MLM Blog Theme vs Empower Network Review

By on December 22, 2011 in MLM Site

MLM Blog:

Before I dig into my comparison of MLM Blog Theme vs. Empower Network, I want to make sure something is very clear:

I love David Wood and I love the concept behind Empower Network.  In fact, I am a big fan of just about everything “David Wood”, including his hippie hair. = )

For those if you who are wondering, Empower Network offers a blogging platform built on WordPress Multi-User (MU).  With Empower Network, you get your own blog address on the Empower Network.  This blog is branded to David Wood and Empower Network and for many people this is a great way to get started blogging!

The idea of using Dave’s brand as a way to reach out to people and create leads is a good one.  I used this very same strategy with Ann Sieg and Mike Dillard when they launched their attraction marketing systems a few years ago.

The Empower Network system runs $25 per month, a fair price for the attraction marketing system and blogging platform.

How is Empower Network’s blogging platform different than MLM Blog Theme?

MLM Blog Theme is not a platform, it is a theme or “design” that is built for the WordPress platform.

Let me explain…think about WordPress as if it was a house.  So WordPress MU (the platform for Empower Network) would be like a community of houses all with the same design.

A WordPress Theme could be described as your home decor.  The colors, design and decorations that you put up in your house to make to your own.

MLM Blog Theme is a design that is meant for you to customize (in a very simple, fill in the blank for dummies sort of way) so that the blog is your own “online home”, your own piece of real estate online that you actually own.

Pricing:

Empower Network Blog Platform – $25 per month

MLM Blog Theme – One time $97 for unlimited personal blogs and you will need to get your own hosting for about $5 per month. MLM Blog Theme’s one time license fee comes with all future updates included in the price.

Here is a video that will give you a tour inside of MLM Blog Theme:

If the purpose of your blog is to “brand you” and carve out your own piece of real estate on the Internet, then MLM Blog Theme is probably the best option for you.

If you already have a good following and you don’t mind branding Empower Network and David in order to create leads, then Empower Network is probably a good option for you.

Option 3 which is the one I would suggest is to build out your own blog with MLM Blog Theme and then offer the Empower Network as a promo through your site.  The great thing about having your own blog is that you can promote whatever you like and you are not tied in to any one system.

Empower Network is certainly hot right now, but these systems tend to have a lifespan.  Promoting yourself will last a lifetime.  Although I believe that David Wood is smart enough to keep things fresh and change when needed.

    I was looking for an online marketing system for my team and I was getting quotes from $5K-$15K!!! and 1-3 months of time to develop. A friend of mine told me about iBoostBiz. They over many turn-key lead capture sites, everything from Travel, Weight Loss, Energy Deregulation and more. They have a lead capture system for almost any MLM program. You can easily also create your own landing pages with their wizard. But what’s really awesome is that they have a team sharing feature so anything that you customize can be shared with your team. I was going to build a custom system for my team, with a cost of over $10K, with iBoostBiz I was able to setup my system and get a ton of tools like video e-mail, Toll Free #, autoresponders, and more for $60 and I was up and running in a matter of an hour.

    Well said Ty…. Empower Network is great for brand new people but to ultimately build your business and your authority you MUST get your own personal blog set up and the MLM blog theme is perfect for this

    Blog theme is very important on making a blog, this serve as the identity of the owner as well as the services of information it produces. With this, MLM blog themes are well suited to make business blog also building it’s authority. Good job MLM!

    Multi level marketing is a form of network marketing whereby product sales are critical, and the best MLM opportunities have good selling products that bring the wealth into the business. It is essential for a network marketing program to work properly that its foundation is a combination of good products and good teams promoting these products.
