Help a guy win a bet.

Is the counter registering all hits or just unique? I know you can have counters that will only display unique hits.

It probably is a load of crap and just a clever way for this guy to try and make some money from referral links or donations.

Viral marketing is a wonderful thing.

Before yesterday how many of you had even heard of that dating site? How many new sign ups do you think it has got as a result of this supposed 'bet'?

Wrong. Because the contract states TWO million. How can he prove to her that it's two million and not ONE? Easily that is. Of course once it ticks over he will know it is at 1 million and being counting again, but it's still not that easy. Especially when she is female.

Not Visits: 00!
 
It appears he's gonna have a good weekend :p

Even if it is a money-making scam, good luck to him, not like it's cost anyone anything*.

*unless people actually donated money which he's scampered off with, that ain't cool..

I wondered that myself, as I said earlier. Seems a bit odd!
 
Taken from The Register

"I was referred to this site yesterday by a friend of mine (the usual word of mouth thing). Howver, I was slightly concerned by the unprofessional look and format of the page; I was therefore overly cautious about clicking on things on it.

Which turned out to be a good thing!

If you look at the link properties for his links to metrodate.com and gamefly.com (well, the gamefly link is gone, but it did the same thing yesterday), the actual href link takes you through a redirection website! I looked up the owner of the sites that the links redirect through and came across a company named: ValueClick.com, an online advertising firm.

Now, this was before the statements listed for April 5 were posted. He has since stated that he is getting a financial bonus for signing people up for metrodate.com. However, with a click-through redirection system, he's actually making money from people simply clicking on the link to metrodate (not from having them sign up!).

Personally, I feel that this is horribly unscrupulous and dishonest!

Please warn your readers not to click his links!

Thank you for your time, Dave

PS. Also of note, "Jim" seems to be a screen name for this endeavor; the site is actually registered to a gentleman by the name of Brent Williams. But that's understandable."
 
Jack: That place is just so someone can make money from MY CLICKS! How dare he! I am too smart to fall for that

Jill: Ohh, he's gonna get some! Go dude!!

Why do I get the feeling this is just some cheap idea for someone to try and make money, hoping sponsors would catch on or whatever.
