100k Words - 3 Income Streams
So it's taken me a while, but I've finally hit 100k words.
The number of words written doesn't tell the whole story though.
These words were all written for one website that I have persevered with - despite entering an ultra-competitive niche that I wouldn't have chosen with hindsight,
I stuck with it, because I wanted to use my first website as a learning opportunity - to make the mistakes and learn from them so that my next site will be far, far better.
With all that I have learnt, I believe that with my next websites I'll be where I am now in just 9 months, rather than the 16 months it's taken to get here.
And where is here?
Well, it''s a fairly modest set of achievements, but which, once scaled, will be increasingly fruitful.
- Regular Amazon Affiliate Sales
- Regular commissions from other affiliate programs
- Monthly Ad Revenue
Most importantly, I've developed a process that builds on all we learn here at WA, to achieve this within around 9 months.
Ideally, website number 1 will fund the creation of website 2 next year and so on... rinse and repeat.
For context, I'm working a 50-hour week in my 9-5 which funnily enough, even if I reach my income goals here at WA, I won't quit as I LOVE what I do.
So if I can still build out my online business while doing a 50-hour week, anybody can.
Be encouraged!

Inspiring post! It proves what you put into it and what you will get out of it. Depends on the commitment to the goal.
Thank you for posting this! It's a huge encouragement to me. I also work full-time and don't want to give up what I do, but I want that financial freedom, so I'm trying to squeeze in as much time as possible working on my website.
