When is a "Free Trial" not a "Free Trial"

So many times I look at something to do with my business and think to myself maybe I would like to give that a go. So off i go and fill in all the paraphernalia to sign up and right at the end, up pops the dreaded "enter payment details to continue with your free trial".

Now if I want to continue with the product after the "Free Trial" then i would be only too pleased to pay for it, but until I have tried it out why should I give them my payment details.

I find this antic so short sighted. I'm sure I wont be the only one that gets to that point in the sign up and then clicks the big red cross at the top right hand side of the page.

Maybe I would have continued with the "Free Trial" had I not had to give over payment details, and who knows they may have had another paying customer, but as it goes they will never know.

This is where Wealthy Affiliate score above the majority of it's competitors, you get the chance to try the whole project for a very reasonable amount of time, and then you are completely in charge of going that one step further by subscribing to the program.

Basically Kyle and Carson have so much confidence in their product that they don't have to ask for money to show how their program works, because it works and they know it.,
