Some people succeed in the online world and then some keep failing.
Do you know what the difference between these two is?
Besides the right mindset, these days one needs to have proper information on how to do things; one needs to have proper tools to work effectively.
All people have weaknesses and make mistakes from time to time, so it is also great to have someone who can help and be supportive when needed. That means a proper mastermind or a helpful community.
Now does Wealthy Affiliate have all these aspects above?

Is Wealthy Affiliate a Scam?
I do mention also some drawbacks or complaints about the WA so I try my best to make this Wealthy Affiliate Review as unbiased as possible.
Wealthy Affiliate Overview

I will be honest with you about WA and I don’t want to make this review just another sales pitch.
My intention is not to hide anything from you since that would not be beneficial.
Quite the opposite – I want to help you to determine whether this platform is going to be the right spot for you so you can start with your online business.
There is no such thing as a perfect platform, so I am sure there might be some aspects you may not like but overall I think you will be impressed.
You have the benefit to try the platform for free for 7 days.
There is no credit card required.
Within this Starter account, you have 5 lessons that you can go through, including how to choose a niche, how to set up your website, how to create content, understand the keywords, and so on.
After the week, you have 3 choices:
- Upgrade to Premium – Take full advantage of this platform for $49 a month (if paid yearly the price is $495 per year)
- Upgrade to Premium+ – Full access to the training, but instead of 52 Live classes, there are 200+ Expert Classes Per Year, and a lot more
- Keep your Starter account – The training will get locked, but you still have access to WA and you can work on your WordPress website
Please, take your time, read it through and let me know if you have any questions in the comment section below.
We are going to cover in detail what is wealthy affiliate about, so you will learn how to create a website and what it takes to rank well in search engines.
You can become an SEO expert and it will be up to you to run your own online business or you will offer an SEO service for other companies that need that.
Does This Look Like a Scam?
Building Business Online Can Be Fun With Proper Support.
Wealthy Affiliate has been around since 2005. Over time the community of WA has reached more than a million members.
The platform was created as an initiative to help other people to succeed online.

One of the greatest things about Wealthy Affiliate is the community.
There are people from all over the world which means that there are people online 24/7.
I must admit I was truly surprised by the approach of most of the members. They are very helpful and supportive.
The platform is partially made as a social platform.
People write their blogs or ask questions.
They talk inside the online chat area, about various topics (not always related to online marketing). This is also a great source for finding relevant information for your particular problem.
You choose who to follow and when this person posts a blog or asks a question you get a notification. You can also write a private message to a certain person.
I find the community very helpful.
I remember when I wanted to create my website, I had to seek help somewhere else. In many cases, I spent hours until I found the exact answer.
Within the Wealthy Affiliate platform, you also have the search bar where you type your request.

You see that relevant blogs and answers pop down, so you don’t have to raise the question again.
There are members inside the community with many years of experience in the digital marketing field, and many of them have also experience before they joined the Wealthy Affiliate.
As I said there are people from all over the world.
For many members, English is not their first language. Yet they have been able to achieve great accomplishments.
The important is that your English is on a communicative level.
When you write a blog or you do a product review, it is as if you are talking to your friend.
If you still feel like you need feedback, you can ask other members.
You can request feedback and there will be 2 or 3 randomly selected guys who will give you an opinion about your blog.
In my experience, they all have been very objective.
What is a better school than constructive feedback, right? That way you can keep improving. That is the power of the community.
If you would like to take a look inside the Wealthy Affiliate platform, you are welcome to do it:
How Does a Real Scam Look Like?
Just as a side note;
the scammy website does not have a free trial as Wealthy Affiliate has.
Scammy websites usually do not last longer than a few years. Most of the time you are not able to find out who is behind the scam and they definitely do not offer a lot of value (if any).
With that being said let’s find out what Wealthy Affiliate has to offer.
Affiliate Marketing Training Course
The training is the most comprehensive I have found on the entire internet.
Everything that you need to know about affiliate marketing is right there.
Of course, you can check also other sources.
It is perfectly normal and people within Wealthy Affiliate do that as well. Usually, they share their knowledge in their blogs, so it is available for everyone.
There are 2 main training inside the Wealthy Affiliate.
On top of that, you have 52 Live classes per year (every Friday there is Jay ready with his webinar). All webinars are recorded, so you can watch them as many times as you wish.
1) Core training is called Online Entrepreneur Certification
It has 5 levels. Each level contains on average 10 lessons. It is a series of courses walking you through the process of creating a business within any niche you want or are interested in.
I don’t want to overwhelm you here with the training structure. You can learn about it in my guideline. I just want to mention some key objectives:
- Choose Niche
- Setting Up Your Website
- Understanding Keywords
- Creating Keyword-Rich Content
- The Traffic Breakdown
- Low Hanging Fruit
- Understanding the Money in Online Business
- Affiliate Programs, Links
- Earning Pennies or Dollars
- Social Media
- People need to read your content
- Bing and Yahoo – still 33%
- Articulating a plan for months and years…
2) The second type of training is called Affiliate Bootcamp
This training has 7 Levels, again each level contains 10 lessons.
Affiliate Bootcamp is a series of courses walking you through the process of creating a business in a niche related to the promotion of Wealthy Affiliate.
Here are the key objectives of Affiliate Bootcamp:
- Building Your Website (Website Look Around, Plugins)
- Getting Your Website Ready for SEO
- Creating Readable Content that Converts and Using Targeted Keywords
- Understanding Affiliate Programs & Networks
- Making Your Social Profiles Brand friendly
- Social Waste vs. Productivity
- Creating Your Own Videos
- A Lesson about Customer Perspective
- Incorporating Your Custom Sign-up Forms
- Helping Folks is Critical
- PPC on Bing Ads (Paying Traffic on Bing & Yahoo)
- Understanding the Google Adwords Opportunity
- Creating a Long Term, Scalable PPC Campaign
As I mentioned earlier, the Live Events inside Wealthy Affiliate are awesome.
You watch over Jay’s shoulder, how he does things.
Jay is a training chief at Wealthy Affiliate. He offers spectacular live training.
Talking about Jay as a Live Video Training Coach – let’s take a look at how you can create a website in a minute following Jay’s short tutorial video:

You can do that as well:
Now back to the training.
Each Webinar is more than 1 hour long, even if it is scheduled for 60 minutes only. It always lasts 10-15 minutes longer.
At the end of each webinar, there is a FAQ section so people get the answers right away.
I just want to mention some topics that are covered:
- SEO Strategies to Explode your rankings
- Changing WordPress Themes
- Email Marketing (4 hours stretched over 4 webinars)
- YouTube (Ranking, Producing Video, Streaming, Advertising on YouTube)
- Google Analytics (Introduction, Tracking)
- The 2019 SEO Checklist
- Researching of Competition
My absolutely favorite webinars are the Case study series.
You can start your own business just by watching these 4 webinars (if you are a little bit familiar with WordPress and what is going on in the online world).

I was also talking about feedback when it comes to creating your website.
Four times a year there is a “Hot Seat” session webinar where Jay is checking your website and gives you honest feedback.
If your website is not selected, you can still leverage the feedback Jay is giving to another person’s website.
Usually, mistakes we do are in principle very similar. That is why it is worthy to watch how a professional audits a website.
So regarding the training, I can go on and on. If you would like to find out more about training, you can take a look inside the platform.
Just use your email address and you are all set. I will be there as well 🙂
Please note that you have access only for 7 days.
After the week, you can keep your account (it is called the Starter membership), but you won’t be able to take full advantage of the platform.
Above the starter membership, there is only 1 level, which is the Premium.
In case you decide to continue, you would need to sign up for the Premium membership (or Premium+).
And when you sign up, as a bonus I can offer your 1st-month special offer for $19 only.
You can then decide to pay the membership monthly, yearly, or for 6 months.
As a Premium member, you are allowed to create your training and share it with other folks.
Depending on the complexity of your training you get credit.
With this credit, you can either cash out or also pay for the membership or use it differently.
There you find a link where you can sign up (for FREE) for WA. You will get a message from me and Kyle (the founder).
What Are The Issues With the Wealthy Affiliate?
Let me also share with you some of the drawbacks of Wealthy Affiliate.
You may have seen them at different sites, so we will go over them to check how objective they are.
I admit that some of the cons are justified;
But let’s be honest – nothing is perfect.
1) Free Account – Is There a Catch?
I saw a review where they say that there is a catch, regarding the free account.
There is no catch at all.
I always explain that the free option is for 7 days only and the training is limited.
For the 7 days, there is access only to the 1st phase of the training, which is 5 lessons.
I also include that after the 7 days are up, there is no mandatory upgrade to Premium, but the training will remain locked.
There is also no action required from the user since he or she uses only email to sign up.
2) Apparently, the Training is Disorganized
This can be very subjective.
But in my opinion, training is well organized.
Here is how to access the core training. It takes 3 clicks to start with training.

The same applies to other training (within the platform) as well.
I suggest taking a look at this post (Wealthy Affiliate Login) where I describe what the course looks like and how it is structured.
- There is an Online Entrepreneur Certification training.
This is a core training with Wealthy Affiliate. This has 5 Levels (50 lessons). Each Level is nicely structured with a menu on your right to see where you are (what you have already accomplished, and what you have not done yet) - Affiliate Bootcamp. This is secondary training, which is independent of the Online Entrepreneur Certification.
This training has 7 Levels or phases (that equals 70 lessons). Again these are nicely structured. - Live Events.
You can find here more than 300 video courses, on different topics.
These tutorials take place every Friday at 5 pm Pacific Time (PT). All of them are recorded and you can watch them anytime.
These 3 sections are for me the most important ones.
I admit that this platform has a lot of training materials, and a newbie can easily get overwhelmed.
But at the end of the day, it is as easy to navigate throughout the platform as within Facebook.
Everyone can watch a walk-through video where it is explained how to navigate the platform.
3) Wealthy Affiliate Teaches Only Basic SEO Strategies
I am sure SEO can be difficult to comprehend entirely, especially from a technical point of view.
From the practical point of view, everything that I have learned about SEO, I have learned inside the Wealthy Affiliate.
Do they cover every single aspect of SEO?
Most likely not, but again. It is taught what practically works.
I have many posts ranking on the 1st page of Google.
I admit, most of my posts are not ranked within TOP10 – in many cases, I see that other WA member who has more experience than I have outranked me.
The bottom line is, that Google likes quality content.
You have to write for your reader or visitor, and you have to provide him with value.
WA teaches exactly this and they put a lot of emphases that every member should come up with quality content.
Let’s take a look at the Live Events or webinars that are recorded.
More than 400 live events covering different topics.
When we want to find a webinar regarding SEO, we just search for it.

Each webinar lasts more than 1 hour, including a Q&A where members ask questions (of course when the webinar is alive.
That takes place each Friday at 5 pm Pacific Time)
4) Too Many Affiliates – Crowded Space
Apparently, there are too many members within WA (more than 1.5 Million) and it is hard to make a living.
This statement is false.
First of all, there are thousands of niches out there and another thousand “sub-niches” where people can make 4 figures a month.
Take just one example – diet, or losing weight.
Yes, it is not easy to compete with big companies.
But there is always room for people to become an authority within smaller niches like
– How to lose weight after pregnancy.
– How to lose weight after 50.
– Lose weight after menopause.
– Lose weight without exercise and so on…
The thing is that there are more than 4.5 billion people online in 2020. All these people are connected and searching for help, advice, recommendations, and so on.
Another argument against the “crowded space” statement is that even within the same niche the competition is a good thing.
- It is proof that there is money
- Not all people like one kind of approach. What do I mean by that? -> Take a look at the Fast food industry. You have Burger King and McDonald’s at the same corner (or same street very close to each other)
Now does it mean that one of them is out of business? Of course not -> Different people prefer different things, even though these two are in the same industry.
And in the online world, the so-called competition matters even less than in the offline world.
In many cases, people decide what website they want to read based on the actual look of the website.
The design, the color, and the structure of the article.
If they like it, they read it.
Everyone has a different taste.
5) Lack of Control – You Can Be Easily Out of Business
It is said, that the best way how to earn money is to have your own product.
Well, that might be true.
But it takes tremendous work, time, and money to let people know about your new product.
If it is a tangible product – well good luck with that.
You need someone to manufacture it, you need customer service, you need people working for you, you need to pay distributors, and so on.
If you have a digital product – it is easier, but still, you need a lot of time (and often a team of people) to get this done.
Why would a beginner try to come up and sell a new product? It is extremely difficult to do.
Sell what is already selling.
Even better -> get into that game as an affiliate marketer and you will learn a lot, just by applying the knowledge and being part of the game.
There is a big chance that you will earn a lot and eventually with that knowledge and resources you can come up with a new product afterward.
Wealthy Affiliate is perfect for beginners and intermediate marketers.
They don’t teach, how to start a new Facebook, Twitter, or Airbnb.
They want to help a person who wants to learn new skills – how to create a website, how to get traffic, and how to monetize the traffic.
Oh, and that thing – If an affiliate program decides to change the rules or kick you out – Well, that is life. This happens in every industry.
Does it happen every week?
Of course not.
Learn the principle of affiliate marketing.
Apply it in one industry.
If they change the rules – so what?
You have your badge already.
I mean, once you learned how to monetize the website you can go to any industry and/or affiliate program you want.
6) Ranking Within the Wealthy Affiliate is Annoying

Depending on your activity within the WA you are assigned a ranking.
This could be for some members pretty annoying (I admit that).
Some do not care about the ranking and some try to get as high as possible.
Many folks like to compete – it is normal in other walks of life as well.
Do you remember the times in school?
There are classmates with great grades, but they might not be successful in real life.
What I mean by that, is that the ranking within WA does not reveal your financial success.
Many members have 3-digit rankings (even 4) and are more experienced marketers than those with 2-digit rankings.
Some people love to socialize, some do not.
Many members just went through the training, without engaging with the community, and they earn $5,000 a month just from affiliate marketing.
Others reached high ranks but their website has only a few visitors per day.
Again, we people are different.
Creators of WA do their best to show the majority of people what works. Or what works probably the best.
It is up to each member to apply the knowledge.
Regarding affiliate marketing or internet marketing, there is one thought I have in my mind.
I like what John Reese said:
Internet marketing is not science. It is an art.
I am not quite sure if he was the first one who said it but it is true.
With that being said, the perfect training course does not exist.
7) Too Many Affiliates of WA
The concern is about Wealthy Affiliate Reviews.
That there are too many of them and all are just positive ones.
Well, is it wrong? Is it right?
I don’t know.
But If I compare WA with any other similar training course within this industry, I must say that WA training suits me the best.
It does not have to be the one for you.
Therefore there is this 7-day free trial period to test it out.
You have nothing to lose. A week is enough time to figure out whether this is something you like or not.
It is like a probation period. You have a right to leave, without paying a dime.
I think it is fair.
Let me know your thoughts in the comment section below.
I am really curious about what you think.
8) Success within the WA
One particular review talks about one WA member who, apparently, in his 10 years career of being an affiliate marketer does not make a lot.
Here is the screenshot of that review:

Let me point out that the income in that video is for 8 months only, and it is an income from Mediavine Ads.
On top of that, he makes more than $5G’s a month with affiliate marketing only. (you can read his fresh post from January 23rd here)
And let me get one point straight.
Success is relative. Nobody goes to the internet, creates a website a week later makes $3,000 per week.
There is a procedure to get to that point, a learning curve if you will.
Do you know what makes a newbie happy?
- When he finds that his post is indexed by Google. In other words, google ranks his post (on that new website).
- When he sees that his first post is ranked on the 1st page of google
- When he sees that the number of visitors goes up
- When he makes the first sale online – that feeling is amazing
- When he makes 3 figures a month, then 4…
- When he gets to the level so he can delegate the work to others/he can outsource
These are important milestones in every business. It is also called progress. And progress makes people happy.
And I include some of the success stories at the end of this post, too.
In the next section, we are going to cover what WA has to offer, besides the training.
Keyword Research Tool – Included

We all know that to monetize the website, we need traffic.
Wealthy Affiliate’s focus is on organic traffic.
To simplify it:
We are building a website – creating content.
Now people go to Google or Bing and they ask questions or look for help.
At Wealthy Affiliate. we are taught how to get our website on the 1st page for search engines, so people naturally click on our website.
Being on the 1st page of any search engine means traffic.
Once we have the traffic we can monetize our website without being “salesy“.
One of the essential keys how to getting on the first page of either Google or Bing/Yahoo is proper Keyword Research.
If you have not heard about keyword research check the following article, explaining how to research keywords for SEO.
If you are at least a little bit familiar with the Keyword research principle, here you can check out the Jaaxy tool for free.
You have 30 free searches:
Website Builder – Free SSL
People usually tend to freak out when it comes to creating a website.
When I wanted to start my business back in 2014 I had to pay for building my website.
Too complicated I guessed, so I rather hire a company.
Today, with the knowledge I can do that within a few hours including the content and a few pictures.
But still, many folks prefer website builders like Wix, since it may seem easier.
The truth is that it is more expensive than the website platform inside Wealthy Affiliate.
Here is the overview of Wix including the pricing

Inside Wealthy Affiliate, you pay approximately $15 per year.
Try to build your website for free – you see how easy it is.
Create your website with the SiteRubix website platform. Wealthy Affiliate offers some of the most useful and integrated tools for website analysis, ranking, and security.
Have you tried it already?
It is really easy to use.
If you are looking for a great page builder based on WordPress, you can also check the Elementor.
It is Free to use and you can customize any theme.
But I digress.
Become The Online Entrepreneur
Being a member of Wealthy Affiliate is not just a member of some educational platform.
You are part of the community.
You can become a friend with some of the members, or you don’t have to.
It is perfect for introverts (like partially myself) but also for persons who love to create video training and feel good in front of the camera.
I have reviewed many online courses, high-ticket products, and low-quality digital systems, but Wealthy Affiliate is truly the best option for beginners and advanced marketers.
It is also due to the very reasonable price.
The founders, Kyle and Carson want to make this platform accessible for all people.
Wealthy Affiliate is one of the most comprehensive affiliate programs on the internet.
Let me shortly summarize for you what you get if you unlock the full unrestricted Premium access to Wealthy Affiliate:

Let me know what your thoughts about Wealthy Affiliate are.
Is Wealthy Affiliate a Scam?
No, a Wealthy Affiliate is not a Scam.
It offers great training, which is perfect for newbies and intermediate marketers.
Is this the best educational platform there is?
Maybe not, but it depends on what you prefer.
The best would be to try it out for free.
You have nothing to lose – in the worst case you will learn something new and with that information, you can move on to a different course.
Or you can sign up for the Premium membership.
It is up to you.
Test the platform and get back to me, or just get started for FREE and I’ll see you inside 🙂

As far as I am concerned, I believe that WA is one of the best platforms that currently exist. I personnaly took the Online Entrepreneur Curse and I am amazed at the skills that I acquired. I am even currently using them in my copywriting business! I am also very happy because my websites were indexed in Google very quickly and also because I had some traffic though I am not working as hard as I should. But now I am trying something else and I believe that I will mainly focus on my business.
That is great!
I am glad you are making progress.
Wishing you all the best and thanks a lot for stopping by and leaving the comment
Cheers
Mike
I have been a member of the Wealthy Affiliate platform for more than five years now, and I have grown my websites from strength to strength using the training that they supply. They are great at keeping the training updated and relevant, and the best part is all the tools that you need to succeed online are within the platform.
The only thing I think they can improve on is to get some sort of autoresponder going that their members can use. To me this is the only tool lacking in this platform.
Thanks a lot for your comment.
As for the Autoresponder, I agree.
Wishing you all the best
Mike
Many times I hear this question online about whether Wealthy Affiliate is a scam or it, sincerely, Wealthy affiliate is one of the best platforms I’ve ever been a part of online, very accommodating and user friendly. I’ve learned a lot of things from the platform that is helping my business till today and I’m still a member.
Thank you,
I agree with you.
Everyone has a chance to test it out for free and this is really not common when it comes to the educational platforms online.
Have a good one
Mike
Wow, I’m really impressed with your writing skills and this review! Keep it up the internet needs more of you!
Thank you!
Mike
Hello Mike,
The great-looking site you have created here at Wa. The topic is second to none, one I have a great interest in also. I love the way you promoted WA, very clever. Ads are displayed nicely, and so is the layout of your site. The only advice I have to learn about websites is that content is key, but when you use Jaaxy to find low competition keywords, it increases the odds for a SERP.
The only thing I can offer is to keep doing what you are doing. Before you know it, good positive results will happen.
Regards,
Joseph
Thanks for your comment.
Glad you like the website, although it still needs some work 🙂
Wishing you all the best
Mike
I would like to make it clear that I am a premium member at Wealthy Affiliate. And trust me, my experience has been fantastic. There are free trainings on how can startup and run a website while making income from it, and much. Then the free website package is also top notch. I’d advise anyone who is a beginner in affiliate marketing to join Wealthy Affiliate. There is a free starter membership that still allow members to enjoy some of these benefits.
Hey Nelson,
That is exactly right.
Thanks a lot, for leaving the comment.
Cheers
Mike
It’s good to read about this review of Wealthy affiliate, many people are always asking the ultimate question if whether WA us a scam or a platform they can actually benefit from, this article has done justice to the question and I believe it isn’t a scam because I’ve been a part of it. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for your comment.
Absolutely, Wealthy Affiliate is one of the best educational platforms on the market these days.
Sure it is not perfect and it might not suit all people, but what does, right?
In other words, nothing is perfect.
Cheers
Mike
Thank you for this review, I am a member of wealthy affiliate and I like the way you approached the topic at hand. The package on the platform wealthy affiliate far outways the price. As such it is not a scam. Talking about the training, the training is fully packed with enough materials, and i agree with you the free training is just for seven days and the information in the free training is good and comprehensive. That the platform teaches basic SEO, I think with this basic I was able to rank 2 articles on my website to page 1 of both Google and bing within 2 months with no experience.
Hey there and thanks for your comment.
Congratulations on your performance.
Keep up the great work.
The more content you get there the more visitors you will have.
Wishing you lots of success
Cheers
Mike
That is the most thorough review of WA I’ve ever seen. I especially like the screenshots showing how WA would actually look. I personally are building a website targeted to promote WA. I wrote a review for WA, but I think it sucks. Your review just gave me a bunch of new ideas to refine that post and create more better ones. However, I still have to say that your analysis and description can’t be more comprehensive and informative, just like how you said the training here. There’s only one question I have to ask: about the success story part, you say by clicking the images I can go directly to WA’s platform, but there is no links when mousing over those pictures. Is there an error?
I am glad you like the review.
It is always good to find inspiration. I am personally not completely satisfied with my review either, but there is always something that can be improved.
That applies to every walk of life.
Oh – glad you have spotted that error.
I removed the links but did not update the text.
Now it should be fixed.
Thanks a lot for your comment
Wishing you lots of success
Mike
Hello there!
That is a very unique and amazing review. I completely support your take on the subject because I have seen so many reasons to believe that wealthy affiliate is not a scam. It is even a platform that can help anyone build a life changing career and keep enjoying from it. Their training programs are super amazing as well and very helpful.
Thanks
I agree with you.
There are many people who have built their online businesses without prior experience.
WA offers a thorough training that is very well explained.
Thank you for stopping by and leaving the comment
Wishing you all the best
Cheers
Mike
Wow so from what I can read here, wealthy affiliate seems like a legitimate platform where we can make a lot happen all with some dedication, time and effort. This is certainly a platform I want to get into and use and it seems that the platform is actually more trustworthy than others that I’ve seen. I think I will be checking out! Thank you so much for providing this for us! May the force be with you on your journey
That is right.
The Wealthy Affiliate is a great platform where one can learn how to monetize the website, without prior experience.
Sure it takes a bit of effort and time and eventually, the earning potential is unlimited.
What is most important when it comes to building a business online is thinking in terms of 3 to 5 years.
And regarding the platform – I remember when I first stumbled upon Wealthy Affiliate – I did hesitate and was not sure whether this was a real deal or not.
As I explored the platform I realize that this is the one I want to take advantage of.
In case you have further questions, let me know
Cheers,
Mike
hey there, thank you for sharing this here, I wonder why anyone would think wealthy affiliate is a scam, I have been on the platform for some couple of months now and I must say it is really worth it, I just upgraded to premium and I’m not regretting it one bit. The platform is a very nice way to earn and it is also very cost effective
Congratulations on becoming Premium!
Yes, the WA offers a lot of training for a very good price.
Thanks for your comment
Cheers
Mike
Although I haven’t been on the Wealthy Affiliate platform for too long, I can still day with all honesty and facts that Wealthy Affiliate is not a scam. Everything is as advertised. There is even a free membership that gives the chance of going through the platform for some days before deciding on upgrading to the premium or premium plus membership. Isn’t it great?
That is right.
I remember when I joined the WA, I was glad that everything was as advertised – exactly like you are saying.
Also, you correctly point out that the free membership is a great way on how to test the platform.
Thanks a lot for your comment
Mike
Mike nicely done!, You have said it all. This really is a very detailed review, can only imagine the work you put in. I back all you have said a 100%. Wealthy affiliate has made and is making many top affiliate marketers. With its great varieties of tools, training, courses, not to mention the supportive community there to help you out with anything you need.
Thanks a lot for your comment.
Really appreciate it.
Mike
I am glad that I came to your site. I have been receiving offers to join Wealthy Affiliate. Specially this Black Friday. And I am considering it, but I wanted to make sure it’s not a scam. I had heard the training was disorganized and I see that it depends on how we view things. It could be a personal opinion but through your post I see they make an effort to keep it organized.
That is right.
There is a lot of training and with such amount, it may seem that it is disorganized.
I mean I personally did not find it that way, but I understand that for some people it may appear so.
However, there is a walk-through video available and I believe that everyone can navigate easily within the training in a very short period of time.
Thank you for your comment
I appreciate it
Cheers,
Mike
I will admit I was skeptical when I first signed up with WA. But it has been 4 months and things are starting to move. I’m enjoying the training videos and am amazed with the 24/7 support team. It is the best decision I’ve made and am looking forward to reaching my financial goals and becoming independent.
Yes, the support is great
I had some issues, but it was solved literally within minutes.
Wishing you a lot of success on your journey!
Cheers
Mike
Great review Mike,
To be honest, I was one of those people who thought WA was a scam too so I decided to join and curiosity brought me here and I ended up earning enough to maintain my membership into a yearly thing. The lessons are amazing as always but I think the main reason for my website success is the community who has always been there especially the tips they share when they were first starting out.
Guidance is important in any Online Business and I’d definitely recommend WA for those serious about building an income online 🙂
Thank you!
Good for you that you have started earning online, already.
You are absolutely right about the community. Just recently I had some issues with one company, so I went ahead and asked the community about their opinion.
Then based on their advice I proceeded accordingly and the issue is now solved 🙂
Great Platform, I agree.
Mike
What can I say to wealthy affiliate, thank you so much for making such useful information reach me and I’m really happy that I came across such an opportunity of a lifetime, for those out there who are still contemplating Wealthy affiliate is a good platform that I’ve known for a little while now and I’ve read a lot for reviews about it’s legitimacy and how it’s been helping people, so I know wealthy affiliate is not a scam.
I can only say, you don’t need so much words to convince you, all you need to is just check out the website as the abundant opportunities open for you.
thanks a lot for your comment.
As you say – anyone interested in how to make money online, check the WA website/platform for free, and form your own opinion.
Cheers
Mike
Hello Mike,
I have to say, you make some really compelling points. It is absolutely true that the difference between those who succeed online and those who fail are actually a handful. Support is vital because times would surely arise when you’ll need it but if it is not available, it is easy to get frustrated which results in throwing in the towel. Tools too are just as important. I guess that’s one area where wealthy affiliate comes really handy, especially for beginners. This is really informative. Thanks for sharing.
You are exaclty right – I remember a number of cases when I wanted to quit, but thanks to the support and the community within the WA I was able to get back on track.
And as of this writing, I can announce major changes within the Wealthy Affiliate.
“Something BIG is Coming! “
Thank you for your comment
Mike
I have been using wealthy affiliate for sometime now and I must tell you that it’s the best around……as they are menay website like this but no of them is as beginner friendly as this one…I would advise anyone going into affiliate marketing to start up with wealthy affiliate.thanks for this awesome article
Thank you for your comment.
I agree – WA is great for beginners.
Glad you like the article.
Cheers,
Mike
Wealthy affiliate has been around for over 15 years and there is no doubt as to the positive impact that this platform has had on a lot of people including myself. the support system is also awesome as there is a step by step guide to every thing. thank you for this review that you have given.
Glad you like it.
Yes, I agree with you.
I am not saying that this is the perfect platform for all and therefore there is the possibility to test it out for free for an entire week.
This option makes it unique, IMHO.
Cheers,
Mike
This is nice article, very comprehensive and informative especially to beginners in affiliate marketing, after being a member of wealthy affiliate, i can boldly say that wealthy affiliate is not a scam, it is a great affiliate marketing where one can learn and also earn, Sign up is free and you will have lots of training, i really enjoy the site especially now during this pandemic, i spend lots of hours on it, and i have recommended it to most of my friends and they are giving their testimonies, i also agree with you that wealthy affiliate is the best educational platform there is..Thanks for the information.
thanks for your support.
You are right, Wealthy Affiliate is not a scam at all.
Glad you recommended it to others, I am sure more people will learn what it really takes to make money online.
Cheers,
Mike
Wow your review is so accurate . It is very hard to write about WA when your in it
and also to be objective . I just guessing that you got lots of referral from that particular review
i would love to do some work on my articles . Learning from yours a lot .
and i think i am going to follow you .
I try to do my best when it comes to the Wealthy Affiliate review. Wanted to include also the negatives as we know that there is no such thing as “the perfect platform”.
Thanks a lot for your thoughts – feel free to share the article.
Mike
I have been an affiliate marketer with Wealthy Affiliate for a little over 4 years. In all that time, I have not seen such a comprehensive approach to discussing WA and its benefits. I particularly appreciate how you addressed negative comments about WA that can be found online. For those who are looking for a “get rich quick” program, I am sure WA can be a disappointment. But, you are correct, the basic training is great and the in-depth training by experts is there if people choose to take advantage of it. I hope your article answers questions for a lot of people deciding about WA and that they try the free program through your site.
I appreciate your comment.
Yes, I wanted to point out that no platform is perfect by at the same time it is essential to see the value, and not criticizing something for no real reason.
It is definitely not a get-rich-quick program.
I believe everyone reading this realizes that the first $1 made online takes at least 4 to 6 months.
Even people earning on YouTube have to upload at least 30 to 40 videos to see some traction.
Most of them even more – that is called content.
And it does not matter whether one creates a blog or YouTube channel -> the content is essential.
That attracts people and people are the only species who can exchange the money for the value (or another way around).
No bots, no automated emails…
Thanks for your support
Mike
This is a good article, it contains very useful information and I’m really happy to have come across it. Wealthy affiliate is a good platform that I’ve known for a while now and I’ve read a lot for reviews about it’s legitimacy and how it’s been helping people, so I know wealthy affiliate is not a scam.
Absolutely. It is a great educational platform – especially for beginners.
Glad you have shared your opinion about Wealthy Affiliate.
I have to say sir this was a GREAT article. I am a huge fan of wealthy affiliate and you actually enlightened me to more features than I knew they had. So much so I bookmarked your blog as a reference for myself going forward. I liked your website building pop-up I thought it was a great idea. I’m wondering how much success you’ve had with that method? I’d be interested in hearing about it.
It is all about the traffic.
In my experience, once I reached 1,000 visitors per day I had approximately 1 subscriber per day.
But the traffic fluctuates and thus the subscribers.
It also depends, on the actually pop up (what you have to offer) and of course on the niche as well.
To be honest, I am not quite satisfied with the pop-up and I need to elaborate on this one.
Should you have any more questions feel free to ask.
I totally agree that Wealthy Affiliate greatest item is the fact of being able to interact with such a large available community. When you become a member, there always a member available to discuss anything with on chat.
The structure of the program is well set. I can see that it took years to put together such a program where every lesson is in a specific order for a reason. I did take SEO lessons before and it is not easy task. their partnership with Jaaxy is worth so much.
WA is for sure not a scam. It is a community that want to help each other succeed.
Thank you for your comment.
The Wealthy Affiliate platform is truly the best one for newbies and also for intermediates marketers.
All the SEO stuff is very well explained, within the core training, classrooms, or in my favorites Live Events. These are recorded webinars.
Hello there! this is an amazing review you have got here. I am sure the quality information in this post will be of great benefit to anyone who come across it especially newbies who wishes to sign up for wealthy affiliate.
For me, I am a witness to the fact that wealthy affiliate is 100 percent genuine and reliable for any learning affiliate marketing.
Thanks!
Absolutely.
It is a great platform that teaches newbies how to establish a business online.
Is it perfect? Not at all – but I have not found a better platform for people who want to learn how to build and monetize a website.
Thanks for your comment
Mike
I read every word of your review and I completely agree with what you said. WA can’t be a scam because you can go on there for free and try the training to see if you like it. If not you leave, if so you can stay. That’s how confident they are in what they have, they don’t have to scam you to get you in. I pay monthly so there is no commitment beyond that. Other programs that I checked out that I won’t name required a large investment up front and I really was not comfortable with that. There is absolutely no pressure within Wealthy Affiliate. Your review is thorough and it’s accurate.
Thanks, Alison for stopping by and leaving the comment.
That is right – Wealthy Affiliate offers this unique opportunity for everyone to test the platform for free.
In case someone doesn’t like it, he or she can simply leave.
No risk involved, whatsoever.
Cheers,
Mike
Definitely wealthy affiliate is one of the best platforms out there I have been using them for a very long time and I must say they have been superb. Wealthy affiliate offers the cheapest website hosting I have seen in a while as with them one can host up to 20 website for just a simple monthly fee of 50usd and they has the best affiliate market training bootcamp.
I agree.
As you say, for the price one gets plenty of training. The platform is great for newbies and also for intermediate marketers.
Besides, everyone can get started for Free – there is no credit card information needed.
The free membership lasts 7 days. That is enough time to make a decision whether to upgrade to Premium or just keep the basic membership for free (after the week, a lot of features will be locked though).
Thanks a lot for your comment.
Wishing you all the best
Mike
I really like the informative article. Most of the time this is the problem. People want to go to heaven, but they don’t want to die. Wealthy affiliate has lots of different advantages once you apply yourself just like anything else. I thought the article was unbias as possible making it a great source for joining wealthy affiliate.
Right On!
I don’t want to give people false promises – I want to show them what is the Wealthy Affiliate really about.
They should be informed about the platform, how it works, and whether it is something they want to try.
I am sure most of us are fed up by scams and misleading digital courses that over promise and under deliver.
Thank you for your comment!
Really appreciate it
Mike
This is an excellent review, I have heard nothing but positives about Wealthy Affiliate (including from friends that are part of it). I did want to do my due diligence before joining though and you have provided a lot of great insights here.
I am officially ready and very excited to join!!
Thank Jean.
You are welcome to join and see the platform for yourself.
If you have any questions let me know.
Glad you have enjoyed the review.
See you inside 🙂
Mike
Mike, I think this is one of the most detailed reviews of the Wealthy Affiliate opportunity I have ever read, and I make a point to read every review of this platform that I come across. Not because I am trying to decide if I want to join, but just to make sure I have not overlooked some benefit that is offered in this program. Unfortunately, I often find that whoever wrote the review has found some ways to use and grow their business that never occurred to me! This is so frustrating! I think I know all that is going on here, and sure enough, I don’t!
With the information in the training, we have available to us, and the updates that let us know what and how to use the latest that is going on online. That alone is worth the monthly fee. Kind of like insurance so that we can be ready for changes as they come. As we all figure out how we want our business’ to develop and grow, we also find out a lot about our fellow members and realise that we all struggle. That we all have similar goals, and we are all guilty of making mistakes. However within our network, they can be corrected, and often the outcome is better than the original. Thank you for sharing your opinions, suggestions and ideas within this learning platform.
Thank you for the thorough comment.
Really appreciate it.
You are making a good point, that probably not many people realize – we all struggle. But that is part of every walk of life whether you work for someone or you manage your own business.
The same applies to the mistakes we make.
Sure we do mistakes – it is also called a learning process.
We are part of the platform where people do help each other, so you are not alone when it comes to building the business online.
Thanks again.
Mike
It has been more than a year since I started to search for some platform where I can learn from scratch how to create a website that will rank well in google.
Unfortunately, most of the courses I found are very expensive and the quality they deliver is questionable in my opinion.
Wealthy Affiliate offers a free trial which I am about to try. But just from this Wealthy Affiliate review, it seems to me that this is the exact platform I was looking for.
Great training, a lot of video courses, and $49 per month is a great deal. Although I think more about the yearly payment.
One thing I still have in my mind – is there any additional cost or upsells?
Hello and thanks a lot for your comment.
Regarding your questions – There are no additional costs for training.
But I believe you will want to purchase your own domain and the price is about $15 per year within the Wealthy Affiliate.
But if you decide to go yearly ($495 per year), you get one .com domain for free.
In case you have more questions let me know
Mike
Hey Mike,
Great looking website, very informative review about Wealthy Affiliate. You’ve provided visitors to your site with honest info and examples of why WA is one of the best platforms for online business owners. I really like your writing style.
Two years ago, after a lot of thought, I decided it was time to start an online business. In the beginning it was just to supplement my income… But because I work 50+ hours a week at my job, finding the time to spend hours perusing the internet for the right help was difficult to say the least. And where to begin??? There are thousands of “you can make big money now online opportunities”–as you well know–so, which, if any, were going to be right for me? I didn’t know where to begin, but the desire to have my own website kept pushing me to watch for the right opportunity.
I remember several months later, receiving a notice about Wealthy Affiliate and thinking 7 days for free was plenty of time for me to check out the training and make my decision to continue or not. I proceeded with caution though, due to many other “free” offers. It seems there is always a hidden fee. But with WA, I was pleasantly surprised! I got my 7 days for free. And I got so much more!
The training was clear and easy to follow. I was able to build my own website! The WA community impressed me. I had always figured this business to be cutthoat–you know, every man or woman out for themselves. But people were friendly, down to earth and genuinely wanted to help me when I had questions. I was encouraged to succeed! I was welcomed by founders/owners Kyle and Carson. Another member reached out to me via email each month to check on my progress, offer suggestions, remind me he was available to answer any questions. I felt comfortable and capable.
I joined the WA family and the resources have made all the difference to me and my business.
Is it perfect? No, of course not. Nothing is. But it’s the best platform for me!
Thanks for your review and keep them coming–I’ve bookmarked your site,
Tamara
Glad you like the review. I did my best to remain unbiased.
Regarding the WA community – I agree with you 100%!
I was impressed, big time.
Thank you, Tamara, for sharing your thoughts. I am sure more people will at least test it out for free, so they can form their own opinion.
As you say 7 days is plenty of time.
Wishing you all the best
cheers
Mike
Thank you for one more very helpful and deep review of Wealthy Affiliate. As more those reviews as better, because the platform is so awesome, that it needs just regular promotion. I like you mentioned the community and the training, because those tools are indeed one of the strongest reasons, why to choose this platform. Always helpful people around, training explaining the fundamental basics needed to get started and as well owners, easy to be reach.( not sure if there si platform you have this option). Perfect written, I am going to follow your web closely! Cheers.
I agree the Wealthy Affiliate platform is still the best educational platform.
When I first started in 2017, I was truly amazed by the support I got.
The key is to help each other and especially beginners.
It is important that a newbie feels like at home so to speak. And every person who is serious about creating a business online should at least test this platform out.
There is absolutely no risk involved since everyone can sign up just via email. That way, one gets a 7-days free trial, or Starter Membership as we call it.
Thanks for your comment.
I have been thinking of starting my own affiliate site online but wasn’t sure where to go for training. Wealthy Affiliate seems to have a lot to offer, would I have a personal coach in there? I just don’t want to be left floundering on my own with no direction.
Hello Eric,
I remember in 2016 and 2017 I also wanted to have my website – actually I wanted to learn how to create a website, but could not figure out how.
Wanted to follow some comprehensive training, but could not find one until Nov/2017.
At that time I already made my mind – I was willing to pay for the training, so I did join Wealthy Affiliate.
I was truly amazed by the community, I mean the WA members were so helpful that I really felt good right from the Day 1.
So having said that, you won’t be left alone. You will have your personal mentor and as I mention other members are ready to help as well.
Even as a Starter Member (meaning you can take 10 lessons for free without showing your Credit Card) you will receive welcome messages from other members offering help.
The best thing would be to test it out.
Let me know if you have any other questions
Mike
I have read much about Wealthy Affiliate online! They seem to be among the best places to join and build a website.
The 7 day free trial is plenty of time to decide if you want to buy the premium plan, and the yearly fee is reasonable for everything that is included. Especially all the training included by experts.
I have read this is the best place for a beginner to learn because of all the training? Do you agree with that statement?
You are right.
Wealthy Affiliate is so far the best places where one can learn how to start generating revenue online.
Also, the fact that anyone can test it out for free is a pretty unique thing.
The creators know that this system might not be the best for everyone, so that is why there is this 7-day free period to try things out, without using the credit card.
Just by entering the email address, one will create an account and start with the 1st 10 lessons.
Thank you, Justin, for your comment.
I like what I’m reading here. I’ve had experience with mlm and it sucks. But what if I have no clue what niche I want to do or the product? I just want to make money. It’s a little overwhelming.
Any information would be great.
It is normal when it comes to the beginning of the online business.
I also spent several months jumping from one niche to another without any results.
Here is what can help you.
Check this website (Amazon Earth’s biggest selection), and go through the categories.
Choose one category that you are interested in the most and then, go deeper. As an example could be “gaming monitors”
Or you can check kitchen appliances – f.e. “best toasters for 2020”
– something in that manner.
Make sure that you have a genuine interest in that niche/category.
I know it could be a bit overwhelming.
The most important thing is to get started. To have a vision or goal and start creating the content.
You can take a look at the training as well – take advantage of a 7-days free trial and see how you will like it.
Hope it helps a bit
cheers, Mike
Hello there! This is an awesome review of wealthy affiliate, your review is very thorough!
I just joined the “wealthy affiliate” and with review I believe am on the right track!
I will consider owning a website in wealthy affiliate and also enjoy all the benefits that comes with it!
Thanks so much for sharing, it was really helpful!
Hi there,
thank you for your comment. Appreciate it.
There is a tool within the Wealthy Affiliate platform where you can create a website, within a minute or so.
The hosting is one of the best as well, so you won’t regret it.
Great article and very in-depth! I’ve dabbled in other platforms and they really don’t match up to what Wealthy Affiliate offers. I really do love how you can become a SME in website design and building with a matter of days with Wealthy Affiliate’s boot camp. You really do address some of the pain points I had when I started with WA as well such as ranking. Keep up the encouragement friend!
Glad you like it, Catherine,
I have had experience with other platforms as well, but they either don’t deliver enough information or it is just a one-time course (lasts few weeks) and that was not what I was looking for.
So I agree with you, Wealthy Affiliate does offer a plethora of training.
Thank you for comment,
Wishing you all the best
Mike
Is there any page or application recommended to earn some money ?, I see from a lot that almost all are scam
Hello,
Yes, there are a lot of scams out there, unfortunately.
If you looking for websites where you can earn a few bucks I can recommend you following:
https://www.surveyjunkie.com/
or
https://www.swagbucks.com/
These 2 are legit websites, but the earning potential is low (maybe a $100 to $200 months).
If you want to earn a full-time income, you must realize that it takes time. Probably a half a year to year until you see a consistent income.
I would recommend you to take advantage of this free training (I have described in the article above).
You don’t need a credit card. Just enter your email address and you will get a message from me.
You have 7 days to go through the 10 lessons.
That will give you an overview of what it takes to build a business.
After these 7 days, so you can keep your account – you don’t have to upgrade to premium if you don’t have a budget.
If you looking for an online job, you can also check the following website:
https://www.fiverr.com/
or
Upwork
If you have questions let me know,
Good luck
Mike
Hi,
This is a great review of Wealthy Affiliate. I have been a member since March 2019 and I agree that the online community is very helpful and supportive. It’s unlike anything I’ve ever seen before. I also agree with your opinion about the training. It is certainly comprehensive. I knew nothing about SEO, website building, WordPress back dashboard, keywords, etc a little over a year ago. Wealthy Affiliate’s training has made all that clear to me. I have learned so much over the last year.
Jay’s webinars are awesome. He does it all so naturally, and he is full of knowledge. I always learn a lot when I watch Jay’s webinars. I can’t always be there in the live training, so I am glad that we can watch the replays 🙂
Regarding the cons, I don’t think that the training is disorganized. On the contrary, I think it is very well organized. However, some videos may be a little outdated, for example the one about Google Analytics. Google Analytics has changed, so perhaps that video training could be updated, but even so, I still learned all I needed to know about Google Analytics.
Some of the testimonials you share I have actually read them on the WA platform. 🙂 They are inspiring!
Great post, very thorough!
Awesome!
SEO is actually not that difficult and it certainly has nothing to do with the coding or some “magic stuff”.
I am not saying that it is easy, but with proper training, one starts to understand what has to be done, how it has to be done and it starts to make sense.
As for Jay’s webinar – I couldn’t agree more with you.
Solely having access to those webinars is priceless. Currently, there are 4 webinars dedicated to Pinterest marketing, and I had no idea how powerful this truly is
Some people may see training a bit disorganized at first sight, but after several minutes, the platform starts to make sense.
I recommend people to check the platform walk-through video so they get familiarized with it.
And yes, some training or video-tutorials were taken a few years ago and systems like Google Analytics or Bing (Microsoft) Advertising have been updated since then.
thank you for your comment,
Mike
Very thorough and informative web post. Thanks for all the time and effort you put into it.
What Wealthy Affiliate offers is truly amazing. For what you pay for it, they offer you a lot. You have friendly, helpful people right at your finger tips to answer your questions and give assistance with website support. I feel relatively new here. I have learned much. There is still very much I have to learn about online marketing. Things change quickly online, but Wealthy Affiliate does try to keep up with it all.
Thanks again for the information.
Glad you like it, Carolyn.
I did not realize the importance of such a helpful community, prior to joining the Wealthy Affiliate.
Being helpful to newcomers and learning from more experienced marketers is a great combination of how to progress.
Learning is a continuous process, regardless of the success level.
Just recently I have watched an interview with an 81-year-old Jazz trumpeter – He says, that he practices every day. Every day he learns something new.
With online marketing, there is still something new we can learn and apply. Wealthy Affiliate community has reached 2 mil members.
There are thousands of them, we can learn from – besides the core training of course.
Wishing you lot of success
Mike
It’s incredible how much information there is in there. Thanks for sharing, as it is free to try I just joined the platform to be really surplice by how big an active this community is. Everything you’ve mentioned is accurate.
I like the fact that you’re not trying to sell yourself as a big guru, as well as the fact of getting a free trial version so you could take a look and see what happen while enabling and empowering you to fulfill your dreams. Each lesson has clearly definned actionable tasks associated with it. If you’re willing to learn and work on building your future generating an income over the internet, I don’t know about a better place.
PD: Quite newbie friendly too!
It is true – the community is very active. I am not that much active on the chat, but I see there are people all the time ( 24/7), and not always they talk about internet marketing 😉
But seriously;
Everyone can test it out and see how it works for him or her.
You said it exactly right – one must be willing to learn and work.
Thanks a lot for your comment
Mike
Great post Mike I love how much detail you put into your review. I am also a member of about 3 months and I agree with you about the value they offer.
Thanks for the in depth article
Thanks a lot for your comment.
Yes, training is really valuable.
I have seen many courses teaching only a portion of what is inside Wealthy Affiliate, for $997 or even more.
I can recommend it to anyone who would like to learn more about affiliate marketing.
Only the 7-day free trial has value.
There is nothing to lose, it is possible to test it out and then make a decision.
Hello Mike, I decided to join the Wealthy Affiliate community primarily because I wanted to learn how to write articles effectively and I hope I succeeded in that after 2 years of being their member. I wanted to ask you what is your experience with their hosting? I saw many folks move to Hostgator or Bluehost, I did not have any problems with it so far.
Hello Danijel,
Good for you. I believe you have learned a lot.
Besides the core training, there are many mini-course made by experienced members and many of them are focused exactly on how to write an article.
I personally can’t compare WA hosting with Hostgator or Bluehost. I don’t have a personal experience with particular these two. (before joining the WA I used to have other companies where I hosted my website(s))
Regarding Wealthy Affiliate hosting, I have not had any issues so far.
And as far as I know, WA has been recognized as leaders in the hosting by the Canadian government.
Kyle has mentioned that in his Blog on the 14th WA anniversary. (here is the link to the post)
So, yes – I am happy with the WA hosting.
than you for your comment,
Cheers, Mike
Excellent post easy to read and very specific about what WA has to offer, I will definitely read more articles from you to look at some guidance on how to write better articles.
Have you seen important results in WA and how long does it take?
Thanks again for this great article.
I wish you success!
Manuel.
Thank you for your comment,
regarding my results, I must point out that I spent almost the entire 2018 by chasing 3 different niches.
I was not able to decide until like December 2018 when I was reading my goals for 2018.
Almost none of them I have reached.
So I said to myself – regardless of the niche, I am going to stick with one niche/website, no matter what.
In February (in less than 3 months I made my decision) I have noticed the first sale. It went from the ClickBank. I was so happy about that, but not for a long. Soon after I realized that there are 60 days money-back guarantee, and the person who bought it thorough my website, actually asked for a refund.
But it gave me confidence that this thing works.
Then a few months later I have made my first real sale. Traffic to my website has been growing since February so it is great to know that the training works.
It must work – I am being taught what really works; like SEO and using also social media as well.
It is a lot to cover, so I would suggest to check out the free training the WA offers.
I really enjoyed reading your in-depth overview on Wealthy Affiliate. Affiliate marketing can be overwhelming due to all the information one has to learn, not to mention the scams and things like shiny object syndrome. With that being said I find that Wealthy Affiliate helps cut through the noise providing the most direct route to being successful in affiliate marketing.
Thanks a lot for our comment, Pamela.
I do know what you talking about. I used to struggle to find a legit platform. I remember how frustrated I was when I was watching again a hyped-up sales video promising to earn $1,000 a day with just 10 minutes of work.
Wealthy Affiliate is a real deal. I know that it may sound biased since I am a member, but everyone can test it out for free.
7 Days of free training should be long enough to determine whether to take full advantage of this system or not.
The only additional fee one might pay is for a domain, and that is about $15 per year.
If signed up yearly, for a little over $30 a month, it is possible to build and run an online business.
Hi,
I like your review of Wealthy Affiliate and as a member myself I have to agree that the online community is indeed wonderful and always very helpful. It is something I have never seen anywhere else online. The training is excellent, and I love Jay’s weekly seminars, I have learned so much from them! And Jay explains things very well.
I remember when I first started, how nervous I was about building my website and then how proud I was when I had finally set it up, and how proud I was once more when I had published my first content. The training helps you along and makes every step easy.
I became a premium member only a week after I signed up. And I am so glad I did. Wealthy Affiliate is one of the best decisions in my life and I recommend this platform to anyone who is serious about building an income online. The testimonials speak for themselves. 🙂
I couldn’t agree with you more.
The training is great and it works.
As you say it is exciting to see how the website grows. And the 1st time when you see your website on the 1st page of Google – that feeling is just awesome 🙂
Thank you for your comment.
Wishing you a lot of success
Mike
I don’t know much English (with a translator) can I learn with Wealthy Affiliate
Hello,
Wealthy Affiliate is a platform teaching affiliate marketing in English.
Although, there are many members who are not native English speakers, including myself.
However, if you understand, you can learn a lot. In fact, there are many tools for translating the text.
Video training is in many cases self-explanatory.
I would suggest you to sign-up for a Starter Membership, which is FREE (No credit card required)
And you can build up your website in your own language. You can target only the audience speaking your own language.
If you have any questions let me know
Cheers,
Mike
Hey Mike,
I enjoyed your post on Wealthy Affiliate. It’s nice to have someone out there telling the public how these products work!
I’ve been looking for some affiliate training programs and I’m having a hard time deciding which one to go for. Have you heard of any of these other ones? https://cutt.ly/ce6cl7l I’m just looking for some opinions before I make my decision.
I love the content you’ve been posting, by the way. Keep up the great work!
Hello,
I am glad you like the post.
Thank you for your question
I actually do know most of the affiliate programs from that list.
But these 2 I am not familiar with, yet: Affilorama and Income School
From what I have found out, Affilorama is quite good. They now have also a free trial.
Income School – Not bad either – although the price is $449 – and that is quite a lot.
Here are my thoughts on the rest of the affiliate programs:
Wealthy Affiliate:
This is, in my opinion, the #1 Program. I have been a member of WA since November 2017, and I have not stopped learning ?
(The price is $360 per year). They offer a FREE Trial – no credit card required, so everyone can try it out.
ClickBank University – They have too many upsells for me and they don’t teach how to get a free (organic) traffic
Super Affiliate System – This is John Crestani’s product. He does have a decent program, although it is a high ticket (The price is a little less than $1,000). But He will show how to get $800 credit for the Ads.
Commission Hero – This is again a high ticket program. The cost is $997 and additional costs for ads are also required.
12-Minute Affiliate – In my opinion, this is the worst out of those 7. Also too many upsell (up to $800). They recommend to buy the Solo Ads, but this can be tricky especially for beginners.
Hope this helps you to decide.
(I have left links to some of the reviews so you can have a look there as well)
If you need anything else, let me know
Cheers ?
Mike
It is always amazing to see people talking about wealthy affiliate. I have joined the community a month ago, but there’s always that feeling of happiness any time I learn something new, and I learn a lot of them on a daily basis. It is beyond any doubt that wealthy affiliate is the Best affiliate marketing training in the world. And I hope many people will join after reading your review
I do agree with you.
There is plenty of resources within Wealthy Affiliate where one can learn new stuff.
For example when it comes to logo creation – I always thought I needed photoshop or some software to buy.
But I learned that there are stuff for FREE where you can get ideas and create a nice, professional-looking logo.
Canva is one of the software I use vert often (all my featured images are created in Canva).
In my opinion, WA is also one of the best (if not THE BEST) affiliate marketing training in the world.
Anyone can join and try it out and after that, he or she is welcome to prove me wrong 🙂
Cheers
Hi Mike,
I think you gave an excellent overview of Wealthy Affiliate. I’m a member since 2017. I greatly appreciate that you put the community first – it’s truly awesome. Not only I have all my questions answered by the community experts, receive all the support I need, but I also made many friends around the world.
I agree that the Free Membership option is a great way to explore the platform and feel the friendly and supportive atmosphere through personal experience. Though, Premium Membership is needed to become an expert.
Also, by including such an advanced keyword research tool as Jaaxy is in the Premium Membership at no additional price, Wealthy Affiliate stands above all competitors in terms of price to value ratio. Jaaxy on its own would cost as much as the whole Premium package within Wealthy Affiliate.
I recommend those of your readers who seriously want to become successful in online business, join WA today for free and upgrade to Premium once they see that the information you provided here is 100% corresponds to the reality. Take advantage of Mike’s bonus, guys – it’s $30 off the first month, more than 60% off!
Mike, thank you for the detailed and unbias information. I wish you and your readers a joyful and successful online journey!
~ Julia
Thank you for your comment Julia,
I have done recently a review of one digital platform which also has great training and a lot of educational material to go through.
But I was very disappointed with the price. They are asking for a couple of thousands of dollars! (they have a variety of products, each has a different price tag)
While doing that reasearch, I just reminded myself, what a great place the WA is.
As you pointed out the Premium membership has everything one needs to become an expert.
Black Friday offer is almost over, but still, $350(as a regular price) per year is a peanut comparing to the amount of training and support one gets.
Well, everyone can get started for free and form his opinion about the platform.
Amazing article! It was so easy reading through it and understanding everything. Articles like this were the ones that brought me to WA in the first place. The community is absolutely amazing! Of course, you need time and dedication for success but having people that encourage and support you, that’s a whole mood booster. Thank you for sharing this article! I truly enjoyed it.
Thanks a lot Stephanie for your comment.
I am glad you like it.
You are absolutely right, I can’t stress enough how the community is helpful. Right at the very first day when I joined the WA, I felt welcomed there.
I was not left alone – and it helped me tremendously.
WOW! What an awesome article that so wonderfully explains the highlights of Wealthy Affiliate. So organized and informative and easy to read. Very rarely have I seen so many actual examples of how much income a person can make a month. I think many of us “newbies” want to ask but many just beat around the bush.
I have been here just over a month building my niche and it takes work for sure. But that is what I am looking for as an extra income as I approach retirement in a few years. Get rich quick usually equates to epic fail in my world. Slow and steady wins the race. Work hard and it would be hard to fail here at Wealthy Affiliate.
Great job.
I think it is essential to show the results of what Wealthy Affiliate students achieve.
I understand that not all people are willing to share their income reports – that is perfectly OK, but fortunately, there are many of them who do not have a problem with that.
Yes, everyone who is about to start asks the same question 🙂 – will it work, how much can I earn?
Regarding the get-rich-quick, you are absolutely right about that. I think the problem is, that most of the people are not patient (it used to be my case as well).
People who are patient and consistent easily earn more than $5,000 a month in their 2nd or 3rd year (some of them are able to make that within 15 months). Once that person is at that level, he knows enough to get to the next level.
At wealthy affiliate, you are not left on your own. There’s always an open avenue for question asking. There is also many opportunities to learn more from the platform through webinar after we might have finished all the courses in Wealthy affiliate. The platform is indeed a great place to invest on. This is a very detailed review with alot of information about wealthy affiliate. Good job.
Hi Stella,
Thank you for your comment. I absolutely agree.
I remember when I started out I was blown away from the support and helpful people around me.
To me, it was a great feeling to know that I am not alone. Really encouraging.
The training is awesome and I do admit – I have not finished it yet 🙂 -> still learning but my website is getting the attention, the number of visitors increases and the best of all this website starts generating revenue.
So it definitely works.
Have a good one 🙂
Cheers, Mike
Thanks for very-detailed, well-written and comprehensive review of wealthy affiliate, its features, fees and much more. I was testing up to 20 different MLM, affiliate and other online money making programs and platforms and wasted almost $500 and worth nothing. I took part also in surveys that took months of my time and only very few bucks. Wealthy affiliate is one of the few platforms for affiliate marketing and making money online that are legit, does not have overestimated promises, has lots of useful or necessary tools and gives all of that on solid price. Thanks for sharing this, people really need information about working ways or programs to make money online.
In my opinion, the MLM hardly work for people. Only people on the top make money.
You obviously have gone through a lot until you find the WA. I think most of us have similar past 🙂
One of the aspects I love about wealthy affiliate is that they don’t give empty promises.
Everyone who is serious about building a business online has a chance to try the training withing WA for free.
I don’t think many programs offer this option. Some courses offer a free webinar but you don’t have a chance to check out the training platform unless you pay.
This is a very informative and thorough wealthy affiliate review, you have done a very good job at informing potential members, as a member myself, I can confirm that everything you have said about wealthy affiliate is absolutely true, it really is a fantastic community and I would wholeheartedly recommend wealthy affiliate to anyone interested in affiliate marketing, it’s free to sign up so there is nothing to lose really, I would encourage anyone to read your review here and join the best affiliate marketing community.
Thanks a lot.
As you say, it is great that everyone can join the platform and test it out for free. I have seen other products/platforms offering a free trial period, but one must use the credit card so he or she is charged after the trial period is over.
With Wealthy Affiliate, there is no need to use the credit card in order to join. Anyone who wants to check out this platform needs an email and that’s it.
When it comes to pricing, in my opinion, it is very cheap considering the other platforms and what they have to offer.
I agree with you – there is nothing to lose,
Cheer, Mike
Wealthy Affiliate was established over a decade ago with the aim of aiding affiliate marketers across various fields. Over the years, the platform had grown rapidly and it now boasts of hundreds of thousands of people across various walks of life with similar goals in mind — to elevate themselves. The training program offered on the Wealthy Affiliate website comes in very handy, whether you are a novice or an expert in the affiliate marketing business.
Thank you for your comment.
The training is very thorough but at the same time, very easy to follow. Besides, you can ask any question to the community as well.
One thing to remember – “there is not such a thing as stupid question” 🙂
You’ve covered some very important topics for people who want to get into affiliate marketing;
-the community
-the training
-the key words
-the success stories
What you say seems clear and we feel reassured not to encounter unpleasant surprises. This is a very interesting article because we feel that you are not trying to rip us off and that we really have a chance of success if we follow your advices.
Thank you.
That is exactly my point – to reveal everything about WA. My intention is to help others to assess right-away whether this platform and community is the right place.
I appreciate your comment.
Interesting! I loved how you shared various members successes as an effort to prove how well people can do with Wealthy Affiliate. The one that really interested me is the Instagram one, mostly because I knew that 5 figures a month is possible with affiliate marketing before this post. But I hadn’t really thought about becoming an Instagram influencer too! That would be pretty cool to help with my blog. Thanks for sharing these successes and your thoughts on this platform!
My pleasure. I am glad you like the post.
Yeah, Instagram can be really powerfull.
I am planning to create a post just about Instagram and how to leverage it. Just can’t find the right time to do it:)
I was looking for some part time online platform to create my own website in my free time apart from my 9 to 5 office job to create some secondary source of income. I am glad that I found Wealthy Affiliate a month back.
The world famous live training, live chat and community help is always there for you whenever you stuck along the way.
I also like the step by step training lessons to help even a novice member to learn and create anything of interest.
It is because of all this learning material available that I soon became premium member of this Wealthy Affiliate. And the best thing is that it provides you a free trial first to decide if you want to go premium later.
This post explains almost everything with images and highlights how Wealthy Affiliate is helping people in their business.
I agree. The community is super cool. Also, the fact that there is always somebody online since there are people from all over the world.
I used to work in an international environment and that was the best part of my previous 9-5 jobs.
With wealthy afiliate I can continue being active within the international community, that is awesome.
I still learn new stuff and I feel like I am able to help more people than let’s say a year ago, or 6 months ago.
Thanks a lot for you comment.
Interesting stuff here as I too have not spoken a whole lot to friends about Wealthy Affiliate as well. With so much emphasis on casting the biggest net we can sometimes forget about those closest around us. That goes for personal social media as well. I agree that Wealthy Affiliate has one of the best online communities out there, and one of the best platforms out there. So I guess the best way to enlighten someone about the platform is to recommend the training. I like the idea of informing people about WA face to face. Wealthy Affiliate is an excellent recommendation for friends and for anyone reading here as well, great post!
Glad you like it.
That is a good idea informing people about WA face to face.
It happens to me though, that many people have no idea what I am talking about 🙂
so I have to switch the “language” start talking on their wavelength 🙂
But that is OK, I believe.
Great thing is that everyone can try out this system absolutely for FREE.
I also recommend spending 20 minutes to watch the walkthrough video by Kyle. It is well explained and gives an overview of what the wealthy affiliate is about.
Hi Mike,
Thanks for this informative article about Wealthy Affiliate Program, it looks so organized and even provides live class every week with Q&A session. Some similar program like this costs a fortune in the real world, but I see the subscription fee for Wealthy Affiliate Program is extremely low! (I did refresh my page twice to see if any price changes…ha!)
And the best part is you could join for a trial to see whether you fit in or not, it’s too good to be true. I cannot wait to join this free trial first and think about the next phase.
I do have a question regarding the Jaaxy is also a part of this Wealthy Affiliate Program too? or it’s something that you found quite helpful for keywords search?
Can’t wait to dive deep in your blog,
Matt
Thank you Matt for your comment.
I also have found similar programs, but the price was 10x more than one would pay for Wealthy Affiliate.
Once you sign up, feel free to contact me within the platform.
You can also raise the question to community.
Jaaxy is part of the Wealthy Affiliate and it is free tool for all Premium Members.
You can also upgrade to Pro or Enterprise to take a full advantage of this powerful tool, but I believe the Lite version (which is FREE) is good enough, even for intermediate marketer.
Let me know if I can be of any help further
Cheers, Mike
Hi Mike,
Awesome review, I really liked the reading!
I am a member of Wealthy Affiliate for over 5 years now and all I can say is that I will never leave this platform. Even after so many years, I still learn new things and most importantly, my online business is growing and this is thanks to Kyle and Carlson and Jay, of course! I never miss Jay’s webinars, they are so useful. Anyway, I wanted to share my experience because it is truly the best place to create a thriving online business and make a living.
How long have you been at Wealthy Affiliate? There are so many members that it’s hard to know everyone:) Anyway, nice to meet you and hope to see around!
thank you Daniella for your comment.
I have been member since November 2017, so not as long as you.
I am glad that your business is growing.
Last year I was not able to concentrate on one niche only and I tried to work on 3 different websites – not a good idea at all 🙂
As I found out, I am not the only one and many people do this mistake (not only WA members).
But also thanks to the community I have started to focus on one niche only and the traffic to my website is constantly growing.
I love the live webinars as well. Due to the different time zone I rarely watch them live, but all of them are recorded which is awesome.
Yes Mike, unlike you, I joined wealthy affiliate about a month ago and I can say it’s been a really great ride. The people in the community are so helpful to people who are just starting out. It’s part time for me for now so I still take training and I know when I kick off my own blog, it’ll be really great. I have checked out all the tools they have available and I’m sure I’m going to enjoy them. I also recommend wealthy affiliate to anyone out there who is looking to start on online business. I understand that it takes alot of work and dedication to reach the peak and I’m ready for that. Overall, this is a great post.
Let me congratulate you 🙂
You made a great decision.
The people in the WA community are really awesome, they are being supportive and not just with the technicalities.
Take the training in your own pace, in case of questions, ask around (or myself).
You also do understand the key principle for the success and that is the effort you need to put in.
Wishing lots of success Henderson.
Hello Mike, such an excellent review you have up here and one that I found interesting. Wealthy Affiliate is a one in a million opportunity for any marketer serious about making money online. The training offered in the university is simply beyond ordinary and I really respect it a lot since even a rookie like me could understand easily. Also, the community, the support and eagerness of virtually everyone on the platform to help. Seriously, WA is just a total package coupled with their Jaaxy for Keywords research and also website hosting.
I couldn’t agree more.
Prior to joining the Wealthy Affiliate I tried to build my own online business. But I did not where to start. Building a website was my 1st step.
Now I realize that even, I would come up with a website back then, I would have no way of knowing what to do in order to rank in google.
What plugins to use, which one not to use. Which theme for WordPress is good .. and so many tiny details.
Thanks to the community all such recommendations I do get for free and within few minutes (or hours in the worst case).
Dear Mike,
This is a very comprehensive and beautifully written article about the Wealthy Affiliate. I am a newbie at Affiliate and I have had no experience with any other Affiliate platforms before, but my friend recommend me this and I have to say and excited. After 2 months I am trying to be more involved in the WA life and it gives me a lot. What I really appreciate is that it provides me with the possibility of having the website under them with all needed plugins and features, which I need to run a successful business. Nothing is without hard work, but I believe WA gives me all the background I need. So, I definitely recommend this platform and thank you for this fantastic post! I am looking forward to another one from you.
Wish you a lot of success!
Bye Renata
I am glad you are happy with the Wealthy Affiliate training.
It is about hard work, but when you are working on a niche you love, it can’t be called work in my opinion 🙂
On top of that, when people see results and direct effect of their effort, it becomes even more exciting.
Wishing you lots of success,
Cheers, Mike
Hi Mike.
Wow, I don’t know where to begin.
You provide so much information about this platform and its benefits, that I feel compelled to look into it further.
Is there a contract to sign and if so, how does it work?
Can I join anytime? What happens if I join for a month and I want my money back, can I get a refund?
I’ve been ripped off once, by get-rich-quick guys, so I am more than cautious about these programs.
They kept upselling all types of upgrades and such, to further my training. In the end, I couldn’t afford it anymore so I quit their program.
Paul
Thank you Paul,
There is no contract to sign.
If you wish the check out the platform on your own, you can do so. First seven days are for FREE (no credit card required).
After the week, you can still keep your WA account, but the training will get locked.
The founders wanted to make it available for everybody, nevertheless it requires time and lots of effort to build such platform as Wealthy Affiliate and keep it updated.
So no wonder that the premium is a paid membership. But the first months you get 50% OFF, which is a great deal. After that the cost is something like a $1 a day (if paid yearly).
With that being said, there is no refund. But the first week is long enough period to explore the platform and decide whether it suits you.
You can cancel the membership at any time, though.
Wealthy Affiliate is definitely NOT get-rich-quick scheme. You are taught how to truly build up an online business and that requires bit of time. Your headquarters is your website and you will learn how to create a content which attracts people. Besides that this training will show you how to outrank the competition in compliance with white hat SEO of course.
There are no more uspells within the WA. Once you pay the Premium membership you have access to entire platform, even the Jaaxy keyword research tool (it used to be extra, but it is embedded now or no additional cost).
The only payment you might to add up, is the fee for web hosting. That is $15 a year.
Feel free to contact me, if you wish more information.
Cheers, Mike
Hi Mike
I enjoyed reading your post, and you are right there so many money-making scams out there it’s easy to be skeptical of Wealthy Affiliate. The WA community is just icing on the cake. Thy are just so helpful to anyone in the community.
You gave the reader a lot of good information. If you’re not a member of Wealthy Affiliate what are you waiting for it will be the best decision you ever make concerning online education. No scams here baby. Wonderful post Mike.
Much Success
Eric
I can honestly say without exaggeration that for me without the WA community and the training inside, I would be still wandering from course to course and I would not be able to build my own website/online business.
As I mentioned in my post, I love the video training. It is literally watching Jay “over the shoulder” how he does things. To me tiny details, like how to structure the folders on my computer while creating post were very important.
Thank you Eric for your comment
Wealthy Affiliate is about hard work and dedication to the program and to your website’s. There is a whole community of members that help you where they can in your time of need. Wealthy Affiliate is actually about the community and how it has grown into a family over the years.
Great and step by step training is provided that is easy to follow. No one can go wrong with the training provided. This is about how people create their own training as well on the platform to earn extra money. Whichever training you create and there is activity where people like or comment, you will get money from Wealthy Affiliate for this because you are helping your fellow members.
This is an amazing program to be in and I wish others are lucky enough to find this program.
Thank you for covering this topic and all the best to you.
That is exactly right. It is about hard work.
Besides, the community is awesome as you say. It is helpful when you need advise regarding some technicalities or when you temporary feel down.
Let’s be honest. Sometimes we all feel down, but the important thing is to get up and keep going.
You gain better perspective since you see the opinion of others – that I find very helpful. In another words you learn how think “out of the box”.
Thank you for the comment,
I appreciate that.
Mike, I have been a member of Wealthy Affiliate since November 2016. Although I have never tried to build a website using WIX, I agree with everything else that you say. Wealthy Affiliate’s training will work IF people actually do what Kyle teaches.
Too often many people, like myself, decide to ignore some of the training. For example, I decided to start a bunch of websites instead of focusing on one. I didn’t to get site feedback because I was “shy.” Plus, I did not write reviews like Kyle suggested. So, even though I started making some money about 8 months after I started, I know that I could have made more.
Every week, I read success stories written by people that followed the training. Usually once a month, I read a success story from people like me – that took a while to listen and do exactly what the training tells us to do.
Congratulations on finally telling your girlfriend about what you work on when she is not around. I wish you lots of success.
People can succeed if they follow the training – You are absolutely right about that.
As for the websites – I am guilty as well 🙂 Last year I started 3 websites. Soon after I found out that I need to focus solely on one website only. There is simply no way to handle 3 website simultaneously alone.
I think it is a common thing people (especially newbies) do.
The important thing is to realize that mistake, learn from it and start to focus on one website.
Thank you Sondra for your comment.
Mike, I appreciate your valuable information on a make money online program. This is a very in depth topic and you have done a very admirable job in explaining the WA network and community.
I am considered a “newbie” and I also am like you, tend to be introverted. I also am of the older generation and am finding this journey much more difficult than I expected but will never give up. Success could be just around the corner or it could be a year away but it will never happen if I quit.
You have pointed out things I was not aware of and I thank you for that. I think that is one important aspect that we must keep in our forethought. That is by helping others only increases our chances of success as there are more opportunities to grab our piece of the pie that we are just not aware of. Seeing other people succeed gives us more inspiration to build our our own business.
It’s not easy getting started but when I told my fiance about it she was very enthused and gives me much needed motivation and optimism when I am feeling like I don’t want to keep working at it. I hope that your girlfriend will be more supportive of your business and together you will be on easy street soon.
Like I said though I have just scratched the surface and hope to be reading about all of the successes of my peers and colleagues. Wealthy Affiliate seems to be the cream of the crop in affiliate marketing as you have so adequately pointed out. Thank you.
Thank you Doug for your comment.
I said to myself the same. No matter how fast I will grow, as soon as there is progress I am happy for that 🙂
Many “gurus” pretends they know things and they ask for hundreds of bucks, but at the end they just pretend to be great. they show off, try to impress other newbies. But they miss the point -> they don’t deliver any value.
This can be seen in many ClickBank products. Many of them have been already taken down due to violation of service.
Wealthy Affiliate has been here for almost 15 years with still growing community. That must mean something.
What I am wondering about wealthy affiliate is, too much positive review and giving huge recommendation by people. It seems this platform has gotten online marketing’s fans heart in the globe. As I always follow marketing and keep my eyes on market trends,it is amazing that this platform is improving day by day.
In my opinion if any person eager to start affiliate marketing,wealthy affiliate is best one in this industry.
I’ll definitely mention w-affilate to my friends as well as refer back your honest post to them.
Thank You
You are right. Wealthy Affiliate is truly a platform with a great training. They teach what really works in longtime term.
Is is perfect? I don’t think so. But comparing other platforms WA is one of the best. And I am glad being a member and part of the great community.
It might not be a best platform for everyone – therefore they do offer a 7 day FREE trial.
This is not very common practice with similar products.
I’ve tried some courses to make money online but they all sucked hard. I keep hearing about Wealthy Affiliate for the last few days and I can say that I am very tempted to join and check it out.
It seems to me like it’s offering a whole lot for a very reasonable price right?
Hi Harry.
you are right that most of the courses are just the way you describe it 🙂
Most of them claim how much you can earn in short period of time, but in reality they don’t provide the customer with a proper training.
On the other hand, Wealthy Affiliate takes much more conservative approach. I prefer it that way.
Like the quotation by Napoleon Hill goes:
“Tell the world what you intend to do but first show it.”
(WA does not have fancy sales videos, showing yachts, super cars and stuff like that. They do have plethora education though)
The thing is that people want to earn lot of money in very short time and with no effort. It does not work like that.
If one approaches Wealthy Affiliate as student approaches his study at University, that person most likely will have full time online income within 10-12 months.
And the price?
The best deal one can get is less than $1 a day.
Here is the price structure:
$49 /month
$234/ 6 months (save $60)
$359/ year (save $229)
I think that is a pretty good deal for the amount of education you get.
Making money online had always look like a mirage to me; well, I can’t blame myself, I have tried so many things but the result always were always frustrating. But then, I found wealthy affiliate and there was a turning point. There are so many opportunity and tools embedded in the platform, not to mention the lovely community who are always ready to guide you.
Nice writeup Mike.
I used to search for a legit system which would show me the exact steps how to build online business. After like 2 years I have found WA platform.. with the gained frustration over those 2 years I was really suspicious at first.
Then I started to realize how helpful the community is and the training was exactly what I was looking for.
I also love that WA platform keeps getting better.
I remember that the Jaaxy keyword research tool was not embedded into the WA and you had to pay extra.
It has been more than year now that the Jaaxy is part of the platform with no additional costs.
Thank Jordan for your comment, appreciate it.
You have really went above and beyond to explain the Wealthy Affiliate program to people. I like how you have also given people optional areas for creating websites. I have been a wealthy affiliate member for about 6 months now myself and I agree with the knowledge you can obtain through their program, it really is worth way more. You cannot beat what you are getting when you join this program, as you are getting years of experience from Affiliate marketers all over the world.
Thanks for this great article.
Thank you Johnny for your comment.
I am glad you find value in my review about Wealthy Affiliate above.
I agree with you regarding the value of WA. When I first joined I thought that fee $350 per year is quite a lot. But for the plethora of education one can get is really cheap.
