I was greatly and positively surprised, that it's possible to write "one more" book about so called internet marketing heroes, and make it a so great read, that I finished it all the way on plane from Bangkok to Amsterdam - I just could not put it down.
Now, of course why and what you can find in there. 1. Author claims himself as adsense expert, but I need to tell, he should take a writers carrier - he can write great fictions - his writing style is so great, interesting, fun and entertaining - well, I wish I could write like that. You will enjoy the writing only, not talking about the content. 2. History - in fact the book is a history based on conversations with those, who formed the industry - well, gain I need to tell, you should be from this sect - SEO/SEM/PPC/ROI/ORM and all those letter should make you dizzy and euphoric - only then you will truly enjoy this book. 3... and only then you will see some hidden gems and secrets there. Because this book is NOT written in imbecilic interview style with a really guru in marketing, where author asks: - Mhm, where you host your site? - Mhm, what is an e-book, and what is a pdf? You know what I mean. Joel Comms book is free from those imbecile questions, and more - he does not made it in interview style, instead it's flowing on like a river, smoothly, and besides the stories, author practicaly throws in a hints where he touches ths or that topic. Impressive, that's all I can say (Review Data Last Updated: 2008-12-04 04:26:01 EST)

I've been marketing products online now for about 2 years, and Joel's book does a good job of mixing the history of the internet and how it came to be (from over 50 years ago) with stories of entrepreneurs who have been successful online.
I've met about 80% of the people featured in the book in person, and Joel's book gives you an appreciation of the challenges and obstacles many of these gurus have overcome to get where they are today. If you have an appreciation for history and want a "shot in the arm" to help you create some income marketing your business online, then I highly recommend this book. This book is not a step-by-step guide to making money online, but you can leverage the stories it tells to help you achieve the same goal. In ending, I think the biggest benefit to selling products online is the lifestyle choices it can afford you. It's a business that enables you to live anywhere in the world as long as you have a computer and internet connection available to you. Joel's book has so many stories in it that you should relate to someone featured in the book and know that YOU can be successful online too as long as you dedicate yourself. Favorite quote from the book: "You've got to go to events because so many great things happen there- you can even get your wife pregnant!" -Joel Christopher (Review Data Last Updated: 2008-11-23 03:57:09 EST)

I was at one of the companies that Joel cites in the book. Every fact and I do mean every fact, even the smallest details, he writes about are incorrect. Therefore, I have little confidence in any of the 'facts' in the book. Skip this book.

I had high hopes for this book and the stories about the history of Internet marketing. The stories bogged down and almost put me to sleep--which shattered my own expectations for this book.
While the promotional materials promised a lesson in Internet history, much of it was boring and dry. Also I expected much more of a takeaway element for the reader to learn how to follow in the footsteps of successful Internet Marketers but that information isn't in this book. If you are looking for specifics, I'd skip this title. (Review Data Last Updated: 2008-11-04 04:17:56 EST)

I found Click HERE to Order an entertaining account of internet history. I learned a few things too. I find Joel's writing entertaining most of the time and in an easy going style.
I did find it hard to follow numerous times as it is neither written chronologically nor in nearly as topical a format as the table of contents may suggest. Chapters seemed to just "take off" & go totally another direction than it started out. To a certain extent I believe this is the nature of the beast considering the topic Joel is attempting to document. (Glad I wasn't MY job to document this history!) Still I, found it entertaining & worth my time & money. Since I was familiar with most of the players already it helped fill in a number of interesting gaps. Also, there was an obvious effort to do thorough research about the beginnings of the world wide web and early browsers as well. Just don't consider it as the end all, be all documentation of history of the internet & all of the marketers. It is more a good old boy accounting of many of his friends and acquaintances. Since Joel is one of the power houses of internet marketing that DOES include many (if not most) of the more important people in this industry who may be considered pioneers. So I would say, sure go ahead, purchase it, enjoy it. Rex (Review Data Last Updated: 2008-11-01 05:13:06 EST)

This is the history of Internet. Joel comm has tried to fit in everything in this book. From history to marketing. There is some technical information in there that does not relate to anything. No doubt the one on one interviews are quite interesting. You can skip the pages with technicalities and read through without missing anything. On the whole an average read.

Joel Comm has written a brief but detailed history of how the internet came to pass and how the marketing gurus came to be. It's full of personal life stories and also marketing brilliance. It's a rich text and you cannot skim it at all because there is way too much info in here. Have a pad and pen ready while you read it, because ideas just leap out at you.
Fantastic read. Recommended for anyone interested in the internet or history and especially those who are thinking of going online in business. (Review Data Last Updated: 2008-10-09 08:22:29 EST)

I have to say that although the content was fantastic - hence the 4 stars rating - I was a little disappointed at the number of typos in the text.
That aside - Joel Comm really gave me the feeling of sitting with him in a cafe as he told me the story. I felt a part of the community. Hearing the stories of others who have led the way in Internet Marketing really inspired me to get going myself. All in all - I would recommend anyone serious about making it online to read this book! (Review Data Last Updated: 2008-10-09 08:22:29 EST)

"Click Here To Order" is a fast-paced read that is well researched and highly entertaining. At first I thought this book would be a little techie but Joel Comm organizes the facts in a logical order to make them instantly comprehensible.
This book begins with a history of the Internet and then progresses to inspiring case studies. These are real-life examples of major players who have been incredibly successful by following their passion. By reading this book you can learn some of the secrets of creating good content and find out some hot tips about list building. There is a revealing chapter on spam and information on the real "father of the Internet." The history of the Internet is a highlight of the book but the list of Internet Marketers and their websites is worth the price of the book. Perry Marshall, Rich Schefren, Jay Abraham and John Carlton are all mentioned. Reading "Click Here To Order" reminded me of the day I noticed my millionth site visitor so I know it is possible. To me, it isn't about making a lot of money it is about helping the world to find great books but my site pays for itself. "Click Here To Order" will give you an inside look at what it takes to make your own site a success. Whether you are looking for name recognition, a million dollars or you want to raise money for your favorite charity, this book has a lot of inspiring stories to motivate you towards your goal. ~The Rebecca Review (Review Data Last Updated: 2008-10-09 08:22:29 EST)

I dont get much time to read these days but this was a must for me as it spoke of many people I had read about for two to three years and even bought products from. I took it with me on a recent business trip to Spain (where I am writing this from) and read it cover to cover in two days.
Having bought and implemented Joel's higher priced products with great success in the past, this book at the price he is charging is a no brainer...read it! What I got out of it personally was a lot more than the actual "guts" itself (which was actually highly motivational and incredibly interesting). What it did for me was to put a background and history to all the people I had been receiving emails from for the past few years. It made them seem more real, trustworthy, likeable and made me feel more at ease about buying any of their future products. I have been in many areas of sales from multilevel to timeshare to real estate plus a few more and I have developed a rather thick skin and skeptical attitude. This book took all that away and has motivated me even more to "keep on keeping on"! Nice one Joel! Nick Stubbs All Things Photography (Review Data Last Updated: 2008-10-09 08:22:29 EST)

Click Here To Order: Stories of the World's Most Successful Internet Marketing Entrepreneurs, by Joel Comm.
Joel Comm is a pretty famous internet marketer and promoter of himself and others. He has written an interesting history of how numerous people have made their mark on the evolution of internet marketing and what they have succeeded in marketing via the internet. If you don't know who any of the marketers are when you first read this you can just skim over their names and learn about the concepts, like ebooks, autoresponders, squeeze pages, pay-per-click, affiliates, pop-ins, teleseminars, dashboards, opt-ins, one time offers, copywriting, list building, and more. There is an index in the back of the book to help you find topics. There is also an extensive directory of people mentioned throughout the book with their web addresses, as well as information about how to see this directory online, as it's updated. Mr. Comm is thorough in his work. If a person is completely new to internet marketing, the dozens of people in this book are the masters to learn from. Bottom line: buy this because these people are the real deal. If you have ever been scammed, buy this book and learn the ropes so you can avoid future mistakes and detours.

Excellent job on this - I liked seeing the different 'success stories' from some of the world's top internet marketers. The variety of examples, plus what they did to achieve success, was genuinely useful.
Solid "buy" recommendation on this -- great work on it, Joel! Ken Calhoun (Review Data Last Updated: 2008-09-18 09:37:08 EST)

I have been researching internet-Marketing for over a year, looking for my point-of-entry. After purchasing several books and courses (some good and some bad), I was still a bit confused and frustrated.
My IM Path is much clearer now. Joel Comm has connected the dots and inspired me to "JUMP-IN" and have fun working on the web. Plus, I've thought of six or seven ideas I can monitize on the net. I highly recommend, Click Here To Order, to those of you who are looking to gain a better understanding of "Who" is successful "What" they do and "How" they developed their ideas. Then, challenge yourself to emulate the successes that leap out from the pages of this book. Jim Freeman, Las Vegas (Review Data Last Updated: 2008-09-18 09:37:08 EST)

For those of us who market primarily online, it's an ever changing world out there. Remaining informed on internet trends and changing markets venues is almost a full time job, and the news we hear about market conditions and the future of the internet marketer is not always cheery. Fortunately, Joel Comm has written a book filled with inspiring internet success stories that may very well fuel your own internet success.
The internet is the last great frontier for entrepreneurs; there are upsides and downsides to marketing in this way, and one of the major downsides is that it's a often solitary, isolating way to work. Your work world can be as tiny as a keyboard and you, sometimes for much of the day. So what's the draw, you might ask. Some of us market this way because first of all we can, because the internet eliminates geographic boundaries making every human with a computer and an online connection a prospective customer, and because it puts a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow within everyone's reach. However, staying focused and motivated in this tiny work world can be challenging. This book will help internet entrepreneurs to stay pumped by sharing the success stories of internet pioneers who have succeeded beyond their dreams, doing roughly what each of us who markets exclusively online is doing. Some obviously did it better than most, but that's okay. The internet as a marketing medium is as fluid as the sea, changing daily and creating openings for new ways of doing things and new products. If you market online largely or exclusively, I recommend this book. I think you'll find that it's like your favorite comfort food, giving you that warm fuzzy feeling after a hard day's work...at the keyboard. (Review Data Last Updated: 2008-09-07 01:16:36 EST)
