I completely understand where you are coming from when you question ANY online business training program or affiliate platform. You are definitely not alone.

It should be at the top of your list of tasks of research and due diligence to be cautious of every company you come across online, especially when pulling out your wallet and spending your money, hard earned or not.

Agreed, you don't know me from the next internet marketer either, but allow me to have a little bit of your trust and you just may be getting the best advice of your life in the next few minutes...

Is Wealthy Affiliate a scam, some money hungry team of criminals out to get your last dollar and tease your will and determination with smoke and mirrors or unrealistic promises and fake financial propositions?

CAUTION: You may get a glimpse of your future if you finish reading this article. Fair warning... If you need to know the truth, keep reading. Wealthy Affiliate is indeed a fantastic place to be, especially for beginners just starting out online.

From my years of experience with internet businesses, if I was to give only one reason to stick with the WA crew and not move toward solo is this:

The overall high-quality content and professional training you are provided with on top of the top-of-the-line professional business hosting and added professionally designed WordPress themes, templates, plugins, done-for-you tracking, domain transfers, staging, and community engagement (priceless), I guarantee you will not find this kind of expert quality at the very small price WA charges, anywhere online.

I will bet anyone a month of WA Premium paid subscription that if they spent a whole 24 hours searching the internet, they would not find this amount of training and expertise for less than upwards of $50-$100K. I've been with WA a fairly decent amount of time, roughly a year all together, having jumped around a lot, and I've only scratched the surface of the magnitude of knowledge at my fingertips.

I believe 100% that Kyle an Carson have truly over-delivered and should be charging as much as $497 per month for regular premium and I would estimate a Premium Plus membership to be at least $1k or more per month EASY.

There are courses online right now that can't touch even the first 10 lessons of WA (free), that are charging participants $997 just to get in the door... and those 10 lessons are just the beginning and a general foundation for the first step of building your business online.

So I say, yes, it is WELL worth whatever they want to charge per month and should be taken advantage of before the WA admin and fam decide to double up or even triple their bank roll.

I am amazed that it hasn't happened yet.

It is truly amazing the heart and compassion these owners have for their customers.

That would be the number 2 reason. It's hard to find a more caring bunch of people who loyally want to help you succeed. I am one of them. I am not an admin here, but I truly enjoy helping people succeed with anything online, even small things such as creating a domain name or where to click to transfer one.

The feeling you get knowing your small piece of advice could lead to someone building a business that could change lives some day... is worth every penny.

That's why I am still here with this awesome community, beside the fact I've spent many years learning online elsewhere and have barely cracked the surface of what I'm progressively discovering here at WA.

With their help, my hard work, as well as help from the awesome members here, I will eventually have a thriving platform of my own to help many others within the community over on my own site.

The homeless and less-fortunate are definitely in for a treat when it's finally completed and ready to take registrations full force.

When that happens, I will be proud to call Wealthy Affiliate a long-time partner and contributor.

Until then, I will humbly do my best to do my part in keeping up with my duties as an internet marketer to share in the "wealth" in many forms of what we all have while we're here... by following the training, staying consistent with the given routine (easy to deviate from if taken for granted, which I'll admit am sparingly guilty of), being patient in knowing that the money will always come as long as I participate in building and am helping others progress in the meantime (there is no easier place than here to do that), and give my best effort to stay focused in the belief that the process is real and to trust the system and follow it's course.

We all have the biggest opportunity we will ever have, past, present, or future... to listen to our hearts and tell our minds that our hearts our right this time and dive deep into what the universe had planned for you all along.

If you can just try not to get lost in the overwhelming amount of training and stay on the path that has been laid out for you step by step, literally take one step or lesson at a time and implement, then you will start to see a progress that you cannot and will not find or experience on any other platform.

As mentioned earlier, this is just from my own opinion and experience.

So chin up, chest out, shoulders back...walk in the room or arrive onto the platform or page as if everyone was waiting for just you to show up. Smile and be strong with confidence that you have been taught well with your belief at its most high, and own it.

I'll also admit that this can be hard to do sometimes. Again from experience, this gets way easier every time you put yourself out there.

That next level becomes your NEW comfort zone, kind of like riding a bike... the first time you're uncertain and afraid. You somehow have faith in that someone that is holding up your bike after they took your training wheels off... then you ride alone.

At first, the bike is wobbly and you have some trouble keeping balance. You may crash a few times... scuff a knee... and then an elbow. You may need a helmet at first and maybe some pads for cushion while your trainer expects that you should fall the first couple of rides.

Soon you will be racing the track as a leader performing just as tough and trained with high-quality like the rest of them.

So show up, do the work, train hard, and whatever you do, please don't doubt yourself. If you don't believe in yourself, no one can...

Those times while you are doubting your abilities, you will not be open enough to receive everything the training has to offer.

If you hold back... so will the process. If you deviate, the plan moves forward without you.

Much to your success and I wish you great learning experiences that move mountains in your life and the ones you adore and are here for.

Keep pushing... just keep pushing. You are worth it... and so is Wealthy Affiliate and all of its generous plans for you. May you have 10,000% confidence in all that you implement from here on out with every online endeavor.

It's the least I could ask for you as a member of this great community.

Many blessings,

Dan

If W.A. are in the minds of people who think that it is a scam, then over one-million of its members must be scammers. W.A. is a platform that teaches people how to build their affiliate business from the ground up.
It takes time to do this. I see people who just got started and are expecting to make it big overnight. If it was that easy, we would all be wealthy. But we all have different goals and we must learn the ins and outs first in order to see success.
Your analogy about crashing can't be anymore realistic than when going through success. The obstacles are there. We just have to find a way to get over them. Great post friend! All the best!

Absolutely, the crashes will come. Whether you crash and burn is up to the driver and your trust in the trainer. Get back on your bike, reboot your path, remember what you're being taught, focus and implement.

It gets easier every time.

Hi Dan,
Helping others, when I can, is the basic thrust of my success at Wealthy Affiliate. I believe that Wealthy Affiliate, without a doubt, is the best affiliate marketing platform in the world.

Bill

I agree Bill. Thanks for sharing, sir.

Can't disagree with you here Dan, well said my friend.

Thank you!

Always welcome my friend!

Hey Dan this is an excellent endorsement of WA and all the insane 'value for money' benefits the platform offers. After reading this I want to run out and rejoin lol. All the best to you.
Hugh

I know what you mean... and it's okay for people to come back in after realizing what they've been missing and still have. I was one of those people.

Thanks for sharing, sir.

Great content Dan. I agree with you about the cost for Premium and Premium Plus. I arrive at my conclusion having been away from the platform for around 2 months, primarily looking for better hosting

In doing that, I realised just how affordable WA is and what you get for the money CAN'T be matched outside, so yes, as long as you are prepared to follow the process and work at this, your dream will be fullfilled

Thank you Dave... you touched on the main objectives exactly to the point. Outside of WA, you may find treasurable principles and training, just not all in one place and at such an affordable investment.

Thank you for commenting.

You are welcome my friend I enjoyed reading this post and let's hope this post gets picked up the search engines for you
