I really agonized over trying to pick fault with Commission Blueprint. I hate to sound biased or like I'm trying to get a sale out of you, but I can honestly say hand on heart that it's s great product across the board.
However, nothing and nobody is perfect and there are a couple of things which I found a little off. Firstly, I found that for people in a rush (such as people who work long day jobs and can only work on their affiliate marketing business on the evenings or weekends, then taking the time to read the written manuals is not productive when you can simply plug the templates in and amend for your own market.
But having said that, I still think it's important to understand the theory and principles behind the templates so you have the knowledge to take it with you in whatever you do.
I also didn't appreciate the fact that the entire Commission Blueprint guide is focused entirely around PPC advertising. It would have been nice to see some other sources of traffic generation, but I guess that's going to compromise the course in terms of focus and would only water everything down anyway.
I do think it can be dangerous to build an entire business on Google, so I would suggest spending your profits on SEO for sites so that you can get organic listings in the future. But that's beyond the scope of this review and you can always think about that in a year when you've really cranked PPC to the max (which is hard as there's no limit to the money you can make).
Finally, the section on keyword research does rely somewhat on using other tools that often require subscription or other forms of payment. I don't like to see this after I've just paid for a course promising so much. On the other hand, there's a ton of free keyword research tools out there and this is the only part of the course where I think there's just too much overload going on.
Keyword research is important, but when starting out you shouldn't really need to pay for tools to find a bunch of keywords to get started.
