Keep it Simple
This is not my first go around with internet marketing, I have spent more money than I care to think about. I have gone into information overload and had literal smoke coming out of my ears. Okay not really, but the vast amount of information that was being given me was causing my head to hurt. Let me give you an example.
First thing the terminology was like learning a foreign language. Then after I learned some of the lingo I had no clue what to do with it. If you have ever been there you can probably feel the knot in your stomach right now. I mean you just paid whatever money you really didn't have to make money that you really needed and you suddenly realize I am in some trouble here. Then you get a hold of someone to to help you and they try selling you another program to help you with the first program. So the cycle goes on.
For a newbie this can be very discouraging because you see people making transactions all the time online. You just need someone to show you how to make that happen. Then we find ourselves going from shiny object to shiny object looking for the secret to the mystery of online marketing.
This is a word of caution to those in Wealthy Affiliate. There is a lot of information in the school. Unlike the vast majority of other programs out there Kyle and Carson has broke this information down into bite sized chunks. Keep it simple. Process the information in your mind so you have a full understanding of the lesson. Then move on to the next lesson. I have found myself racing through the lessons, due to the pure enthusiasm that I have finally found someone to take me step by step to the promise land. I've had to go back and go over several lessons again.
Save yourself some frustration, take your time (this will actually save you time), and for petes sake keep it simple. Hope this helps.

Happy thoughts to you also, Rod. Thank you for your thoughts on keeping it simple. I agree with you. This is not my first time on the Internet "merry go round" either. And, yes...you are 100% right about buying into these programs...only to become frustrated and confused. Then....you are offered more information for more money. It certainly is discouraging...to say the least. Not to mention a waste of your time, effort, and money. I am trying to be smart by going slow with WA. I feel that I can absorb the info. better this way. I love that you said that the terminology is like learning another language. I totally agree.
Best wishes to you! Melanie
Yes Melanie I have a feeling were not the only two to feel this way on here. :)
