Today we will be releasing some updates to the way that member rank works at Wealthy Affiliate. We're excited about these changes and we think they are going to further make rank at WA more accurately show how active, engaged, and helpful folks are.
Pay it Forward
This is a phrase that Kyle and I adopted from square one at Wealthy Affiliate. Way back in 2005 when we started WA and saw the need for an interactive community to teach Online Business, we started to "Pay it Forward" and build this into the roots of what WA is.
Paying it forward simply means that you will get help, get your questions answered, and have others lend a hand whenever they can. In turn, you will then have some answers that you can help others with when they have questions. Helping one another is another way to look at it!
Our update today with regards to ranking and working towards ambassadorship takes into consideration how you pay it forward. Do you reply to people who have questions or are looking for feedback? Have you passed along any information that you learned from someone else? These are the kinds of things that are now taken into consideration within your WA Rank.
Helpful means being Well Rounded Too!
Being "well rounded" means you are paying it forward across the spectrum of communication platforms in WA. Helping someone out when they have questions, in live chat, on WA blogs, in classroom discussions etc. There are many ways to pay it forward and we consider this within the latest update.
90% of questions at Wealthy Affiliate get answered, and although that is incredible, it's still not good enough. Everyone deserves an answer and we are building the technology so that questions can be found and answered more quickly. As such, response time plays an important role in the latest update.
When it comes to training, we continue the trend of Paying it Forward and Rankings. If you have something that you want to share with others that works for you, that's great and you are more than welcome to publish. We will continue to closely monitor training to make sure all training added to WA is helpful, easy to follow, and free of any promotions or links to external sites. Together we can contribute, evolve, and continue to be the most helpful community in the online business world!
What will happen to your Rank?
Your rank may go up, it may go down, or it may stay exactly the same. Your points may show more in one category and less in another and this fluctuation will happen now and in the future. Some aspects of our algorithm give more weight to certain metrics, and less to others. With every update we make you can expect to see fluctuation in your points. So, don't worry yourself about your "points". If you pay it forward and are well rounded in regards to being helpful, your WA rank will reflect that.
Everything that Kyle and I do at Wealthy Affiliate is designed and built with utmost quality in mind and will always focus on this. We strive to be the most helpful community, have the easiest to use platform, and in turn help members become the most educated, trained, and successful online business owners in the world.
This update follows these goals and will help to move the entire community in a positive and forward thinking direction.

Thanks for this post, Carson. Paying it forward is definitely a beneficial way to participate in a community! I'm not especially "tech savvy" (though I'm surprised at what I've been able to share with other people sometimes!) but I know I have a lot to offer in other areas. Looking forward to participating more in this "cutting edge" community!

I wanted to thank you Kyle and Carson(and the team behind the scenes), for creating Wealthy Affiliate and keeping it such an ethical and classy place. I am always impressed by how you guys personally help members and care about their success.
I am thankful for the opportunity to create my own income. That is a life changer for me and my family. Also, thanks for the pay it forward part of WA. I really like passing on what I learn here and helping others.
Thanks also to all the members who give their time to helping others.

I thank you Mr. Kyle and Mr. Carson for giving me an opportunity to be in Pay it Forward.
To tell you the truth I am quite new to network and SFI. I have learnt about computers
Quite recently from my daughters. I am still very new. to tell you frankly I am totally
addicted to SFI though I have not been able to earn a single penny. I am a person who does not give up easily and I will definitely try to earn soon. I am a retired old man and
I am not in the position to invest money at the moment. But may be soon.
I have very much liked your Pay it Forward and I am with you.
Thank you for considering me for your Program.

Thanks Kyle /Carson and senoir members. There seems to be a lot of do's and don'ts and be awares of! that new members have not read yet, and I'm talking to myself, sure there are many things still to uncover in the future. Could it be possible to have a "CAN DO" and "DO NOT" Button section or a platform in "Tools & Services" where one can submit for approval such things as:- Do you reply to people who have questions or are looking for feedback?.... Have you passed along any information that you learned from someone else?.... Pass on links from other sources outside of WA that could be helpfull to members to take a look at? ...? .... ?etc. Is this right or wrong, because I would hate to find out that I have broken the trust with WA members, which is what I am not here to do, but to watch as many video clips on "How to do ...." to make my site better. I welcome feedback from all. Tom

I think there are two main rules here as far as I can see: Firstly, keep it civil. No flaming, goading or sniping, unless it's me talking to MikeyB, in which case he gets all he deserves... Secondly, don't try to sell to people directly here, whether it's on the forum or by spamming them with PMs.
Those seem to be the two main no-no's. For your "can do" pile, I'd say everything else, particularly if it leads to support, interaction, education and edification of other members, whether starter or premium.

I think Paul's rule of thumb is pretty accurate...as you continue to comment and read comments and go through the levels you'll see that all you really need to think about is learning, involvement, a willingness to help, and simple respect. If you're uncertain of a particular action you can always pm Kyle or Carson, but I think 99% of the time it's covered under what Paul said.

Thanks for directing me to this site to answer my question. I know I am going to love being part of this community. Part of the reason for getting involved in this is to pay back for what I have received. And "Pay it Forward" sure fits this. Part of your success is from this being with you from the inception. Thanks again.

This is something that will benefit us all. As I've previously stated, and I still stand, I think that we have an outstanding arsenal of tools and training within WA. But to me, WE ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT. And by WE, I mean THE COMMUNITY. I think, and believe it's our most powerful tool. Sometimes, you don't even need to know the answer, but by stopping by and saying something positive, you can make the day for somebody here. And trust me, you will be helping them as much as if you'd actually answered the question. Cheers for a tighter community, together we are unbelievably powerful!

Hi Carson. Another thought just hit me: I see many members posting their site in Chat for review or we're trying to remember the link to Kyle's post about sharing our sites for review. Would it be useful to have a permanent tab on the dashboard or sidebar so this could be found easily and we can help each other with site reviews? Just a thought.

Hey Christina!
Yes, we've recently started to send out some member questions in an email when a fellow member need help. We've done this in a way that will not be overwhelming at all, and we've limited how many notifications of this type any one person will receive.
Just another way that we can let each other know that we need help :)

WA truly is a special place, it seems all these new updates are guiding us into a closer knit, supportive community and MAKES us WANT to help each other.
As the months that I've been a member here slip by, I feel a transition is taking place. You're managing to take a community of thousands of strangers (from everywhere in the world) and make us into a warm, inviting, safe, comfortable family and that's why so many of us love it here so much.
Thanks for keeping WA so original and unique. It's gotta feel great to be "the one and only" because there isn't another place like WA anywhere.
You guys are the best!

Hi - great stuff.
If it helps some people be more engaged in helping others with their experience, then that can only be a good thing.
For me personally, I just want to help when I can, and be helped when I need it - if that means my rank goes up or down, then that's a consequence. Either way (up or down), what you've both created, and what the community itself has nurtured and developed, is brilliant.
All the best to you both, and to everyone who helps make WA what it is.

I had a feeling there was a code update because my rank jumped up, or I should say down since the lower the better.
I have always been a person to help someone if I have the knowledge to do so. After all that is the original goal of my niche content websites, to help people with information that I have that they may not know and can benefit from.
When I first arrived here in August I needed help with some problems I was having with building my website and I received that help from many members. Then when I would see other members asking the same questions I did, I would pass on that knowledge.
Paying it forward is just one of the many reasons why I love being here at WA.

One of the nicest things about WA, I think, is your paying it forward concept. Not only because it's incredibly helpful for everyone, but also because it enables even newbies (like me) to contribute in a meaningful way. And that does a whole bunch of good things for my self-esteem, as I am sure it will for anyone else who may not know a whole lot, but does know a little and wants to help out.

Carson,
One of the things I like best about WA is the exceptional way you and Kyle sequence the learning activities in small steps, making each one logical and meaningful. Every single lesson in the Certification Levels 1-4 are priceless to me. In addition to the ones you and Kyle have made, there are many other training posts written by other WA members. Unfortunately, these often get lost by the wayside because I don't know where to go to find them. Do you think there might be some way to put them all in the same place and index them by topic so we can easily find a helpful training lesson to share with the WA friend who is needing help? I know this would help me a lot to refresh what I learned but have unfortunately forgotten. I need to watch some over and over before they sink in.

I saw that and I wondered what happened.
I may not be of much help with some of the Internet marketing details (but I can help with some things) because there are others who are better than myself. If I am on the Live Chat and someone comes on, I do answer their questions and point them to the right resources. I'm more of a director of traffic than I am the magistrate.
There are other aspects of online business, including mindset and motivation. It's these things I get much deeper into and that of support when it comes to folks expressing their desire to transition from employment to entrepreneurship.
When I can really pull forward with my own achievement making better income online, I feel I will have more of the "license" to delve into the kind of details others that are making full-time income can.
For now, I do help with the basics if someone comes on with these kind of questions.
Once in a while I ask questions myself, but I usually try to figure things out myself first.
I struggle as an online marketer. Sometimes I feel like it's just not for me, but I also have my up-times. Small of an income I do get, It's been consistent since April.
I definitely feel good when I help someone and make that person happy. It is a reward in itself. I do it because I note that perhaps half the folks on here who write profiles about themselves express their disdain for employment and the constraint it imposes. It's my way of rooting for folks who come on here with the dream of replacing that drudgery with what they enjoy, and truly being an asset to humanity.
WA is not perfect, but nothing man made is. Albeit, when you take a good hard look at this platform, notice it constantly evolves. The one thing that doesn't happen here is stagnation. It was slow in its earlier years, but over time, it has gained so much momentum that updates are almost a daily thing.
Note that true entrepreneurs are never satisfied with what they build. That's why they are so well-known for innovation. It's why WA is number one for online business training and community. As I've noted throughout the time I've been here and seen it in the Forum, paying it forward. It's always been here.
Today I was in my Journal and looked up many of the old sites I used to be subscribed to in 2004. Almost all of them are gone today. One, "MyMoneyMakingIdeas," so hot back then, is still there, but it's empty and it's for sale. I still have all the old emails from that subscription. Some of these folks started during the pioneer days of marketing on the Internet cerca 1996, 1997, etc. Sad!
Take not just the knowledge of building campaigns with you, be sure to take WA's spirit with you as well into your own businesses and very likely, you will come out on top in your niches as well.

My compliments to Mr. Kyle and Mr.Carson for making the member rank based on objective considerations. A community can grow only when people take care of each other, and we always grow by helping each other. We shall keep this aspect in our mind and shall always try to help others to our capacity. That will make this place worth being in.

At the end of the day, there is nothing that feels better than helping someone accomplish something. We all need to remember that we started somewhere and that by taking that second to respond to a discussion, to respond to a comment in training, to congratulate someone on a new accomplishment, or to respond to a live chat where someone needs help.
One thing I have found over the years is that when you can help someone, it pays you back in dividends. We all have something to learn, but we also have something to teach...but we all start somewhere. 11 years ago (probably just about today), I started my journey online and I know if I had the support of the awesome people here at WA at the time, I would have been able to speed my path to my goals drastically.
Thanks everyone for being YOU and I really do look forward to an exciting year ahead within the "community" here at WA!

This place is unusual.
I've been on a number of networking forums where the idea is to scare a noob ****less in the first five minutes, then virtually run him out of town. Then there were the countless members who didn't want to be too helpful, because it was trade secrets they were giving away, and that would mean less business. I've seen so much aggression on business forums that I began to despair about the future of business online.
It's nice to be in a community where giving is the norm.
I've been on a number of networking forums where the idea is to scare a noob ****less in the first five minutes, then virtually run him out of town. Then there were the countless members who didn't want to be too helpful, because it was trade secrets they were giving away, and that would mean less business.

Hi Kyle - I am still new here at WA but already feel able to help a little bit.
Many of those joining are starting out on a brand new chapter and personal adventure, hoping to realise their dreams, change their own lives and that of their families. My initial goal was to make a reasonable living for myself, to be able to go into work and tell the boss what he could do with his job. I didn't really think about all of the other people out there trying to do the same thing and make a better life for themselves. It has been a huge eye opener for me that there could possibly be such a genuine and selfless community and a great bunch of generous folk willing to give you their time and pass on the wonderful knowledge and training that we see here on WA.
I'm looking forward so much to the next part of the experience and to the making of many more good friends.

Thanks WA! I'm a thankful member for all you guys have given me. I think everyone knows, and if they don't they need to wake up, that you and Kyle constantly update your business and genuinely care about people being successful in your program. I haven't ever seen an update that hasn't made this a better community. I have realized even with my own websites that things are constantly changing and not resist the change because the innovators are the ones that become successful. Thanks again Carson.

I have never thought possible that I would discover an online site that is so selfless in helping people succeed and avoids spam, advertising etc. Such a breath of fresh air. I wish I found you guys sooner before being scammed so many times. For the first time I feel that I can trust the community and be confident that I can get help whenever I need it! Thank you Kyle, Carson and all the members at WA!

You both have great chemistry that you were able to capture the spirit of sharing and helping as your first-hand experience. But I believe it was your selfless ambitions that made you extend the same spirit to the whole community. Way to go, Kyle & Carson. This endeavor will bring many lives to a much-awaited level of success in the virtual world! You have a legacy that we all can continue to share so that the whole world will be a great place to live ~because WA will become the converging zone! Oh, I can't wait for this to happen! Feeling excited! :)

That is a great community that you have setup so that any questions that newcomers have can be answered. I appreciate you going for the over 90% response rate for answers. The ranking is a great system to motivate users to contribute as an online marketing community. I recall being a member of WA I think 5 years ago, but did not engage and disappeared. Now that I'm back, I see how great your training is for the starter.

Welcome back Daniel! We have changed a lot over the years and rankings at WA has certainly helped build on the community aspect. The training has never been better, more clear, or more widely adopted! We're happy to see so many folks succeeding as they complete tasks and move forward in their training.
Thanks for the feedback!

Hey Rodney,
I look forward to meeting you as well and sales WILL come! Keep moving forward and focus on the quality of content that you post on your website. Once the traffic and rankings become more consistent, your revenue will follow suit!
If I can help with anything, please let me know.

We are not "perfect" but we are working hard to make sure everyone gets their questions answered! Many new features of WA will help with this. Everyone at WA is a team and helping one another helps the community as a whole.

Yes the page is published. I guess posting is not the correct word. After we complete training Kyle has provide the link to the page from our website that we just wrote. I include a nice message asking for feedback and comments. However, my request goes unanswered. I then a day later I write another message asking for feedback and usually I will then get some response. It is frustrating to have to ask twice though. It is great that after a specific training that we send a message with our new link but frustrating when you have to keep asking for comments. Thank you for listening. Debbie

Thanks Mike, those are powerful words and they are highly motivating for Kyle and I.
There is not a minute in the day that we and our team are working to improve the platform, the training, the tools, the website network, or the communication and this will never slow ;)
Much appreciated!
