i feel they are hypocrites not revealing the actual method, making people run in circles. Selling affiliate products for commission

I've heard this before, they give pretty nice information on their youtube channel, imo. I guess that's perspective

I've tested their method with 2 websites. Both didn't perform as well as other websites I've created and built backlinks too. But that could have just been bad luck on my part.
I do like their process for creating or writing content. The whole formula they use is good and makes sense. And once you get used to it, you can knock out 1200 word articles fairly quickly.
But, IMHO you are going to see better results if you follow their method for content creation but supplement it with backlinks.

How does this work? Is it something special?

I'm big on targeting low competition low volume keywords at first without building backlink myself, like, waiting for them to come organically

You mean the two guys that say "No need to build backlinks"
Followed by
"Look how well our site is doing without us building backlinks"
Then you check their site in ahrefs and they got 10,000 backlinks in a week.
Yeah.... didn't purchase any backlinks at all did they...
There is a reason they are on youtube, because if they could really rank that easily without pumping money into it, they wouldn't need youtube for an income stream at all. They are liars. It's that simple. And they prey on those who have no knowledge in SEO.

I have checked his Journey. You gotta be really good at what you have done for like 30 years to replicate his journey. Like he has excellent knowledge in radiology because of working in that field for 30-40 years. So blogging in radiology is like a breeze for him.

Also, Social Media works for him. Income School doesn't believe the SM traffic( don't know why) but Big Ron created a FB page/group and getting decent traffic. The stats he sent me last time was good.

True, blogging about radiology is easy for me, but that was my point from the beginning. So many people are looking for the "perfect evergreen niche." I say write what you know about and eventually you'll get somewhere PLUS you won't get bored. I did a second niche in kayaking. I like kayaking but only in the summer. I got tired of blogging about it in the winter because it isn't on anybody's mine, even mine.
Pick what you know, and write about it. All the other stuff I do, you can totally replicate: meme page, quize page, youtube live Q&A on the subject, contests, etc.

When I was 29 I didn't know anything. I am sure there are many here in bhw who are not even 29 and or don't know anything. Also they are killing it with blogging. My point is you don't need to know anything to make a killing with blogging.
So if someone pays a fortune to income school guys they expect some resources instead of 2 dudes talking.

Thanks for the insight!
Even 29 seems so far to me, and yeah you're right! They're this philosophy as well, "content is king"

And people pay thousands of dollars for listening to so called "philosophy". Unbelievable.

That but there's more than that. There's lot of forces involved here.
YouTube as FE front end. Which drives the traffic to their website. Few subscribe to them. Few of them get converted into buying their course. Few of them get converted into retainers.
Other have very elaborate funnel.
Some them use to do late night tv commercials in US when there was no internet.

Since all the information is already available freely, I don't recommend buying any course. But IS definitely has very useful information and their method works. I've been using their keyword research method and snippet method and the results are incredible. There's nothing revolutionary about their method, but nobody used to talk about it earlier. Now the newer courses like Passive Income Geek etc promote the same methods in their own course.
As far as the links go, they say that links are important but they don't encourage building links. The keyword research and snippet optimization is enough to rank low comp keywords and get snippets without links. Of course if you have the time or money, you can build as many links as you like. Nobody is going to rank for competitive keywords without links. But the whole point is to find keywords that don't need links.
I'm not affiliated with them in anyway and I'm not even a member. But I definitely found their methods very useful. It's all on their YT channel.
