2 Year Anniversary

This is a day that truly changed my life.

Like many of you, I began by just doing a simple search on how to make money online.

I was luckier than most in that I didn't go through a bunch of scams before I found Wealthy Affiliate.

Before I started WA, I knew nothing about websites other than to find information on them. I had never heard of WordPress, widgets, DNS, etc


I was quite confused in the beginning and would get frustrated often! (just check out some of my early blogs! lol)

Luckily WA offers great training - AND best of all there is awesome support! Not only from the actual support team BUT from other members as well.

Some people have success right away. Others, like myself, it took a little longer.

I didn't make any money from my online endeavors for about 9 months!

I stuck with it though. I was determined to make a living online. (I'm a bit hard-headed that way!)

When I began my journey two years ago, I had no income. I don't mean little income -

I literally had zero income - and no savings!

My daughter was supporting me and that just didn't sit well with me.

Once I got into the training, I realized the value of what I had found. I just had no idea how I was going to pay for it!

I borrowed my first month payment and then went on a search for how to make just enough to pay for WA.

I found a few short term solutions such as swagbucks and foxyblogger - I have blogs on both. They definitely won't make you rich but if you're really struggling to just pay for WA - they can be short term solutions.

You have to be willing to think outside the box!

Fast forward to today.

I now make enough money to support myself - ALL through working online.

I'm writing this post from Scotland! A dream of mine for some time. It is my first trip outside the US.

  • Follow the training here and you will succeed.
  • Ask questions when you don't understand.
  • Don't be so hard on yourself!
  • Failure is not a bad word!

You are learning something new so give yourself time to learn it and understand it.

Oh and by the way -

You never stop learning!

I still am learning new and exciting things about making money online.

I have to get back to work now. :)

Have a great day1

Congratulations Angela, great motivation for the rest of us.

Thanks Harvey :)

Congrats Angela. It took me about 9 months to make my first sale. They are trickling in almost daily now (17 months later) but I'm still nowhere near being able to support myself. My goal is to be able to make $1000-$3000 a month. I'm not looking to become a millionaire online. Just some extra money for my family.

Keep pushing through. Take one day at a time. You will get there.

Thanks. I'm not giving up!

Great post Angela .. I have tears in my eyes .. you are an inspiration! Cheers, William.

Angela, I remember when you started and I remember your struggles in the beginning. But, I always knew you had the drive and the desire to make it. Much continued success.
