Review: Is Niche Blitzkrieg A Scam? We Got The Inside Scoop

Niche Blitzkrieg Scam Review

Niche – is from an Old French word, nichier, meaning to nest.  Blitzkrieg – (got to ask my bilingual German husband about this one!) is from two German words; blitz which means lightning and krieg which means war. Michael the developer and owner of Niche Blitzkrieg(NB) allowed us a sneak peek into his nest where he is having a lightning war!  Just kidding!

In our culture, niche means your little spot, a very little area all your own.  With lightning quick speed, you’ll learn how to effectively utilize massive bombs in the form of websites which produce your victory in this war that we call “finances”! Here’s how it happened … HomeGrownMommy (HGM) is a relatively new presence in the blogosphere, so we have really been watching our stats very closely.  One thing we (my husband and I) noticed very quickly was the buzz about this NB program and that it was spreading to HGM as well.  I recently did an email interview with Joe at IveTriedThat.com and he recommended NB as a good way to make money online.  People were finding our website because they were searching the web for information on the “Niche Blitzkrieg scam”. I want HGM to provide real value and service to our readers.  I saw a need in the form of more information on NB so I filled it by immediately contacting Michael and asking for an interview with him.  He very graciously allowed me an inside peek into NB so that I could much more accurately report back to my faithful readers.  In my opinion, just that gesture on Michael’s part began to prove to me that this is certainly not a scam.  But, I continued to dig into it to make a solid case.  You are now reading the results of that digging. What Is It?

  • Niche Blitzkrieg is a training program.  The course walks you step-by-step through creating websites like this and this. (These are Michael’s very own demo sites.)
  • Niche Blitzkrieg is fast.  The process to creating these websites is much quicker than what I am currently doing with HomeGrownMommy.  It’s not that either method is better or worse, just different processes with different outcomes.
  • Niche Blitzkrieg is about 8 months old and has already had 1600+ students.

What Do I Need To Know Upfront?

  • Fees. Your total out-of-pocket costs will depend on how closely you follow the recommended steps.
    • As a total initial start-up cost for a package of 10 websites following Michael’s advice to the “T”, you would be looking at around $400.
    • If you do not follow all the recommendations, which you can do and still make money, you would be looking at about less than $200 for a package of 10 sites.
    • Both start-up amounts include the Niche Blitzkrieg program fee of $77 to enter the doors.
    • Buying domain names and finding a host site (all of which Michael very expertly walks you through) also have fees attached to them.  This step is pretty much mandatory.
      • Each domain name (for instance www.YourNameHere.com) costs about $10.
      • The hosting costs about $10 and is the only monthly recurring fee.  The host site is only one fee – you can have as many websites on one host as you would like.
    • There are a few other non-mandatory steps that include fees in order to utilize the resource Michael talks about.

These are not additional fees that are going to Niche Blitzkrieg, but other websites and resources that Michael recommends in order to really get your websites out there for people to see.    If you can achieve what Michael and others have with their sites, it would be a comparatively small investment to make. And, let’s face it, there is nothing out there that is going to pull in a very good income that is free.  Anything that is really worth doing is going to cost you something – whether its time or money.  Your regular job costs you lots of time.  This program may cost an amount of money from the get-go, but your overall time investment is far less.

  • Techie Stuff.  You do not need to be technically savvy to make money online.
    • Michael proves himself to be a very good teacher.  He walks you through each and every step with videos and a well laid out online training manual.
    • There are screen shots of almost every move you make within the program.
    • Contact information is prominently displayed.  When you jump into this program and you won’t be left hanging if you have a question or are having a hard time with some portion of the course.
    • There are forums!  Not only can you glean from Michael, but there are others who are in the program already that roam the forums to provide feedback about their successes and their questions.

Show Me The Money.

  • Some people have started making money on their websites within weeks.  Michael gives testimony that he was able to quit his job after one year of following the Niche Blitzkrieg model.
  • The way you make money is through affiliate marketing (commissions) and pay-per-click ads.  Because of the methods NB employs, your sites will rank very high on search engines and therefore, see lots of traffic.

What Do I Have To Do?

  • Find a niche.  Michael covers the “how-to” of this initial step.  You will be researching keywords and figuring out what topics appeal to you.  Set aside a Saturday afternoon to complete this part of the task.
  • Set up a website.  With the videos and screen shots provided, you will be done with this part before you know it.
  • Optimize the website through indexing, links and traffic so that people see it when they search for your topic.
  • From beginning to end, it would probably take a weekend to set up your first site.  After that, it just gets more efficient as you begin to streamline your movements.

Only a weekend to set up your business?  If any of you reading this article have ever tried to set up a small “bricks and mortar” type business, you know full well that it does NOT take one weekend to set things up properly!  You also know that it does not take weeks to make your first dollar.  My husband and I recently went through the process of trying to set up a business and it was complicated, tied tightly to the government and their red-tape and was just a huge headache that cost us much more than the initial start-up cost of this program. Verdict?  NOT a scam.  This is a real money making program created by a real person who has made real money by following it methods!!  He does not make huge unattainable promises that neither Michael himself nor others have truly experienced.  He is living the success and so are many of his students.  Could you be next? This is not a paid advertisement! Over the next weeks and months, I plan to post updates on our success with the course.  My husband has begun setting up one site and has ideas for others.  Our goal would be to start seeing some financial results, even small ones, within six months or so. Check out the Niche Blitzkrieg site and let me know if you have any questions for Michael.  I’d be happy to do an interview with him to target your specific questions.  Make sure to sign up for my RSS Feed or email updates so you don’t miss any future articles about Niche Blitzkrieg.Niche Blitzkrieg Trial

Thank you for this article it is informative. I do have some questions though. This business is about setting up websites? For who and what businesses are you setting them up for? Obviously they must be real businesses, right? The links you showed were for a pool or tiling company and some other business, how did you get in contact with the owner of this business to set up their site? I’m probably showing my inexperience with my questions, but that’s what’s on my mind when I consider NB.

(I sent this to Jill directly via email, but thought more people may be able to benefit from the information …)
Hi there Jill! Thanks so much for stopping by the site! I really appreciate the visit! And, I am so glad you stopped for a moment to ask questions rather than to go away confused! I wish everyone did that! :)

You asked, “This business is about setting up websites?” You won’t be working for Niche Blitzkrieg or starting your own business necessarily, you’ll be starting a website or several websites. Niche Blitzkrieg is a training program to teach you how to set up websites that will earn money. The websites are not for specific companies – although we try to make it look very professional and it ends up looking like a company website. You pick a topic or product and create your own website which will provide useful information about your chosen topic. For instance, my husband started two websites, one for scuba diving which he has never done and doesn’t know a whole lot about and one for frisbee golf which he enjoys immensely and plays as often as he can.

He went through the Niche Blitzkrieg program where he learned how to find good topics or products. Then, he did his own research based on what he learned. He bought a website name (domain name) and starting building his site. So, the pool coping site that you found is not necessarily linked with a company – it is just a topic that Michael started his own site around.

Do you have any experience with Google and the ads they have on all kinds of websites? That is one of the ways that you would make money on your website. When people find your site, it is likely that they will click on a Google link that you set up within your site. (Michael does a great job of walking you through this, step by step.) For every click, whether the visitors buy something or not, you earn money.

Also, there are affilitate programs. My husband found a company that sells frisbee golf discs. He signed up to be an affiliate. It means that he agrees to promote their products on his website and they agree that any time a customer places an order through his website, they will give him a portion of the profits. Amazon has an affiliate program and they pay you 15% of all sales. Other people only pay you 2%, some people will pay as much as 60% of all sales. It just depends on who you hook up with.

Clear as mud? :)

I hope I was able to answer some of your questions. Please do not hesitate to email me again if I haven’t explained this well enough for you. We’re having lots of fun with the program so far and would love to see you jump on board with us!!

Hi,
Thank you very much for your review.

Are you familiar with Wealthy Affiliates? I’m a newbie and trying to decide between Niche Blitzkrieg and WA–I’ve read good things about both. At WA they include the cost of websites — wouldn’t that eliminate a lot of the cost? I’m trying to get in cheap and start making money asap. Any input would be well appreciated!

Thank you so much–I really like your site.

Hello!

You seem very helpful. Does Niche Blitzkrieg teach you to become an affiliate marketer like Wealthy Affiliates? What exactly is a affiliate marketer? If I became one would i have to push products?

Can you compare WA and NB?

Thanks!!!!

Georgia,

Hi I’m the creator of Niche Blitzkrieg. Saw your question while I was browsing the site and thought I’d help you here.

The difference between NB and WA is that NB focuses more on a specific type of affiliate marketing. This is a way to get multiple sites up and ranked in the top of the search engines as fast as possible.

Another difference is that NB is a one time up front fee where as WA is a monthly charge. Both are great programs, not knocking WA at all here.

As far as the cost of the website included I am not sure what you mean? If you’re paying them monthly and then they also give you perhaps a subdomain that won’t really cut your costs. You’re going to want each site you create to run on it’s own domain and not on a subdomain. A domain name will only cost you around $9 per year and webhosting and hosting around $10 per month (you can host unlimited domains). So expenses inside NB are very minimal.

Hope that helps.

Thank you so much, Michael, for stepping in and responding for me!! I really appreciate that!

To my audience: THAT is one of the reasons I like Niche Blitzkrieg so much – Michael is really involved in the folks that buy his product. He doesn’t just take the money and run to the bank. He actually cares whether or not you make money. When I emailed him to ask if I could review his product, he emailed right away and was very helpful in our dealings. Recently, I emailed Wealthy Affiliate because many have been coming to the website looking for a review on that as well or at least a comparison. They still have not even responded back to my email – which tells me something.

You are getting a great product when you purchase Niche Blitzkrieg – and GREAT support in your endeavor to make money online. If he takes the time to visit reviewers websites and actually helps out with comments, what else is he willing to do to make sure you are successful?

Thanks again Michael!!

Dana,

Yes you’ll learn how to be an affiliate marketer.

Affiliate marketing is basically when you promote someone else,s products or services and you earn a commission for your efforts. Essentially you become a middle man.

The cool part is you don’t have to handle, shipping, restocking, storing supplies, refunds or customer service. Those things are all done by the merchant.

You earn a % of what you sell and are paid by the individual merchants you’re promoting.

:) Whatever route you go – enjoy. Affiliate marketing is great.

Hi Herb,
My name is Ryan. I don’t know, if you still check up on new topics through here, but in response to you question, if you go to http://www.makecashnow.biz and then type in Internet Work At Home Scams, it should come up with a listing of over 300 different work at home programs that don’t work well for people! I hope this information helps you. As I have been doing some researching on different work at home opportunities, I’d personally go with Niche Blitzkreig, as I haven’t found any flaws in the system and alot of people on different review forums, have had good success with it, over time! Take care.

Good afternoon thank you for having this site and commenting on Mike’s product it is very informative, I am trying to find the best one I can afford to get started with i have tried other ones that promised and garaunteed thousands from the get-go but a month and a half later I was way farther in debt and putting out three times more than I was bringing in, so if you don’t mind I would like to ask about the sites your husband has started up, how much has it cost to start these sites and get them running, like I said I am trying to find something I can afford I am retired military with a messed up back that the military does not want to pay for and i can,t work my retirement pay is a joke that only stretches so much every month, my credit card is almost maxed so once again I am trying to find a program like this to try and pay some every month to help with the bills here at home, I am sorry for this being so long and I don’t mean to cry on your shoulder if that is what it sounds like, thank you for your time.

Hi, I have been an on and off e-bayer for a while and although I have made some money on e-bay I would like to get started on a more profitable endeavor. The hardest thing that hits people are up front fees and monthly fees. I’ve never gotten involved in any of the marketing schemes that are out there and know absolutely nothing about it. So, as being somewhat computer savvy and knowledgeable but, having no expereince in marketing I would need more detail as to what I would encounter along the way . Thanks, Mike

First, I have to agree with everyone who has posted a positive response in regards to this site. I feel that this is honest information and has mostly encouraged me to give it a go. As a hard working, hands-on guy I have worked long days, weeks and months, pouring my honest hard work into a job to get high up the corp. ladder only to be laid off due to lack of work. Now it is very difficult to replace the income I built a life around (and it’s running out quick). I plan to get moving on this tomorrow, applying as much time as needed to develop whatever I have to do in order to hopefully see something coming in over the next few months. I haven’t ever built a website, but I think I understand how marketing this way can pay. I almost got ropped into this company called Pre-Paid Legal (MLM – no thanks! I care about keeping friends and family – my opinion only). Does anyone have any suggestions that might help myself and others like me become successful with the upmost ethics?
Thanks again for this great site.

Fingers crossed successful,

Hi,
I have been researching working from home, Extra income. and there are so many scams out there. I liked the idea that the whole Google Profit system showed but the more I research it the more I find that it is all a scam. I do believe there has got to be a legit program out there the has the same sort of system, I mean thats what this world is about now a days is the WEB. so someone has to be doing all the work. So I stumbled on this program and am really trying to research it to my best to find out if it is a scam or not. I do believe you will only see FUNDS as long as you are willing to work hard at it. but one question I have on this program is: How are you paid for the CLICKS? who pays for them if you are not Directly going tru a website?
Thank you so much for posting this information.
Thanks, Christine

Hi, I’m currently in college and just got hit with some future financial problems and so I have been researching making money at home things that could help me out and I noticed that Niche Blitzkrieg doesn’t have a single bad review that I can find yet and then I found this site and noticed that he even replied to some people’s concerns on here, AWAY from his own website. I have to say I like the way this is starting to look…..but I am wondering…..if enough people are doing this…will the best domain names or key words or marketing ideas or “niches” not….run out eventually?……The only reason I don’t want to say “all hands on board” right now is….well…because I fear that I’m just too late for it.
Thanks in advance, Jonathon

Hi Jonathan and thanks so much for stopping by!

Michael coming over here and responding to some questions really is a huge testimony to the way he runs his whole business! He’s a great guy and I am sure he will continue to be helpful in the future.

I definitely would not worry about niche phrases running out any time soon. I totally understand what you are saying – but just realize how specific there phrases are – one of Michael’s examples is “pool coping saw”. Just one little tool! You could pick an area like fashion and narrow it waaaaaay down to shoelaces for workboots! The possibilities are virtually endless.

I definitely don’t think you are too late! You have unique experiences and ideas that will lead you to create unique niche phrases (as you are drifting off to sleep sometimes!) :)

Hope you have lots of success with Niche Blitzkrieg!

Thanks for your site/info/advice/cautions/diligence. First time here and feel I’m onto core facts, truths and learning.Huge realization, I’m not alone in shock of ‘years in a very good job,
lack of work caused layoff’ scenario.
Finished reading all of your site so far and getting glimmer of
real legitimate options. Keeping the panic down as good as possible for the moment, it dawns that one needs a road to sort of hold back the tide. Rather clear page of what to do next. Intelligently find opportunity and dive in head first.
sum up quick review of where I’m at. how much money left
what’s owing when. Current income without paycheck. Get unemployment insurance going. Tight review of expenses, cull, reduce costs, basically keep afloat. Lazer focus & immersion in best income producing opportunity and get going NMW (No Matter What)
I need a best form of short daily quick sheet to keep me nailed hourly to this purpose and my new direction. You know, – income in expenses out, well culled for next 30 days, then the next 30 days. Do you know whqat I mean? Do you have one of these, or the direction to get this personal time sheet idea? I can’t be the only one who needs this basic structure to adhere to day by day while putting work ethic and new mind set into full swing for a new income.
The info on Niche Blitzkrieg is what brought me to your site, much appreciated and I’m going ahead with this before 8am this morning. Don’t want to need hand holding, do want structure to ‘Blitz’ my own hours and days bringing income I can continue to build on. Do want increase massive action on my part and daily achieve massive results. Have done it before and see myself doing mega better. Im thankful for your site and work. (p.s. how about that for a ” Niech” ?…Help! I’ve been laid off. What to do next? Calm down, take inventory, how to talk to yourself, all on one sheet of course, your not alone, ..that sort of thing)

I have to say I am a VERY big skeptic and the Niche Blitzkrieg money making system does look to good to be true and they say usually when something looks that way, it is. However, all of the research I have done so far on it, I haven’t seen anyone say anything bad about it. I also seen that Michael himself has even answered some questions on here about his program and some others which shows me he is for real. Now before I make any kind of investment in anything, I always check out the company with the BBB (Better Business Bureau) When I checked to see if they had anything on Michael and the Niche Blitzkrieg system they said that they tried contacting him but he never got back with them so they gave his company an F out of an A+ to an F. which I don’t think is right. They said they don’t have enough information on him to make a decision. I personally think Michael if you want to get a lot more people interested in your system, I would contact the BBB and answer their questions and maybe even become accredited with them. That’s just a suggestion. I really know nothing about it to be honest.

I’m a 50 year old disabled musician singer songwriter who is real tired of getting ripped off. I have constant chronic back pain and depression from a work injury to my back that happened in 1995.

I’m on SSD and I’m drowning in medical bills and I really need to do something about it!

I’d like to know what you or Michael has to say about this. Today’s date is 2/23/2010

Sincerely,
Chris

Michael Brown April 30, 2010 at 10:53 pm

Chris,

The BBB is helpful to provide guidelines. They do have some good uses. However, I disagree with a certain tactic they incorporate and that’s actually why I refused to join them.

See, they solicit (yes solicit) businesses like mine and if you do not pay them $xxx per year they give you an F grade.

If you had a letter come to you in the mail saying that you MUST pay them or get a bad grade, what would you do?

Now if their defense they do say that the grade exists because the company never sent a response back. However, what grade are we taught in school is bad? An F.

So why would they give companies an F grade that do not give them money? Because, they want to make more money of course. In actuality I responded to them but I will not pay a fee for a service that works in this manner.

So for me it comes down to ethics and I feel that this tactic is pretty unethical on their part. I believe giving a company a NG or “not graded” grade would be better.

Ultimately, I do think some of what the BBB does is good and they have helped the FTC several time on research, etc. I also think they are a good place to start research but should not be the only place research takes place.

Jeffrey Liproco May 1, 2011 at 2:40 pm

This is absolutely true. I used to have a blind faith in the BBB, but over time I learned some very disturbing truths. The BBB is a business and it makes its money by having the companies it rates pay a fee. Nothing else needs to be known. You can simply imagine all of the flaws in a system such as this. If I had a business I would never be strong-armed into participating in such a system. Sadly, there is no BBB for the BBB! The FTC should have its own BBB funded by our taxes to protect us. Perhaps they do, but the BBB is not that entity. The BBB cannot be considered an objective watchdog site. It is a pay to play (thus, subjective) watchdog site without a bite.

Reply

Chris May 3, 2010 at 9:14 pm

Thank You for clarifying this 4 me Michael. It’s ashame the BBB can do that and get away with it. Well anyway, since my last post I have been taking the NBK course and I am learning a lot about affiliate marketing.RESEARCH IS THE KEY!

To anyone out there that has been thinking about trying out NBK. I highly recommend it. I believe the Internet is the future and 2 everyone out there my opinion is that Mr. Michael Brown is Very 4 real and is no scammer.

Hi,
I have read many, many review sites and I really like this one. I will have to say that I have been a student of affiliate marketing. I have bought many programs and would get started with them and quit because many of them would have either out of date information or poor support. I can honestly say that I have recently purchased the NB program and I am also a member of Wealthy Affiliate. These are both great programs but they differ greatly in the techniques that are taught. Both are very good programs and I am currently trying to make a go of it. I think I know what Georgia is referring to with WA. With WA, they offer what they call NicheQ. How this works is each month that you are in the program you qualify for a new niche that they have already researched, have several different templates, and keywords that are included with this niche. I think when I looked at the different niches about a week or so ago there were approximately 9 of them. You still have to purchase a domain to go along with the template. I do like this feature with WA as it allows me to pick something that has already been researched and able to get a site up and running fast. I am working on that right now. I also am working on NB. I only recently purchased this program but I can say on two different instances where I needed assistance I received help almost immediately. I did not wait more than a few hours before I had a response. You just cannot beat that kind of customer service. I think both programs are great, it just depends on what you are trying to accomplish. I have some pretty serious health issues so I have not been able to devote the kind of time I would like to be of better help. I am hoping to get things rolling real soon so I can provide better feedback on them. Miriamhigg

Kristopher June 6, 2010 at 1:47 pm

I’ve yet to order the Niche, however, can you let me know whether or not I would receive a hard copy provided I order? I use public transportation to get to and fro work and a lot of valuable reading could be done while en route to where ever. One reason I haven’t purchased yet is that all the great ideas I think I might have for a site, someone else has already thought of it. Any words for the discouraged, besides sticking with the idea and making it better? I’ve signed up for a couple programs already and I’m not liking any of them. PPC sounds like gambling to me. Does Micheal at least try to make his program not sound so hit or miss? And does Michael’s team have the patience for someone like me who tends to have a thousand questions? Sometimes my questions can be very good, however, wording them can sometimes cause a problem for me.

Hello,

Thank you for your great site – well done. I am also a person who has been trying to decide whether to join WA or NBK….and the fact that WA has just put up the price has really made the decision for me….I just can’t afford it! Also, most of the reviews I have read seem to suggest that NBK is a great programme for newbies. I am prepared to work hard, and I certainly don’t expect to get rich overnight – but can you honestly tell me that if I follow all the instructions given by Michael Brown and set things up correctly, that I could make a steady income? There are so many scams out there, and this doesn’t seem to be one, but I am still nervous! I would like to hear from someone on this page who has actually started to make some income (it doesn’t have to be huge). Keep up the good work!

Hi Miriam! So glad you found the site here and thank you for your visit and comment!

I totally understand about being nervous to start something due to the number of scams out there. Believe me, I stepped into my fair share of scams before finding guys like Michael (the creator of Niche Blitzkrieg) and Yaro Starak (Blog Mastermind). These are genuine guys that have made real money on the internet and care enough to share that info. I know they make money when they share the info – but they have done it so very thoroughly and they really are around to help those that participate – they don’t just make the money off you and run to go spend it!! I’ve gotten personal advice from both men and highly recommend using their programs.

Now, as far as answering your question: “but can you honestly tell me that if I follow all the instructions given by Michael Brown and set things up correctly, that I could make a steady income?” … that is a really hard one. I think this training at Niche Blitzkrieg is very very easy to follow and very realistic – no confusing jargon, no blanks that leave you wondering what to do. (If you do get lost, as I said, Michael or another person successfully using the program will ALWAYS step in to help if you ask.) The only *if-ee* factor is whether or not you can really buckle down and do the hard and sometimes tedious work that is needed. You might have to wait for your niches to really start performing. You’ll have days when you want to give up. If you push through and stay at it, I do really feel that anyone can make a decent income on these strategies. You might not be rich tomorrow or next week or even next year, but you can certainly be pulling in an income that will help you to breathe easier.

Does that help at all??

Hi, I am new to this. Do you have to pay for a new domain name for every new website or do you just add it to your hosting.

Hi there Tracy!! So glad you found the site! We were all new at one time, so I’m glad you posted the question – someone else is probably reading and wondering the same thing!

Yes, you do pay for a every new domain name that you want to set up. But, depending on your hosting package, you don’t pay any more money to your hosting service whether you have one domain name or 100.

For instance, my husband and I have several domain names. This one, HomeGrownMommy, is where it all started. We paid $10 (its an annual fee) for the name and started our hosting service for $10 per month. When we added http://www.NaturalHealthTutoring.com, we paid another $10 for the name, but our hosting package stayed at $10 per month.

I hope that makes sense! Do you have domain names that you’ve already purchased or are you thinking about starting up?

Thank you, HomeGrown Mommy, for that answer….I can understand why .you point out that I would need to knuckle down and actually do the work… I agree with you there and have no interest in “get rich quick” schemes. And I don’t particularly want to get rich, I just want some supplementary income, maybe leading to a complete income in a year or so, that’s all. This sounds possible, if your posts are anything to go by and I am prepared to wait. As long as I can see small amounts of income reasonably soon to reassure myself that it will work in the long term! Like anybody else, I think I would feel very dispirited if I put a lot of work in and made nothing at all….do you know where I am comiing from? But everybody in the programme, especially Michael Brown, sounds very sincere and I am going to go with my gut and join very soon. Thank you again for all the wonderful information on your page. I am posting from Ireland, but I wish you and all your fellow Americans a happy 4th of July weekend. Kind regards, Miriam

I am honored to have a guest from so far away! I have always wanted to visit Ireland – I love to travel and have heard that it is an especially beautiful land!

I definitely understand being cautious and worrying about putting a whole bunch of work in and getting nothing in return. This very blog that you are visiting has been a source of satisfaction and of discouragement throughout the time I have worked on it – I supposed that is like anything that you really put your heart into! I have worked for hours on certain articles, thinking for sure I’d be able to really help someone with the info – and then, I would get absolutely no visits on it! Sort of feels like talking to an empty room.

But, you pick yourself up by your bootstraps and keep on going. I actually took quite a bit of time away from the blog because I felt like it wasn’t working but now I’m back to hitting it hard again. Somehow, you have to keep finding that determination and strength to go on a little further.

Of course, this blog isn’t exactly like what you will build once you purchase Niche Blitzkrieg, but the work behind it is the same. Give yourself time to learn, time to make mistakes and you’ll be amazed at what you can accomplish. Plus, Michael is a GREAT teacher and mentor. Of all the people I’ve tried to learn from, he is definitely one of the most attentive, always ready to share the info that you need to keep on going.

And, the forum really is lively. I really hate to get on board with a training program, post a question to the forum, only to find that same empty room feeling. there are several successful and knowledgeable mentors ready to answer questions very quickly and many many times, Michael himself answers the questions. I really like that part.

This sounds very interesting, especially given as it’s suitable for people with no experience in Internet Marketing such as myself.

I have a question. What about if you don’t have any knowledge about any particular subject which people can’t find elsewhere?

Once you’ve decided on a particular niche to setup a website, is it possible to just research the info from elsewhere on the web then implement it into your website or would this be considered copyright.

For instance, when your husband setup his website about scuba diving which he doesn’t know much about, did he write the content for the site himself.

Hi there,

I live in the UK and I am a massive sceptic on the subject of making money online, whether it is, or is not actually possible, as a result I believe I may have fell into a scam myself.

I joined up with My Home Wealth System, admittedly I didnt have to make a huge investment and I figured that as the investment was so low, I wouldnt miss the money if it was lost, however I followed all their steps and although the Google adwords seems to have been set up correctly i’m not sure its live, but yet my website does seem to be atracting visitors, but no sales, what it has attracted is people allegedly from Scott Davenport’s office saying they can hand-hold me through the process and GUARANTEE that I start making money, although this process will of course require investment on my part, they recommended at least $1100 US Dollars.

Now due to being a sceptic theres no way I was going to agree to that, but i’m broke anyway, hence the need to research such systems, but since those phone calls were made I keep finding all sorts of bad reviews about the scheme and this Scott Davenport guy, and am not sure he even exists, how can I prove this Niche Blitzkreig thing isnt gonna be the same sort of story?

Would really appreciate some advice.

Regards

Dean

Hi I have been reading your review and comments, and I went and checked out the BBB score for the NB and found they have an F rating. Why would that be if this is a legit opportunity? Thanks.

Hman January 12, 2011 at 5:14 pm

Just to make things clear: all you need to rock n roll is 2 things:
1) domain name
2) hosting

Is that it? I read in some other places that there are some very useful tools that can be used but might cost quite some money. I’m a college student. I can afford to buy the NB program and pay monthly and yearly for both the domain name(s) and hosting (that’s if I don’t blow the money I’ve worked really hard to save up so far) but if there are any other expenses that are mandatory to succeed in making money then I don’t think this would be my cup of tea. Would you recommend that I go for it?

Got so caught up with the idea of making money from home I forgot to thank you for your amazing article. Very simple and straightforward, didn’t even have to grab a dictionary! Thank you very much Home Grown Mommy!

Hi, I have niche blitzkrieg too but haven’t gotten around to doing much yet. I was wondering how much success you have had with, if any. I mean in the category of $ earnings.

Michael Brown February 24, 2011 at 2:03 pm

Vickie,

I think the reply I gave Chris above would be very helpful to you regarding the BBB. We are actually not registered with them and because I refused to join and pay them – they drop the F score on us. Whether we agree with the tactic or not… that is the way they operate.

I think the BBB is a good company that has helped the FTC several times but the BB should never be the place to start and stop your research.

Thanks for your interest!

Michael Brown February 24, 2011 at 2:05 pm

Hman,

That is correct. You only need a domain and hosting to get started. I show you how to get both if you don’t have either. Hosting is $10/month for unlimited domains and domains are about $10/yr each.

So essentially you can run this entire business on about $10/month and that is what I did for my entire first year.

Thanks.

Hi, I have read all the comments shown on the site but the questions Anton posted on February 24, 2010 at 12:48 am still seems unanswered. Can any one using NB already answer the questions what Anton had raised? “HOW DO THEY PAY AND HOW MUCH DO THEY PAY AND WHEN THEY PAY DOES IT GO DIRECTLY TO DIRECT DEPOSIT OR HOW?”

The “How much do they pay” query have been answered already but the how it is done remains to be answered. I recently just learned about affiliate marketing and want to try it so it is much appreciated if my query is attented to. Thanks.

Louie,
Thanks for stopping by. We have multiple streams of income with our sites. Most affiliate networks will have a payment threshold in place which is usually $50 or $100. Once you earn enough commissions and cross that threshold, you get paid. Most of the time we get checks in the mail, some networks pay with direct deposit or through PayPal. Some smaller networks pay you through PayPal after each sale you bring them, no matter what the amount.
Adsense only pays monthly. So if you don’t reach their threshold at the end of the month you’ll have to wait for another month to get paid.
So it depends on the network and how fast you can reach the payment threshold.
I hope this answers your question, and good luck on your affiliate marketing career!

Hi everyone. I have also tried a few products and have made zero money up to now. I must admit it can also be my fault not using the products to their full advantage. However i’ve known about affiliate marketing for some time now and I want to make this a success.

I live in South Africa and it’s only been a couple of months since paypal was launched here. So more and more opportunities are opening up. I want to try Niche Blitzkrieg. I’ve read many reviews and all seem positive.

Thank you all for your comments and for a site like this. I will
keep you up to date – If I’m making money and how much.

I bought the niche program about a week ago, although the training is great but i am still confused since Michael does not fully finish up with some of the training. He just give you a head start of how to do some of the stuff, then promised he will touch up on them later on and never did. That’s what got me to be so confused. I am still interested in continuing with the program, but it’s not getting any easier. I was wondering if Michael has a personal coach to guide you step by step how build a website. Thing would be a lot more easier if you have someone to go through the training with you, just in case you get confused as it happened to be my case.

NBK is a very good program and loaded with very good information. Unfortunately it doesn’t cover all the details on building wordpress sites. If he did, the program would be much larger than what it is.
The good news is that there are countless resources and tutorials on the web on how to build a wordpress site. Also the forum on Niche Blitzkrieg is very helpful in getting your questions answered. I hope this answers your question and good luck to your journey.

Alix,

Just to give you a heads up. Last week I res-hot 90% of the videos in a new beautiful format. I also upgraded the lessons to cover more than just making money inside the course. I now cover some of the more cosmetic things as well. :)

Feedback has been through the roof and it as already extremely high before that.

Sarina, You can use the product in India as well. :)
