Build from the Foundation Up!
Need Money to Keep Working on your site?
Sure, it takes a little money -- though that word little means different things to each of us. If you can cut out a couple of luxuries and pay for the monthly, it is easier than for those who don't have that daily lunch out to cut for the needed money.
But the truth is, WA is not a huge expense, compared to the value. It might require that you do some side gigs (writing articles for others, selling off a few things you no longer need, or even going meatless a couple of days a week--you might find you like Taco-Nights!)
So you gather the needed money and now you are ready to earn, right?
Hold on!
One of the questions I see the most is "When will I make money?"
Well, we don't have that answer. It's different for each of us. And there are many variables--your niche, your knowledge of the niche, amount of time you can spend on it, current economy and events, and yes--even a little that might be considered luck by some.
But you need that money to pay for the monthly expenses.
That "need" causes many to skip part or all of the training. After all, you can always go back later and read through, right? And how hard can it be anyway? Start the site, write a few posts, feature some affiliate links and watch the money roll in.
Not Quite!
That training that is included is invaluable. While the formula for an affiliate site might seem simple, there is more to it than first meets the eye.
My Advice?
Don't skip the training.
Go through each part, in detail, step by step.
I know, it takes time. And you are in a hurry.
Think of it as building a house.
The training is your foundation. Without a strong foundation, any work you put into the structure will most likely fail. Even if you manage to get it built, it will not be nearly as strong or long-lasting.
Your training is the all-important foundation.
Don't rush through it. Don't skip around and miss parts. And certainly, don't skip it entirely!
I advise newcomers to think of this is a year-long project at first. Sure, it may happen the first month. And sometimes it takes even longer.
But if you give it your honest, concerted effort for a year, you will most likely find success. And when you look back on your journey, you will have a growing business built on an extremely strong foundation.
Don't forget to build that foundation!
When you follow the building code, you can build quite an empire!
Have a wonderful weekend!

People should look at WA as a University that allows you the opportunity to host websites and build businesses on them. I know when I attended KSU, I didn't constantly walk around asking, "Will I make money?" Let me tell you--a university education cost exponentially more that the cost here in WA!

And you make a very good point, Jeff. People go to universities for years before they even have a chance to turn their education into a bank account. Here, for less than any college tuition plan, you have the chance to build a successful business before the 2-year students have graduated!
I agree the faster you (much more content)go the faster you get there as some of the recent short termers have proven,

Thanks for the timely post Diane. I have set a year for myself in the first instance and fully appreciate that there are no guarantees. However, if I follow the training diligently, I will also have added value to myself over the period, which is transferrable. That in itself is a bonus and at a very affordable price.
