Hi folks, just a brief of my journey here and an answer why it is possible to make money on WA.

This question has been asked by so many people here, especially newbies, "Can you really make money on wealthy Affiliate?"

The short answer to this is a BOLD "Yes".

Just this afternoon, I opened my Amazon account, to find that I have made my first sale of $0.93, from 2 sales.

I hadn't made a penny since I joined WA almost 7 months ago. I was extremely happy, it was like I have made a million dollars. This was the day I have been waiting for all along, the day I would prove myths that you cannot make money online.

This is not a big amount of money, but to me it worth more than a thousand because it has showed me that WA affiliate really works.

For almost 6 months, I would wake up every morning, open my Amazon account and found that there is nothing to keep my hopes up. I would see one or two clicks and sometimes, I would even go for a week or so without a click.

As you can see on my Amazon account pic below, I have very few clicks, but it proved you can still make a sale from those few clicks.

But I never stop creating content on my website, sharing it on Twitter, Facebook and Pinterest, though I have a very low following.

I am writing this to fellow newbies, to never look back, the only way you will lose this game is when you quit.

I applied for an Amazon associate account 4 months and half ago, so just imagine the fear I had for losing all my time I had invested putting Amazon links on my website. Have been questioning my self so many questions about the life of my earnings after Amazon banned me.

There is no secret to this, you are the driver of this vehicle, so whatever you encounter along the way, never lose your focus till you reach your goal.

Site Comments

For those newbies who are struggling to pay their Wealthy Affiliate membership, WA have made it so easy by introducing the site comments cash credits. Give comments to other members' websites and earn cash credits you can convert to $US and pay for your monthly Premiums.

As you can see on the diagram below, I have earned a total of $45.50, if I can give myself sometime today, I can reach $49 which is required for my monthly subscription. So there is no reason for failing to pay your subscription.

But how does this site comments thing work? you may not be aware. You need to comment on other members websites. Reach 50 comments with a skip rate of less than 20% and comment approval of more than 80% so that you get certified. After certified, you can earn cash credits on every comment you submit.

So the secret here, will be to balance between the time you spend commending and that which you will spend working on your site. I only comment when I have finished working on my site. thus on my spare time.

Remember, the focus here is to keep your online business thrive.

Adsense Approval

Another thing to celebrate with my online! I have had my website declined by adsense several times. Just few weeks ago I reapplied again and this time, they accepted my site as shown in image below.

Right now my website is earning from Google adsense. I am so happy how my online venture is progressing every day.

If your Google adsense declined your website, there is not much to worry about, just continue adding content to your site, promote your content. As soon as your website start attracting enough traffic, they will definitely approve your site.

I want to dedicate this moment to thank Kyle and Carson for creating this wonderful community. Not forgetting all of you here for the great support you give me each given day, without you guys I am lonely, you are awesome, you are second to none.

My Advice to Newbies

• Never quit- This is the last thing you will need to do here. I always do advice so many people here that except if you quit, you are guaranteed of success
  
• Be consistent when creating your content, if you are creating 3 posts per week, then you have to consistently do that for a longer period. If its 4 or 5 posts you need to manage consistence to maintain trust with your users. Keeping this golden rule, will guarantee your success at WA.

I have written this blog not to brag but to encourage those who are encountering difficulties in making the first sale on Amazon and those who are struggling for their monthly premiums to contnue pushing. Its only a matter of time before your celebration, but it needs your total commitment.

Thank you so much for the time you spare reading my blog.

Wish you all the best
