We’ve been taking a look at Niche Blitzkrieg these past few days. We’ve offered a preview up to this point, but here is our full review after spending a few days examining the program.
I’ll be honest. I rarely come across a program that I’m excited to try. It’s true. Most of the time, I dread reviewing new programs, seeing as a lot of requests we receive are the same program just masked as something else. But this time it’s different. I found myself excited to try the Niche Blitzkrieg program. I think we may have finally found something that will work for everybody.
What is the Niche Blitzkrieg System?
The Niche Blitzkrieg system was developed by Michael Brown, a veteran on teaching others how to make money online. The focal point behind Niche Blitzkrieg is that you will be researching popular trends and niches in the world today and then building a website to cater to this trend or niche. In doing so, you will attract visitors from search engines and then make money through advertisements placed on your website.
Does the idea of creating websites scare you? I know a lot of you are probably thinking that there’s no way in hell you could ever setup your very own website. Well, knock it off. The truth is that creating a website these days is very, very easy. In fact, with the Niche Blitzkrieg system, all of the hard work will automatically be generated for you. If you can manage to type on a keyboard, you’re more than capable of running your own website. Honest.
This program is somewhat newbie friendly. Just “somewhat?” Well, the process of doing keyword research and setting up your sites is explained in layman’s terms, and Michael uses pictures and videos to show you, step-by-step, what you need to do.
It’s only “somewhat” newbie friendly because there are some gaps in the instruction. Someone who is brand new to WordPress and plug-ins will struggle a bit. That’s not to say newbies can’t do it. They most certainly can. But you’ll need to have some stubbornness and persistence to get yourself through the gaps. The Forum looks like a good source of help, though, and Michael is quick to answer questions.
The best part of the program is that positive results are easily duplicated. Once you create your first profitable website, you’ll be able to take the techniques used and repeat them as many times as you possibly can. You’ll find yourself with multiple streams of income that continue to earn money for you long after they’ve been created.
My personal involvement with the program has been great thus far. I’ve been conducting my own niche research these past few days and do have quite a few ideas on where to take them. Sorry, I can’t share them as they are my personal ideas and I don’t want you guys to take the credit for my hard work. I should have a few websites up and running fairly soon though. I suspect my investment into the program and money spent ordering domain names will be made back within less than a month.
We use a lot of similar techniques outlined in Niche Blitzkrieg to make money each month with I’ve Tried That. Seeing as these techniques are proven to work and I’ve seen it happen with my own two eyes on a daily basis, I feel confident in highly recommending the Niche Blitzkrieg program.
Niche Research Commando
The Niche Research Commando is a tool that you can add on to the program at an extra cost. I’ve been using the tool myself over these past couple of days and it has already saved me from spending countless hours on niche research.
The program allows you to view the top ten results in Google for the niche keyword of your choice. These results provide you with valuable information like how the top ten sites use their keywords, how many backlinks a website has, the pagerank of the website and the overall competition you would face if you choose to build a website in this niche. This tool is extremely beneficial to beginners and is very easy to use. Of course, you don’t need to buy the program, but you will end up spending 20 to 30 minutes on a task that takes this program 20 to 30 seconds.
What I Didn’t Like
[Updated on March 23rd, 2009] When I first reviewed Niche Blitzkrieg, I felt that the system was starting to become outdated and skipped over a few essential parts to running a domain. I expressed my concerns to owner Michael Brown and he assured me that an update was coming. Now, we’ve reviewed a lot of programs in the past, and generally the program owners have been cold and unresponsive. Not only did Michael respond to my concerns, but he promised action and boy did he pull through.
My biggest concern was that the system didn’t go in-depth on how to actually get a site up and running. This alone could be enough to scare off any new members as the thought of setting up a domain can be particularly scare your first time around. Well, Michael Brown not only updated the guide used in the system, but has provided full screencasts on how to setup your websites. His teaching is flawless and you will not encounter any issues when following along with his video guides.
Aside from that issue, the rest of the system has been fully updated as well. At this point, I actually can’t find a single thing to complain about, which is a first here at I’ve Tried That.
The Niche Blitzkrieg Bottom Line
Bottom line: if you want to learn a method that will allow you to create multiple streams of income online that continually work for you and make you money, Niche Blitzkrieg is the program to join. It really is a great program and I highly recommend it.

Great info! Thank you, if I am successful at this, I will be sure to thank you!
Is BANS or this Niche Blitzkrieg better in terms of work vs. money earned? What is more worthy of my time?
Will-
To be honest, Niche Blitzkrieg will be a better investment. It’s more geared towards beginner’s and you’ll start seeing income quicker than you would with BANS.
Well I am glad that this is something that you highly recommend. I have an open mind and am willing to try new things (think outside the box) I now just have to convince the wife. lol Any suggestions?
So what do you see yourself earning in a month or so? even if it is 50-100 bucks that is great just shows that it works right?
Jason
It seems as you do research on Blitzkrieg and learn about affiliate marketing, one review leads to another affiliate marketer that was on their website and so on. It seems that there is no way to actually tell if these systems work or not. It seems like a vicious circle of support with the same 10-15 people coming up on google searches. They support it and give a good review which leads to their link to have you buy that product on their website. A lot of the people that are “supposedly” reveiwing this product are selling that product and also support similar e-books that you do too. How do you know what is real. Is any money being made here or do all of you just refer eachother to the others website to hopefully have someone buy something from InyourPJ’s, Blitzkrieg, Kevin Riley, John Mann, workathometruth.com, etc, etc
That’s a great question, Frank. Let me try to answer it.
You’re absolutely right that anytime you search for reviews of something, you get a lot of results that turn out to be affiliate marketers. Often, they don’t do real reviews at all. They look for products that sell well and that have a high commission attached and promote them with fake reviews. See our Watchdog series for more discussion of this problem.
When we check out a product or program that we like, we sign up for its affiliate program. That way, yes, we make a commission on each sale. The difference is that we won’t promote a product or program in which we don’t believe and haven’t had a close look at. We have turned down countless opportunities to promote products and make a lot of money because they did not meet our standards. You have no way of knowing that’s true, of course, unless you stick around long enough to let us earn your trust.
Thanks for your comment.
I have had the same problem Frank. I noticed that same thing about good reviews leading to other reviews and programs leading to other programs to rid you of your hard earned cash.
Since I have been scammed once (partnerwithpaul.com) I was skeptical about trying this Niche Blitzkrieg system, but so far the system makes sense to me since I used to make money this way on a fan Web site many years ago. I just started the program, but I hope to be successful in it.
Something I’m not able to see in this blog or in Niche Blitzkrieg site: is this a “set and forget” type of program or will require you to create and add content periodically in order to maintain your Google position?
[...] I’m the manager for Michael Brown’s affiliate program and I wrote Niche Research Commando, a piece of software to automate some manual research tasks he had in his Niche Blitzkrieg program. Read Steve’s review of Niche Blitzkrieg here. [...]

Billy,
What I’d say about Niche Blitzkrieg is that there will be long gaps of time in which you won’t have to update your website or do additional work to maintain position – but that won’t be true for every NB website – it depends on the niche.
If you are looking for a true set-and-forget system you are going to be looking for a long, long time…because “set and forget” is a myth…the best you can hope for is to set and “forget for some period of time”.
My business partner and I have systems where use automated tools where we can set up 20 blogs in 20 minutes, can upload REAL content to all of them and build a lot of backlinks automatically – we spent over a year working it all out, but even THAT isn’t set and forget FOREVER.
It seems that thanks to your review, Michael Brown is updating his lessons. The lessons are getting even better.
Steve,
I purchased Niche Blitzkrieg about a month ago and worked very hard to get my first site up. This site is positioned highly in Google searches for my keyword but performs poorly when it comes to earnings. In communicating back and forth with both Michael Brown and Paul from workathometruth I came to learn that only a percentage of these sites turn out to be money makers. Paul told me to plan on 1-in-10 being a success. I’m curious to know if you have seen similar results.
Jared,
That is sad to read. I have put much time, money and effort and plan to put even more time into it. If this is not successful, then I give up with Work At Home jobs that I find on the Internet and I am going to go to my plan B. Develop software and then sell it on the Internet the old fashioned way.
Will,
I didn’t post that comment to discourage anyone but rather to try to help set realistic expectations. Michael and Paul have a lot of success with the Niche Blitzkrieg method. Michael’s successful sites make from $30-$1,000 per month. If you stick with it long enough to get a good group of successful sites then you could have a tidy cash flow each month.
Will,
I would say a 1-10 ratio would be highly incorrect. You might not see a lot in the beginning but once you have a few small sites under your belt you will. As for my sites everyone of them has produced a lot more than I’ve put in. But, I agree with you 100% on telling someone to just stick at it and they’ll see a steady cash flow.
Jared,
I don’t think Will was telling anyone that they are doomed to fail…lol The fact is that with all these B.S. scams and false advertisements out there people have this “unreal” belief that millionaires start with $0 and in 2 weeks are loaded by working on the Internet.
It takes time and practice. When you don’t have a lot of experience yet making fast, big money isn’t going to happen just like that. The more knowledge you gain and the more practice you put in, the more you’ll earn.
Hope that helps anyone looking to really make money online. Niche Blitzkrieg is a highly recommended program for a reason – it’s realistic and not some made up fairy tale that some companies want you to believe that there product is.
Okay, I’m a little confused with this system. Do you have to have a certain product to create websites for or do you pick random subjects and hope it works out? I don’t want to buy the system and realize then that I can’t use it.
Allex-
You do have software that creates websites for you, yes. You don’t have to learn how to code HTML or anything, but you do have to pick a subject and write content about it. That part is all you.
Can you tell me how much the Niche Research Commando software costs? Do you think that it really is a good investment vs not having it? Does it come with a money back guarantee like the program itself ?
Also, how long does it take timewise to learn the lessons/view the video before you start setting up your website?
Lisa, I have been working with this program and I must say that Research Commando is a great piece of software. It eliminates hours of your time (if new to this sort of thing)well worth the investment The going price is $37.00 at the following web site.
http://www.theprofithq.com/cmd.php?af=952496&u=www.niche-research-commando.com/
Jason
P.S. If I broke any rules by posting a link I apologize ahead of time.
@ Lisa I forgot to answer your question about the lessons. It really depends on how much time you invest into watching the videos. You could sit down and watch them all or watch several everyday until finished really, it is up to you.
Jason
has any one tried the Mathew S. Robar
740-707-6390
Endless Wealth Solutions? i just ordered it yesterday i am hoping it is not a scam.
My question is do you already have to have a product you are trying to market. I keep hearing that it is a marketing system but they are not talking about a product or leads to products. If you do not have a product to market, how can you make money from the information.
@monique, No you do not need a product to promote or sell. The system shows you how to promote things that are already available to the consumer. For example, someone has a product that they are selling (something on amazon) well, you promote that something and when an interested buyer purchases that something, amazon pays you a commission. So the information in this program guides you through these steps. check out the sales page again most if not all of your questions should be answered if not post again and I will respond if someone else doesn’t respond first.
My question is.. do I need to alrealy have a website with Niche Blitzkrieg? How long should I expect to make money from this program?
Steve, It sounds like Niche Blitzkrieg teaches a person to do, with having multiple blogs, what Squidoo.com does automatically with Adsense and marketing Amazon.com products, etc… Am I close on this one? Or way off? I am somewhat internet savvy. Except for Squidoo users having an impersonal URL address, I wonder if people are doing just as well income-wise using that venue? Do you know? I really want to earn an income online from home, and yet I’m not out to find my fortune, you know? What sets Niche Blitzkrieg apart from the likes of Squidoo? Thanks!
I ordered in your PJ’S about a week ago but now I have asked for my money back. The information in that e book was great information if what you are looking for is ideas on how to work from home. If you’re looking for resources and a guide to a real work at home job well that is not what the program offers so do not waste her time. well the fault might be with me the page does say a work at home job but the misunderstanding accord when I assumed it was going to give me actually lead. All the book has is ideas of jobs and ways to go about etting them.
so i am about to take part of the niche journey and hope it works out, i am fully interested in making extra money and dont believe in the get rich quick jobs…they never work for the buyer just for the already rich who are selling it. I will re-respond after i have tried the program. I love finding out the information on whats a scam and whats not even though i usually just end up wasting hard to come by money atleast i mite be able to help someone els not waste theirs.
Is there anyone who actually has a solid ’success’ story with this program who can talk about how long it took them, what the obstacles were, how they overcame them, and how satisfied they are at this point (by success I simply mean making more money than they invested…doesn’t have to be thousands of extra dollars…)
I’m considering getting into affiliate marketing and I’ve read good reviews about Niche Blitzkrieg, both on here and other websites. But, honestly, is it easy for a complete novice to pick up and use quickly? I am internet savvy but I just completely understood what affiliate marketing even is just a few minutes ago. I have the time, desire, and brain-power to put into it, but I wouldn’t want to fork over a large chunk of change for the program when I’m already having a hard time making ends meet, just to find out that it’s too difficult to understand. The no-questions refund policy is reassuring, but I’m still skeptical.
Brad, I guess it depends on what you mean by “quickly.” Like any new skill, it will take some time to put into practice the strategies you’ll learn. You’ll also need to be able to invest a little more (to purchase a domain and hosting). The system can really run on autopilot, but getting it to that point will require time and effort (including brain power expended to learn new things, like how to run your WordPress blog).
However, there is some good news. Steve is offering to set up your blog for you. See this post. His offer is a good way to minimize the difficulties a novice would face.
Thanks for your quick reply Joe.
By “quickly” I didn’t mean “make $400 the first day,” but as far as putting the instructions into action, would I have to do further research on my own, or is it a straightforward “go-here-and-do-this” process?
I might be mistaken, but I thought I read a post here implying that blogs weren’t really the way to go? I will consider the offer though.
Do programs such as Niche Blitzkrieg all require a web site host for about $100.00 per year?
Steve: the short answer is Yes. The NB method teaches you to register your own unique domain name where you’ll run a WordPress blog, and then pay for hosting. You could theoretically use the NB method with free Blogger blogs, which wouldn’t charge you for hosting. But search engine results are not as good.
Steve, I should also add that I don’t know if “all” programs like it require this or encourage this method. Wealthy Affiliate University, for example, also teaches about free ways to make money online without owning your own hosted Web site. Read one of our posts about it here.
Hi, I’m very interested in the Niche Blitzkrieg system, but have also read about another of his programs called Affiliate Money Revolution. Could you give me a brief rundown on the difference between the two? Is it wise to start with the Niche Blitzkrieg then move on to the next, or are they two totally different systems? Thanks heaps
@jo
Hey I am a proud owner of AMR (affiliate money revolution) and these are the main differences between the two. 1) Do you enjoy reading step-by-step instruction, or a direct to the point step-by-step video tutorial all the way through? NB you are going to be reading a lot, AMR all video (it is great). 2) although what is taught is the same, there is further detail into the realm of e-mail marketing in AMR than there is in NB. Both amazing products by an amazing person hope that answered your question!
Jason Goode
Thanks for your reply Jason. I definitely like the idea of videos as opposed to alot of reading… very much the visual learner. I’ve been on this ‘learn to earn an income online’ train for nearly a year now and can honestly say I have purchased many a system that really hasn’t suited me or hasn’t performed – one way or another, I’m still no closer to earning that income than I was then. Fortunately I put it all down to a learning curve and slowly but surely I’m narrowing down what I feel comfortable and confident with. I honestly think that has alot to do with how successful someone will be – finding a system to follow that suits their strengths. This is definitely one of two products that I am looking at with interest: the other is Wordpress Goldmine. Any experience with this system? It would be great to hear opinions from anyone who has used both…? Cheers
Hey jo,
I have not used wordpress goldmine but I must say that AMR is wrapped around wordpress. Michael goes through the wordpress system in detail and if more detail is needed all you have to do is ask in the forum and he or John Mann (his program manager) will answer your questions directly.
Have a great monday!
Jason
Hi I have been on the look out for ways to make money on line a long time.Ii would def say affiliate money revolution is fantastic. but equally so is wordpressgoldmine is great as well. the difference here is that he gives you step by step in more detail on things each month feb wordpress march articlemarketing including how to do cpa marketing. its excellent. Another person to check out is potpiegirl she gives a lot of step by step on everything to do with affiliate marketing for a new person that does not understand. she takes you by the hand and it all free. she has products you can buy too later as you make money that are excellent. This is where i started then affiliatemoneyrevolution then wordpress goldmine. that is all you would need really. hope that help anyone new.
Does NB rely only on Google Adsense to make money or are there other sources of income too?
I forgot to ask if anyone had experience of the Build a Niche Store (BANS) programme?
Hi Heather in answer to your question it depends on how you want to monetize your wordpress blog. yes you can put adsense on . but if you go to http://www.worpressdirect.com this makes the process of building wordpress blogs much easier and you can get up to three free sites you can do this initially until you get the idea of wordpress. I think personally this is easier for a beginner. you might want to sign up for the 30 day challenge at http://www.thirtydaychallenge.com which teaches new folk to internet marketing how to do it and its free. It starts in 2 days time. just register and you will be notifed in your email. this helped me a lot when i signed up a couple of years ago. hope that helps
Hello to everyone on this blog and thank you to all for your valuable comments!
I am searching for a week’s home base business to start it and have no experience with it whatsoever…
My question is… if I’ll try ‘AMR’ or ‘Niche Blitzkrieg System’ say tomorrow as a full time job, so how long does it take to set system works and to earn first $1.00? Is it one hour, a week or any tricks I need to know? How long does it take to get experience of full time job working online to make $3 to $5g/monthly? Do I need have special talent, skills?
Your response will be greatly appreciated.
Alec.
Hi Alex , In answer to your question their is no guarantees that you will make any money . You really need to learn some skills first to help you understand what your doing . I f you don,t learn those skills you will fail. in my experience some sites have made nothing and some have. If i was you i would sign up for the thirtydaychallenge.com this is in preseason you will learn a lot form them and it will give you the skills to move forward to use Afiiliate money revolution which I think is better by the way as it shows you in video as well as the written side. Here is the link you can sign up for free to get the first two modules to see if its for you. http://www.affiliatemoneyrevolution.net/go/ivetriedthat Another one to learn from is kevin riley as everything he sells makes it so easy for a beginner as he gives you step by step in all that he sells. Just DO A GOOGLE SEARCH and sign up for his newsletter. Also here is a link to Micheal s browns blog their is a lot of free videos etc in his archives that you will find great. he is the guy that made Afilliatemoneyrevolution. here is the link.
http://michaelsbrown.com/free-affiliate-money-revolution-trial-helps-teach-affiliate-marketing-for-newer-marketers/ Hope that helps.
Hi Fiona,
I appreciated for your comments and suggestions and will try to follow it. At any case, you mentioned that you have business online for years; are you satisfied with your living or just good enough? Why I am trying to get to the point is because I have never talked to people who are already there and I have to change my career. In other words I do have a risk so sorry for my interest…
Hi Alex I learnt form chris farrell you can sign up for his newsletter from here
http://www.successgrenade.com/ he is a great guy and so genuine he also has a membership site you can try for 1 dollar thats where i started to learn everything i needed. here is the link. http://www.chrisfarrellmembership.com/ Yes it is profitable to make money on line but not made enough yet to give up my job but i,m getting their. i try to help put people in the right direction. i was about to give up until i found this site and kevin riley they are good to learn from. im not saying the others are not any good its just they were too advanced for me to begin with. hope that helps.
Hey Fiona,
Good enough and thanks a lot for all your experience you share with me and other people and I think if we have more people like you life would be much brighter.
keep in touch…oh, by the way, what are you doing? your job you don’t want to give up yet?
see ya.
So… are there any people besides Joe and Michael that have used the program and have found success, and how much work and hours they put into it and how much experiencegoing into it. I think most people are looking for a way to gauge exactly how good the program is and having someone who just signed up give feedback isn’t good enough. If there is anyone that has feedback on it from using it and would like to share some useful details that aren’t giving away too much secrets from the program i think that would be the best for everyone. Thanks
Was reading the comments on Niche Blitzkrieg and wonder if any one had a book(s) to recommend to us Newbies to fill in the gaps?
I am very interested in Niche Blitzkrieg, but I have no experience with Anthing like it. I have my username and password registered, but don’t know what to do next. I am nervous and don’t know what I do now. If you could walk me through the steps to get to the end, I would greatlully appreciate it.
Could you walk me through the steps to continue?
My phone is 605-879-2416
judynic@gwtc.net
Thank you ever so much!
Ed,
The gaps are filled. If you read through their review they simply mention at first there seemed like their were gaps in the learning. They go on to say that the gaps have been filled and corrected.
Judy,
I think we’ve traded emails a few times now. Glad to have you into the program
I would take your phone number out of your post though so you don’t get a bunch of unwanted calls.

Hi, I just stumbled on to the whole concept of making money online tonight and I ran into this Blitz system which is getting worthy praise(it appears). But I had a few questions for whoever wishes to answer.
I am quite business savvy-pursuing my MBA-this all sounds like a zero-sum game. If someone gets a commission, someone else is not. If this is so and I have discovered a secret for getting commissions over you, then why would I tell you my secret? You would just compete the profits away. So if Mr. Brown or whoever else knows secrets, is it not more lucrative to keep implementing them secretly instead of selling his secrets for XX amount of dollars? It’s the same like in the futures or Forex markets. If someone has a system they aren’t going to tell you, why would they?
I believe it’s possible to make money off of this stuff, but I have to raise a flag and wonder why someone truly would give secrets out to a lucrative live at home comfortably live your dream life type of zero-sum business.
Sorry this is long, just curious. Thank you in advance.
@Victor: A zero-sum game only applies to a closed system. In other words, if there were three products to be sold online, true, it would not make sense for Niche Blitzkrieg to teach people how to sell them. But there are limitless products and near-limitless customers.
Hi. I am a 22 year old fresh out of college with a solid sales job. I am looking to learn about making money online in order to establish some form of supplemental income. I would be devoting one to two hours a day to the project as well as a few (3-5) hours every weekend. Given my situation, would you more strongly recommend niche blitzkrieg or WAU? Thanks
Due to some stupid decisions in my youth, I was blocked from receiving payments of any sort by Amazon (in other words, my Amazon seller account was shut down). We all make mistakes….
Anyways, I am wondering if this severely impedes my ability to participate in any of these programs. Can you run your websites just as well relying solely on Google Adsense and some of the other affiliate partners?
This is Will again, I have not made any money using this system after starting many months ago. I simply do not have enough visitors to my Web sites.
Will,
This is Michael Brown here creator of Niche Blitzkrieg. I just saw your post and thought I would respond. You’ve narrowed down the problem – you’re not getting enough visitors to your website.
So, what have you been doing to get visitors? Have you tried? Have you worked on the additional ways to get traffic as suggested in the course? Have you asked anyone for help in the forum?
Basically what I am getting at is that the reason you haven’t made money or harbored traffic isn’t the fault of the system. Get back in the forum with us and ASK! That’s what we’re here for. We are here to help other people succeed but if we don’t know that you need help – we can’t help you.
I have never had a time where I had a website that I haven’t been able to generate traffic or sales to and from a site using the Niche Blitzkrieg methods. Use the step by step methods in the course and you should be getting traffic. If you’re not chances are you’re not using the methods described or you’re doing very little and expecting a miracle to happen.
So come into our forum and simply ask, show us your site and we will help you. Again, that’s what we’re here for.
Zak,
No, not having access to Amazon will not affect you. We show you dozens of ways to get sales on the inside.
-Michael
Just being curious, if someone does not want their consumers “jumping the gun” and assuming this is another “scam”, wouldn’t it be highly recommended to file themselves and become “Better Business Bureau Accredited”? I’d love to try this product out but unfortunately I’m still skeptical considering it seems a good amount of money needs to be invested first.
Krista, you’re right to be skeptical about anything offered online. However, I don’t think the BBB is the answer. It does some good work, but to be BBB accredited merely means that a business has paid a licensing fee to BBB.
As for Niche Blitzkrieg, you can now try it out for 7 days for $4.95. If you cancel before the seventh day, you’ll may nothing more. If you like it and want to keep your membership active, your card will be billed the full $77. Click here to check it out.
I’m curious about the cost. $4.95 for 7 days and then $77 after that. I think I saw something about $100 for hosting. Is that right? Are there any more charges?
No there are no other fees or charges throughout the course there will be suggestions given or recomendations given for product or services that can make things easier but they are just that suggestions or recomendations. Now hosting is very important and it will cost around 9-10 bucks a month. But if at the beginning that is to much do not worry michael talked about ways to do what he is teaching without hosting. Just so you know domain names are what you are hosting and those can cost 1-10 bucks a year. Domain names are the website names. But again Michael shows you ways to work around that making it completely free. Hope that helps if you have any more questions click on my name and leave me a comment on my website. (this site is one that I have been recently putting together using niche blitzkreig)
