SmithBux - Is it taking things too fast?

Recently released PTC website SmithBux - cloned to look like #1 PTC website NeoBux.com just added some new features to it’s website. It’s added the lights of PayPal within a week thinking that they will be let off like NeoBux. But, unfortunately, NeoBux is much more established and has a memberbase to back the community up. SmithBux which has just released, cloned almost everything from NeoBux including it’s systems and even their design structure follows a good example; “Following others making us follow their success” - But, some things take time. It’s just like opening a new payment processor and expecting to be as huge as PayPal because you’re copying everything from them. Unfortunately it sounds nice, but that’s just how it does not work.

We’re very confident that if they take things too fast they will appraise themselves for a lot of grief and stress. If they fail to deliver any payments, their is going to be some concern; It’s very hard to tick off things now. They are just following NeoBux and expect to make millions, but if it was that simple - We’d all do it, right?
“Good things don’t always come” even if you follow others success tips because you need to interpret it in your own uniqueness to make others want to follow you rather than them. People can’t be visiting two websites at the same time, they will pick the best and the most popular and recommended always seem to be the “hit”. It does have a reason though, because their more trusted than any other and that a lot more people use them. It’s more of a tradition, If one does others certainly follow. Some follow by cloning, others copy by developing it in their own aspect with uniqueness.

Now-a-days if you don’t have any unique features at all you’re going to have a higher percentage of failing, because bigger sites get advertisers to them as new sites such as SmithBux has to pull advertisers to them but it just doesn’t seem to succeed. The NeoBux Admin, Fernandes, has clearly stated “Our advertisements aren’t our own” and that’s a correct statement. If you display your own ads the whole aspect is broken and in the long run will lose the owner money and lose the users trust with the website. If they don’t trust your website they won’t invest any money in it and then the wheel breaks and the site will go downhill so fast you will forget. This kind of stuff is up to the admin to decide, and making a quick PTC clone with a under-professional design with fast moves just doesn’t make it good. This kind of statement is followed by many, but this one has just jumped exactly like NeoBux .. one hundred percent.

Honest people will know that sites will only succeed with uniqueness and originality. That’s what I would think, and I’m highly certain others will agree with me.
