My Experience

I came across Wealthy Affiliate months ago, but since I didn't understand it, I didn't pursue it. I have wanted my own website for years now and I just never went through with it. So when I looked up the best ways to build a website, I would come across WA. The reviews confused me a little because it was about making money, affiliate marketing within a niche. It just wasn't what I was looking for. I just wanted to make a website. So it was easily looked over.

Well months past and I still don't have a website. I made one in the past but I didn't understand the building process as much as I liked and at the time I couldn't afford to own the domain. There was a lot of tech issues with this, that I didn't understand.

So I looked up on google, "the best ways to build a website and make money too". Many results showed up. I found one that I was really interested in. I listened to a long review about it and clicked on their website (I choose to not say the name of the business, because I don't want to speak against it. At the time was just out of my price range), to my surprise been too expensive. I'd click on another website and it was even more expensive! We are talking $500-1,000 to sign up! I mean come on.

Then I came across WA. I remember seeing it before but passed it up. This time I looked into it. It had all the criteria I was looking for. It had the website building, understand traffic and building trust in Google, also helps you understand how to make money. Everything was broken down into easy steps to understand. Something that I greatly appreciated.

For the first time, I knew exactly what I was getting into before I signed up. It is free to sign up and you start enrolling in their classes. There are 5 levels of training and each training has about 30-40 tasks in each lesson. This is the first time I've decided to do something and don't have a quiet little voice saying, 'What did I get myself into now?'. haha

In the past when I signed up for things, it happened at a blur. Sign up now, then ask questions. Well with WA, I could take as long as I wanted for free. I ended up signing up on day 4 (not counting the months of searching). I really wanted to make sure this was something I wanted to do. I don't regret it at all and so proud of what WA helped me create. I finally get to see my dream in reality! Here is my website.

Progress

My progress thus far is monumental for me and finally, I'm passionate about something and it's only growing! I have been with Wealthy Affiliate for almost a month now. and on level 4 training, task 24. I can see why people who sign up think they are in it to get-rich-quick and give up after a month or so.

I have been treating this like college or a job. Training on average is 30 hours a week. Since I'm a stay-at-home mom, I get up around 5 am and finish no later than noon. At this pace, I didn't even learn about how to make money until my 3rd week! Building content that will help you make money hasn't even been in effect long enough for anyone to see it!

Then I didn't even learn about social media until the 4th level, which was about the 4th week for me. This is what helps you promote your website. I think the reason why the training does this is because your website transforms with in that ONE week! The step-by-step method really walks you through a blooming process in your website. Kyle also stresses during this time of how it's not about making a sale. It's about meeting the needs of your audience, building respect and trust.

This business is a trust platform. Show integrity and people will follow. Yes, the business is reviewed for making a lot of money, but the money is the result of trust. The success is fully in the hands of the person's authenticity and the ability to communicate that in their content.

Success

My success lies in believing in myself. This program has taught me so much. I've taken on a responsibility. It has shown me more about myself that I didn't know I was capable of. I can't wait to finish my training. Who knows how far I've gone by then!

I've achieved more than I thought I would! When I used to have a blog, the content I created took almost a year. In the time that I've been with WA (not even 1 month), I have built a website, built valuable content that is equal to the amount of the blog from before, incorporated affiliate links, learned about building rank in Google, being indexed by Google, learn about keywords and SEO, found valuable free resources that makes my website unique and beautiful and built a confidence that helps other people that need help like I did only 3-4 short weeks earlier.

That was something else I love about this business is because there are so many people like me in the community. We can all relate in not only our successes but even our frustrations! Iron truly sharpens iron in this community. I have already made some great friends through here. That to me is priceless.

Thank you for reading my update! I really appreciate you guys!

Sincerely,
