell there advertisement for less money and that was what was happening. I was getting really good deals that I normally not get. The add sellers feel like there selling there blog short and never try it again.

For the buyer it’s a great Idea. It gives the buyer a chance to maybe get a great deal on an ad they normally can’t afford.

    It seems like you’re missing a lot on what’s actually in the blogosphere. There is a site similar to placemyproduct, but it seems to be doing a bit better. It’s call Focial.

    Your marketing techniques are done COMPLETELY wrong. No offense, but you should really take some time understanding how to get your blog out if you’re interested in spending $10,000. I’ve mentioned that you should purchase ad spots on my blog and I also offered a permanent ad spot for you, but you didn’t take it. My ad spots are now $25-50/spot and I’m not offering permanent spots anymore since my spots sell out each month. Sorry about bragging, but I’m just trying to make a point.

    Placemyproduct asked me for a free review, but I didn’t do it even though the owner sent me a message telling me there will be a review on JohnChow. Mr. Chow isn’t everything. You’re missing out on the rest of the blogosphere if you only depend on him.

    Take my advice. Read some blogs and get some tips.

    One more thing, you might have remember the review I did for you back when I first started, but if you kept on visiting my blog, you would realize that the offer I gave you on a permanent ad spot was a keeper..

    p.s. I think I said $300-400 for a permanent 125×125 ad

    BTW, you still have A LOT of unfinished things with your blog with errors here and there. You might have gotten a new theme, but you’re not putting in your time and commitment. Some of your old posts mess up the frames and everything. When I purchased my domain, I spent ONE WHOLE MONTH getting everything on my blog ready. I used a free theme that was made perfect, but I made sure NOTHING was wrong. Remember, I’m just trying to help.

    That’s the thing this blog is alot of fun I love to blog. You almost quit then said no. Why? I never ever thought about quiting even after I got into a big accident I don’t care to make. All I care about is enjoying the fact that I like to express myself. I’m in the make money online niche most of my post don’t have to do eith making money but I’m in this niche because I like the people who are in it like you.
