YEA! I Finally Broke Free From the Chains of Web 2.0
Published: Tue, 03/30/10
I almost feel like a relationship has ended. As of this week, you
won't see me teaching people to build entire empires of content on
free sites. You're going to use them to your benefit a bit, but
never again will I - or you - rely on sites like Squidoo, Ezine
Articles, Blog sites or Hub Pages or anything like them to build
our online businesses.
The crackdowns on web 2.0 sites have bee staggering. Doesn't matter
if your content's 100% original, if you own the site you want to
link to - if you have a PhD in your niche. They can SHUT YOU DOWN
without warning and all your hard work is gone.
This week someone threw me a life preserver. Craig Kaye asked me if
I'd tried out Network Blazer yet - it's kind of a host and site
builder all in one. I hadn't, and was wary of site builders since I
honestly couldn't figure out the one's I'd bought in the past, I'm
embarrassed to say. I don't have a tech-savvy bone in my body.
But after having a Blogger blog with a TON of content shut down
this last week, and a Xomba account deleted because I followed
another marketer's directions, and I had to beg for a second
chance, I was FED UP with web 2.0 and told him I'd try it.
One week ago I registered a domain (that much I can do) and logged
into Network Blazer to build my first site. I'm so proud of it. I
finished it today and registered another domain. I can tell you
what thrills me about this.
No one else is in control but ME.
I didn't need to know site building because it has these things
called components (like modules on Squidoo sort of). It's an
unlimited account system, so I have no expansion constraints. And I
can promote Amazon (or review ClickBank products for instance) on
my sites.
Watch Craig's 2 short recordings of how Network Blazer works from
the inside, and see some of his sites (since mine's brand new),
here:

I also created a short series of videos about Network Blazer here
but this is NOT a tutorial per se - please rely on his member's
area for those. This is just showing you in a little more depth
what I did for my first site and what I think about the tool. Start
watching here:

And last but not least, I made a cheat sheet for those who give it
a try (kept it in Word doc format for you instead of PDF so you
could edit it and print it out easily). You can grab that here:

I haven't been this excited about something since I raved about IPK
over a year ago. The system works. It's ethical. It's easy. It's
got a short learning curve and good return on your investment of
time and money.
With so much scammy stuff still being sold online, it's refreshing
to see something truly valuable and yet affordable being provided
for people who want to build an honest business online.
Tiff :)
