Hate Marketing? Hate Marketing!

I saw a site last week that someone had put up that was created to get "revenge" on a girlfriend. The revenge seemed to be to post nude photos of the girl to cause her problems. But I could see right away that the site was a fake. It was, well I won't describe what tipped me off because I don't want people to learn how to refine this kind of work. Let's just say it was done well enough to fool about 80% of the people that saw it. I think this is the first example of hathotic marketing that I have seen. 

Today, I saw another one, and this one was found by an ad selling a script to CREATE sites like this. The "demo" site for the script was ihateyoujulia.com.

You can have a site like that for only $40. The bad thing is that it's cheap enough for many to afford a copy. The good thing is that it's cheap enough for many to afford a copy. I say this because as more of these kinds of sites are seen, they will fool fewer and fewer people. The idea behind this script is that you get others to help you get links and traffic to your site. If you do that they they have additional content (nude photos, etc.) that they show you for helping them.

Here are some others that I have found:

ihateyoumary.info
jessicababson.com
ihateyoualexis.com
partnersecrets.com
ihateyourachel.com
ihateallie.com

I think I found the site that started this trend: ihateyouscript.com. The ad that I saw that was selling this did mention that it could be used for other things and I did see a few sites that were offering ah, less offensive content.

If you are thinking this is a great idea, I saw a post on one of the forums where a guy was asking for help. It seems that he was contacted by someone that KNEW the girl whose photos were on his site and if he didn't remove them he was going to tell her. The site owner didn't know what to do since he was getting traffic... pathetic.
