Someone at WA Asked Me

A fellow affiliate here at WA sent me this PM right after I followed his profile:

"Don't get me wrong miss, you fall under top 100, and i am still nowhere here. C'mon, 5073 rank is nothing in-front of you. How you will be benefited by following me?"

I've received some similar PM's here before too when I was still at 100+ rank. It's food for thought to me because at some point, I was like that. I was overwhelmed with the amazing welcome and greetings in this community that I also asked that before (to myself, though.)

While having a high rank here is just a number (I have yet to understand if there is any gains or incentives for being on top, aside from gaining more motivation), WA rank has nothing to do with one's ability to be successful.

In fact, I've seen a few members here who keep below the radar, but are very successful in their internet marketing.

So how does one benefit from following someone here, regardless of their rank?

We have different reasons. Mine is simple: to make friends. Being a newbie here can be very hard, but knowing that you are sharing the same journey, ups and downs, and the same dizzying climb up to the top, makes the experience even more awesome.

Cheers to making more friends!
