A New Project.

Hi there fellow WA members. I have not spent much time here at WA for the past couple of months because I have been working on a new internet marketing project. However, I am almost finished setting up this project which will be directly related to promoting Wealthy Affiliate.I am confident that it will be a huge success. As soon as it is producing results I will be posting some training on it here at WA for all of you to benefit from. It is in all of our best interests that Wealthy Affiliate c

First Yearly Referral, Awesome!

Okay, so I have been getting a few referrals lately and things are going well. I woke up this morning with a WA email telling me that I had earned another commission - great!! BUT, when I logged in to my account i didn't expect to see "$173 pending release". My first referral to pay for a years subscription. What an awesome surprise to wake up to.All I can say to fellow members is this......keep at it because this system works and this is proof!!Have a brilliant weekend eveyone :)

A Well Deserved Break!

Hello everyone and welcome to a brand new week here at Wealthy Affiliate.Today I wanted to share with you my renewed motivation to push forward. Last week I was struggling to find the inspiration to create effective content. I think it was because I was just exhausted! Over the past few weeks I have spent countless hours here at WA and working on my websites. I have no problem with that because I am loving it. However, I didn't realize how tired i had become until I lost the motivation to cont

WA Commission Rates

Hi fellow WA members.I was searching for the official WA commission percentage rates and I couldn't find anything. I wanted to advertise these rates on my website so I worked them out. Here they are if anyone else wants to know:Premium Member - 47.87% (Approx 48%) = $22.50/monthStarter Member - 23.94% (Approx 24%) = $11.25/monthThese are based on referrals paying $47 per month premium fee. Please remember that the first month bonus signup is only $19 so all commissions are less for the first mo

Testing keywords with Adwords or Bing Ads

Lately I have found that just spending a few dollars on some advert champagnes (PPC) can give me a good idea on how my keywords are going to perform when they finally get ranked in search engines.When I create a new post, I budget about $10 to run an advert for 24 hours for my keyword/keywords to show up in the top 5 search results. After 24 hours I can then see the performance of my keywords and content through things like impressions, clicks, CTR (bounce rate) and any resulting sales. If my k

I'm Feeling Grateful.

Hi fellow WA members!I am currently on a family vacation at a place called Hwange National Park which is just a short drive from my home in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe which is in Southern Africa.Life can be tough here at times in Zimbabwe as we are a struggling 3rd world country. However, I was born here and I choose to live here because I love the African bush veld and the African way of life in general.Wealthy Affiliate is giving me the opportunity to earn a much needed secondary income which allows

I am getting better and faster!

Hi to all at WA.So today I just wanted to share something with those of you who are struggling with writing your blog posts. This is the thing that scared me the most when I first started out here at Wealthy Affiliate.Call it writers block or call it whatever you want, when I first started it would take me days to write just a single article. I think half the problem with me is that I am a bit of a perfectionist and I feel that I have to review my content over and over again to make sure it's 1

Content vs Design! Is bigger better?

Hi everyone!I have been going through a load of our member's websites as an exercise to see what styles and designs are the most successful for rankings and traffic.It would appear to me that in most cases, the more straight forward and simple looking websites are the ones that seem to be getting the better results.This brings up some big questions:How does your theme affect user friendliness and page load speeds?Can this actually affect your rankings, traffic and CTR. If so, by how much?Should

Steaming Along!

I though it was time for me to post an update of my progress here at WA. I have now just created my third website. Each time I start a new project I seem to be getting better and better at it!I was struggling in the beginning to write my content and it used to take me a whole day just to complete one blog page. With practice and the help of all the excellent facilities here at WA, I am now able to do it within just a couple of hours. My webpages are receiving good traffic and I can feel that hu
