What is the wealthy affiliate scam , lets compare and see?

We all came from a place that is unique to our lives and our own situations. Most of us have been scammed, and lets be honest, scammed several times. Each of us walked a road with people or an organization, some even with mentors, others walked all alone. But that road led you here, whether you believe it or not.

We all want to provide for our families. Some just want to buy a proper gift for his/her son/daughter on his/her birthday for the first time. Each and every one of us has his/her own reasons for being here. But if you look very closely there are a couple of things that bring and indeed keep us together here.

So lets take a look. While we do this we will swing back and forth between Wealthy Affiliate and your past...


1. Support.

If you think back to previous companies you were with, what made you battle with it in the very first place? Be very honest with yourself now...

A lack of proper support!

Think back hard now...

Did you get any support at all? Or even if you did, did you find that, the way it works in most shark companies out there, you knew just about as much as the guy who is your "mentor" and the same guy who signed you up? Lets be honest, this is the ugly truth folks! Most people are just floating around in a deep hole overflowing with information but with a total lack of support as to the direction one has to take...

Sound familiar doesn't it?

Most of the so called "guru" teachers out there are out to get your money, then afterwards, they pretty much leave you out to either drown in information overload or to starve from no info or help at all...

So, whats different here in Wealthy Affiliate?

I have never even seen support like this in ANY company I have been with! From day one I have been supported by not just the "big guys" but from everyone else here.

Every person I have met and interacted with has been helpful. Some are quite "colorful" and they know who they are... I will not name names here lol !

Even the guys that have been in Wealthy Affiliate for a number of years and making a solid income from this great platform, they interact with us that have been here mere minutes!

When sending in a support ticket, the longest I have ever waited was 2 hours. That is a lot shorter than I ever waited in other companies.

2. Proper training.

Think back again...

When you didn't get that support in that company, what did you do?

What do most folks do when they don't get support? They think...

"Fine! I can do this by myself! I spent my money on this already so I have to do this anyway or I lose my money! Again! "

So what happens after that? You soldier on by yourself and then realize....

This training is not what they told me it would be... or...

This training does not work at all, even when I apply what the "guru" said !

You have no clue what order the training is in or how it follows...

Sound familiar?

So, whats different here in Wealthy Affiliate?

If you apply the training as the training tells you to do, it works.

Sounds simple...because it is!

We tend to over think and over analyze things in life and we do the same here.

Because it is simple it has to be wrong, right?

I thought so too, I am being honest here, I know I over analyze lol !

Just ask my wife she will tell you I really, really do!

The training is step by step. Each lesson builds one the previous lesson. You can apply it to any website or online business, and it works the same.

And best of all for me, it covers everything you could want to know!

Most training out there covers only certain subjects, or only what you pay them for.

This not just another online business that covers only this or only that, it covers online business and everything connected to that.

They got you covered!

Even the small functions in the program works well and compliments the training very well. For example, the search bar function is an amazing tool and lets you find almost anything. If you don't find it there, you ask a question and get answers!

When you're skills have been built up, you can create training as well!

That is also known as empowerment...

Where else would you find that?

3. A community that actually helps.

Swing back to that old company again...

Did they interact with you on a daily and proper basis?

Did they actually answer your questions?

The people that did answer, did they actually know more than you?

Were they timely in they're support?

Did they actually get back to you about your queries?

Most I have found did not...

Why is this?

The ugly truth about the shark companies out there is all the people in there know about as much as you, the newbie that just started!

For exactly the reasons stated above...

So, whats different here in Wealthy Affiliate?

Here in Wealthy affiliate I was greeted and welcomed from the very first second.

The community really helps and answers each other on a continual basis. There are lots people in here with amazing skills and they help out too!

The live chat feature lets one ask and receive help very quickly and also build the connections in you Wealthy Affiliate sphere of connections.

So if we take all this together, what is Wealthy Affiliate really?

If you go down to the bottom line...

Wealthy Affiliate is a connection.

Wealthy Affiliate is a unit.

Wealthy Affiliate is a family.

So to answer your question - What is the wealthy affiliate scam ?

There is no such thing...

I am not in any way bashing any specific company out there, but we have all been in companies that just plain and simply robs people, scams people and makes the whole online experience one of negative cynicism.

Wealthy Affiliate is changing this stigma, one member at a time...

WELCOME TO THE WEALTHY AFFILIATE FAMILY!!!

May you be blessed in all you do!

Fantastic posts

Thank you so much, was my first one here!

Great post and advice. thanks.

Thank you so much I appreciate it!

Hi Dirk, Excellent points. WA is certainly not a scam. The training, the expert assistance and the knowledgeable members all willing to provide help and support. It is a great family here at WA.

Thank you Wayne, that is certainly true. It is an awesome family!

Hey Dirk, great post. I too over-analyze everything and have wondered if this site was real. I even wondered whether the people here were real, or if I was just being played by a sophisticated group of sharks. But if you think of the monthly subscription and the fact that you get domain hosting for up to 50 websites, email and tons of training and support, then you're not being scammed. I have another blog on a different hosting site that charges just as much, but there's no extensive training or community. So, even if you don't make money, it's still worth it. But the potential payout and the fun of starting online businesses with this support makes the investment infinitely more exciting.

I know exactly how you feel... been there too for a long time. This is a family of great people that help each other. And for the price we pay here we get a huge amount of things included.

Dirk,
Really impressive post and I completely agree. Lots of good stuff here!
Erica

Thank you it is my first one on the WA platform itself!

Hi Dirk...
Fantastic post you have just put together...
And yes...it's really fantastic here...the training and support is second to none I have encountered after 4 years of searching!
I keep saying...we are in really good hands here all around!
Best wishes
Steve

Wow thank you first one on WA for me... thank you for agreeing. So many people are out there when they need an should be here...

I have been in education a huge part of my life and have found that three things are important to succeed. Dirk's blog covered them all. Training, tools and support. Alot of programs have two out of three. Some only have one, but WA provides all three. Everytime I have a quesiton, someone offers me a great answer that solves. My problem. We all arrived at WA taking a chance on another internet program. It turns out to be great. Thanks for the blog post Dirk.















Thank you Doc. I agree, most have some but not all as we have here. It is sad but true nonetheless...

Wow you did a great job! I really like it! It's so pure and clear!
Why don't you make it on your getting started page on your WA site? You can do it! Don't hesitate, your stile is so clear and understandable.
Thanks for this its outstanding!

Wow thank you I appreciate it. Not sure what you mean with making it on my wa getting started page though... please elaborate?

Have you started with the WA Bootcamp? I meant If you haven't , to start promoting the WA since you really know how to do it. And if you start doing it on your new WA site (that you would make along the WA Bootcamp) you will make a lot of money :)

Oh, now I understand. I have not started that actually, maybe I should lol. Were here to make money, after all, are we not? Thank you for that vote of confidence, I appreciate it!

Yes that's why I said that, to start right there since you can write about the WA so good :)

I strongly agreed, I have bought many programmes, and would not say that I have been scam all the time, but most programmes lack the support that WA has, so far WA is the one I feel has the best support.

Unfortunately, I know several people that have been scammed over and over and over...But I understand what you mean. Not all are scams, but unfortunately, the big majority is...

We are a family and I enjoy it immensely :)

Wow, thank you for the reply. Coming from one of the legends of WA I appreciate this! Yes we are a family and we work together!

That is what was lacking at the other companies now that I think about it...it was just a machine, not a family.... Have you also experienced it as such?
