There are so many kinds of Make Money Online programs available, that people have a very hard time finding one that actually works. Many of them that do work are either very costly or they do not provide much opportunities for making money.

But Wealthy Affiliate is different and in this post I will explain the 6 ways to make money at Wealthy Affiliate. Anyone can do these and I am quite sure I am not the only WA member that is doing this. The variety of ways is determined by your time available.

Being a Member of Wealthy Affiliate has its Benefits

I am pretty sure that there are more than 6 ways, especially if you were to go deeper into some of the ways I will list below. But for the sake of this post I will explain the 6 main ways I have and do make money on the internet from what I have gained here at WA.

Before I list these six ways, you may be wondering about the picture above, and also of those to follow. What could they possibly have to do with earning revenue on the internet or even WA itself? They are part of the BENEFITS of going through the WA training. How?


It is because of the training I received here at WA, the same exact training all members have access to, that I am able to come up with 6 different ways I earn a living online. Every member of WA can do this too, if you plan things out.

Because of this knowledge, I have gained the benefits of being able to enjoy what is left of the summer down at the Jersey Shore. The picture above is the back patio area of a house me and a few friends are renting out for two weeks.

There are four of us in this 2-bedroom / 2 bathroom house that is literally only a 3 minute walk to our semi-private beach. Because we are in Cape May Point, New Jersey, the beaches here are only available to residents and guests.


Working from Anywhere and at Anytime

When you have the ability to consistently make money online, you can work at anytime and at anywhere in the world, as long as you have internet access. But this is NOT something that you will experience unless you complete the WA training.

And when I say complete the WA training I mean either the Online Entrepreneur Certification Course or the Affiliate Bootcamp. You do not have to do both to experience the joys of getting paid 24/7 from any place in the world.

You may have noticed that I have not been as active here within the community lately. This has to do with me being busy during the week doing some of what I will list below. Only on the weekends do I tend to helping the WA community.

But these past two weekends I have been a bit lazy to log in and pay it forward. There is just something so soothing about being only a few minutes walk to the Atlantic Ocean. The constant sound of the surf and the fresh air is relaxing.


Sure! I could spend a couple of hours lounging on a beach chair with my laptop or iPad, and do work on my website content or help WA members, but................ Come on! Look at that picture above. If you had access to that semi-private beach, would you want to work?

When you have the ability to earn revenue online without having to do much to make it, enjoying the benefits of being your own boss is rewarding. But you have to work hard for these perks of life and learn all you can from the WA training.

6 Ways to Make Money at Wealthy Affiliate in 2018 and Beyond

Below are the 6 ways I personally use to make money on the internet and its associated opportunities. Some I earn on a weekly basis and others I get paid monthly, or by product service. I didn't always do these. I gradually built up to these 6 ways.

  1. I make money in Affiliate Marketing promoting a membership for over 1,000 certified free wholesale drop shippers. I also promote a superior quality CBD Hemp OIl made here in the U.S. and its affiliate program. I also earn from a couple of survey and PPC sites.
  2. I make money in Affiliate Marketing promoting WA through their free affiliate program via my Affiliate Bootcamp website and social media posts.
  3. As a Premium member who has been here for more than three months, I create training for the WA community and I get paid once or twice per month. And these payments can grow over time depending on interaction with tutorials.
  4. I get paid by the word to write SEO website content and product descriptions for people both inside and outside of the WA community.
  5. I earn money performing niche marketing and keyword research for a couple of local internet marketers and small businesses.
  6. I make money building and/or maintaining a WordPress website for small business owners who either have them hosted here or on other servers. Lately I am trying to get them hosted here so I can take advantage of all the SitePlus perks offered to us here at WA.

Make Money with What You Learn Here at WA

When it comes to learning the proper way to create content that will rank well in Google and then applying affiliate links to that content, there is NO OTHER place to learn what you need to know than Wealthy Affiliate.

Unlike other programs that teach affiliate marketing, WA will do so for far less money. They do not ask you to pay more for advanced training. All of the training you will need is for the lowest price of $49.00 per month. And WA will save you money too.

The first month of Premium, regardless of when you upgrade from the free membership, will be discounted to only $19.00. Plus you can save even more money by paying for a yearly membership for $359.00, which when broken down comes to about $29.92 per month.


This is what I have done in my WA journey. I first took and completed the Certification Course so I could learn to build an effective affiliate marketing website in any kind of niche. I learned how affiliate marketing works, and even how to make money without a niche website.

Most affiliate programs require you to have a website in the appropriate niche, but there are some that do not. Though my sales will go up with a website, I am already making money with my CBD Hemp Oil affiliate program and my website is not finished yet.

Only after I completed the Certification Course and started making money in a popular and profitable niche, I decided to start the Affiliate Bootcamp and begin promoting WA. I explain why I feel that you should not do Bootcamp before Certification Course for best results.

Then I realized that there are a lot of people, mainly local small businesses, that have a website but do not really do anything with it. Many places just have a small website about their company without it providing effective content.

Now I approach local establishments and show them my websites on my iPad. I explain how I can gain organic traffic by using keyword research and other SEO techniques like I have learned here from WA. I then offer to do the same for their small website.

Go With What You Know

The training you receive here at WA is very good at preparing you for the creation of your very own profitable affiliate marketing website in any niche. When you learn and then apply what you learn to the creation of your website, you will soon see the benefits.

Getting to where I am now takes time and patience. Am I where I want to be in my WA journey? Absolutely not! But I am comfortable with where I am at. Because I know I will forever be a member here, this gives me time to explore the many aspects of how to earn money.

By taking what I have learned in the creation and operating of my own websites, I can provide this same knowledge to local small businesses that have websites. And because WA is so inexpensive, I can pass that savings on to any potential clients.


When you can be your own boss and have the ability to make a living earning your income on the internet, you can enjoy life more. You do not have to spend so much time behind a desk or the steering wheel of the car. Your office can be anywhere!

It is quite relaxing to take a leisure stroll down the street to experience a south New Jersey sunset like in the picture above. Whether you make your money in a niche website, create ways to get people to join WA, or you do a combination of both, making money online is great!

I again would like to thank Kyle and Carson for creating WA and providing us with many ways to make money at Wealthy Affiliate. My advice to all WA members is to stay dedicated well beyond a year, to reach your ideas and goals. Use what you learn here!

Hi Boomergp08,
Fantastic and knowledgeable report of how you can make money online with WA. 5-6 sources of income seems a logical amount of streams. Any more and it becomes complicated and any less could be dangerous if some algorithm changes unexpectedly or any other unexpected changes. I look forward to reading some of your other posts. I am sure they re very informative. Regards Gary

You are welcome Gary. Everyone can do what I am doing, it would just be different approaches and different amounts/kinds of income streams.

We must remember that much of what is taught here on keyword research and SEO can also be applied to other people outside of WA that have websites of their own.

thanks for the encouragement by sharing this post and experience. It has given me a rejuvenation, a spark to urge me to take another baby step. td

My pleasure. I am happy it has inspired you. But remember, success will only happen if you work hard to achieve it.

Your words have been copied and proven time and time again here at Wealthy Affiliate!
Thanks!

You are welcome.

Cape May is a great town! Be sure to check out the other shore towns in Cape May County. Lots of good food to be had down there. The Wildwoods are fun for the boardwalk. Stone Harbor has some great shopping and food. The beaches are great too. My family still has a restaurant there. Avalon is on the same island as SH. Still heading north, there's Sea Isle and Ocean City. Both are fun town but a little more crowded.

Enjoy your time at the beach!

I am very aware of the many shore towns up and down the Jersey Shore. Spent so many summers anywhere from Seaside Heights down to Cape May.

Your family has a restaurant in SH? What is the name of it? I may have time on the way back up to northern Jersey to check it out.

I didn't realize you were a Jersey Boy. :)

It's called Donna's Place. 107th St. and 3rd Ave. Open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Also has a bakery and fish & produce market. It's seasonal like so many other places down there.

Have fun! I love the shore in September!

Thanks Robert for the great post! You are given a comprehensive account. Much appreciated.

My pleasure. Glad you liked my post.

Making money online is great, which is my main reason of being here.

Thank you for such a great post, Robert...

You are welcome James. Happy you liked my post.

Your posts are always brilliant, Robert.

Hi Robert,

I want to thank you for this article.

Perfect timing -> as I`ve really needed to absorb such content like I read above.

Very inspiring.
Mike

You are welcome Mike. Success can always be achieved as long as you do not give up on how to achieve it.

Enjoy your holiday in Cape May Point, Robert, that's indeed one of the biggest benefits of working online, you can do it in any place everywhere and at any time. I love living this laptop-mobile-life:))

It might happen to you too, Loes...writing from your camper while exploring the world at the same time :))

I am working towards that kind of life James, my youngest turned 18 now, he has still one year schooling to go, after that, I am sure I can change into a more mobile life.

Yes. It is an amazing feeling when all you need to work is a tablet or laptop and an internet connection. But it has been hard to get motivated lately being in this peaceful environment.

I volunteer to kick your ass;))

Hahaha...is this the violent side of Loes? :)

Sometimes that needs to come out too;)

LOL Kick away.

Aha, you think, she's living at the other side of the world, she can't Hurt me...:))

LOL....

Looks like you have put a lot of effort into that blog post
Thanks for sharing

You are welcome.

Thank you for sharing your succes. Very clear and motivating.
Great example for all of us. !

My pleasure.
