My TCM (Twitter Cash Machine) that I bought from Shaun Stenning already run about 2 months until today. In my earlier posts, it shown that the results I get from TCM is pretty good. Last income I get even reach $ 451. However, during the transfer process into my Paypal, the reality was not so. My income was not even reach 1% of the total income i should get. Here, I share a little about how the actual results after 2 months of running. I do not mean to discredit or have negative views of this program. I tried as objective as possible in expressing facts about this TCM program. I still very optimistic and hope this TCM can run and grow better in the future. I started this TCM program precisely on December 1, 2009 (exact date after Bootcamp Training Program was completed). I have a 7 twitter account running on Shaun’s twa.lk program. I also entered my personal twitter account in this software. After the program run about 1 / 2 months, my results was really really good. My income was approximately $ 451. Earnings per day could reach $ 50-80. However, honestly I feel there something not right with this performance, because from 7 accounts, only 2 accounts have significant income, while 5 other accounts do not earn more than $ 1. The other 2 accounts even did not produce single penny at all. One of my account that produce good income has follower of approximately 200 people. While 4 others have follower of nearly 100 people, while 1 account is a new accounts that have a number of new follower is not up to 20 people. After run about 2 weeks, there is software problems on twa.lk. The first problem that arises is the auto share in twa.lk stopped running. As the impact, automatic tweet update feature that has been usually working totally stop since that time. My income at that time was stopped at around $ 450. And 1 week after that, there software fixed until finally auto share feature worked again. But my income didn’t generate as well like before. For several days I only make about $ 1 (so far compared to my previous earnings). I began to complain to Shaun about this. There are a lot of support I get since then, starting from setting software recommendations, optimization tips, and account personally reviewed by Shaun Stenning himself. But so far there is no good progress from my TCM. Not long after that, precisely in the days before Christmas, I got an email from Shaun who mentioned that the practice occurred with the amount of click fraud that plagued many twa.lk account. We were asked to make confession in form whether the violation of click fraud or not. Shortly after the announcement, suddenly all my twitter account suspended by twitter. Because of this, all my accounts can not be used again. Income from total twa.lk automatically stopped. Shaun Stenning itself is very concerned about these things, so he eventually fought to negotiate with the twitter of relief on suspended accounts and request your cooperation in order to support Shaun’s software in the future. Very lucky in the end we can make a request that some of our accounts can be unsuspend so it can work again. I was just re-activate my personal account and keep throwing 6 other accounts. Things that I wait while it start over again is the payment via Paypal which is scheduled on January 15, 2010. Although suspended, Shaun remains promising payment of the accounts that previously produced. But after passing on January 15, 2010, I checked my Paypal account and did not found a single penny that should be transfered by TCM. After i make confirmation with Shaun, he explain to me that transfer process takes 5 days from the schedule. I waited until the date of January 20, 2010, but had not yet received anything yet. Because Shaun Stenning has a plan to come to Surabaya for a Live Training for users of the program, I decided to ask directly about this problem. Apparently my suspended master twitter account to login on twa.lk be the cause. I had to change my master account with my unsuspended twitter account to enable the payment transfer. After attend Twa.lk Live Training, I finally tried to check my payment history, and the result is like this: This is payment report from one of my accounts. Of the total income of $ 416.99 should I get, it only $ 2.15 payable. As for the $ 414.84 is click fraud. After I counted a total of 7 my account, my total income did not reach $ 5. So the conculsion is the practice of click fraud software was dominated twa.lk. It is unfortunate that many people who turned out have bad attitude and want a shortcut to make money without thinking impat to the others. From this, I can see that the % CTR of twa.lk is very low. This is very reasonable considering that even Google Adsense that is very big sometimes got a low % CTR, although the Adsense locations sometimes stuck in the middle of our blog content. Moreover, advertising of twa.lk located in the upper right corner that is obviously can be recognized as advertising link. Of course a lot of Internet users avoid to click on this link. My 2 new accounts that I created after the suspend do not produce well. With the control of click fraud, it’s impossible to do fraud click anymore. The twa.lk software show it’s true form. For almost 2 weeks, my account has not producing any income. I still think positively about this program, and with some experimental modifications I had hoped this program could at least produce though not much. For Shaun Stenning, I also expect to continue improving the software’s performance and still provide support which I think already pretty good. But still a good support sometimes does not enough. Because what users want is the results. If there is progress on my TCM program, I will update here. |

My keywords were paused.
If your account has been inactive (ie. you haven't logged in) for over 2 months, we will "pause" your account. This helps us maintain twa.lk for active users and keeps thing moving quickly for everyone else. Don't worry, when you log back in, you can "un-pause" your account.
