HotlinkALARM: The Day 2 Report
Wednesday, January 16, 2008
As you likely have heard, Will Bontrager, Willie Crawford and I released Hotlink Alarm yesterday.
That made today the first day customers awakened to HotlinkALARM protection of their images, PDFs, videos, audios and other files. It makes them feel good -- and it makes us feel good.
Customers already have reported that HotlinkALARM and its one-of-a-kind, email-alert system are doing the job.
I remember the first Alert email I received when HotlinkALARM caught a person pirating my proprietary images.
"Thank you," I thought to myself.
You're likely to feel the very same way. Some of you are apt even to be stunned by the number of websites that have helped themselves to your digital images, pulling them directly off your server at your expense.
I'd seen HotlinkALARM in action prior to it catching an actual digital pirate, of course. We used in on a couple of testing domains .
I knew I'd receive the Alert emails. And I knew that I'd see the HotlinkALARM replacement images on the testing site when I viewed the page.
But when Hotlink Alarm caught the first actual hotlinker, well, that's when the power of our product really struck me. A person licensed himself to my property; he didn't ask, he simply took it.
And HotlinkALARM notified me right away that the hotlinking was occurring.
It's not just for images; HotlinkALARM also guards files such as PDFs, videos, and audios, for example.
A nice groundswell of support for HotlinkALARM is developing.
Willie is conducting a teleseminar Friday, Jan. 18, from 2 p.m. to 3 p.m. CST. Will and I will be guests.
I'll let you know how to access the teleseminar tomorrow.
Have a good HotlinkALARM day, Friend.
