I think many of us old schoolers here at Wealthy Affiliate remember the days when WA was really referred to as The Wealthy Affiliate University, because this awesome platform is really the best Affiliate Marketing School on the internet. I know if you are in this amazing community you will agree with this statement.

That being said, and remembering back to my college days and how much effort I put into college, I never ever got paid for all of my hard work. I conducted research, wrote papers, particiapated in laboratory activities (I was a Biology major) and did many "all nighters" to cram for exams, and YEP, never got paid one red cent.


I have recently started participating in Kyles amazing Super-Affiliate Challenge and have decided to treat this opportunity like I am in a very expensive college. With the same, if not more, effort and committment I did to obtain my Bachelor of Science degree about 100 years ago (yes, I am old as dirt).

If you really want to know the three secrets to becoming a super-affiliate and you truly want to make money on the internet as an affiliate marketer, (which is the best way to make money online from home), then treat the training here at Wealthy Affilaite like it was an expensive private school and, then apply secret number one, which is.....

Treat WA As An Affiliate Marketing School

See you don't even have to bribe the school to get your kids in, you just need to treat it like your future career depends on it, and guess what, your first semester, or if you really want to, your whole freshman year is 100% FREE. Just simply click on that green training icon directly to your left, and start your freshman year.

If you are reading this post from outside our University walls, then simply sign up for a free account and then start your freshman year. Oh, and by the way, you get two free hosted websites in addition to the training for free. This would be like all of your books for your freshman year are all paid for.

A little different from traditional college and, by the way, much more lucrative to say the least.

So, your First Semester can be done is 10 simple lessons and they should look something like this:

So let's move on to Secret number 2 shall we?

Stick To The Lesson Plan And Do All Of Your Homework

The Wealthy Affiliate University utilizes a task based system to ensure that you are accountable for your actions. These actions are your homework. You read the lesson plan to gain an understanding either through text or video or, in most cases, both. Once you understand the material you move on to the application part and complete your checklilst.

So, on a daily basis work on your checklist as you read and understand the material. If you miss somthing, simply go back and re-read or watch the applicable instruction video again until you have a firm handle on the material. In addition to this watch the weekly live Event training by Jay our Live training coach. This is every friday at 5 PM PST. Don't worry if you cannot catch the live training, because it is recorded.

As a free member of the Wealthy Affiliate University you get your first semester course outline that include 10 lessons with application built right into it. Meaning you get two free hosted websites included in the training. This is an application based training, which means you end up with a website with a solid foundation to get you on your way to earn a solid online income. Yes, you have graduated and have earned your Online Entrepreneur Certification.

At this point you have a solid foundation and a great start. Now let's move on to secret number 3.


Stay Away From Bright Shiny Objects

Now that you have a foundation to build upon you want to stay the course. This is a business now and should be treated as such. In the affiliate / internet marketing space you will see many different offers offering you the world. The slogan "if it seems to good to be true, it probably is" is more true in this space than in any other.

I have been involved in the internet marketing space since 2009 and I can tell you from experience that chasing the next best thing is simply a waste of time and money. The only people really benefiting from the "one button riches" for $19.95 are the site owners themselves. It is total hype.

The thing that most newer and older marketers alike do not really understand is that it is set up this way. Just look at the Warriar Plus forum, for example. It is filled with launches that are intended for other marketers to make a quick buck and capitalize on the upsell or OTO (one time offer). If you don't believe me, take a look at the JV pages where they are introducing an upcoming launch and how it is worded to the marketer. They literally tell you to take advantage of the 5 OTO's that will "suck in" prospects for you and how great they convert.

These programs are specifically designed for the short term sale for a marketer with a big list. These marketers with these bigs lists all know that these programs are short lived, this is why they study the JV pages for upcoming products. The problem with marketing this way is that eventually you will ware out your list.

Take it from me, stay away from these tactics. Better yet, warn people of them by doing great reviews if you are in the internet marketing niche and lead them to Wealthy Affiliate where people have the opportunity to build a solid business and foundation. I have two very strong websites that are ranking in the search engines because of the training offered here at Wealthy Affiliate.

Spread the word. This is the best platform out there.

Secret #4 - I know I said there was only 3, but I couldn't resist.

Become a Premium Member

If you are a free member, be sure to complete the first 10 lessons offered to you and take the initiative to build your foundational website. Then you want to make sure you become a premium member.

I have purchased a lot of internet marketing products in my day, and I have to tell you the Wealthy Affiliate Premium has more value that anything out there. Not only will you not be exposed to a stupid "OTO" (One time offer), you will never be exposed to an upsell. In fact, the value always increases without the extra cost. And, you get soooooo much value.

Do you know how much internet marketing coaching costs outside of WA?

Well, coaching is available here for no exra charge by members and your sponsor and, not to mention kyle himself. You will not get any better mentoring.

Stay the course my friends, follow the training step by step, and YOU WILL SUCCEED!

HI Ralph,
i am humbled by your post, very well done! your prior expertise is quite evident. Very well done. I look forward to the day I can produce a post like this.

Chas

Thanks Chas for such an awesome compliment. In this case I think the best way to get good at writing is to make a goal of blogging each and every day. Starting in April of this year I have committed to one hour of blogging each day, whether I want to or not.

Great blog, your words give great encouragement to me and all fellow WA members to keep striving towards their goals!!! Thank you!

You're very welcome. Yes, each and every day we need to remind ourselves that are websites need to be run like a business and not a hobby. Stay motivated my friend and you will go far in this business.
