with adverts alone you would surely be looking at an easy 3,000 per month, imagine if you had several sites, I bet a nice return could be made
See, Getbiggers, from the above quote - provided by Matt C - one can observe there to be a database of Canning's old forum (where both he and Dan would converse) we'd like to thank him for revealing that fact to the world LOL.
It is however, a shame he refuses to make said database public; preferring instead to employ 'snippets' here and there.
Since Matt wishes to assert that everyone other than him is making "groundless claims", and since Matt is the one whom will not release the database (by virtue that said database would corroborate Dans claims) one can only conclude Canning to be quite the guilty fruit!
Yeah, Matt, you are so correct; Dan "obviously wants a stake in your site"... that's why he, Evo and I, oh I dunno, all left after asking you to delete our accounts; WE WASHED OUR HANDS OF YOU! mongol!
Addendum to the above: Matt was told by a colleague to cease and desist calumniating Mr Duchaine; however, and in light of Canning's previous post, it appears Matt Canning wishes the perpetuation of this affair? but no matter, the game is fun, to wit:
so wait a second,, matt c has been in bodybuild circles long time? is he havign that site for long time? is he realy in the insides that much? i didnt knwo he was so involved ,,tell the thunderdome more ,, id like to read
gh15 approved
Well, gh15, in the context of which [I believe] you refer, Matt has not been in "bodybuilding circles" for a long time. However, matt has been doing his 'thing' with his bodybuilding site for years now.
He seems more comfortable in his virtual schmoe world; however over the last few months, Canning has began venturing out. It's only a matter of time though, before those ventures turn to shit, he will play something wrong, mark my words.
Canning's site came about, arguabley, by accident more so than by design ie: over the years, Matt would just add any old shit to it - supps reviews, DVD reviews etc - thus thereafter BBpro would find itself subsequently indexed by search engines and Matt, in a somewhat unbeknownst fashion, came to possess a website with potential, fair enough.
The only problems being: a) Matt himself had no clue of the potential therein, and b) is incapable of doing anything with his website by virtue that he is the archetypal lazy fuck; his world so full of "danger and family threats"! LOL
gh15, I'll tell you a little story involving Matt and some European steroid dealers.We had a couple of firms sniffing around for advertising; Duchaine knew one of them in an associative kind of way from a few years back.
Duchaine explained to them that whilst bbpro appeared to be a shitpile of random bopdybuilding articles, with a cretin for an admin etc, it was in fact a huge site with a good amount of traffic; that it subsequently possessed an alexa ranking on par (and in some cases better than) one or two of the top bodybuilding websites (not sure which, but I believe professional muscle was one, possibly outlaw muscle? not sure, but the point stands).
Professional muscle was pulling down (as you are no doubt aware) a high end six figures from advertising alone; anyone whom has seen the banner ads, and the concurrent advertising rates therein, followed by some simple math, could observe suchlike to be the case. Canning had NO clue of this; he possessed fuck all knowledge of just how much these other sites were pulling down, much less the potential worth of his site. He was honestly flabbergasted when Dan Duchaine presented him with the figures. Incidentally, this "education" was just another aspect of Dan "waking Matt up" to how corrupt most forums are, vis a vis, the fact that all of the large forums (and all of the mods therein the steroid forums) are in bed with not only UG labs, but also supps and ancillaries companies alike... to the tune of millions of dollars each year.
It was Dan Ducahine whom opened Canning's eyes on that score. Not in a roundabout way (of the type most forum members will post) but with specific examples and figures; you know the score gh15, you'll understand
Moving on; we had a couple of firms approach us; Duchaine explained to Matt that it would be a good money spinner to work with the various labs (some based in Moldova, others not) but that Matt would HAVE to pull his thumb from his ass and renovate the website. You have to understand, Duchaine presented Matt with a plan to get into bed with some UG labs, of whom, and unbeknownst to Canning, were very big labs.
These labs were interested in advertising - by virtue of the fact bbpro had a good amount of 'thru traffic' ie: lots of folks passing through. Dan had convinced them of that; of the potential economic utility represented by bbpro and it's attendant thru traffic etc.
However, their interest was predicated on the website being revamped... and guess who was making promises of revamping things? yeah, twat C. Like his head, Canning's promises are empty.At this point, Dan asked Matt if he [canning] wanted to go ahead with this, if he wanted to get into bed with a few choice contacts etc. Dan outlined clearly that some of these firms - as gh15 you can attest - are not to be messed about etc. Canning, replied in the affirmative, AT NO POINT giving any indication other than "yeah, lets go".
Now, as Dan knew how much of a lacklustre twat Canning was/is, he SPECIFICALLY requested from Matt, a timeline (read "a date") for the revamped site to be in place. Canning gave Dan a promise that work would be completed, that he [canning] had "notified his web master; that the work shall be done by "xyz" etc.
With that, Dan was making arrangements behind the scenes with two particular UG labs in Eastern Europe; giving them assurances that everything will be in place by "xyz".
Yeah, you guessed it, Matt Canning let the whole fucking show down!As it became apparent that the useless twat had scuppered not only the potential deals that were on the table, but also heavily jeopardized Dan, you can imagine Mr Duchaine was not too happy; yeah ok, Dan should have known better than to attempt to do business with a ponce like Canning, fair enough, hands up on that front.
I have to emphasise, it must not be underestimated what Duchaine had been discussing with his contacts. It had been outlined to matt, that the ongoing discussions were covering many aspects, everything from advertising, thru storage, re-mailing and production - all of which canning was quite happy with.
As said, it was all fucked up on account of canning's bone idle and incompetent ways.
At NO point did Canning ever say "I want out", indeed - and conversely - he in fact was like an excitable, keen little kid going into this.gh15, you can confirm this, but - and I'll tell you straight - Matt has no idea of how close he came on that occasion; honestly, if he had made his way to a show in Europe that year, the fuckers legs would have been done! If "Mouth Canning" doubts that, let him mail me at his site with the time and date of his entering the EU, more so Latvia, Poland or Estonia - or other 'suitable' nation - and we'll see how it goes.
After this, the latest in the long line of dopey Matt's bodybuilding 'business' fuck ups, it was decided "enough was enough". Dan had been vindicated - a little burnt, and to a degree embarrassed - but none the less vindicated; the above shenanigans (thereafter stacked with matts rimming of Alex23) was enough for Dan to, finally, assert matt canning to be persona non grata, and fuck him off down the road.
Honestly, if anyone doubts Matt to be an incompetent clown, then by all means, go into business with him.
Oh and, don't even get me started on the MANY MANY MANY FUCKIN MANY times Canning would beg guru Dan to discuss "establishing a North American counterfeit supps ring", the many times of which were ignored by Dan, and now Idiot Canning knows why LOL.
Evo can corroborate the above nugget; Canning does "irritating, inert bastard" like nobody else!Honestly, and as the old axiom goes "you can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make it drink"; however, and attendant to this, there are some horses you wouldn't mind seeing clubbed and left to drown in said water, but hey
Come on Matt, lets have the counter point, lets hear the "piss and wind" rebuttal.
