I am a newbie and am loving the freebie access. Considering the premium upgrade, but can not yet justify spending $47 a month to make $11 on a referral. This would been that y

Hey Blue,

Just wanted to expand a little bit on what everyone else is saying here. So basically if you will be promoting WA and are a Premium Member you will receive:

$1 for everyone who fills out their bio and picture.
$22.50 for each month your referral is premium. So if they stay 6 months you will earn $135.

So the earnings can add up fast with WA. But something most people haven't covered is most likely (if you're smart) referring people to WA won't be the only source of income from you website.

You should also be promoting other products. I will use my website for example.

Sources of income:

1) WA referrals
2) ClickBank product sales (other money making products)
3) Referrals to other sites: survey sites and other programs
4) PayPerClick Ads: Google Adsense
5) Private Advertising: Fiverr Gigs mostly

So you can see I make money with my site a few different ways. Not all my earnings are coming from referring people to WA and if promoting WA is what you decided to do you should make money from other ways as well.

Chances are the first month it won't pay for itself. Heck it might take 6 months till your earnings reach where it pays for itself, but I guarantee that if you stick with it to where you can make it pay for itself than you can reach earnings way higher than just paying for itself!


Just wanted to give you the perspective that promoting WA is not the only way you can make money with your site and it really should not be. Hope this helps give you an idea of the earning potential but if you have any questions at all please let me know!

I am glad for been paying for the education, the support and the access to this community.

I think you're missing the "monthly recurring" part. If you refer one premium member you get $22.50 every month that they stick with WA. If they stay the whole year that's $246. So if you always have 2 active premium members you'll be making $45/month. If you refer 60 people over the year (as mentioned above) and they stick with it your income would be $1350 each month. Regardless of that, your sole purpose for being a member at WA should not be just to refer people here. You should be here for the education and community. But, to each his own.

Not to mention the hosting.

Hey guys. Just saw this and wanted to interject here for a few. Blue, Ryan is 100% right on his point. The purpose of WA is for the community and interaction -- as opposed to just making an income.

If this wasn't the case, Kyle & Carson could have simply put their products on Clickbank and just have affiliates promote their stuff from there.

But, members over the years requested for a community (a highly interactive one) and so here we are today, with this type of platform that WA provides.

So, yes it is more than worth it to pay that $47, or if you upgrade to yearly you can save a great deal more from there. Just my 2 cents!

>>>> Good job on your commenting Ryan. All the best guys!

Thank you Keane ( and everyone). I have found the site and community to be very helpful. And the recurring info was also insightful. All good - I just might need to wait to signup for premium even with the special. Fact is ....broke is broke. :)

No prob Blue. I say -- go at your own pace...

I think you are forgetting about making many streams of income from the website and blog opportunities to prosper at WA. See veronicaI blog for immediate income https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/training/6-ways-to-make-money-with-your-wordpress-blog

Awesome! You are all inspiring me to just "find the money" to convert now!

Absolutely , worth the $47.00 ! Just the training alone is worth it. Then you also have Hosting and a world of great people to help with any questions or problems that you encounter. Just do it !!! You will be glad you did.

Thank you guitarman. Sometimes, at least for me, the first step is the hardest one to take. The site is wonderful, very helpful and not a bunch of garbage and repetitive hype.

You are paid $22.50 per referral per month.

Thanks for the clarification.

I like to think of it this way, "You pay for an education one way or another" As far as an education goes WA is a Bargain.

I would not even attempt to build a website without WA. If it takes me 3 months, 6 months or a year to start earning a Full Time Income, than my Investment has an excellent ROI. I'm not looking to break even.

WA Best Deal In Town.

Agree - sort of. Most of the education is online and for free; ie the Wordpress community, Affiliate boards, etc. The beauty here is the community itself and the portal provided. But still - seems high given that the conversion rate looks to be 1 in 8.

Amen!

Great point. It's like college all over again!! Minus the $100,000's of dollars being spent.

Should have just skipped university and came straight here. If I only knew better..!

premium members will make $1 (for setting up account) PLUS $22.50 per referral ($23.50 total) once they upgrade to premium too.

If you upgrade to yearly, it only costs you $359....saving more than $200 compared to the $47 monthly

that's 16 referrals a year or less than 2 per month to break even

Thanks - good insight.
