My nephews use that ignorant statement that, “If you have nothing to hide you don’t need to worry about security.” Of course the counter to that is that, “If you have nothing to say, your don’t need to worry about free speech .” How did your web browser fare?
My main one isn’t the worst on the block, but not the best either.
My very secure one is excellent.

P.S. Having a very tiny and secure footprint online is great for personal privacy, but it totally useless for marketing.
For that you want people to be able to find you, but on your terms.
That’s what I think many tiny products is better than one big one.
That way your targeting a small sub-niche that the bulk of people don’t care about or even pay attention to.
The ones who do care about it are the ones who will snap up any information they can find, yours included.
Put your offers on one of these sites, https://burt.gumroad.com/l/zero-risk, and you can hide even better because they have really good bot protection.
That keeps the data slurpers off your site and away from your data.
Either the product is crap and the marketer is the one who is disappearing forever (under this name and account), or it will be introduced again in a month or so with a different name.
Either the product is crap and the marketer is the one who is disappearing forever (under this name and account), or it will be introduced again in a month or so with a different name.
No sensible, honest marketer will take a product off the shelf if it genuinely helps people and sells. That sort of attempted FOMO never appeals to me, what about you?
Does that work on you to get you to rush to get your credit card out?
Sure, some products do expire and get withdrawn from the market.
Rarely when they’ve only been offered for a week.
Usually they no longer work because something they’ve relied on has been withdrawn.
Think of Flash, if you remember that, Adobe Air, Yahoo Pipes, etc. There are many more but every time one of these has been shut down, hundreds, if not thousands of other apps were also shut down.
Sometimes the developers were able to migrate to another platform, sometimes not.
There is a risk in building on someone else’s platform, but it usually doesn’t mean that you can only offer your product for a week before you take it off the market.
And if you do have to take it off the market for one of those legitimate reasons, you shouldn’t be selling it at all.
So no, the “Buy this before it disappears forever…” is 100% BS.
Nothing works 100%, but this little trick does a great job of reducing it.
Every place you put your email address, add something in the address like this me(no spam)@mysite.com.
Most humans will recognise that they need to remove that bit in brackets to get a proper email address, but computers and computer programs are stupid.
They need to be told to filter the email addresses.
Yes, they can be programmed to do that, but the spammer has to know to do that.
Most of them don’t care about one email address in thousands that bomb, it’s considered normal.
Now, you can mix that up however you like because humans are good at pattern matching, and the ones that aren’t are not a good fit for your business anyway.

P.S. That little method makes using cheap, paid traffic to an offer on one of these sites https://burt.gumroad.com/l/zero-risk a safe way to test offers.
If you can make it pay here, you can make it pay better with better traffic.
Ask one AI tool to write a prompt to get the result you want from another tool.
For example:- Please write a prompt for Claude to write a series of 7 emails about this product, <product link>, to encourage people to buy it. Please ask any questions you need before writing the prompt so you understand how best to write the prompt.
You could target any AI for this and they will ask questions, then create a seriously good prompt.
Copy paste that prompt into your AI of choice and you will get a good result.
You will probably be surprised at how extensive the prompt generated will be, and how concise, but that’s what it takes to get great results.
For a really meta experience you can add to the end of that first prompt:- Don’t write the prompt out, just create it and use it.
Always treat the AI tools like a junior. They need full instructions to return a good result.
So, they used multiple phone numbers to set up a bunch of accounts, and, proving that they were well aware of their fraud, they set up multiple profiles as a well.
Why would they do that I hear you ask.
It’s all about broadening their reach.
Attempting to scoop up more customers.
While this will work, until Fiverr discovers the deception, you put your entire network and accounts at risk.
People will always get caught out when not playing by the rules, so it’s really not worth the effort.
A far smarter way to improve your Fiverr gig perforance is to send traffic to your gig from other places.
If you send people to your gig with an affiliate link you’ll still make a commission if the visitor buys a different gig or joins Fiverr as a creator.
Regards, Brent.
P.S. Here’s potentially profitable Fiverr gig for you.
Offer to make a complete sales funnel around a product with a high chance of success, based on their niche.
And there is always something that appears faster.
Spoiler alert: – – It isn’t.
Unless you buy quality traffic, and you’ve optimised your offer, it can take months to begin to see cash flow.
You could speed that up, but you’d have to hustle hard to do that.
I’m not saying that you can’t do that, I don’t know how hard you’re prepared to work, but I am saying that most people won’t do that and stick with it until it works.
Tell me I’m wrong.
Regards, Brent.
P.S. One thing you can do to speed things up is to use AI tools to help you create all the content and products you’ll need.
Unfortunately, that can be expensive.
Subscriptions for all the top AI tools can run you to hundreds every month.
One way to reduce that to a manageable level is to use one of the multi-tool platforms such as this.
The only thing that works is actual activity, not busy-work such as researching the best autoresponder, or platform to use, or even the best AI tool to use.
All of that it time wasting and avoiding doing what actually matters.
Putting an offer up, and driving traffic to it.
Everything works if you do, nothing works if you don’t.

Brent.
P.S. This short email brought to you courtesy of another bicycle crash.
I’m typing with one finger because my right hand is strapped, and my left arm is in a sling.
But unless you’re a medical person, and can prove it, Google will block your site.
However, there is a way to market to people who need the help, without being unethical or sneaky.
The way to do that is to curate content from real medical sites, with links and quotes, and talk about what you think.
Your not claiming to be a professional, you’re talking about what the readers are thinking.
It’s about discussing the concerns and finding answers on legitimate websites.
You might have ads for supplements, or Amazon, or Google adsense, etc. on that site, and that would be OK.
If you make the site a public discussion forum then you’ll also get that coveted UGC (user generated content) which adds interactivity and repeat visitors.
Most marketers have left this market to the doctors and nurses, but that leaves the opportunity wide open because they’re not marketers and are not good at converting traffic to sales.
