Affiliano - Earning opportunity or scam? 3
71The truth...
To understand affiliano we need to know two things.
1. Affiliano is associated with the HostMonster. That how they are earning money.
2. Affiliano and HostMonster are selling only two products. Domains and web hosting.
So this is their marketing system. To advertise and to sell to their
own affiliates. This mean that if you buy from your referral, you will
spend 50-60 or more dollars and he(she) will get 2 dollars from that
transaction. When you will have a new domain and web hosting bought
from affiliano you will earn $2 on every 60-70 dollars sale.
If this work for you then Affiliano is NOT a scam and is sound business system.
But what is going to happen after the 5 generations of sale with affiliano?
If you hope to sell to 50 people that mean that when you earn 100 dolars you will have a 50 more people as the competition.
If this 50 people (and every person hope is to make money just like
you) sell to another 50 people that mean in the second generation you
will have 2.500 competitors. In the third generation you will have
125.000 competitors with the exactly 125.000 web sites just like yours! In the fourth generation you will have as the competitors 6.250.000 competitors with the same web page as yours. in the 5 generation there will be 312.500.000 web sites just like yours. So is this still sound clever?
I know that on the affiliano web site everything sound easy and have a
sense. But ask yourself do you like to spend 60-70 dollars and to make
$100. Do you like to make internet a place with a millions of web pages
like affiliano? Do we need to have a hope for the fast earnings instead
of decent work?
Remember!
Affiliano do not produce anything, do not do any research, do not
transport goods. Affiliano is a company which is not conected with
anything real in this world!
So have a good luck!

Hi there!
I did like reading your opinions about the Affiliano Network.
I am very interested reading various posts and articles about Affiliano as I have just joined their Network.
It took me little time to finally decide to join them as I am always sceptical
I have to say that the experience has been very positive so far. It was very easy to set up my website and I was able to change my website with their free,easy to use web builder. This makes sure that all websites are different as you can change your website to your own liking.
I have earned a few leads so far and this has been relatively easy. You receive a payment for every referral, the referral you send does not need to buy hosting as you stated. You get paid a commission as soon as your referral enters their name and email address.
It is a lot of fun seeing the money go up in your account as I have never experienced this before with other programs.
I am currently in the process of promoting my website, and Affiliano's support staff have been very helpfull with this as I do not know a lot about this.
Anyway, good luck to every body, cheers Katie
Dear Mr. Vermeer,
I am not here on some quest for fighting dishonest people or to destroy any business opportunity but after visiting your web site and your offers, I find out that your business opportunity is nothing but Pyramid scheme.
Your business model is exactly described here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multilevel_pyramid_sc
But there is an old say: Every minute a new sucker is born...
So Katie I wish you a good business. I hope you will return your money and make some on top of that.
It's not a pyramid scheme but affiliate program. Affiliate programs are different and work on performance. Pyramid schemes have no products, affiliano just referrs to hostmonster for hosting and domain. I have earned many leads already with this, so rest assured it is not a scam.

Ok comments so far have been encouraging, but there is something I want to ask to Mr Vermeer, and it is if you could provide testimonies from members who have already received some payment as Mathwe A. Affiliano actually pays its members? Has Mathwe received his april commissions already? Is there any proof payment? In one of your replies in your site you make a statement conditioning the payment if your advertisers pay you, and if they do not pay? This is not a sound business practice because your affilates members are spending money and time to promote your business. Best regards!
I think of Gjuro is wrong and not know what is really a pyramid scheme. Affiliano not meet the parameters of a pyramid. First, because the income of members does not depend on what your referrals make, there is no economic connection between them, Second there is a product, the sale of a domain and hosting. So as said abdul "rest assured it is not a scam."
Hi everyone. I would like to thanks for stopping by and live a comments. But I can see that some here are either an affiliano affiliates, or affiliano employees with a strong wish to promote their program whatever it is.
I will paste a part of my text here and then you guys can comment on that again if you like:
"But what is going to happen after the 5 generations of sale with affiliano?

So is this still sound clever?"
So do you still thing that affiliano is a business system?
I will answer - YES but only if you are affiliano owner or if you are affiliate at the very top of the system. Everybody else which will join affiliano in the third, fourth, fifth or sixth (sic?!) generation will have a problems to return invested money.
Have a nice day and get a real job!
I will delete all comments which are used to link to promotional web sites.
If you like to live a comment you are more than welcome to do that.
Do not worry Gjuro I"ll open up a hub to express my personal experience in affiliano referral program. You can do anything you want on your hub, but you can not silence the democratic expression
Affilian,
Did you read my comment?
You can express your personal experience about affiliano referral program but you can not post a links to promote. Your democratic expression have nothing to do with your wish to earn money with pyramid scheme.
I do not agree with Spiro but his comment is still here.
Ok Mr gjuro. the big mistake you have made was to delete my entire comment. It would have been delete the link and leave everything else. It's true you left the comment of spiro, but your action in my case is called selective communism. Best regards!
Hi Affilian,
It is not a big mistake because now you have account on the Hub Pages, so you can advertise and promote your business as much as you like.
About the communism?! Well I will just say that you use words you do not understand and have nothing with this article. Spiro expressed his opinion and I left the comment even I do not agree with him.
That is called democracy.
Hah! Well, finally, someone who is NOT promoting Affiliano. I found some posts about them on mylot.com which are more honest so I dont think this is a good program.
Most of the articles about them that pop up on search engines are not honest written articles. They're only positive reviews to promote the use of Affiliano.
Go on google and see for yourself. Then check the links and the text/content of the people who write and you will notice similarities.
i want to know that how an affiliate get approved just by entering his name and email address to affiliano website i am in a doubt???????????
Mr Gjuro, on septembrer 8, 2009 I received my commissions from Affiliano via PayPal. In my case it is an earning opportunity so far. What do you think?
Reunaldo S,
I am happy for you.
But...
Nobody have anything to say about my math about generations (forth and fifth) of "affiliates" - Customers?
I'm with gjuro... This program could work for a few, but then fade away for most. What I really want to know is... How can Affiliano pay $1.50 to $4.00 if the referral doesn't sign up for the hosting. Are they selling the (name/email) lead to other companies, or do they pay the commissions first and if the referral doesn't sign up for the hosting within 15 days,they will take the commission away. Or maybe something else... Anyone know?
The worst of Affiliano is that they deduct from the commissions allegedly disenrolled referrals or the duplicates. I was discounted almost 50% of my referrals of July making these allegations without providing evidence. It is true that they pay but they have tricks to pay less. Imagine one running google ads with your money and later they cancel your work. Definitely what you get with Affiliano are lost rather than profits. Now they have committed the mistake to reduce payment for referrals to 50 cents. Nobody can profit at that price with a campaign on google. I am very upset with Affiliano.
Jason Vermeer and the entire Affiliano team just seems dropped off the face of the earth. I have a commission payment due to me over 60 days ago and tried to contact them via the support tickets and NO RESPONSE WHAT-SO-EVER.
The Affiliano Blog has no new posts since September.
They deleted their FAN PAGE on facebook
so they just RUN AWAY WITH OUR MONEY
Nice one

Hi Gjuro
I found your blog about our network. Just so you know, you don't get paid after someone purchases hosting with Hostmonster, you get paid a commission for every person who simply registers their name and email address through your Affiliano Website which we will provide.
There seem to be a number of people who think that they only get paid a $2.00 commission if someone buys hosting, this is not true. They only need to register their name and email address to become a lead referral.
It really is quite simple and works well for many affiliates around the world. I can personally assist you in being able to start earning with our program quickly.
Regards,
Jason Vermeer
