Easy Like Sunday Morning
Blogger for Years
Making websites and write blogs come easy for me since I have been doing it for a long while now.
What has not seem to come easy was making money from those sites and blogs for many years.
Chose to Grind Out WA
I chose to go through the WA Boot Camp and work on an affiliate site to help direct people to WA.
In the first month of really putting my 'money' where my mouth as I was able to invite twenty people, six of which set up a pictures and a bio, and two went premium.
That alone made me more money than an entire year with adsense! Now I'm hooked on finding ways to bring more people to WA, not only for the hope that they convert but show them how effective this community is!
Focus has Shifted
My new site is still not to the number of daily visitors I would like but I have been been getting between twenty and fifty visitors per day. Which is mind blowing for only being in existence for a month.
My personal blog has been on hold and I have only created maybe two posts there in this past month. While my new site has around thirty five posts for it's first month.
If you are new here keep chopping down the tree; it will always take more than one stroke with the axe to cut it down. If you have any questions I am here to help.

Thank you for sharing this - gives me hope to keep plugging away.
I've noticed that you are very knowledgeable, and VERY helpful, with everything internet connected, thus thought I'd better follow you. Goodonya!
Thanks you very much for the compliments. I have been working at blogging/internet for years with no hope of making any real money. Then I found Wealthy Affiliate, stick to it and ask questions; someone here will have your answer.
I appreciate you keeping us in the loop and sharing, especially since you are showing it CAN be done -- just think of the people that can get inspiration or get motivated by how you have shared. If you can get results in such a saturated market as affiliate marketing that really bodes well for other markets not so competitive I would think. I also like that you give details instead of just vague summaries. Thanks for the excellent information!
Not a problem Mike. I would like to be making more but it is just the beginning and I could not be happier. Once my newest website gains high traffic things will really take off. Thanks for reading :D
Thanks indeed for those words of encouragement. This is a journey of thousand miles...one step at a time will do.
Cheers
Love your Title. Knew I had to read this. Good post but I guess I was expecting something else. I feel like maybe like most people that our lives is a song.
By "money," are you referring to PPC? Any advice for someone trying to succeed in that area (with a boot camp site)?
Money from Adsense was PPC and I would be lucky to make a dollar from it every month. With Adsense, it is needed to be tweaked and tested constantly. Some methods work for one blog and not for another.
I'm not a fan of adsense. It looks tacky and it directs visitors away when you could be converting as an affiliate, and that's if you're successful with it. I meant ppc like google adwords, bing ads, and facebook ads.
Oh, I'm sorry. The only campaigns I have done are PPC through Facebook. I have wrote a few blog posts about them here at WA. My latest campaign yielded the best results in gaining 'likes' on my Facebook page.
