The SituationSo, I've been a member of WA since June 2013. I really started with a lot of gusto and turned my WA promotion site into something that was making me a few hundred dollars a month or so. Once I got to that point I created a second super-small niche site promoting a certain type of headphones on Amazon.During that time, life has happened. I've gotten married, became super involved in my church, lead our youth group with my wife, and lots of other time commitments...not to mention my

So, my full-time job is for a monument company. Yes, we make fancy rocks to put on dead people.

The only other site I've ever made or earned from was my WA Affiliate site which has made anywhere from $50-350/month. Even though this first sale was only $0.69 it w

Well, it seems like it's been ages since I've written a blog here at WA...and it has, almost 7 months! A lot has happened since then, both on my website and personal life (part of the reason I've been away for so long). Despite not being around WA much, other than communicating with my referrals, I've still been plugging away at my primary website.
