Published on Wealthy Affiliate — a platform for building real online businesses with modern training and AI.

So almost exactly seven months into WA, I joined on 5 Oct 2013, I have had my very first referral!

I haven't been spending much time on building my site lately, as so many orders have been rolling in for homemade meat pies, pickles, jams and biscuits, that I have been totally whacked by 11 at night.

I am not sure where this referral came from, I must really add tracking to my links, but I have been sharing WA posts on Twitter an FB between rolling out pastry and stirring jam. Oh, and raising Tweetles, our six week old chicken that keeps getting under my feet, she really thinks she's human and that I'm her mother!

But back to business! Thank you to everyone for the support and encouragment, read my post, 'Not such a Good Day', and you'll know what I'm talking about! To Kyle and Carson for this fantastic program that you guys have designed, a big thank you that we can earn money within the WA platform!

I know it's not a lot, just $1, that is just over R10 in South Africa, but to me it's the promise of better things to come! So take heart all you WAuers out there that are ready to throw in the towel, hang on, bite down, look up and keep smiling!

We are all going to make it!

Lydia.
