		<description>I swear I left a comment here before...was it deleted?

Anyway, what&#039;s scammy about having a nice design? Yeah, I&#039;ve upgraded the site design (see domain root), but let&#039;s face it...good design counts for something, and if the product is good, there&#039;s nothing scammy about it.</description>

		<description>It&#039;s cool that you listed my product (Twitter Rockstar), but I&#039;m curious what is wrong with good design?

A good design doesn&#039;t mean the product is a scam.

Hey, free backlink...I can&#039;t complain :)</description>

		<description>Squeeze pages aren&#039;t scams.  They convert traffic.  The products they sell may be scams, but the item they sell can be independent of the approach they use to sell it.

Just saying, many designers should appreciate that squeeze pages convert customers.  Conversion is what matters in web sales.</description>

		<description>I have always looked at these types of sites and thought &quot;SCAM&quot; but I guess there are still people out in the world who believe this type of stuff and looking to make a quick buck.</description>

		<description>Most of these modern gurus make it all so easy, huh! Check this out. A coconut farmer in the tropics can do better. He plants coconuts on his hills, and forget it. Later, fruits fall off the trees in 60 months (same harvest time in the web, since we spend half of our days reading the scams you put here, while churning out something of value but don&#039;t know where to park it after getting confused) . All our farmer does to harvest, is watch the fruits fall and roll down the hills, then calls his 50 year old grandma to assist him gather the fruits, &quot;without training and could hardly recognize a stone from the coconut!&quot; Thank you! I enjoy it here SCAM web design. You are very informative.</description>

		<description>Please do a companion article on &quot;Sales Pages!&quot; I have a friend who thinks its a legitimate, real, &quot;honest&quot; form of marketing his eBook/s. He&#039;s convinced that&#039;s the road to &quot;residual income.&quot; PLEASE expose this practice as a scam. Don&#039;t forget all the techniques they use... &quot;virtual sales agent,&quot; squeeze pages, ugh. Sheisters!</description>

		<description>Too funny. Calling them scams with affiliate links just in case, I suppose. 

I guess I would have liked to see why you called them scams, I mean some were obvious, others not so much.

Personally, I learned alot about twitter from some of your &quot;scam&quot; sites, but hey you never know where you&#039;ll learn something new.</description>
