Published on Wealthy Affiliate — a platform for building real online businesses with modern training and AI.

Prior to retiring I managed User Interface engineering for a huge commercial website that was product based serving a large US market. Essentially it was an online marketer for a large niche market. After retiring I have built many websites the old fashioned way with html, CSS, javascript and mysql databases with the objective of earning an income. I know the geeky stuff but have learned more here in the first 3 days about acquiring traffic, monetization of niche content and how to do the marketing stuff than I learned in 15 years of engineering. I am excited!!!
