Thanks Doris! A happy customer here... : )

Glad to hear you had a similar experience Donna! Best wishes for you as well! Cheers and have a great Sunday! Dave : )

Try it, I think you will like it...If you want to save time, do a little research as I did so you know the domain is available and it will go even quicker...I was so shocked at how fast it was to get completed! Cheers M8! Dave : )

Hi, William...

I bought a premium theme that has the framework included for a membership site...The one I went for is the best selling theme on Envato (over 14k sales), but certainly, there are plenty of other options...

I went this route because I wanted something that I could get stood up quickly and have it look professional, be functional for members, and fully responsive for use with all devices right out of the figurative box...

There are landing pages, profile pages, forum templates, training templates, a visual page building tool, a slider, and etc. all included.

So it offered real value for the price...

Many features and a very versatile theme...

The price was a consideration, such a theme goes for $2000 if you are going to charge for membership! But to get around that, I am providing two levels of membership - both will be free....

So the single license was considerably cheaper, and I have all of the features...

Of course, it cannot compare to what Wealthy Affiliate has, but most definitely it will suffice, look good, and be useful for members... ...

Time is of the essence for me, so this is a solution that makes sense for a number of reasons...It will take care of member's needs and our company's needs...

Cheers!

Yes, Graham, I have gone through some headaches when buying domains in the past so it was like a real relief to have it go so painlessly...WA sure does Rock! : )

Hehe, thanks Thomas! Cheers! Dave : )

Hi, Valerie, I am always thinking I need no more domains, since we have close to 100 domains already, but we still need one from time to time, as was the case today...

Based on what I experienced, over time we will switch them all here...The benefits outweigh the cost I think...The reason I say the cost is that there is an expense when you switch over...

As I understand it (from discussions long ago when the new feature was added to WA) when you switch you will have to pay a renewal fee to the old registrar...

But, you get an extension on your registration of the domain so it really means you are setting yourself up for less work later...The old registrar makes money on the domain one more time, and the new one is set to make money later on...

With Wealthy Affiliate, you get the additional protection from prying eyes that normally will cost you extra for with other registrars...

Anyway...

This is the first time we needed a domain since that WA domain tool introduction so now I can vouch for the convenience and the ease going through the purchase process...

Why waste my time to add this post?

Maybe yet another testimonial post to add to the many that in totem provide social proof of the veracity of the Wealthy Affiliate platform is not needed, but I think it's still important...

There was someone (Moon?) who went through a lot of work putting together a single post that had numerous testimonials on the success different members have had over the years using the Wealthy Affiliate training...

When you look at the many instances on one page like that, the positive impact this platform has provided to the industry is truly amazing I think...

As an affiliate of Wealthy Affiliate, I need to show through expanding on the benefits, adding in my personal experience, provide relevant social proof (as this post is) and go deeper into the 'why' - as in deeper than the what and how...

This is reaching out to prospects by tapping into their needs and wants, their emotions...

When you approach them on this emotional level, they may not even realize it, but they are more likely to be subconsciously convinced to take action...

So this current social proof example added to the multitude of examples over the years helps build that strategy mentioned above...

There is a method in my madness! : )

Oh boy, I see I have rambled on again hehe...Sorry and have a great day!

Cheers!

Agree, it just makes things easier...Plus the feature works seamlessly, no mess no fuss...A good way to start my workday here in Dubai (and so early in the morning too!)...

Two thumbs up! : )

Yeah, I thought about that too, I really like that benefit! Free is for me too hehe...
