Be where the money is
I'm going to tell you some secrets about making money that you probably already know, but possibly forget every single day. You'll also learn the truth about easy money (don't worry, it's good news):
- If you really want an online money making business, you MUST find a system that gives you a step-by-step way to learn the basics of making money online AND also has the potential for you to see SOME results relatively quickly.
- You should become a master of "being where the money is". This means that you have a systematic way to determine if there is money in a market AND if YOU can possibly make money in that market.
- Focus on where the easy money is first. Just like in other areas of life (sports for example) – there are EASY places to win and there are HARD places. You may be stunned at how many places there are to pick up easy money…IF you know some very basic principles of making money online.
- Be where the money is! This may be the biggest secret about making money that when you "get it" it is SO obvious. In fact for many people it's the turning point in their ability to make money almost "at will". It means you should have a quick and easy way to look for multiple profitable markets. You want a way to potentially "catch the money" in various markets. When you learn to do that effectively you make your income much more stable.
There's one "final secret" which I'll reveal after explaining more about the first four (it will make much more sense after you read this other information).
How to learn the basics of making money online
I would consider the initial fundamentals someone should learn to be the following:
- Keyword research to identify potential niches to go into.
- Marketplace analysis to try to find the easiest ways to enter the niche. I can't go into all the details here, but typically this will involve what's known as "backlink analysis" (it's actually surprisingly easy in most markets).
- Profitability potential to confirm that there are enough people spending money in the niche to make it worth while.
- Laying out a plan for conquering a niche.
Notes:
- "Keyword research" means figuring out what people are typing into the search engines.
- A "niche" is just a small part of a much larger market. I.e. a large market might be "pet supplies". A niche market within the "pet supplies" market might be "parakeet food".
I see so many newcomers getting completely overwhelmed by trying to learn too many things at once. You do NOT have to. In fact, if you'd focus on the most basic principles of making money online and practice those money making principles using a system that allows you to run through the above-mentioned four steps quickly, not only will you have a much better chance of actually making money, but you are setting yourself to learn many more money making techniques much more easily.
This is why I try my best to steer people towards the Niche Blitzkrieg money making system. I really can't think of a better system for someone to start with.
Why?
Because Niche Blitzkrieg teaches you the very basics you need to know to start making money online with an online business.
Niche Blitzkrieg TEACHES you how to be a business owner with multiple websites and how to generate profits from them in a systematic repeatable way.
Niche Blitzkrieg teaches you how to set up blogs (types of websites) in multiple niche markets and get free search engine traffic (visitors) to the blogs. It also teaches you:
- How to determine if people are spending money in the market
- A systematic way to determine how hard it will be to get traffic (visitors to your blog) in the market.
- How to find products to sell for other companies as an affiliate in order to generate commissions (you aren't involved in handling the ordering or delivery of the product at all).
- How to run advertising on your blogs.
Best of all, Niche Blitzkrieg shows you a very simple way to quickly and easily mass produce these profitable tiny niche sites. For many people that will be a huge relief.
What is a niche market?
A niche market would be something like "18 inch doll clothing". It would NOT be something like "doll clothing"…instead it would be a specialty area of doll clothing like "18 inch doll clothing".
In a nutshell, a niche market is a market where people want to spend money on something, but have few choices about where to spend that money. Niche Blitzkrieg shows you an easy way to help those people and make money by doing it.
The number of possible niches is enormous
As you might imagine the number of possible niches is enormous, which means there are an enormous amount of places waiting for you to stick your "money bucket" (blog) into.
You make money from the blogs either by selling other people's products and earning commissions or from running advertising on the blogs (you don't have to sell the advertising, there are a lot of systems that will automatically run advertising on your blogs).
The advantage of Niche Blitzkrieg is that it's a more intensive, well-rounded education on how to run profitable blogs. Once you gain the skills covered in Niche Blitzkrieg it really opens up a LOT more potential for you.
Another BIG advantage of Niche Blitzkrieg is that it allows you to be in multiple market places so that your NOT dependent on people spending money in ONE particular area, because as we all know certain markets can shrivel up and die.
It's like putting out money-buckets in multiple markets so that even if people slow down their spending in one market, you still have the chance to continue to catch income streams from other markets you've put your money-buckets (blogs in this case) in.
The "final secret" to making money online
You must be able to ask questions if you get stuck in order to keep moving towards your income goals. Whatever money making system you follow you MUST have a place to ask questions where everything is completely focused on THAT system.
That may be the biggest thing that separates Niche Blitzkrieg from most other programs out there. For one ridiculously low one-time fee you get access to both a systematic system for making money online AND an amazing forum where people actually care if you succeed.
I've worked out a special deal where you can get the complete system for only $47 instead of the normal $77. This is ONLY available to visitors of the WorkAtHomeTruth site.

Hi, Yes you have described just the scenario I find myself in. Wanting to earn money online, subscribing to this magic system or that one. Usually these systems are rubbishing others, and yet seem to be doing the same thing as all the others anyway; to the point where I just have no faith, or confidence, to even start. Am completely confused and overloaded with information. Would be interested in subscribing to yours. Perhaps after I get back from a weeks break. Does your Niche Blitzkreig really work, will it work for me? All systems seem to have a disclaimer that puts me right off, I suppose your one has a disclaimer as well? I have a URL, but no website yet!!!!!!!!
12:56 pm
Frank, Niche Blitzkrieg is NOT a magic system. It is a system based on the most basic principles of making money online. If you are looking for a system where you do no work and wake up with money in your bank account, this is NOT the system for you.
The reason why most systems have earnings disclaimers is because that they are legally required to do so. In fact if they DON'T have a disclaimer, you should be worried, because that means that the person doesn't known enough to use one.
3:56 pm
Frank,
A site that doesn't include a disclaimer is a red flag that either they do not know they need one or that they are intentionally leaving it off.
Either way is not good for a consumer.
Here's why. A company that doesn't know they need a disclaimer probably doesn't know the needs of a consumer. They are also prime targets for lawsuits and other legal issues.
The other option – that they intentionally left it off could be a shady company looking to trick it's buyers.
Either way is not a good sign. A disclaimer has to state legal subjects which everyone SHOULD know but some don't. Things like there are no guarantees you'll make money etc are simply staples so that a consumer can't say a site has promised them they'll make millions.
I am not saying that shady sites that use disclaimers do not exist. However, I am saying anyone that doesn't have a disclaimer should raise an even larger flag with a consumer.
4:33 pm
I purchased the program. I found the page with lessons. I read and printed out Step 0 – Introduction Course Details. Since then I've been unable to log in – can't find the correct URL. Can you help me?
4:39 pm
Yes. You can simply send any Niche Blitzkrieg questions about your account to http://www.michaelbrownsupport.com
Just tell us whats wrong and what your username is and we'll get someone on it right away to help you get going.
5:43 pm
paul your site is a must read for anyone even thinking about a home base business!and just to add my little two cents, i have read many disclaimers they have totally turn me off.
here is why, there is nothing wrong with protecting your self.
but not one of them protects the buyer at all. here is a short example. no guaranty you will make a penny,we're not responsible if you down load a virus through our system,you agree us our system,designers,webhost,website and our grandmothers are not held in any way responsible.and you shoulder all damages.you get the drift.so how are the disclaimers helpful to the buyer at all? virus from their downloads alone could cost you hundreds if not even thousands to fix by a professional.
6:06 pm
I hear what you're saying, Ken, and I wish I had the perfect answer. I don't. For example even if a company put up a policy that covered viruses from downloads – they would still have to put in quite a few qualifiers to require the customer to prove that the virus did in fact come from their site. I don't see any way around that.
However, this brings up another point – and that's about "Guarantees" you see on a site. Money-Back Guarantees are great, but obviously they are only as good as the company or person behind them.
As someone once stated on a popular scam-warning forum about a recent scam:
"who says you get a refund? mickey mouse says? simon says? oh, the guy who scammed you says?
guarantees only have value if you have some way to collect. like, if, you know who the guy is and where he lives.
i don't think the website is still there. gone, to a galaxy far, far, away."
This is why I TEST the guarantees to make sure they honor the refunds. I don't care how great a product is, it's not going to be for everyone and if the product offers a refund I want to make sure they can get it.
6:29 pm
Ken,
I agree with a lot of what you said.
Not really sure how you can write a disclaimer to protect the buyer however. For instance a company could NOT say "We guarantee you will make $xxx or anything", "We will pay for damages if something outside of our control happens" etc. Unfortunately, many times buyers will not use the products the way they are designed or sometimes not even use the product at all. They start, get distracted by everyday life and never come back. To guarantee that person will make any money would be irrational to say the least.
Language like that about the virus isn't to say that the product owners will give you a virus or that they aren't trying to protect you. However, it's to point out that is a hacker hacks the site and uploads a virus how could the product owner stop that? Sites have been sued over things such as that before – even though it was not their fault. So the company must protect itself.
Now keep in mind everything is designed to prevent that sort of scenario but it's a fact of life that it could happen on any site – at anytime. That's why everyone needs virus protection.
Like Paul commented there really isn't a perfect solution. That is why sites like workathome truth are important. Real people testing the products to make sure they comply only helps the consumer. Plus, you can always see feedback from others and from your own personal experience.
6:34 pm
Ken,
On another note a Money Back Guarantee is about the closest thing a company can put out to protect the buyer. But, again as Paul mentioned those are only as good as the seller of the product. If they are dishonest then it might not even be helpful. Some companies make it hard to get a refund.
That is why credit cards have allowed the use of charge backs.
(A sidenote: At Niche Blitzkrieg we make it easy – send us an email and we send the refund for any reason.)
Again, another reason to stay informed by sites like WAHT that are designed to protect you by reviewing programs first.
I really appreciate the strides Paul takes to accurately report work at home programs.

Thank you for the layout to success, you have outlined it very nice indeed.

hello ken. generating some money through the internet is really interesting but could sometimes requires you determination to be able to pursue it. your passion should also be accompanied with ideas and right actions. thank you for this article because there are a lot of tips on it that could really strengthen the people's grip into the field's battle. keep it up. you're doing well.
6:54 pm
just a thought here paul,after much disappointment and reading through so many lame offers.oh i same lame do to if the offer does not have the following, i just hit delete.
# 1.a legit e-mail address to verify.#2 a legit phone number that can be verified for contact.#3. a legit address of location to verify.a google search check is a mircle worker to find out several so called programs are useing the same local.they must all be micro size to all fit in that little mail box. ha ha.i have come to believe one must learn about what it is you want to do first don't dive in head first then drown. paul i would like to try wealthy affiliate.now i am sure there might be better.but one must crawl before they run what do you or others think? kyle & carson have been pretty straight about what it's all about, and they do not promise when you turn on your computer money with be thrown at you through the screen.any tips will be welcome.
8:20 pm
Ken,
Wealthy Affiliate is a great site. My only concern has been that for someone new it CAN be a bit daunting, because there is so much information.
However, if you can stick to a plan and focus on ONE section of the site at a time and initially use the forum mainly to help you when you get stuck and NOT get distracted by all kinds of other ideas that you'll find in the forum, then there's no reason it wouldn't be a good choice for you.
I talk about Wealthy Affiliate review here where I recommend a similar program that I feel is a bit more focused.
However, WealthyAffiliate definitely has more "goodies" (mainly in the form of tools to help you).
If you do end up joining WealthyAffiliate – look for affiliates marketing the product as each one will likely offer you a bonus for joining WealthyAffiliate through their affiliate link. So, pick a bonus you think might help you the most.
If you do a search on "Wealthy Affiliate bonus" I'm sure you'll find quite a few. Or even just "Wealthy Affiliate" or "Wealthy Affiliate review".

TO MR MICHAEL BROWN:regarding uploading viruses from a purchased program,through down loading info to video's.the part about hackers hacking a system such as these, where's the incentive in that for them? i would'nt know a hacker if i met one.and it's possiblY true, a hacker or wanna be out there playing a very bad game.on the other hand could the virus come from a very poorly written program? you teach marketing correct? your familiar with websites, i'm only assumeing,and possibly programs.perhaps to help protect yourself as well as buyers.offering a virus protection link buyers could down load would help the buyer & seller.this may sound a bit nutty from others point of view.and i am not a I.T TECH,and if a hacker truly wants to get in they will.the normal person would know a computer virus from the common cold.perhaps yourself or paul's site could educate people regarding this. just a thought. KEN
6:59 pm
You're right Ken. That is a section that needs to be built out on this site.
I do have a section where I've included information from OnGuardOnline here:
http://workathometruth.com/Games-from-OnGuardOnline.php
Thanks for reminding me.
12:00 am
Michael writes on his site: "My private students are already paying me nearly $600 a month to learn what you're being taught on the inside. Niche Blitzkrieg is the closest thing to hands on training without the large monthly fee. It doesn't get any easier and affordable than this."
Well, the problem with that, and I see this a great deal, is that Ohio has a business opportunities law, see: http://codes.ohio.gov/orc/1334
This Act governs a purchase a job scheme, when the purchase price is between $500 and $50,000.
I have looked at Michael Brown's site, and it seems reasonable, but it is very likely that if people are paying him more than $500, he is not in compliance with the Ohio Act, which requires a disclosure document but not registration of the document.
4:03 am
I'll be sure to point out what you've mentioned here.
One question though…is that true for business coaching as well? Typically Michael isn't selling any specific "plan" in his coaching.
He is offering business coaching services to established businesses AND people who want to develop a business and it's up to them to decide on the market and products, etc.
His business coaching services don't seem to meet most of the requirements of what constitutes a "Business opportunity plan” that the page you reference lists:
(D) “Business opportunity plan” means an agreement in which a purchaser obtains the right to offer, sell, or distribute goods or services under all of the following conditions:
(1) The goods or services are supplied by the seller, a third person with whom the purchaser is required or advised to do business by the seller, or an affiliated person.
(2) The purchaser is required to make an initial payment greater than five hundred dollars, but less than fifty thousand dollars, to the seller or an affiliated person to begin or maintain the business opportunity plan.
(3) The seller makes any of the following representations:
(a) That the purchaser will be provided with retail outlets or accounts, or assistance in establishing retail outlets or accounts, for the sale or distribution of the goods or services;
(b) That the purchaser will be provided locations, or assistance in finding locations, for vending machines, electronic games, rack displays, or any other equipment or display for use in the sale or distribution of the goods or services;
(c) That the purchaser can earn a profit in excess of the initial payment;
(d) That there is a market for the goods or services;
(e) That there is a buy-back arrangement."
I'm not clear how general business coaching would fall under the "Business opportunity plan" regulations, but obviously I'm not a lawyer and you are, so I'll make sure that Michael looks at this.
But if what you're saying is correct it would be very interesting as there are a lot of people in the internet marketing space who offer general business coaching who would really need to take a look at their state regulations.
4:21 am
Michael, do you have all the various states that have business opportunity regulations on this list:
http://bizop.ca/consumer-law.htm
I remember looking for something like that a few years ago.
3:32 pm
Paul, the state biz op laws can all be found here:
http://ftc.gov/bcp/franchise/netbusop.shtm
Yes, a lot of people offering either coaching services or teaching services are likely to fall afoul of their state's biz op laws or the FTC's new biz op rule when it comes out.
Ironically, for many of the better sites filing the disclosure document might well be a great marketing move.
4:13 pm
Thanks, Michael
I really would have never thought of that.
Thanks for the heads up.
5:56 am
Does mega classified millions teach you how to do keyword research and market & backlink analysis? If not, how & where can you learn these skills? You say to be where the money is you need to do these things but nobody ever explains it. I'm not even sure what a backlink is. Am I too dopey for this & should just stick w/ surveys? Believe it or not I have a bs in finance – just not the internet.
By the way, you're very kind.
Thank you,
Crystal
2:30 pm
Crystal,
Paul pointed this post out to me. I am the creator of both Mega and Niche Blitzkrieg. I will make a raw suggestion here. I would honestly start with Niche Blitzkrieg if you're brand new and have had no prior experience.
Can you make money from Mega as a newer person to it? Yes, and we have several come in who are brand new that start making money. But, Niche Blitzkrieg covers more of the detailed fundamentals like explaining what backlinks are and how websites rank etc.
Mega does as well but not in the extent shown in NBK. Mega is more of a "Do it exactly like this" with less details course. Which can make it easier but in turn you may not fully understand exactly why you're getting the results you're getting.
People seem to have more success when they start with NBK and later on get into Mega. But, both will work and work well… this is just simply my opinion.
I hope this helps you and we look forward to working with you.
3:47 pm
Well that was alot to read at once (including the comments) I feel like the Niche program would be nice; however, a turn off for me is the way the site is laid out. No Offense Michael but it resembles every scam site out there and that is a definite turn off. Maybe the content is different, but I feel like it should be more like this one. With everything being in the center and going straight down, and the highlighted words, and "proof"…IDK just a suggestion…
~Eddie
6:55 pm
@Eddie Dior: Eddie, for some reason Michael is having trouble posting to this blog today, so he asked me to post this:
"Eddie,
Michael from Niche Blitzkrieg here.
Not sure what to tell you as I can't possibly make someone who feels like they are going to get scammed feel any better.
The only thing I can say is that we have over 3000 members now with a really active forum, a very low refund rate.
As far as the site having a sales letter, that's marketing. In order to tell someone what the system is all about it has to be laid out in a way that it can be read and proven to sell.
There is also proof on the sales page, not sure what you're talking about there.
Also we offer a 60 day Money Back period just in case you get into the system and you feel it's just not for you. We have a support # you can call and a support desk that you can email if you need anything.
Hope this helps you with your road block.
-Michael Brown"
4:27 pm
LOL, I wasn't referring to me, I am just saying it is laid out very similar so OTHERS may be weary, I just don't have the money, otherwise I would definitely give it a shot. I was just trying to give some tips on making it be part of it's own league so that people don't go to the site, see its setup and leave before even reading any of it, but it's all good. Obviously you have had success with it so what I say doesn't really matter lol
