What if you could develop a long-term, passive online income that wasn't tied to Social Security?

Only whiz kids, someone who already knows computer code or people with a connection to a Silicon Valley tech guru can do it, right?

Not necessarily.

Like millions of others you can do it by becoming a member of Wealthy Affiliate.

Imagine a computer savvy and disabled grandma who reads about how easy it is to make money blogging. Why, that's me! :-)

Social Security and its counterpart for those under age 62, Social Security Disability, was never intended to replace a full-time income, so having a way to supplement my disability income using the internet is a welcome idea.

What is affiliate marketing?

In simplest terms, affiliate marketing is a strategy where a person partners with another business and makes a commission by referring readers or visitors to their website to that business's product or service.

Sounds easy. Get a website and then write a blog post or two and there you are.

If only.

Don't follow my lead and waste literally months and scarce resources like time and money following that dream with no roadmap.

Before finding Wealthy Affiliate I was signing up for the next "bright and shiny objects" in online marketing. I literally wasted THOUSANDS of dollars hubby and I didn't have chasing after promises of huge income potential.

Join A Community Moving In The Same Direction

It's a bit like knowing you want to drive to San Diego from Minneapolis--without a map. Sure, you could eventually get there. But think how much faster it would be if there was someone else who did it before you, knew the fastest way and freely shared their experience.

That's what you have with Wealthy Affiliate.

A couple months ago I wrote about the help I discovered in the WA Community.

Begin Your Journey Free Of Charge

Here is a short list of what you receive within the WA community.

• The skills needed to earn from promoting over 550 MILLION Products
• Two FREE profit-ready websites and all the support needed to make them successful
• Step-by-step training in how to promote products that are proven sellers
• Live, 24/7 tech support and one-on-one coaching
• A friendly, diverse community of over 1.4 million entrepreneurs who unselfishly share what works for them

Lots of folks stay with the free plan while they are learning the ropes, but the options are limited after the first week.

Nothing says you have to become a premium member. However, access to the full number of training courses and videos, a keyword research tool and many other valuable resources are limited without it.

5 Benefits To Being A WA Member

1. You make a good income without leaving the comfort of your home.
2. You are your own boss.
3. There's no schedule or timetable you have to follow.
4. You feel good by helping other people find solutions to their problems.
5. No previous knowledge, degree, certification or even coding skills are required.

This really is an almost no-fail way to make passive online income. In fact, about the only way to fail is not to ask questions and not do what is suggested.

With the help and support of the Wealthy Affiliate community, I no longer wander in the internet desert looking for an oasis of success.

Instead, I'm sharing my experience--even while I'm still learning--so other folks learn from and don't repeat my mistakes.
