Adding Your Affiliate ID
For affiliates, this is where things get really powerful. You can customize these links with your affiliate ID to ensure that any sign-ups are tracked back to you. Here’s how you can do it:
- If you want to promote a football niche, you would use a link like this: https://www.wealthyaffiliate.com?image=football&a_aid=YOURID
- Or, if you want to promote a specific business idea related to football: https://www.wealthyaffiliate.com?idea=football&image=football&a_aid=YOURID
This is great for getting hyper-relevant with your marketing. Replace YOURID with your affiliate ID, and you will be able to get credit for sharing any of these styles of affiliate links. You can even start the search for them by customizing the link with both the idea and the image. It’s never been easier to tailor your promotions to the audience you’re targeting!
Final Thoughts
I encourage you to share your affiliate link on at least a few platforms today. Simply copy your link and share it—if someone joins and upgrades through your link, you’ll start earning commissions. If you have any questions or need further assistance, feel free to drop a comment.
I look forward to seeing your first earnings from promoting Wealthy Affiliate!

This is a brilliant lesson, Kyle -- thanks so much.
I am trying to implement this on my posts by embedding the link in this way: www.wealthyaffiliate.com/?idea=affiliatemarketing&image=affiliatemarketing&a_aid=YOURID
Since affiliate marketing is my chosen niche, I have put "affiliate marketing" into the structure.
Does this make sense, Kyle?
Looking forward to your reply.
Cheers
Yeah, you can do that. You can put a space between it so it looks correct if you want. Here is how the link is formatted with the space:
https://www.wealthyaffiliate.com/?idea=affiliate marketing&image=affiliatemarketing&a_aid=YOURID
That is cleaner, but this is a good strategy here. :)
I’m not sure this is working correctly. I don’t get the option to show affiliate links via the revenue options. I have found it on the top screen and can copy it. The last box in revenue options isn’t showing on my devices. However if I go onto favourites and click it’s showing below and not as they on screen training is showing
OK, glad you are sorted here Kerry. If you need a hand with anything else moving forward, just reach out. :)
When I do this it does not show my affiliate link. It does not have my id number at the end.
Finding Your Affiliate Link:
Scroll down to the "Revenue Opportunities" section. You’ll see "Wealthy Affiliate" listed at the top.
Click on "View My Affiliate Links." This will reveal your unique affiliate link. This link is unique to you and can be shared anywhere—on social media, forums, emails, text messages, or directly with friends and family.
Did you click the dollar sign in the top bar then links & tracking? That’s where you find your WA affiliate link.
The only place I can see it is if I click on the dollar sign. You are supposed to see it if you click on My Affiliate Link also
Yeah, get it from the $ icon, this is your affiliate link. You can use that link anywhere you like, the same one should be in your Revenue Opportunity section and I have the team looking into why yours is missing there. So not worry, we will get that sorted for you. ;)
Great post, the cooking link doesn't work though, it has extra digits at the end - see attached image
Once you remove that, it then brings up a cooking image.
Very cool with these new bespoke front pages.

More questions, Kyle (can't seem to stop experimenting), I have copied my affiliate ID into the search query.
And, I find that the it does take me to the main WA web page for sign ups, my affiliate ID is present.
However, when I click on "Pricing" -- which is where I am trying to take the audience to sign up for the free start up package -- my affiliate ID has been truncated.
Does this mean that any sign ups will not be attributed to me?
Or, is it OK?
Cheers
Yeah, that is fine. That is how we display it as one navigates, your cookie is already set and that is also an acceptable format that will set your cookie as well. So completely OK! :)
Thank you, Kyle. You’re very kind. Cheers
