Hello fellow WA members!

I've been at WA for a few weeks now and I have to say that I've enjoyed my time here and am happy with how I've stuck with it, even when things get a little bit frustrating.

I dabbled in Affiliate Marketing several years ago. Back in those days, good content didn't really make much of a difference. It was all about repeating keywords and building back links. For two years I had the #1 site in Google for "pet food storage". I didn't even have to put any work into it which made it even better. Then Google changed their ranking algorithm and my site fell completely off the map. I felt pretty lost after that and didn't really know where to go from there. It was like everything I learned was a complete waste of time so I stopped Affiliate Marketing.

Fast forward to now. My full-time job has gotten to the point to where it's barely paying the bills and I needed to find a way to start making some extra money so I can do some of the things I like again, such as traveling and video games.I stumbled onto Wealthy Affiliate through a Google search and started doing the training course. Since I had done affiliate marketing before, I didn't really need any convincing that it was a viable source of income, so I joined WA Premium a day or two later. The community that has been built here by Kyle and Carson is really fantastic. I've learned so much about how Google's ranking algorithm works now and it makes a lot more sense that good content is what gets good rankings, because ultimately that's what people are looking for when they search for something online. It's a lot better now as I'm writing about something that I'm actually interested in as well, so it really doesn't feel like work most of the time.

My goal for the next three months is to be making enough money to pay for my costs, which is basically just my WA Premium membership at this point. I am confident that this is very achievable. I would also like to keep my content up, so my goal is to write at least 3-4 new blog posts a week (one every two days).

In the next 6 months, I hope to be making at least a $100 profit. I definitely think this is possible as long as I keep working as hard as I have been and don't lose focus.

So I want to thank everyone here who has helped me out during this time. You've made this experience very enjoyable and have contributed in your own way to everything I've achieved here so far. If you have a chance, please check out my site and leave me a comment!
