Today marks my 6-year anniversary with Wealthy Affiliate!

No, I haven’t made my first sale yet… but before you think that’s the whole story, let me show you what has happened over these six years.

📊 From 0 to 5,917 Clicks — Progress You Can’t Ignore

When I started back in 2019, I barely knew what affiliate marketing was. I wasn’t sure what niche to pick, how to build a website, or even what “SEO” meant.

Fast forward to now:

  • 5,917 raw clicks
  • 5,736 unique clicks
  • 850 content-driven clicks
  • 68 total referrals
  • 53 account creations

Most of that growth has happened in the last 12–18 months — and that’s no accident. I’ve been more consistent, more focused, and more determined.

📈 Here's a visual of how things have evolved:

💡 What I've Learned Along the Way

  • Consistency beats bursts of effort. Real growth comes from showing up, even when motivation fades.
  • Value-driven content matters. My highest click-through days have been when I focused on helping first, not just promoting.
  • The community here is invaluable. On tough days, just being around like-minded people gave me the push to keep going.

🔥 I’m Just Getting Started

Even though I haven’t made a sale yet, I now have data, a growing audience, and a much clearer idea of what’s working and what needs improvement.

2024 was a breakthrough year in terms of outreach. 2025 will be the year I convert that reach into results.

🗣️ To Anyone Just Starting Out…

If you’re new and wondering if it’s worth it — YES, it is.
If you haven’t made a sale yet — keep going.
If you’re thinking of giving up — don’t.

We all start at 0. The people who win are the ones who stick around long enough to make that first breakthrough.

Cheers! 🍺

Congrats Les! Well done! :-)

Mel

Indeed, Mr. Ambassador, indeed!

Six years and no sale?

Not on Wealthy Affiliate; however, I'm earning through Amazon Affiliates/Influencer and Youtube and Twitch channels.

Sorry to hear this, that must be really frustrating

Hello Les, This is good stuff. I'm 1 that's just getting started. On tough days, just being around like-minded people gave me the push to keep going, Never give up!

Yes, sir, never give up!

Congratulations on your 6 years here, Les, and for making that first sale!
