I joined WealthyAffiliate about a week ago, and purchased the $19.00 first month premium membership yesterday. I really like the program, the social aspect, and the content I have seen up until now.

I started this blog as a sort of journal of my experiences both good and bad (though I am sure that most will be good of course), and to share some of the things that I have learned through this program.

In the past week I have browsed quite a bit of content, and from what I can see I have just barely scratched the surface of what WA has to offer. I have over the years heard of affiliate marketing, and relatively recently I decided that affiliate marketing was something that I could get really serious about.

During my time spent researching affiliate marketing, I came across some good reading, and walked into a couple of great learning resources. WealthyAffiliate and Affilorama (sorry, I said it!). While I do think both programs appear to be very strong leaders in helping people get into affiliate marketing, I can't make an honest comparison between the two because I have not learned enough to make fair judgement.

I did make a decision though that I wanted to put 100% into one program rather than splitting my efforts between the two programs, and ultimately (obviously) picked WA, because there was something I saw within the business model of WA that I really liked.

That is not to say that in the future I won't head over to Affilorama and dig deeper into what they have to offer, because I strongly do believe that leveraging multiple resources (including other programs that I have not yet come across), will be key in long term success. Never stop learning!

Back to the topic at hand however, I started out with the 'Get Started Here', and when it came to the niche portion, I did come up with a few niches that I liked (that were non-WA-promotional niches), however decided to first make a go of the Affiliate Bootcamp process and focus on marketing WA for my first project while I am learning, and all that I have learned about affiliate marketing so far is a good starting point to make a niche from.

So I bought a domain that I really liked (and I hope you all like it too, and don't hate me for grabbing it first :) - UnleashedAffiliate ), and I ask you all to head over and check out the one page that I have completed 'About Me'. I appreciate any feedback you have to offer and I look forward to posting regular updates of my progress.
