My 2nd Anniversary!
๐ Happy 2-Year WAnniversary to Me
๐ To My Wealthy Affiliate Family
Two years ago, I embarked on a journey as a Wealthy Affiliate member, not knowing the incredible path of growth, learning, and community that lay ahead. Today, I celebrate not just the knowledge gained but the enduring spirit of perseverance and the bonds of trust and communication built along the way.
A special thanks goes out to our amazing Founders and trailblazers, Kyle, Carson, and their posse. They have put their hearts and minds into the art of revolutionizing the Wealthy Affiliate platform so that everyone can have a piece of the pie at the end of the day. Thank you guys so much.
A Journey of Growth and Learning
๐ Journey Highlights:
๐ข Built My First Website:
From a blank canvas using the Wealthy Affiliate Four Step Process of affiliate marketing, I built my 1st website from scratch. I also completed my Online Entrepreneur Certification (OEC) within the first few months of training. I came in to this arena having absolutely no knowledge of what to expect. However, it has been an amazing experience.
There will be intense moments, of course, but this is the time when you have to hunker down and keep your goals in mind. Winners Never Quit and Quitters Never Win. This WA-mazing platform provides you with everything you need to succeed. In fact, it is now doing the done-for-you heavy lifting.
๐ข Keyword Research Mastery:
Diving deep into the world of low-hanging fruits (aka low-competition keywords) for optimal keyword selection, was a whole new world, in and of itself. Using the Jaaxy tool to check keywords for AVG, Traffic, QSR, KQI, SEO was and still is pretty cool. I have learned some of the affiliate marketing lingo along the way. This is part of the basic training that you will never forget.
AVG โ the average number of searches that a keyword receives per month.
Traffic โ shows how many people visit your website per month.
QSR โ Quoted Search Results. Number of competing pages for that term.
KQI โ Keyword Quality Indicator. Green -Good. Yellow โ medium. Red โ not good.
๐ข Skill Enhancement:
I learned Goal-Setting, Time Management, and tools like Jaaxy, the Niche Finder, Alphabet Soup (X), and more! I also became an Amazon Associate and joined a host of affiliate programs such as ShareASale, ClickBank, Commission Junction, and Rakuten to name a few. The webinars with Jay are also a lot of fun too, along with the mentors, coaches and the faithful super affiliates. They know who they are.
๐ข Upgrades & Innovations:
We are all adapting to the latest Wealthy Affiliate upgrades including the Site Content, Article Designer, AI Author, and The Hubs. It's a whole new world at WA.
๐ข Community Engagement:
Since January of 2022 things are falling into place. I have evolved into a Premium Plus member about a year and a half in, became an Ambassador, and a consistent Content Creator. Engaging with the WA community is actually one of my favorite parts of this program. I have always been a people person.
In addition. I enjoy being an official commenter, so far rendering 275 comments to other websites in the WAC. Also, my stats show 175 published blog posts, with over 2/3rds of them indexed, 462 community blogs, 71 tutorials, contributing to the vibrancy of the WA community. Not too bad for a rookie entrepreneur who had no knowledge, whatsoever, of affiliate marketing.
๐ข Learned the Fine Art of:
- Product Reviews
- Informational posts
- Case Studies
- Listicles (lists)
- How-to-Guides
- Checklists
- How-to-Guides
- Checklists
๐ข The Rollercoaster Ride
Affiliate marketing isn't all smooth sailing, and my journey reflects that. From purchasing domains to facing website challenges and even shedding a few tears, it's been a ride of resilience and fortitude. Yet, with every hurdle, my resolve has only strengthened.
๐ก Words for the Future
As I reflect on these two years, it's evident that the journey is ongoing. The field of affiliate marketing requires chutzpah, and I'm ready to continue manifesting my destiny.
To the newcomers: seize this moment! Wealthy Affiliate is more than a platform; it's a revolution, especially with the AI wave. Let's ride this wave together!
๐ Let's Celebrate:
Join me as I mark this milestone with a virtual celebration! Imagine a vibrant party scene, balloons in the air, laughter all around, and a banner that proudly proclaim "Happy 2nd Anniversary January 6, 2024" This isn't just my celebration; it's a testament to our shared journey in this dynamic community.
Here's to more learning, growth, and success! Cheers to many more years at Wealthy Affiliate! Let's keep rolling!
With My Gratitude
