This post will help the newbies!

WELCOME TO WEALTHY AFFILIATE!

As newcomers grace the platform here at Wealthy Affiliate, they are completely engrossed in all that is offered here! Am I right? They may also be a bit overwhelmed at all the different directions in which their heads are spinning.

CREATE YOUR ACCOUNT!

Its really quite simple, though. All you have to do when you sign up is set up your account. Write an interesting bio with some nice facts about yourself. For example, what your name is, where you are from, what interests you have, your current job profession, what your goals are coming into this platform, etc.

ONLINE ENTREPRENEUR CERTIFICATION!

The next thing to do is begin the Online Entrepreneur Certification course. Here, it is very important to listen carefully to directions, because you will be implementing each step to your website.

UPGRADE TO PREMIUM!

Into the very first week, newbies make a RIVETING DISCOVERY---they really see WA as being totally legit and then the light bulb goes off! Have you ever had that LIGHTBULB MOMENT?

Ready to put this into action?

Start your free journey today — no credit card required.

The most important thing to do within the very first week as a Wealthy Affiliate is to upgrade to Premium. By doing this, you open up a whole new world of opportunity. Yes, you may be able to get by as a Starter Member, Googling your way through, but when you reach Affiliate Bootcamp and go through THAT training, you will see your business start to expand at a faster rate and progress happens! So, if at all possible, upgrade in your first week and receive a bonus.--$19 the first month.

Then you're on your way!
