Is Google Slapper Worth the Investment?

Everyone's always coming out with the hottest internet marketing product that has ever hit the market.  Thanks to great copywriting and a lot of hype, the next product is always hailed as the best product.  It's good to keep this in mind before you whip out your wallet and spend some bucks on the next big thing.  Recently I reviewed a product called Google Slapper created by Jay Deiboldt which is set to release on March 3, 2009.  The best thing about this product is that it makes very few promises and does not make the claim that you can get rich quick.  Google Slapper is a 3 part course comprised of pdf's and videos designed to take the complete newcomer internet marketer from zero to successfully promoting affiliate products.  It is easy to understand and even easier to actually use.  You can follow along with the videos step by step and build an affiliate campaign without any money, without advertising, and without a list of subscribers.But why is it called Google Slapper?  The infamous "Google Slap" is when Google penalizes advertisers by raising the cost-per-click for placing ads that take the person who clicks on suspect ad to a screen which offers very little content and usually just takes the person's contact details down.  By raising the cost-per-click of the ad the advertiser's daily ad budget is zapped with a quickness and their ad disappears.But Google Slapper's motto is "Slap Google Back".  This product shows you how to make some free websites and then get them on the first page of Google search rankings using various methods which don't involve placing ads.  Experts have estimated that 85% of internet traffic is search engine driven, so you can immediately realize the significance here.Is Google Slapper worth it?  I've studied the course and used the techniques.  They do work if you are willing to put forth some effort.  I've gotten on the first page of Google with the course training.  Overall I would say yes it's worth it. If you're considering Google Slapper, go for it, but remember that there is a recurring monthly charge which, while affordable, may not be for you.  You can always cancel the membership though after you're done going through all the content, but new content is supposed to be added continuously with fresh updates.  Is Google Slapper the next big thing?  Time will tell.  For now it's big enough to get a newbie off the sidelines and into the game.An excellent free guide to supplement the course is the Google Slapper Addendum which demonstrates the effectiveness of the program while serving to help others avoid a time-consuming mistake.
