The New BANS Guide: My Review
Okay, so the long awaited product from the creators of Build A Niche Store is finally here and I have had chance to work my way through it over the last 24 hours and it's truly been an enjoying read.
I have been building niche product based affiliate websites online now for the last 3 years and as many of you know my first experiences were with BANS. I made a lot of mistakes with BANS but from those mistakes I was able to learn an awful lot, which has enabled me to have the success I have had with my own network of sites. So with that said I actually bought the guide more out of curiosity than through necessity, but I am very glad I did!
If you are sitting asking yourself whether you should buy this guide then there are two things I encourage you to do first:
1) Ask yourself if you feel your affiliate websites are currently performing to 100% of their potential?
2) Do you know how to build a product based affiliate website from start to finish with BANS and/or WordPress AND get it to produce an income of $250 or more per month?
If you have answered yes to the two questions above then I would say don't read any further because this guide probably isn't for you. If you are already successful with product based affiliate websites then this would be a waste of money.
So for those of you who are still reading, here is my review.
What is the guide & what does it cover?
The Number 1 Way to Make Money Online is a new online guide from Adam and Kelvin Firminger, the creators of BANS, AKA Build A Niche Store. It covers a very detailed start to finish tutorial which will allow you to develop a fully functioning product based niche affiliate websites which have the potential to earn you a full time income.
The entire process is covered very thoroughly in 9 stages, starting from 'Niche Market Research' running all the way through to marketing your new website and eventually moving on to develop a network of income generating affiliate websites. One major thing I liked about the guide is that it does cover everything you need to know including the technical things like actually physically building an aesthetically pleasing website, heck they even provide you with a free template to use on your BANS sites. One thing I will say though is that the guide does tend to focus on BANS and phpBay/Wordpress but many of the processes will apply to other static product based affiliate websites.
Who is the guide for?
The information in the guide doesn't reveal anything new that many experienced niche affiliate site builders would not have already known, but what the guide does do is provide newbie internet marketers with an extremely easy to follow and step by step process to making money online. What it also provides is a clear and concise reference for more experienced marketers to follow and work from.
What you have to remember and keep in mind is that this isn't a well written guide written by a content spinner, this is written by two individuals who are making a full time living online using affiliate websites. This guide is a template of the exact steps they take in the web building process which has enabled them to build a massive network of income generating affiliate websites.
How easy is the guide to follow?
Yes, the guide is very easy to follow, in fact what I would say is that if you can't follow this guide and make money then there is something you are doing seriously wrong.
The guide uses a simple 9 step process which is laid out clearly for you to follow. One negative which I have heard people mention is the use of fonts on the page, some text which is emphasized appears larger and some text is smaller, all in all though I personally think it makes reading such a lot of information much more 'fun'.
Can you truly make the profit mentioned from a network of niche product based affiliate websites?
What you need to remember is that this, like many products, is only a guide and it isn't going to do the work for you. The Number 1 Way to Make Money Online is a clear and comprehensive guide; if you follow it to the dot then you can't really go wrong. Be warned though, don't cut corners.
Overall Cost of the Guide
The new guide currently costs just $24.95 but it will go up in three days to $44.95, do I think it's worth that much? Yes, I can say I do!
In Conclusion
Pros
- An easy to follow 9 step guide to making money online
- It does what it actually says; you really can make money online if you follow this guide
- The guide is online which means you can literally access it from anywhere; conventional e-books are only available from wherever you download them too
- Well laid out and presented
- Current price is only $24.95 which includes a premium BANS theme
Cons
- It's a guide, it won't do the work for you
Overall I have thoroughly enjoyed reading through the new guide and it will certainly open up opportunities for a lot more people who have been struggling to grasp the concept of building a successful affiliate website.
I will be applying the principles of the guide to my current experimental BANS site build which is well underway and we will see how it goes.
