Hi Mandy,
I suggest you follow the training. It's the only way you get around.

I assume you mean publishing a post. No, you don't get paid for that. In Affiliate Marketing you promote other people's products and services through affiliate links on your website, and you have to create content on your website that will attract an audience. When people visit your site and click on the affiliate links, you will get paid for that. However, you first have to set up your website, create a lot of content by writing numerous posts on your niche subject and be patient as it will take some months before you see the first results. Determination and perseverence definitely pay off.

You don't get paid just for publishing something. The way you earn money via affiliate marketing is if someone come to your site, clicks through to a merchant and buys something, you earn a commission.

If you're doing the affiliate bootcamp, your blog posts will generate traffic through Google when you target keywords. When those visitors sign up for Wealthy Affiliate you will begin to earn money.

This post here explains the basics of how it works: Understanding How to Make Money Online But instead of making money from Amazon or something, you'll be making money from Wealthy Affiliate.

Hopefully this helps, feel free to private message me if you have other questions.

No. You put up blogs to create traffic, after you gain readers, trust, and ranking 12-15 months, you begin to sell items through the likes of Amazon for which you get an affiliate commission of about 4-6%
