Hi KyleAnn, thank you for adding me to your list here on WA. I have been doing it for about six months now, and being really old it takes me time to get there if you know what I mean. We live in Atlanta, GA and are retired now. Where do you live? I got to start doing the affiliate program and start earning a little money. How are you doing with it, or are you just starting? Take care and stay in Touch.. Don Raposo

Old?? LOL... I’m probably older than you are!

Hi KyleAnn, no I doubt it, I am 82 years old and will be 83 in September of this year, but I am doing great health wise and have no problems doing what ever I want to. Where do you live? Take care. Regards, Don Raposo

Well Don, I guess you have me beat!
I’ll be 64 in March, and live in Olathe, Kansas, just outside Kansas City.
Go Chiefs!!
You take care too!

Sorry, you lost yesterday, but it was a great game I watched the whole game. That New Orleans team got robbed by that bad call from the referee on that pass with 23 seconds on the clock. Have a great one. Don

Thank you Paul, yes I see what you mean about WA. I have only been at it for about five months, and just starting the catch on. I am about to start getting affiliates now that I know a lot more than I did when I started. How is going for you these days, have you been doing that pretty good? Take care

Hi ? I have been watching you a lot on live chat, you seem to know a lot about WA. I have been into for only 5 months and just getting started. I am going to start working on getting affiliates now that I have been here a while. I am 82 years old and it takes me a little time to grasp all of this but I am getting there. Keep up the good work, you are appreciated Don Raposo

Godspeed Don!

Thanks I am going to need it.

Hi, I think I am about to start doing the affiliate part of this after six months of learning. I posted about a dozen pages on my three websites, "bargain-hanger.com being the main one. Where would you advise me to go and start learning about doing the affiliate marketing with all the different sites out there like Amazon, eBay, Yahoo, target etc? Which ones would you recommend that I start with because I am not that technical yet?

Don, I'm lost ...

HERE ate WA you are asking me where to learn affiliate marketing?!

I am sorry to confuse you. I am just looking for hints to get started a little faster. I know you folks know a lot more than I do. I went back and started watching Jay's live events and I am picking up a lot from them. Take care and have a great day Don

Wow Robert that is a lot of blogs you have posted. I am 82 and just have been here for five months and I am just starting to figure it all out. It does take time, but I got plenty of that now that I am retired. We live in Atlanta, how about you?

No probs Don and if/when you read my blogs make sure you choose the ones that will help you in conjunction with whatever training you are currently taking.

Also you may not be aware of this but it’s a good idea (only if you are interested in your rank within WA) to click the 'Like' icon within a comment if you like it as I have done with yours.

Obviously you don't have to click every single comment or you will be here all day doing nothing else.

But to click the ones you like that are replies to your own comments will be reflected in your WA ranking because it shows you are getting involved with the community.

I'm a prolific writer as are quite a few members.
If you read my profile you would see I am a Scot who lives in our capital city of Edinburgh.
Have a great Saturday.
Robert

on my DNA I got back from Ancestry I am 23% Scot & Irish, and 23% English, just to name a few. There was also German, French, and Portuguese and Spains. But those two represent almost half of my DNA. Have you had your's done?

No, but my eldet daughter is creating our Family Tree.
It has been done before by a cousin and she traced the family back well over a thousand years.
Enjoy your Sunday.
Robert

That is cool about your family tree. On my wife's side Patricia Ann Prather, Raposo I traced her family back to the 9th century in Wales they were nobles and left when Cromwell took over and took a lot of the wealth from the nobles. I love finding out about history. My Dad's side came from England or Ireland and went to the Azores in the sixteenth century, I need to connect with Ancestry on the world information and find out more about that other side of the family. Probably will when I slow down from this WA. Have a great one Robert.

No probs Don, its always interesting finding out where you came from originally.
You get stuck in WA you get in touch.
Onwards and Upwards.
Robert

Thanks, Robert. Have you been doing the affiliate thing making commissions on sales? If so tell me which blog I can go to and learn how to do it? I think I am about ready to graduate to that step after six months learning about all this. Hope you're not freezing to death in Scotland this winter. I remember when I was in high school in Switzerland they never kept the buildings warm enough for me. That's why I like living in Atlanta GA. Have a great day. Don Raposo

You just have to pick a Niche that you have experience and knowledge of and promote products within that Niche.
The secret really is finding a great search term (keyword/keyword phrase)
Marketing online really is a learning curve but with your background in Sales this should not be a problem.
You have transferable skills and you can use them online just like you did off line.
All my blogs contain information that will help you.
You can also type a description of what you want to know in the top question box and you are sure to get choices.
Robert

Thanks, Robert I will do a search of your blogs. I just figured out where all of Jay's videos are, dumb me in Live Events. I never looked at that before the other day. Each one is an hour long so it is going to take me some time to get thru the ones I want. My daughter in law lost her father this morning, so I am going to go babysitting at 3 PM today till their Dad (my son) comes home from work tonight. She is Mexican and is going to fly to Mexico City ASAP. The boys are 8 and 7 years old, and their grandfather stayed with them all last summer here in Atlanta so they got to know him. Well have a nice weekend, hope the weather is halfway decent there. Take care. Don

No probs Don and sorry about your family's loss.
Our weather is typical Scottish and freezing.
No change forecast either.
Now I'm off home for eats.
Robert

Yes, that is life, we are here for only a short time and then we have to move on. Got to get some work done here though. Have a good weekend even though most of it has already past. Don

Not past yet Don, we still have tomorrow.

Yes I treasure every day now before I thought it would never end. Don

Onwards and Upwards and a new week ahead.

Thanks, you have a good week too>

Hi Loes thanks for the following. I am 82 years old and I have been doing WA for about five months now, and I am just catching on to it. I haven't made any money, but that is typical I guess. I wil check out your blogs later when I slow down We live in Atlanta, where do you live? Thanks Don Raposo

Hi Don, you´ll get where you want, in time. I am living in the Netherlands

I guess you are in the middle of winter there in the Netherlands. I passed thru Amsterdam on my world traveling years ago. Never left the airport and visited the city. How are you doing with WA? I have been on it for six months now and I have decided I am ready to start doing some marketing with the affiliates out there. Have you been doing that, and how is it going? Take care and stay warm. No snow here in Atlanta and I like it that way. Don Raposo

To bad you never entered the Netherlands, Schiphol is not exactly representative for out country, I am doing just fine, I started this adventure to get my message out there, and I succeed in that everyday a little more, you can find websites on my profile. It's getting colder this week with some serious winter weather.
Success with your endeavor, Don

Hi Loes thanks for the reply. Tell me a little more about your message you want to get out? Are you working outside the house or just doing the internet these days? Don Raposo

My message is spiritual, and equal a kick-ass to the society, you can find the reasons for me being on the internet on my Dutch kleurboekjes website ( it has a tramslation button)

I can't find the link, guess they didn't want to post it, and I couldn't translate anything either. Try again. Don

You can find all my websites on my profile page, you get there when you click on my picture

Hi Dino, thanks for the following. Yes age is just a number and I am so lucky to be in perfect health and doing well. We live in Atlanta and where are you from? Take care and talk with you later I have been doing WA for about five months now.

Dino

Hi Dino, glad to hear I am an inspiration for you. Yes, I have been really fortunate with my health and strength to do anything I want to. It is all in what you do to take care of yourself and what you eat. What kind of work do you do in Alberta, or are you just doing the internet thing? I am about to start doing some marketing here with WA I think I have learned enough to get started, how about you? Have a great day. Don Raposo

Hellos Don

Dino

Hi Dino, sorry to hear about your Dad's passing. My condolences to the family.
Sounds like you have a full plate doing all that you spoke of. I am 82 years old now and in excellent health. I had a beautiful cabin cruise in Panama City Florida and lost it to that damn hurricane Michael in October. I hope to start making money here on the internet and replace it someday. I didn't have it insured, dummy me, but I didn't expect a major hurricane at the marina. What kind of work did you do before you retired, teaching? We live in Atlanta, where do you live? Take care
Best regards,
Don

WOW Don

Sorry to hear about that loss it would take the wind out of your sails for a while for certain.

I worked with some good guys in Asia from Florida who toke a hit on that Hurricane also, but I think they all had insurance.

Well, Myman we are all learning, and sometimes with life, it has a tendency to give us the exams FIRST and the lesson after.

Before I semi-retired was in Operations of Life saving equipment, process and manpower in the Oil and Gas sector

Started in Alberta Canada and finished in Asia, came back and we are such a deep energy crisis that I do not think I will ever see my career active in this field again. (at least 5 years)

Am looking at doing the teaching thing now, because it will put me back overseas and benefit my Online skill sets.

Anything to get me out of Canada and this Cold weather LOL

Thanks for the condolences it is appreciated.

Keep rocking it Don

I know you "Got this for certain"

Cheers from Cold Canada

Dino

My Dad went to work for ARMCO in Saudi Arabia in 1950, I was 15 in 1952 went the family joined him. They sent me off to Switzerland to finish high school. Those were great times, no jets or anything. Old DC-4 non-pressurized crossing the Atlanta at least six times in six years. That's why I live in Atlanta now, now snow. Hope you can get on with another oil company. Take care Don Raposo

Great Memories for certain Don

Thanks for sharing

And yes No snow is the AIM

Be well my man

Stay strong

Dino

HI Rich, here are a few of my websites. I have been only here for six months so I got a lot to learn yet.
bargain-hanger.com
best-opportunities.com
futureopportunites.siterubix.com
What you going to tell me about them? Don Raposo

Hi Jonathan. Thanks for following me too. Just 5 months into this and got a bunch to learn. How are you doing and where do you live? We live in Atlanta, GA and are retired.

Sorry for delay
I live in Salt Lake City

You must be covered up with snow these days, Right??

No streets are clear, but doesn’t melt
I love Salt Lake City

I use to go to Park City years ago when I was young, great skiing there. How is it going with you with WA these days? It takes a long time to learn all of this stuff, and I am just beginning to figure it all out now. Are you doing this part-time and what is your full-time job? We have 3 grown kids and have been married for 49 years now. If I can help you anyway just ask. Take care.
Best regards,

Don

Yep Park City I’m in remodeling n building
Appreciate the offer. It does take time. Weekends usually
You take care too
Jonathan

Well when your young you can do all that stuff. I don't do it anymore, thank God! Talk with you later have a great day.
Best regards, Don

Hi how are you all doing? I was looking thru some of my old stuff and saw your email. It is now five months since I have been on WA and I am finally catching on it. It does come slow for us old foks you know. We live in Atlanta, where do you both live?

Hi Don, Thanks for commenting. We are from the UK

Guess the weather is bad there in England. I have been there on short visits years ago. I am 82 years old we live in Atlanta Ga. Sounds like your PM is in for a fight there. Take care and tell me about your family and life. Thanks
Best regards,
Don

I am 23% English and 23% Irish and Scot and 19% Portuguese and 17% German and 7% French and 6% Spanish. All from my DNA which is really cool to have done. What do you know about your ancestry? Take care
Don

Hi Don, I did the Ancestry DNA test and found I was mainly French and Spanish - who knew!!!!

Thanks for following me. We live in Atlanta GA and are retired old folks. Been learning WA for about six months now, and finally catching on to it a little. How are you doing with it?

Best regards,
Don

Right now, I'm the primary caregive for my wife (she stroked last August) and I'm working as a tax accountant, albeit half-time. So, I'm doing my best to stay active in the community. Unfortunately, my web sites are suffering, but I fully expect to be back in the saddle soon!

All the best,

mitch

Thanks, keep at it and don't give up Okay. Don

Thanks, Rob, I guess you do not remember me at MLSP back in 2016 at the MLSP convention in Austin. You can check me out on facebook and you will probably remember. I want to find out more about what % WA pays for new people. That interests me too.
Call me anytime at 404 271-8391

See https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/share, but it is pretty simple.

Thanks, Jadatherapy I appreciate your comments.

Thank you and you are most welcome

Thanks, Rob I appreciate your advice. I am looking forward to working with you on this new project. Let me dig into it for a while and see how it goes. Thanks again. Don Raposo

Hi Rob, what I want to do is get some income in about 4 to six months from now. It will take me time to build my websites and get ranked on Google. Any suggestion would be great, I am eager to learn. Take care Don

If you can produce good affiliate blog posts... keyword researched, etc., and also so some basic SEO and social media marketing to promote that content... that is a good 4-6 month model. It is a production/blogging based model that just take time. Like priming a pump. Lots of work to get things started but then the flow continues with minimal effort.

If writing and blogging is to much - same idea, keyword research, etc., etc., but do VIDEO reviews and posts. SEO, Social Media Marketing to promote and away you go. Also builds long term assets like blogging. And, usually, a bit faster and more powerful but the combo of video and blogging is best.

OR... another way... is to just start promoting everything WA has available to promote using social media, forums and things like that. I'll publish a training about that method here in a few weeks because I'm setting it up to promote WA myself this way. To get an idea... visit https://twitter.com/mlm_leads which is my twitter page. This is all automated. And right now we are starting to tool it up to just cycle through over 100 blog posts, courses and other links offered by WA.

Thanks for the advice. I am still learning, I think pushing WA at first could start making me a little money, and then working my way out to my niche, finding bargains. Got any ideas?
