This is the ONLY review of First-Time Internet Marketing Profits (FIMP) from a Wealthy Affiliate member, that doesn’t purposely prop up the WA community.
But no offense to those members’, BTW. 😛
Joking aside, does Ian Pribyl’s FIMP platform really live up to your expectations?
Or is it just another lame WarriorPlus type of product that doesn’t paint the whole picture when it comes to making a buck online as a newbie?
Well, there’s only one way to get the truthful answer you seek, and that’s to continue reading from someone who has gone through the course…

Basically, he gives you all the essential components of starting, building, and scaling a successful online Biz from scratch – whatever the industry or money-making vehicle you choose.
Final Verdict: Legit (Highly Recommended).
But before you dive into this FULL review, I recommend you also see Ian Pribyl’s book ‘From Nothing’ (below), which is FIMP’s companion.
Or in Ian’s words:
“It’s the step-by-step book putting GURUS out of business – the only affiliate marketing and blogging training you’ll ever need”.

And there you have it…
Literally HOURS of in-depth training from Pribs on starting and growing a successful web-based business from the ground up.
YES, there’s a heck of a lot to absorb.
But if you do the training at your own pace – breaking down the sections and lessons – actually implementing the stuff on a daily basis…
I can see you being a profitable badass blogger down the road!
Is Support Also Tied in With First-Time Internet Marketing Profits?
Yes, indeedy!
There are two ways of getting support from Pribs.
First of all, you can blast an email his direction.
And secondly, there’s the “FIMP Fam” – the members’ only Facebook group.
But before the words “UGH, not another Facebook group!” flow from your mouth…
In my experience, Ian’s group of FIMPers is EXTREMELY helpful and active.
See for yourself.
Side Note: My plea for for help was due to p*ss poor progress of another blog I started way before I found FIMP.
So when you’re in a bit of a pickle, there are always members (including Pribs himself) who are more than happy to help you come unstuck.
What’s The Cost of First-Time Internet Marketing Profits, You Ask?
To become a member of FIMP will cost you a one-time fee of $497 or 3 instalments of $187 if you can’t quite afford a chunk of change up front.
And on top of that, you’ll obviously need some cash set aside for a domain name and web hosting to actually get your own WordPress blog set up and running.
Furthermore, there’s an optional cost for the Long Tail Pro keyword tool if free tools don’t tickle your fancy.
Yeah, there are costs. But you should consider them as “investments” in your future, at the end of the day.
Plus, the blogging route is one of THE least expensive ways of starting an online Biz – particularly if you’re on a budget.
Final Conclusion: Is First-Time Internet Profits Worth it?
Absolutely, beyond a shadow of a doubt, in my opinion.
I’ve had first-hand experience with Ian’s training – not to mention I’ve read FIMP’s sibling ‘From Nothing‘ cover-to-cover.
So I can honestly say that Ian goes above and beyond to show newbies how to create full-time income-producing online businesses from ground zero.
I assure you, (besides Wealthy Affiliate – Oh, and a couple of other similar courses lol), nothing else comes remotely close to First-Time Internet Marketing Profits.
So if you wanna create a successful digital empire as a blogger, then FIMP’s got your name written all over it.
Your buddy, Neil 😀

Looks like FIMP has a ton of positives packed with great learning resources. I am curious. I have been an affiliate marketer for over 5 years now.
Is this really geared more towards beginners? I know there is always something to learn, but if a lot of it is basics to get started then that would not be what I needed.
It sure does!
Yes, FIMP is tailored for the “newbie”, in my opinion. But with that said, even if you’re experienced, you’re bound to learn something new when it comes to affiliate marketing and building your blog (just like I did). Additionally, you can purchase ‘Internet Marketing Profits’, which is Ian’s advanced training course if you want to take your Biz up a few notches.
Wow, this was an awesome in-depth review on First Time Internet Marketing Profits. Not surprisingly, your spoiler alert about blogging being the most inexpensive way to starting out online made me chuckle. You see, I’ve finally learned that blogging is pretty much foundational for any serious online business.
It’s sites like yours that continue to inspire me to push forward, to work smart, and to work hard on my blog. Thanks for this enlightening post 🙂
Much appreciated, Paul!
I’m glad you found humour and encouragement in my review. Keep up the good fight with your blogging efforts.
Thank you for this review on First Time Internet Marketing Profits. As you mentioned, there are a lot of products on WarriorPlus that are not worth the money. FIMP though seems to provide you with the training that you need to be a successful affiliate marketer.
It is not easy starting as a newbie, and the training is very important, but then you have to put into practice what you learn in the training.
And yes, it is hard work and perseverance. FIMP seems to be the way to go to get the extra training and support.
Anytime!
Heck yeah… FIMP’s worth a million times more than any WarriorPlus product! Fact.
And it’s the same with any decent internet marketing training platform – you only get out what you put into your online Biz.
Thanks for sharing a very well written review with us.
FIMP seems like a good program in some ways.
However, I think the price is a bit too much. Even if it is offering its value. Even if it’s offering stuff that’s worth a million, in todays age, I think that amount is far too high to just take a chance on.
It’s a pleasure, Kev!
Yeah, I can see that FIMP isn’t everyone’s cuppa from a price angle.
But having said that, when you implement Ian’s lessons and give your Biz time to take off, the training can pay for itself. Plus, Ian offers a triple money-back guarantee that covers a whole year. So really, FIMP is risk-free. 🙂
Hey, just wanted to jump in here and say thank you for not trying to blow smoke up the backside of everyone. I too developed my own site and it is never easy, it is a job and a challenge but it is a legitimate way for someone who doesn’t have the winning lottery ticket to have a chance at retirement.
I know I will! But it isn’t a job to take a nap on…, especially at the beginning. Though after awhile those naps are afforded to you…lol.
Haha, don’t mention it, Glenn!
I totally agree! Having your own WordPress blog sure is your ticket to freedom. But HARD WORK is definitely required to cash in that bad boy!
Happy napping down the road 😉
