Preparing for a Booming Summer at WA!
Hey Everyone!
Today I want to blog about some things happening in the background of WA that we're really excited about and happy to have just released.
The WA Platform has been Upgraded in a BIG Way!
We've updated the underlying architecture of WA and how the members area works because we have been in need of more power for quite a while. You may remember us having some technical difficulties with those "Gateway Timeout" errors in the past weeks and months. Well, those were caused by the WA community simply being overloaded with activity.
For months we've been working on updating WA so that we can handle an unlimited number of members. We're growing at the fastest pace ever, and we needed this update to keep the community running smoothly! The main thing you will likely notice that pages in WA load much faster now - smoother, and making your way through the community is just a lot better in every way.
We have updated the platform to help handle more members, but to also handle for many improvements and brand new platforms that WA is going to see in the near future.
With new platforms slated for WA, the processing power to allow us to offer them was an absolute must. We're really excited about what we have coming and I really think that you will love it too :)
It's May 2015 already but this year has been our most productive yet!
This year has been our most productive yet in terms of improvements to the WA platform with new features and updates to existing ones. It's also been a year of great advances in other areas!
- We're welcoming more members everyday then we ever have.
- Communication and relationships are bring formed by more people than ever. This means more questions answered, and more "paying it forward" to help one another.
- More folks are reaching milestones and achieving the goals they set out to conquer Success is happening at the highest rate ever!
- Platforms like SiteFeedback have allowed 1000's of people to get quality feedback on their websites...then turn that feedback into top rankings, high conversions, and revenue.
- Our website password management has removed the need to remember passwords, and it has helped to stop password hacking in it's tracks. As well, its allowing everyone to get into their websites with the click of a button.
- Members with websites built at WA have the most secure sites, the most monitored sites, and the most robust sites out there in comparison other web hosts. That paired with the un paralleled amount of help available, we're seeing some of the best looking (and highest ranking) websites...even from even those who are brand new to WA - Great work everyone!
- Live chat is now 4x as active after the introduction of notification bubbles and the ability to get involved in chat from all pages in WA. The response to these changes have literally blown Kyle and I away - it's awesome to see people communicating, helping one another, and learning at levels we've never before seen.
New Platforms are Coming!
We are always working on improvements for both the WA members area, and the SiteRubix website network. This summer we are going to be releasing awesome new platforms that will help take your websites and your businesses to new heights. Kyle and I see huge holes in what is available in for Internet marketers and those building online businesses. We have always made it a goal to fill those holes with services that you cannot get anywhere else...and that's exactly what we are continuing to do!
We are really excited about what is in the works, and what we have in our pipeline for Wealthy Affiliate members!
With all of the success, achievements, and activity happening at WA, our community grows, evolves, and requires more demanding technology in the background. Today we are really happy get this new infrastructure in place and to let everyone know that we're ready for the future!
We hope that you are also ready for what we have in store because this summer is going to be booming at Wealthy Affiliate!

Carson, is it theoretically possible for you to become the highest ranked member on Wealthy Affiliate or is Kyle's number one position set in stone?
(I know it's not directly related to this wonderful blog post, but I can't help but wonder... )
Hey Bart,
It's absolutely possible to become ranked higher than Kyle or I, but it would take a heck of a lot since we're the most active members by a long shot :)
I welcome any members to aim for #1 or #2 though :)
Carson
WA just keeps getting better and better!
Would never have been the same without you and Kyle though Carson. You are the heart and soul of Wealthy Affiliate, and we appreciate everything you do!!!
Carson
Very well done. I actually thought WA was the best, not you've shown that it can get even better. Thanks.

Awesome David! It's certainly our goal to remain the "best" in the eyes of all members and today's updates will certainly allow us to continue growing, evolving, and improving!
Great to hear from you :)
This all sounds great and with all the always updated training it will make it better for everyone, super site, great owners Thanks.
Thanks for chiming in Wayne :) Keeping our training up to date is something we work on every day - and you can expect regular updates to our courses and video's!
I have to say it is also signif. easier to find training and stuff to link to people when we can open chat from anywhere. And I def. like that I can still go through my bootcamp courses and see if someone is asking a question. I know it can be demotivating when people ask a question in chat and get 0 response.
Glad that you guys have figured out how to fix the time out errors, they are always really random and freak me out lol. One of the best things about this place is that you guys are always so on the ball with updating and improving. It is good to know that the community is dynamic.
Can't wait to see what else you guys are coming up with!

Hey Jean, thanks for the comment and feedback! It's motivating for Kyle and I to hear others thoughts about the updates that we make and to know that they improve the experience for everyone :)
Have a great day!!
