Blame Bill and Microsoft!

He strikes again, causing my video drivers to get screwed up all by themselves and for no reason at all. But rest assured, Da Hustler is hard at work to deliver the great reviews you have come to expect.

My first video Highlight shines the light on OneYearGoal.com. This site is run by a ‘regular’ guy whose goal is to make $100,000 over the course of one year, mainly using online hustles. **Caution: This video is LOOOUD and will wake the dead, so be sure to adjust your speakers accordingly. (sorry about this, I do know about it and future videos will be at a normal level)

Hustle on OneYearGoal!

*These figures may have risen/fallen since the video was originally produced.

No I haven’t lost my mind (not officially anyway). If you take a look at the title of this Hustle Highlight, you might be wondering if it is what it appears to be. Well it is — but not really. Straddling the lines of public outrage and personal creativity, I bring to you the focus of the Highlight this week, NiggyBuzz Blog:

When I first came across this blog, because of the name I just had to see what the heck this guy was about — only it isn’t a guy! The site is run by a woman named Inga, and I cannot immediately tell what country she is from. Other than the name, the site is actualy quite attractive — I haven’t seen this combination of colors look so good on the net as of yet. It really works for Inga, and I believe that there may be copycats once she gets bigger.

Of course a lot of my hustlers out there want to know the story behond the name. I did too, and luckily for us Mrs. Inga was gracious enough to make a whole post about it. Here is a quote from her site:

Niggy was my very first username on net and I still use it for my PTR Programs (Paid To Read), I am owner of 5.

Where did I got that name? Hehehe… My name is Inga. Time to time I write SMS to my husband and when I write fast (when I want say more things in less words and faster LOL), I write very wrong, with lot of typos. So one day I wrote at end of SMS not Inga as usually but Nigga (typo!). Later he show me that message and we was laughing and then – I found if I change last character to “y” it could be nice nickname for me (we just got our very first internet connection). That’s the all story!

I swear if it were anyone else — especially if they were from the states — I would not only be very skeptical, but boycott the site because of pure stupidity. But Inga really does pull it off, and I believe her story.

NiggyBuzz Blog has a lot going for it. I like that the most recent post from each category is posted at the top of each page, and it is not very intrusive. Navigation is smooth and because it is a three-column site, as you scroll more helpful information can be found on the right hand side of the screen. There is a ‘Users Online’ feature on the rightmost column, but it’s really not needed and can be removed. Ad networks are displayed and blend in well with the layout. There’s a couple of social networking buttons at the top right of the page, and although not intrusive, they seem to clash with the layout a bit. At the very bottom of the page, however, there are many, many more networks, but the layout is superb — That take up only two rows and make a perfect spot for that kind of information. Inga gets cool points for that.

The information appears to be very well written, more in a conversational format than anything else. NiggyBuzz is definitely different from your everyday ‘make money online’ site, and that is what is sorely needed in this genre.

Best Feature: The Name (very marketable)
Worst Feature: The Name (can easily give the wrong impression); also there are some Wordpress database errors on a couple of pages that should be cleared up (they’ve been there for a while it seems).
Why you should visit this site: Inga seems to be a very sincere, sweet person who also wants to make money online. The site’s layout is pleasant and good information can be found within.

Hustler’s Rating: 3.5 hustlemen (out of a possible 5)

Not only is she a bona fide hustler, but she teaches other people how to be one as well, which is definitely a plus in my book! Meet this week’s hustler, Loral Langemeier.

Now, at first glance, Ms. Langemeier’s website ‘Live Out Loud‘ reads just like one of the many sales pages that you see on the internet. The site is not Web 2.0, navigation is a bit cumbersome at times, and there is a very basic feel to the site. If I didn’t know about the power of her programs, I would be quick to dismiss this as just another site owner trying to convince me to spend more of my hard earned money.

‘But wait! There’s more!’

The power of Loral’s programs is what overshadows the lack of flash and pizazz within her site. On the home page there is a link to free webinars: seminars that are held on the web for anyone to join in and view. Why is this such a big deal you ask? Well how many millionaires take the time to interact with their audience for free? In addition to this, Loral has also held free seminars across the country, with her team available to answer any questions that you may have about possible business ventures. Loral preaches the importance of having a team, because there is only so much you can accomplish on your own. If you take this approach and delegate certain responsibilities to others in your online or offline ventures, I’m willing to bet you would see phenomenal growth and success that wouldn’t have been possible before.

As seen on the site, Loral functions as a business coach, a mentor, and a dynamic speaker. She can really motivate you into action, and break things down so that almost anyone can understand. Just like some of the many hustles that can be found on this site, Loral’s words serve as a starting point; she can give you the push to begin, but only you can finish the job. I encourage everyone to take a look at her site and programs, and be sure to enroll in the free webinars because she shows you how to go from not having any idea or clue to developing a systematic way to make money and become financially independent. I salute Loral Langemeier as a Hustler’s Hustler!

The world premier will only be found here, on My New Hustle in the next few weeks.

You don’t want to miss this!!

Zac blends professionalism with a personal touch in the way he presents his reviews. Although he has been blogging for a while, he never seems to forget how to relate to his readers. He has been very successful, and I’m sure the story of how he made over $30k in less than one year will definitely inspire people to check out his story. He calls himself the ‘Super Affiliate,’ and for good reason: he has made more money using various affiliate programs than most people will make in a lifetime of trying.

In addition to his successes, Mr. Johnson appears to be very humble. He is quick to point out other successful bloggers in the community, and has been seen on numerous occasions swapping stories and experiences with them. Most people don’t seem to quite grasp that you cannot make it to the top alone, and this kind of camaraderie underscores the importance of being down-to-earth, approachable, and willing to help others. It’s these qualities that draw people to you, and in turn you reap the rewards of being selfless and transparent.

If you want to read an inspirational story of success, while also learning how you can implement winning strategies into your online ventures, a visit to ZacJonson.com is a definite must for any aspiring web entrepreneur.
