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!

nope not working for me. this is what I am putting in...
https://www.wealthyaffiliate.com?image=football&a_aid=bfe08b34
And also when I click on any of the niche specific links in the written part of this training none have a picture of that particular niche. I am using a MacBook Air Safari browser and it won't work.
However... I decided to open the Chrome browser and for some reason the links work in a different browser is what I found. Hmm!
Any reason why this might be?
When I click your link it’s working just fine. It’s just something on your end.
Try restarting your machine or looking at it from mobile. 👍🏼 I’m on safari and they’re all visible.
I also noticed something else if someone can help me understand better. I copied and pasted my ID code for the WA affiliate program into the football link just like the video and training said, but when I click on that link and it takes me to the page, it does not have a football on the page like the training video shows. It just has a black background. Maybe it is an older training video and the football link is no longer available or why would it not have the football image when I click on the link like the training video says? Just trying to understand. Thank you.
It works 👍🏼
I checked it just now to make sure. You just gotta make sure you get that "&" in before the "a_aid..."
No prob man. When basic functions aren’t working it’s usually just something as simple as a typo or even your machine itself blocking something from showing. Nothing you won’t figure out in the end 👍🏼
OK Kyle you hit a nerve in this training video talking about football and providing a link to sign up for WA. It gets me excited to think about earning from something I am using myself and it's potential. My niche is in the NFL Football niche. However, here is my dilemma - and anyone else can chime in too if they know of a solution... I don't get on social media! I am from a different generation (no doubt there has to be other successful people here that have been like me) but I never get on Facebook or Pinterest or LinkedIn or the like. I have an account on all of them I think. but because I don't get on there and have never spent the time on there over the years I have no followers of much to say so. Therefore, other then developing my new website, how would I promote the WA link other than through an article at my site, organic search or Google ads? Will I have to start spending time developing a following on Facebook now? Is all this Affiliate Marketing stuff better suited for someone using all these social media platforms?
Think of your approach to this business the same as you would any other business. Let's say you opened up a barber shop and someone said it would be a great idea for you to do some commercials and maybe radio spots to get the word out. You'd say "I've never done commercials or radio spots before," but that's because you never had a business before 👍🏼
Now that you're building an online business you'll learn about all the ways to drive traffic to your website via content marketing, social media marketing, email marketing, PPC marketing, etc. You'll find what works for you and build on that.
You're going to learn about how it all works step by step, so just focus on building the foundation now. All that fun stuff comes later.
Thanks Eric, Yup I did plan on building the foundation first and I am a retired small business owner so I am very familiar with learning new ways to promote my business within time as I went along. Thanks for the encouragement.
That’s the best way to approach it. Take it as you go and learn a little more every day. 👍🏼
Hi Kyle,
Thanks for another great lesson.
What is the best way to share this WA link? I used the main link to share and I can see people clicked on the link to WA home page, but that's as far as it goes.
Do you have any tips and trick that you can share, please?
Thanks

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.
