7 Years of WA bliss

I woke this morning to a new Badge notification. It seems that I joined WA a full 7 years ago.

I have come a long way since that day in 2010. I found WA in the early part of July via a blog from Eddy Salomon.https://my.wealthyaffiliate.co... and couldn't decide if this was a legitimate way to make online income.

After cogitating on it while I vacationed in Maine with my family and eating Lobster until we couldn't anymore, I returned and joined on August 2nd.

Shortly after I joined I qualified (yes, we had to qualify for certain training back then) to take a 30 day email course on writing for online success from one of our senior members. (Marcus). I even recall Jay's first Friday night hangout. It wasn't recorded for posterity but I seem to recall that it was on basic html. I told Jay that my brain was full and I think he fell out of his chair laughing.

Back in those days WA was a forum site. The interaction that we have today didn't exist. WA has come a long way since then.

The internet has also changed considerably. What worked back in those days was article marketing with Ezine articles and eventually a new upstart called Squidoo. Ezine is still around but Squidoo is now kaput (sold to hub pages when Google slapped the Article directories).

Along the way, Jay has been providing pearls of wisdom and Kyle and Carson have been enhancing the WA experience with new tutorials (I know some of them feel old, just be patient they will be updated again soon. WA has a truckload of content) and features that are beyond belief.

I certainly feel that I have gotten my money's worth with this experience. I will be here for a long time yet.
