GiveAwayWebsite- Russell Brunson’s Latest Robbery!
I think I should have written this review little earlier so that I could have saved few people’s money. At the time of writing this there are only 27 slots left out of 100; Which means Russell already ripped 73 people’s $297 and 27 will be ripped-off soon.
The BLATANT Lie
In his sales letter Russell says “I’ll give you $100 for every free website that you give away!”
You’d be CRAY to miss this opportunity if you really get paid $100 for giving away free website. And if the deal is real there is no problem in paying $297 upfront.
How it Work?
Once you pay $297 you will become Russell’s business partner (?!) You’ll get the opportunity to give away his free WordPress blogs to anyone you like.
That’s great!
But how will I get paid?
That’s the secret (catch)
Your customer should purchase a web hosting which you recommend. The hosting company will pay you $100 commission if your customer paid for 1 year hosting in advance. If your customer decides to pay monthly you’ll earn $10 recurring commission.
I hope you understand what I said. Almost all web hosting company’s pay around $100 commission to their affiliates in order to acquire a new customer. It’s not a big secret.
Read everything carefully and save $297; and actually earn money
Start your own Free WordPress Bog Installation Service:
- First join Hostgator.com affiliate program. Depending on volume you’ll get paid upto $125 per new customer you refer to them.
- Install and customize WordPress on your client’s hosting account. Learn about Worpress SEO, plugins, themes (all free)
- Next goto eZineArticles.com and choose around 20 good articles in your niche. Initially post 5 articles and spread remaining articles for one month (Use WP’s Timestamp feature for this)
- Help your client by submitting blog to few good RSS and Blog directories. Optionally, you can write couple of article and submit to article directories.
Now the question is how you’ll get new clients?
The same way you’d be getting new clients had you paid $297 to Russell! (I don’t know if Russell gonna teach how to get new clients)
Post ad on Craigslist, USFreeAds or some other classified ads. Go to some Internet marketing forum and place a add like this:
I’ll install WordPress blog on your server, fully customize it with great looking theme and plugin; SEO it and update content for one full month. This service it absolutely FREE. You just have to purchase hosting from one of the web hosting company I recommend.
With little bit of work and marketing you can easily get atleast 10-30 new clients every month… That’s $1000-$3000 per month!
Don’t know anything about WordPress? Want to know how to play with WordPress?
If you can afford $67, I highly recommend you to invest on WordPress Profit Machine. This video guide will tech you everything about blogging, wordpress, customization, SEO and getting traffic etc. I recommend it even if you are just interested in earning money by blogging. Of course, you can learn everything about blogging for free online. However, sometimes spending money on good resources eases the job.
Conclusion:
I really feel sorry for those 100 people who paid (or will be) $297 to Russell Brunson and becoming a victim of another “Guru Scam”

Everything’s all right with these…
But what type of a conclusion did you draw?
I hope no one will give away 297$ just like that and no one will be scammed..
The idea is good but frankly speaking I use Joomla rather than WordPress
But thanks for the info
Mind blowing way to fraud someone by not exposing oneself. These types of online fraud market is growing day by day. By just exploring the way to cheat someone one is making a huge money be it Russell or any one else.
It’s sad how people like Russell Brunson can scam people like that. Though paying an upfront fee of more than 200$ is really something to be thought about twice or perhaps even thrice. This is another lesson for all of us to be careful, especially when their are upfront fees to pay.
Russell Brunson should feel shame because this is an unethical way to earn money.By the way,I like this post because it teach us how to earn money by just sign up for hosting service affiliates.I never thought of this idea before and it is absolutely brilliant.Hope reviewboss.com will give more idea about making money on internet and will review all the scammers out there so they will never have a chance to rip off our money again.
Thanks a lot for saving my $297. I was fooled by russell and was about to buy a slot. Now I know that I was going to be duped. Now I will always think twice before paying any upfront fee. Thanks for the information.
People like Russel Brunson should really be exposed so that the number of scammers like him will decrease. You have such a noble thought of wanting to save people’s money. A lot of people are being scammed because these people are placing attractive baits. You post will make us more careful this time.
Again, thanks for the information that helps save people’s money from scammy or unhelpful IM products. Saving people’s money really means a lot to them. For every money you save for us, you earn our respect and confidence to buy products from you.
I’ll admit that was a pretty creative idea on Russell’s part, but it’s unfortunate that he’s completely dishonest about you’re going to get paid. Thanks for the heads-up. That was a good crash-course in affiliate marketing too…the HostGator affiliate program looks like a winner. I think I’ll give it a shot!
Fist: Thanks for sharing this info with us.
Before your review I had a good opinion about Russell Brunson.
I didn’t buy anything from him, but heard about his products.
I like the ideas of giving away a wordpress blog with articles and make some money selling webhosting for it.
I will try to apply this strategy, for free, of course, without paying $297 to Russell.
Thanks again for the tips.
I’m glad I found your post today. There are so many scams happening around today and it’s just so rampant. Somebody really need to do something about this or the law enforcement agencies must act fast before further scams take place. I feel sorry for those people who lost their money and I hope with this information, I will send to as many as possible to my friends to acknowledge them.
Oh that is actually a very nice deal. But I have a hard time working with a business partner since I am still a student and I have to attend classes. But whether I am free or not, I want to earn money (who doesn’t?) and I believe this is the greatest offer in the net. The more you give, the more you receive. It pays!
I am ecstatic to find this post! With the increasing number of scams everyday, it is becoming all the more easy to fall into traps for people.
I hope something could be done against such scammers across the internet, though for now the best thing I think that can be done is to be aware of such imposters and one good way is to write about things like these that one comes to know in their blogs.
This is a really good post, thanks a lot!
How about another point of view:
1) The sales letter tells you how the process is going to work (the customer has to sign up for a paid hosting account), so it’s not like he’s trying to hide it from you.
2) If you set up your own website installation service, you will have to:
a) prepare a website. It’s not just a WordPress blog, by the way — there are a few other components included. And I’m sure the blog isn’t just a standard plain vanilla WordPress default installation.
b) do the installation work and provide tech support (or at least respond to emails asking for it) yourself rather than just promoting the offer.
If you’re happy doing those things, then by all means, run your own service. If not, this might be a good option for you.
Yes, the headline does attempt to pull you into the copy by not immediately detailing the fact that there’s a distinction between the free WEBSITE (ie. all the files that are going to be served up) and the non-free HOSTING ACCOUNT which is needed to serve the files. But if you actually read the sales letter, it’s all made clear.
The point is how you sell this “free website”- yeah, you have to sell free product. If you have to list of opportunity seekers then you can hit your list with this free offer and make few sales…
If you can sell this product you can sell any other product on the Internet for free…No need to invest 300 bucks upfront
Qestion for Review Boss:
You say go to eZineArticles.com and get 20 articles. Isn’t that plagerism? I heard search engines don’t like replicated articles. I like the rest of the review, though.
I didn’t mean that you should plagiarize content from ezinearticles. I meant to say that just re-publish the content from there as it is without violating author’s intellectual property. Sure, SE’s doesn’t like duplicate content…but it doesn’t mean that they ban you. Your site will be ranked for longtail keywords in tight niche market.
Thank you for opening our eyes, Russels site still shows 27 slots open ???!!!????
