MicroNicheFinder....Should I Buy??

31 replies
First let me start off by saying that i currently have market samurai. Its an awesome program with ALOT of features to it. Thats kinda where my dilemma comes in. It takes a good bit of time to learn how to use it.

So, i recently came across the micro niche finder software and after watching the videos i really like how fast and easy it appears to find keywords quickly. So my question to those of you who have used M.N.F, what are your current thoughts on it? What are the Pro's and Con's??
And for a newbie like myself, is it a good tool to get me started quickly on some micro niche affiliate websites?

    Hi,

    I'm a satisfied Micro Niche Finder user. I like it because it's simple to use and the screen interface is really easy to understand (intuitive as they call it).

    One of the features that I like most is the domain availability search. For example, for a keyword such as "green widget" you can check the 3 variations greenwidget.com, greenwidget.org and greenwidget.net to see whether they are still available.

    Regards,
    Alex

      Do you find it works fine by itself or do you combine it with any other keyword tools? thANKS

    Micro Niche Finder (some old review of mine ) is good, but i am literally addicted to Market Samurai.I think MNF should be in each collection of SEO software, what one tool cant do the other can, and vice versa. Don't only rely on one tool. My $0.02.

    Lots of good feedback so far...... How about using MNF with Market samurai....if so whats the best way to do so?
    {{ DiscussionBoard.errors[1637155].message }}
  • Profile picture of the author bbminded
    So is it fair to say that you can use MNF to quickly set up say a 1 or 2 page blog that leads to an affiliate product faster then most other keyword tools??

      I use both MNF and Market Samurai, depending on what I am trying to do.

      Sometimes I'll use them together - first find keywords with good SOC and then check them out on MS.

        This sounds like a good strategy. How easy is MNF to use initially? And does it come with video tutorials or a Pdf etc??

          When you go to the main page it has an optin box and you can get to see the videos that James has created. BUT... Look on Youtube and you will get a lot of videos by people using it and marketing it.

          There is a Pdf but by and large when you start to use it, it is very intuitive.

          Am I right that Market Samurai has a monthy fee?

          I think I'd be right in saying that you should also have a basic understanding of niche keyword research as it helps with the results that MNF brings up. I'm still learning about how to use MNF more effectively myself personally but it gets updated and when it does it's even better.

            thank brian,

            actually market samurai does NOT have a recurring fee. Just have to pay once. Ill take a look at youtube also for video demo's as well. Still mulling it over in my head if im ready to purchase. But im sure i will in the next couple days here!

    I don't have familiarity with the product, however I have found that I can be very successful by using a combination of freely available tools.

    These include:
    Amazon search
    Google search
    Bing
    Yahoo
    Alexa
    and a few others.

        I use traffic travis with MS and I must say...one good thing about traffic travis is the large keyword list it churns out, especially if you upgrade, it'll spill out 2000 keyword variations of your particular niche keyword from the three big search engines...google, yahoo and bing...and so much more!

          It seems so far like a pretty cool piece of software even in the free mode. Has alot of functions very similiar to MS. I just downloaded it about an hour ago so im just playing around with it a bit. Now i think i just need MNF and ill be set to go!!!!!!

    I use both MNF and Market Samurai. Really do like MNF just for the initial picking out niches stage, especially with the brainstorm button I've found some really great niches I wouldn't have thought of. Market Samurai has it's place if I'm going after tougher niches or longterm projects. If you're just building small amazon or adsense sites MNF will fit the bill perfectly.

      awesome...just what i needed to hear. Market samurai is without a doubt an incredible tool and does alot. But after watching the MNF videos i really liked what seemed to be a fairly simple and straight to the point keyword(s) finder to do like you stated "building small amazon or adsense sites MNF will fit the bill perfectly"!!

      yes this has happened to me....i had to do a bunch of things before it would let me use it after that happened too.


      we have both, had mnf for awhile and just bought ms....i havent used ms all that much, but it seems like twice the tool that mnf is. i get frustrated by how slow mnf can be and also i can NEVER get the soc column to work EVER! its frustrating and we have emailed support and nothing. just from the few days that i have used ms, i feel like even tho it is more in depth and thus takes longer to learn all the ins and outs, the basic features are much more user friendly the mnf.

          it doesnt seem to want you to load full columns (if that makes sense)...like a lot of the info that automatically loads for you in the kw research area of ms, in mnf you have to either click one by one on each kw to get certain information and then when you want to load a full column, it takes forever on some....i think that is actually how i ended up making google mad actually.

    I've not used MNF before, but Market Samurai is simply awesome. The more you carry out projects on it,...the more you get used to it. Anyone else have suggestions about MNF? I'd like to have an idea of some of it's features also.

    So I assume since I have Traffic Travis (free) and MS I'm set? MNF doesn't have a trial but if I don't need it that works too. I love MS!

    I have all 3 TT, MS, and MNF - MS is for sure the the last one I'd give up ! To be honest, I still have not really played with TT much yet......and I should, but I have very little trouble with MNF.....and absolutely love it.

    You do get an occasional glitch and my have to "reload" or if you don't give it about 1 full second or two between SOC inquiries ( I do mine one at a time ) you can get that nudge from goodle. I've never been completely shut out though, just had to wait a second and retry.

    After thinking about it for some time, and having a tough decision like you, I finally made my final decision to buy MNF from reading the reviews at imreportcard.com, which is a pretty handy place for this kind of "info search" on people and their products. When I read what an awesome compliment it was to MS...I made up my mind, gritted my teeth and went for it........I'M VERY GLAD I DID ! - - - Jeff in Oregon ......PS That brainstorm button REALLY is very cool.

      I had the free trial of Market Samurai a few months back, but eventually settled on MNF. One of the reasons was that it was cheaper, and the other because Warrior Daniel Molano reviewed both and said he preferred MNF. Here's that review:-

      Micro Niche Finder Review – MNF Vs Market Samurai

      Both are outstanding, but after using MNF for a few months now, I'm still very happy with the decision I made It does everything I need it to and more. You can't go wrong with either MS or MNF, but MNF just shades it for me

          As long as you take action on the great keywords you find - all is well The 'projects' feature they added in the last couple of months is fantastic and helps me keep things organised.

    *sigh* I really wish there was some sort of trial for MNF. At least I'd get the chance to compare.
