10/07/08. LR Transformations and More News

It was an awful day for me. As you may have noticed my site was offline for many hours and many of you couldn't load the page. It just appeared that my hosting provider was experiencing some difficulties with their servers which caused this prolonged downtime not only for my site, but for all sites hosted by them. This is what I received from them regarding this downtime: "esc09 - server box is currently experiencing troubles with the file system. Our engineers are currently working on this. We appreciate your patience and understanding in this matter."I really hope that my site will be back online soon and meanwhile you can read all the news and updates here.

Today I'd like to talk to you about the recent LibertyReserve transformations the system has overgone during the last 24 hours (as you know it was offline for scheduled maintenance). Only the blind couldn't see that LR website has changed and it's especially obvious when you try to login to your account. In my opinion, the system has become more secure as instead of two steps, the system now requires you to fulfill four (!) steps to login. So what are they?
1) On the first page you should enter your account number, password and turing number. You may remember that in the previous version the password was required to be entered during the Step 2.
2) On the second page you will see your personal welcome message which you have entered when signing up to your LR account. You should proceed to Step 3 only if your personal message is correct. Such way you will be sure that you're really on LR site and not on some copycat version.
3) On Step 3 you have two options: to pay from your wallet or to access your main account. Actually, the first option is now disabled and I guess they are still working on it. I think it will be something similar to WebMoney wallet which requires you to download and install some software to be able to access your account. Also during performing this step you can already see your account balance.
4) But to access your main account you should enter your login PIN which the previous system required you to enter during Step 1.

So as you can see from my overview of the new login process your LR account really became more secured and safe from hacking attempts. Moreover, it's obvious that some new exciting features are coming soon. Among them are paying from your wallet feature or gold backing option which will be available soon: "As we have promised, we have reached and signed an agreement for allocated gold storage. Once this option is enabled you will see a third balance (in grams) listed on your account. We are preparing updated instructions for exchangers for purchases of gold inventory."

So I really take back all my bad words about LibertyReserve and am looking forward for their new features which will strengthen its leadership in the world of e-currencies even more. If you still can't access your LR account please be patient as their DNS is not fully propagated yet and I'm sure you will be able to access it again soon.

Praising the fact that LibertyReserve is back online I have received almost all my pending payments today. So I was paid from ProfitsAddict, ApolloInvestGroup, SourceLinkAds, AgriFund, AcmosTrade, EliteMoney, MaxShare, BristolCapitalGroup, LargeSum and LibertyInsider. I wasn't paid only from SafeAtom but it's probably because the admin still can't access his account. Well, we'll wait and see if SafeAtom will pay tomorrow as it was always fast with paying the pendings.

I joined two great programs today which in my opinion can become great earners for us online investors.

The first program is an HYIP called e-Confidence. It just started a couple of days ago and is another program with direct payouts. So you shouldn't worry about making withdrawal requests. You will be paid directly to the account you've made a deposit from. Unfortunately, e-Confidence accepts only LibertyReserve (USD and EUR) and the minimum to invest is $10 (or 10 Euros). The plans are short or medium term and well-balanced in my opinion: 11% for 10 business days (110%), 8% for 15 business days (120%), 140% after 1 month and 200% after 2 months. In monthly and bi-monthly plans you have the opportunity to cancel your contract and be paid your invested amount back minus a 10% fee. Allegedly e-Confidence is a registered entity in British Virgin Islands and has the Level 2 protection by BlackLotus. The full review and my analysis of e-Confidence can be read on my blog tomorrow.

The second program I joined today is VideoAdSurf. At first glance it's just another regular autosurf with the plan 10% for 13 days paid upon expiry, accepting LibertyReserve only, with neversay script and BlackLotus hosting. But VideoAdSurf is different and unique by offering a completely different advertising campaign for your site - video advertising. In my opinion, such a new approach to advertising can attract more new customers and more outside income for the site. The admin of VideoAdSurf seems to me an honest and hard-working guy and I'll try to ask him some questions for an interview soon. And of course read the detailed review of VideoAdSurf on my blog very soon.

Thank you for staying with my blog during this downtime and it's really appreciated. See you tomorrow!

29/06/08. AgriFund Review

Despite the fact that my main site is still down I'm still alive and kicking. I think a solution is near and soon I will be able to access the site and it means it will be available in a couple of days. Meanwhile, I would like to present you the long-awaited review of AgriFund.

AgriFund is another program which seems to be very stable as it makes direct payouts straight to whatever e-currency account you made your deposit from (LibertyReserve, AlterGold or Pecunix). The minimum deposit is only $10 for any plan and you will get your principal back at the end of the investment term. All the payouts are made only on business days (Mon-Fri).

And now for the best part: you can choose not only from 7 different plans but it's also you who decide how many days you want your deposit to make you profit after what you will get your principal back. I can explain it better using these examples.

1) The first is the shortest and the least profitable plan of all. In my opinion it's perfect if you want just to try AgriFund program first. It's even called "Test Investment Plan". According to this plan you will get 1.1% for 3-5 business days and you can choose your investment term when depositing. So basically you will get from 3.3% to 5.5% profit and your 100% principal back within 3-5 business days.

2) The next is the "Extra Short Investment Plan" which provides you with 1.5% daily profit for an investment term that varies from 6 to 10 business days. Like in the first plan it's you who decide the longevity of your investment term. Total profit according to this plan will be from 9% to 15% plus principal back.

3) "Short Investment Plan" pays you 1.9% for the period from 11 to 20 business days. The exact amount of days you define yourself when making a deposit. Total profit from this plan will be from 20.9% to 38% depending on the amount of days you choose. Of course, here you will get your principal back as well.

4) "Medium 1 Investment Plan" gives you an opportunity to earn 148.3%-192% for the period from 21 to 40 business days including your principal. The daily profit will be 2.3% daily.

5) "Medium 2 Investment Plan" gives you an opportunity to earn 210.7%-262% for the period from 41 to 60 business days. The daily profit increases to 2.7% every trading day. I myself chose this plan and decided to invest for 45 business days. I already received two of my payments and they were both made directly to my LR account.

6) "Long Investment Plan" is for those who want to risk their money for 61-120 business days. You will earn 3.1% daily and therefore will be in profit just after 33 business days. In my opinion it's a good investment decision as well. By the way, you also can choose any term here from 61 to 120 business days and your profit will be 289.1%-472%.

7) Finally, the longest and the most profitable plan is "Extra Long Investment Plan". The term is from 121 to 250 business days but the profit is very decent and is 3.5% daily. Therefore you will be in profit just after 29 business days. If you don't need your principal back for a long time I can definitely recommend this plan in AgriFund. Your profit can be up to 935% then.

Of course, it's hard to imagine that AgriFund will be online for a year. But in my opinion it will definitely be with us for several months. Judge for yourself: good design, direct payouts, hosting by BlackLotus (Level 2), certificate of incorporation allegedly given to the licensed offshore investment company AGRI Fund by the Republic of Mauritius.

If you don't have an idea where Mauritius is situated you can read about it in the FAQ section of AgriFund site: "AGRI Fund is a licensed offshore investment company incorporated in Republic of Mauritius - a well-known offshore center. Mauritius is an English speaking country in the Indian Ocean. It is a former British Colony which became independent in 1968 and joined the Commonwealth. It is basically a parliamentary democracy on the British style."

Although it's stated on the website that the company started its activity in March 2006 the AgriFund domain was registered in June 2008. Later it's clearly stated that there's a risk involved in investing so only invest in AgriFund what you can afford to lose.

All in all, AgriFund is another long-term program with direct payouts that came here to stay. I'll try to contact the admin and ask for an interview for my blog and we will see if he agrees. So far AgriFund program seems promising to me and you can test the program starting just from $10 and invest only for 3 days. I hope you will agree that it's great to deposit and then forget about your investment and just receive the payouts every business day straight to your e-currency account.

I hope that my next post will be on my permanent site http://money-news-online.com/blog See you very soon and thanks for your continued support. I was really touched by receiving several emails from my readers with words of encouragement and support. Thank you all, my friends!

27/06/08. SourceLinkAds Review and Other News

For some time now I have been searching for a good new autosurf program with potential to grow. Finally I found it, thanks to one of my readers, who brought my attention to it. The program, which was just launched 3 days ago is called SourceLinkAds and as promised last night I'm giving you a review of it here.

SourceLinkAds is based on a well-known autosurf platform so there will be no problems for you when navigating inside your member's area. The plans are balanced and well-sustainable in my opinion. You can choose between two plans:

1) Source Link Alfa plan. 13% for 9 days so you will get 117% return in just 9 days. The best thing about this plan is that you're allowed to request your withdrawal daily and you will be paid on the next business day (Mon-Fri). I can confirm it as I received my withdrawal already exactly on the next business day i.e. today. For this plan you can have three simultaneously running upgrades and the total amount should not exceed $1,000.

2) Source Link Beta plan. This plan is riskier but more profitable as you will get 144% after 18 days of surfing. The payout will be made to your e-currency account automatically after your upgrade expires. In this plan you're allowed to have 6 upgrades running at the same time with a total maximum of $4,000.

Of course, you should surf 10 sites daily in order to receive your daily rebate. I tried the surfing out and everything was smooth. As in other autosurfs your account will be credited with 13% (plan Alfa) which you can then request to your e-currency account you upgraded from, be it LibertyReserve, AlterGold, e-gold or SolidTrustPay. Just bear in mind that the minimum amount to withdraw to STP is $2.50. For other e-currencies you can request the cashout once your available balance reaches $0.10. The minimum upgrade for any plan is only $4 so it's affordable for every investor.

As you can see the plans in SourceLinkAds are very well thought-out and surely an effort has been made by the admin to make them sustainable and long-running. By the way, the admin of SourceLinkAds Robert Hobson is a very helpful person, he's very active on forums and you can really rely on his fast response to all your issues and concerns. He also issues updates on a daily basis and I noticed that the programs which admins communicate with their membership on a consistant basis as a rule last longer. I'm sure the admin of SourceLinkAds will agree to answer some questions for my upcoming interview with him which I'm going to publish sometime next week.

Among the other distinctive features on SourceLinkAds website I would like to mention a great yet simple and tidy design with easy-to-navigate buttons and a light theme. The DDoS-protection is provided by BlackLotus and judging by my latest post published yesterday you might have noticed that I'm not their biggest fan. But the admin Robert seems to be very confident regarding this type of protection as he purchased Level 3 which costs hundreds of dollars per month. As you can see his budget allows him to buy some strong protection and I just hope BLCC will not let him down this time. I myself sometimes have difficulties with accessing all the sites hosted on BLCC and sometimes I had to renew my IP-address in order to get in. I don't know if it's some additional protection layer or whatever but these difficulties with accessing sometimes are very inconvenient for me.

The conclusion: SourceLinkAds is a classic autosurf that provides you with both daily and on expiry plans, accepts a variety of major e-currencies and has a strong DDoS-protection. Robert Hobson also seems to be quite a professional admin in my opinion. I would also like to add what he told about the plans for the future he's preparing for the members: "Soon SLA will start a referral contest with price awards. I am planning to make it available every month. That is just a thought at the moment to make the program more interactive with its members. I am also planning an upgrade ID contest and other extra features." I'm sure with such a far-sighted and inspiring admin like Robert SourceLinkAds can expect a bright future ahead. And I really encourage you to be a part of this future! Many members are already enjoying this program and this is only the beginning of the growth SourceLinkAds should expect for the next several weeks. Stay tuned for my upcoming interview with Robert soon!

Other news for today.

I would like to start with autosurfing news today. Surf-Redefined's admin John Keller recently warned the members that the payouts to STP and AP may be slightly delayed: "Some STP & Alertpay cashouts will be delayed for a while. This is due to the delay in our funding of our SolidTrustPay and AlertPay account. All other cashouts in other processors will be processed normally." As the admin explained to me he had some problems with exchangers and it took some time to make them. That's why some of the payouts can be processed later than usual. At least give the admin a couple of days to process all the pending payouts. As for me, I reupgraded again today, surfed and received my pending payout. If you want to read more about Surf-Redefined program please refer to my interview with the admin published here.

The admin of 12Daily.Pro Brian repeatedly explained on the forums the reason why Round 1 was over and when the refunds would be processed: "We had some serious problems with our business, that's why we had to stop our program and refund what was left on our e-currency accounts. Unfortunately this was only enough to pay back 5% of members' losses. We have restarted our program with a new strategy behind it and will refund additional 45% of your losses depending on how good we do". After all the rants with BLCC admin who couldn’t successfully fight the accusations of hacking attempts for the sites hosted on his servers the thread of 12Daily.Pro is still quiet for a while. I hope the stream of the new upgrades will start when the first payouts from the Round 2 are processed in a couple of days.

I was very surprised to receive a very angry email from the admin of 8DailyForever Eliza last night. She accused me of listing supposedly "scamming" programs like ProfitsAddict and 12Daily.Pro: "Why are you listing them on your site. We invested over $2000 between both sites and neither of them paid us a dime nor do they even respond to emails? I have reported them to AlterGold support and I will continue to report them everywhere." It was really strange to me as I couldn't imagine that 8DailyForever could invest their members' money into different programs. Especially it was strange to get such an email from the admin which I considered to be a professional one and not a leech. (I guess the reporting of 12Daily.Pro to AlterGold was the reason why the admin of 12DP Brian stopped accepting AlterGold.) Anyway, I hope 8DailyForever can continue as usual after these losses and just wondering if this is usual practice to invest the money in other programs. In my opinion, it's just irresponsible and childish behavior. Also she probably didn't notice that 12Daily.Pro is in Round 2 now and ProfitsAddict pays only for smaller deposits (selectively) which I warned my readers about more than once. So I guess I have nothing to worry about my reputation compared to 8DailyForever's site.

The most popular payment processor now LibertyReserve was really slow for me last night and still they can't stop to confusing me. For instance, that's what I can read on their blog: "After a thorough and careful research we have found the best solution for our members for gold storage. We are in final stages of signing necessary documentation and preparing the allocated storage. The allocated storage will be audited twice a year and audit information will be publicly available on-line in the upcoming new version of Liberty Reserve software. Physical location of gold will be in Europe, under the management of well known and reputable metal depository entity. Stay tuned for more exciting news from Liberty Reserve team." I don't know what the purpose is for all this as I think they'd be better worrying about by how well LibertyReserve works for their online customers. For example, I couldn't see the explanation regarding the recent redirection issue when there was a strange page instead of their index page for several hours. I hope it was not a hacking attempt but I would advise LR to take care more about their security and convenience for the members instead of building castles in the sky.

At the other extreme the main competitor of LR - AlterGold - is constantly improving their features and getting more and more new customers daily. For example, recently a new feature has been implemented - short URL and could read about it on AlterGold blog: "We have great news for you today. We have launched quick payment URL so each account at AlterGold has its own unique payment URL to directly receive funds and these URLs are very easy to remember. Here is 1 step formula to get your quick payment URL any time: https://YOUR-ACCOUNT-ID.altergold.com/ Thank you very much for using AlterGold as your primary payment processor and money exchange service provider. You will also find your quick payment URL in account overview page. And yes, you will very soon hear about more great developments." If you don't know anything about AlterGold payment processor I advise you to read my interview with them.

For those interested and waiting for their refund from MoneyTrip I received my refund to STP several days ago so you should expect to get some money soon as well if you're entitled. I also received payouts today from many programs including SafeAtom, LibertyInsider, Tradelite, Surf-Redefined, SourceLinkAds, AcmosTrade, EliteMoney, LargeSum and AgriFund. By the way, sorry for some delay regarding my review of AgriFund promised before. The program is really worth your attention and the review of it will be published on my blog tomorrow. Stay tuned!
