On a personal note

Appreciate using Healbot? Do this, earn yourself money and show your appreciation all in one =)

Don't know which price comparison web site is best for you???... Simple get you own and pay yourself the affiliate commission you would normally pay them.

You start with your own internet shop, like this one.
Lots of retailers are linked to the shop and you can buy almost anything, try searching and see.
When you buy from your own internet shop, your redirected to the retailers website and the link contains a reference so the retailers know who to pay a commission.

Now here is the clever bit, tell all your friends they too can have an internet shop that finds the best prices and pays them for shopping, get them to tell their friends, you also get a commission on your friends shopping at 7 levels.


It takes less than 2mins to setup and it is totally free, you can get your own internet shop here.
