Network Blazer Review
Overview: £20 per month to build and host easy to make affiliate websites.
I first joined Network Blazer with a free trial which came with an ebook which has now been replaced by Info Product Killer. Network Blazer is run by a man with a split personality. His evil side is an lazy, arrogant, 17 year old, international sex machine and affiliate millionaire with a fondness of the word “numpty”. In some of his videos he talks about Affi as if he is a different person and at one point even received a text message from him. Thankfully his alter ego seems to have disappeared although I’m not entirely sure that his technical support isn’t another side to his complex personality.
Network Blazer itself is a content management system designed to make building an affiliate website easy. It does this well, this most complex code you’ll need to understand is [LINK=http://www.example.com/]Buy Toys heres![/LINK]
Network Blazer provides an easy interface for uploading pictures, text and most importantly price comparison charts which are updated automatically.
One of the best features is that you don’t need to pay for a host or deal with FTPing everything for the site since all sites are hosted on Network Blazers servers. There is no limit on the number of sites you can host on their which is a great deal in itself. It has a members’ only forum with lots of nice people and no egos.
The downside is that you have no control over the code. If you want to do anything which isn’t built into the system, there’s no way to do it. For example, Google analytics is built into the system, but Webmaster tools isn’t. You can’t edit CSS (well you can change the background and text colours) which makes all Network Blazer sites look very similar. This can make them an easy target for a manual penalty and you might need to deal with a Google reconsideration request. Many updates to the backend are talked about but rarely delivered with a few acceptations such as servers based in the US to help with localisation.
Network Blazer Conclusion
If you have could fully edit your sites, I would recommend Network Blazer to just about anyone who wants to get into affiliate marketing. But you can’t so I’m going to say it’s a great all in one affiliate website package for people who don’t have much experience building websites.
Thank you Adam for your review of Network Blazer. I will take it into consideration before I decide whether or not to sign up. I do have several WordPress sites and was told Network Blazer works well for affiliate sites.

i’ve just bought IPK and found out Network Blazer is the upsell. You did a very informative review of it. I too am a bit concerned that all the sites created would be too much the same making them vulnerable. I’ll check out some other reviews then make my decision.
Thanks for the review I bought IPK and was just checking some reviews. Still don’t know if I will go with network Blazer. I’m still a little new at setting up blogs and websites, but since I bought the IPK template, I should be able to set up the basic site, but I’m not for sure about creating the so called mother site that IPK teaches you.
Thanks again
