DO NOT BUY WP-CLONER FROM WWW.MASS-AUTOMATION.COM
March 23rd, 2010 | 
Author: (1) Unless you are at pretty much expert level with php, ioncube loaders and understand what a dll file is and how this all works together, you are wasting your money because you just won’t be able to get it to work.
(2) If like me you were sucked in by the sales page on WP CLONER from mass automation tools at www.mass-automation.com please tell me if you managed to get a refund as I can’t get one. Every ticket that I have sent using their ticket system has been replied to in unhelpful terms, quite rude in fact. All I want is my money back for a product that was bought in error and never used. I asked for the refund IMMEDIATELY after realising that my purchase was a mistake.
(3) I bought WP CLONER $99 licence version and realised after only a few minutes that it would not work on my server (which is windows based, whereas their software only works on linux based servers). I bought this software unaware that it was useless to me. When I told mass-automation.com this using their ticket system, I got nothing but grief – THREE TIMES they have replied to my tickets quoting procedures rather than being helpful. Making me jump through hoops to get a refund. I will post here on my site topseotools.info when (IF) I ever get my money back. In the meantime I am going to bookmark this post EVERY DAY with BookMarkingDemon on 100 bookmark sites, each time using a different bookmarking account. I AM NOT A HAPPY CUSTOMER and am happy to tell the world this, just like my site sings the praises of software and services that WORK AS PROMISED.
HONESTLY I do not know if wp-cloner from mass automation .com is any good or not. What I can say without doubt is, in my opinion, their after sales / customer service is PATHETIC and god help you if you have an issue with them. Timewasting Jobs-Worths! although I get the feeling from the lack of refund that this may really be a one-man band.
I HAVE NOW PURCHASED Mike Filisame’s WordPress Cloner instead - I won’t be giving this a long review as suffice to say that I got it working within 5 minutes and my first batch of clones within the first hour – brilliant – and for $97.00, (about UK£60) which is CHEAPER THAN MASS-AUTOMATION WP-CLONER. Sent a ticket to Mike’s team asking a question, got a reply within the hour, polite, helpful and exactly what I was after.
Yep, if you want to build a massive amount of wordpress sites QUICKLY and EASILY get Mike’s WordPress Cloner.
HAVE I GOT A REFUND from MASS-AUTOMATION.COM YET? = NO.

Hi it’s me again Beepy1968. Look guys, many people read this blog post and I’ll be honest with you, it has earned me a LOT of commission from recommending Mikes’ WordPress Cloner. I still to this day think it’s the best product out there for cloning wordpress sites. But to be fair to you, my readers, I have to give you the best advice I can give, which is this: If you are simply planning to set up dozens, perhaps hundreds of wordpress sites using similar themes and the same plugins, do yourself a favour: Read my review on Autoblog System X. Using the methods Rob teaches, i.e. setting up a single wordpress installation on a multi-user platform, then setting up hundreds of blogs using the same main control panel will (a) save you loads of time in setting the sites up and (b) save you countless hours in maintenance time and (c) give you the convenience of having everything in one place and finally (d) save you the $97 it would cost to buy Mikes’ wordpress cloner. Okay?!

see my review on site!
Yep…me too.. the good news is I paid with AMEX, and I will get my money back through them. If it were Paypal…well…goodluck!
I will look at Mikes product. Thanks for the recommendation.
Thanks mate, I was looking for a cheaper version, and found it on IM Cash Saver. But I’m not going to bother. I wanted to roll out a few hundred adsense sites – but there’s no way I’m going to code it myself to do so. Did you find any other software that’s GUI based, and easy to use?
Cheers

If only I had found this review before I bought the product.
It is not so much the product (although it IS crap) as it is the diabolical lack of after-sales support.
The front man, Matt (not sure of his surname – I think it’s Asshole) is a complete and utter jerk-off.
He lacks any social skills whatsoever, and is the laziest ‘mo-fo’ I have ever met.
48 hours it has taken for me to succeed in making contact with this tosspot, and even then its excuse after excuse after excuse.
Have you seen their website? It’s thrown together like a garbage can? I bought WP Cloner back in April 2010. I used it once and it worked.
The next time I tried, 2 days ago, it had an error. Their old ‘support’ area has vanished of the face of the planet, so I emailed Matt directly explaining that I could not find the link for support, so could he help me out.
He emails back saying create a support ticket. Prick. That’s why I was emailing you, you loser! I managed to find a sad excuse for a support desk on their site that had tumble-weed blowing through it and a tons of disgruntedly, bewildered users.
Then, my logins don’t work. After I registered, I find a forum…not a support desk…a forum…where you submit a post, and then pray it gets answered.
Did he answer my simple and directl questions? Did he hell, instead he sends back ‘You appear to be using an old version.’ What help is that you dumb f**k?
Okay, so they have made ‘improvements’ to the site and are running in beta. fine. But seeing as WP Garbage comes with 6 months support, would it not be a good idea to tell your customers, you freak?
After I had decoded the secret of the holy grail, using my enigma machine, I was finally registered. I post the same question….”Why did XYZ happen?” Did I get an answer? Did I hell. I get “Install the new version and then if it doesn’t work, post another ticket.”
What is it with this guy? Its he so stinking stupid that he doesn’t understand English? When I ask a question, it is because I am looking for an answer, not some half-witted dumb f**k suggestion. WHAT IS CAUSING THE PROBLEM YOU MUPPET?
So, I take a deep breath…download the latest version…and guess what? Same friggin error. So, 48 hours later, I sign up to beta-support, as requested, telling him that I have the same error…….years go by…….no response.
I end up having to telling the jerk-off on the old forum, that I have posted a support ticket on the new system. Incidentally, I marked it ‘Critical’.
So I get his reply from the old forum…okay we will look into it….”Well then shitting well look into it then you complete and utter dumb ass.”
20 mins pass, 30, 40, 50, 60….hell 1.5 hours goes by…and nothing…nada….zero. So I log in….and what does it say? That they’ve all gone home, as its been a busy day!
Honestly – words cannot describe what I think about that man….he knew 48 hours ago I had problems….and after sending me on a fruitless wild goose chase – he fux off home on a half day!
I want to hurt him…..hurt him badly. I want the world to know just what a waste of space he is, and how they should never in a million years buy his shitty product.
I WANT REVENGE! And I will not rest until I have it….or his head on a stake….I don’t really mind which.
But readers, take it from me….The guy who wrote the article above knows what he is talking about. DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE BUY THAT PILE OF SHITE WP-CLONER! IT’S YOUR CALL BUT I PROMISE YOU YOU WILL LIVE TO REGRET IT.

like I said, Mikes’ wordpress cloner cost me $97, it’s your-web-host based and creates ten clones at a time. I managed to set up 100 adsense sites in one day, fully configured and adsense ready. Two months later they are earning an average of £2 per month each from adsense clicks – not much but £200 per month for one days work! Obviously have set up a lot more sites now and I have to say, the £60 ($97) investment was money well spent, even if I did waste money on wp-cloner first. Little tip for you, you don’t even have to pay for domain names, just put them as subdomains on one main site e.g. (keyword).sitename.com. So you can create as many sites/autosites as you want for ZERO cost. Works for me
Oh dear
Me too – I am trying to get a refund through Google Checkout but they are just being stonewalled by Matt and Gambit
DON’T BUY THIS PRODUCT
