How Will YOU Earn Money?
There are many ways to make money online! The problem is that people often get distracted by the "latest and greatest" product or service and they are never able to build a successful (and revenue generating) business.
Today we are going to run you through one of the most fundamental, yet the most powerful processes of generating revenue online.
It is a proven process, it is one that we use, and one that 100,000's of other Wealthy Affiliate members use. It is also the ultimate "making money" process that worked 5 years ago and it is going to work 5 years from now. It is a process that will reveal as much opportunity in the massive online world as you are willing to work for!
Just one thing before you get into the MONEY "stuff"...
The making money part of your business won't happen quite yet.
Before you earn money, you are going to first be focusing on creating your niche website (which will take place in the next two lessons) and are working to get traffic to your website. Without a website, without content, and without traffic, the MONEY part simply doesn't happen.
So don't look at this like a race. You will reach success and a great deal of it, but before you build your own personal SKYSCRAPER of a business, you must first have a solid FOUNDATION to build it on. That is going to be our first goal within the Getting Started training. Cool?
Alright, let's continue on! :)
Below is a video walk-through of today's lesson and the process of "How to Make Money Online". Just click the PLAY button to watch it!
DISCUSS THIS VIDEO HERE: How to Make Money Online - The Process Explained
Over the coming days you are going to be working through this process and by the end of this Level 1 training alone, you are going to have an awesome foundation in place that will lead you to much greater success.
Task #1: Understand the Make Money Process
There are MANY different ways that you can earn money online and many different ways in which you can build an entire business. In the coming lessons we are going to be walking you through the following process (and the video above explains it).
There are 3.75 BILLION people online as of 2018 (YOUR audience) and these people are searching for things all the time.
They are looking for information, solutions to problems and to buy stuff. That is where you are going to come in with your website and help these "audiences" by offering them information about what they are looking for. You will be "helping" these people and earning revenue in the process.
By Lesson 4 of this course you are going to have your very own "niche" website in place that you will use to connect with your chosen audience. You will have your very own piece of the internet and a platform to connect anyone that you want who browses the Internet.
Task #2: Create (Write Down) Your Financial Goals
You want to earn revenue right? That is great! In order to earn anything however, you need to have some goals in place.
In this task we want you to join in on a "money goals" discussion here at Wealthy Affiliate. You are going to be telling us what your goals are and going forward, we are going to be helping you achieve these very goals!
QUESTION #1: How much money would you be happy earning?
QUESTION #2: How much would you be ecstatic earning?
QUESTION #3: And how much TIME are you willing to invest to achieve these goals?
PLEASE make 100% sure that you do not skip this step and you revisit this post regularly when you are in need of some motivation. I can absolutely assure you that if you work hard at this and you are persistent towards these goals, you will achieve them. But ultimately it is UP TO YOU!
Join Discussion: What Are Your "money" Goals?
In addition to this, it would be wonderful if you commented on someone else's goals they have posted within this thread. Aim to comment on at least TWO people's goals. You likely can network with many other "like minded" people here at Wealthy Affiliate and this is a good way to get your networking efforts rolling. We are a friendly bunch here at WA!
Awesome, off to the next lesson now where you will be "choosing your niche"!

Would someone please explain how I get paid? I understand niche, website, write blogs with links...someone buys, I get a commission. Do I have to make separate arrangements with all the different affiliate programs? Does the affiliate program pay into my bank account? Or does it happen through a common WA portal? Do I have to chase up the payments etc. Thank you.

Hi - you need to apply to join affiliate programs. They all have different terms and conditions as regards payment, whether it be to your bank account, by PayPal or by check. You won't have to chase up payments, but some programs do have a minimum threshold you have to meet before payment is made. There is no WA portal unless you have chosen to recruit other WA members.

thats where you will need to read the terms of the affiliate agreement.
it is impossible for us to say how you will get paid.
like promoting wa- you get paid through paypal.
amazon have three different ways of paying you.
so before you sign up for an affiliate program you need to read the boring stuff, the terms and make notes, so there are no suprises.
good luck.

Hi Kyle, I understood your lesson well, you are very patient and a great teacher! Only had one snag. When I went to my site and right clicked I wasn’t able to get the drop down that you were referring to so thatI could take a look at the coding. My Mac is in the shop and I’m working on my IPad. Could that be the issue?
Thanks for your help.

there is a good chance - unless you are using firefox or chrome to view the sites.
but you may have a development menu item at the top of your apple browser which allows this option - google it and you will find it.

Hello there, I just go through with WA overview with Kyle, thousands of questions going through my mind now, and as I go through with your questions and answers it's really great. Although i still don't fully understand about making website, how to earn online, coz I don't believe those online jobs post anymore, they were just looking for likes in there channel. So it's my very first time to join in an online community like this and I can feel real money as I read all your comments. God bless everyone that was here in this section today.
Hi Will not some niches be country specific, so that they apply more in one country than others. For example, if you are talking about garden fertilizers, which will vary from country to country. If I describe one fertilizer other people may not understand what I am going on about.

If in a bussiness model, to sell 1 product over another with my own experience. Can I get help with knowing the difference of being honest and something that could be considered slander?
i have a lot to work on before i use my idea, but as i'm think i have an extremely strong plan, i don't want to cross any legal lines

I'm not an attorney, so this is just an "in a nutshell" response...
The legal definition of slander is essentially the telling of a untruth that harms the reputation of another party. So, as long as you are simply sharing your experience with a product or service -- the good and the bad -- technically it would not be considered slanderous.
Of course, anyone can sue anyone else for practically anything these days. I think as long as you are truthful, and yet still polite, you should be okay.
In fact, I've seen many businesses often reach out to a "bad" review to try and make it right.
On the other hand, if you go into some hate-filled rant then all bets are off. Keep it professional.

Hey, student from the UK here in my final year looking to start making money online while I finish off my degree and hopefully for long after that as well, any quick tips for beginners such as myself and how long to spend doing this (e.g. how many hours a day) since I've still got a degree to try and get :)
AJTrimble1
Premium
Naturally you just do what you can do. I know how limited a student's time can be... I've got more degrees than a thermometer! lol
I would say that if you could spare, say, an hour a day you will do just fine. A good target for a beginner is one solid 1500-3000 word post per week. You can definitely hit that with an hour a day, even including any research you might need.
Whatever your niche, just make sure it is something you are passionate about. Ultimately you will be creating a ton of content, and the worst thing you can do is turn this into a "job"; especially one that you wind up hating.
Hope this helps. :-)

Truth is we have reached a time where any kid with a laptop can put a Fortune 500 company out of business.
Don't get me wrong. I still think education is a worthwhile pursuit, and I am sending all three of my children through it.
But now it's all about the "applied" side; it's more about what you actually learn and the skills get out of it. The era I grew up in where it meant something merely because one has a piece of paper from a university is long over.

Hey everybody! I'm totally nubby and very excited about this new beginning. I make this very important decision today. I'm not going to procrastinate anymore and I starting a new chapter in my life today. I'm going through coaching and I'm amazed how good it developed. Completely nubby proof, on one side and very informative on the other.

I don't understand the difference between a domain and a website. I've watched a video which explains a domain and it was a little beyond my understanding. Do you provide domains or websites. I think I understand that I will need to purchase domain names?

Robin, think of your domain as your address.
then think of your site as a book.
when people come to your domain(address), they are allowed to read your book.
if they arrive at the home page they read the intro.
or if they need specific info, the search engines may direct them straight to a chapter relevant to what they are looking for.
so after purchasin your domain, you write your book.
sounds scary, but if you break it down into chapters and small sections of each chapter then it becomes easy.
good luck

Your website is your home your domain is your address to that home. Newbie enough?
As for the second part of your question say you want to talk about being a newbie online.
You search for a domain name, for example, newbie.com and if it is available you purchase that domain.
From there you now have an address (your domain name) which is just a block of land at the moment.
Now you have to build on your new land (website) and as you add content you are now building your home.
The more you build the more you have in your home that will add value to it
Hope that helps

A domain name is a web address..think of your house address...it's a number and street name identifying your home's location. A domain name does the same for your website.
A website is the actual post, pages and so on at an address. Just like your house. It resides at an address but it isn't an address itself.
Take the domain analogy one step further... different me,hers can receive mail at your address (i.e. Bob, Mary, etc.). The same is true for your email at your domain (bob@yourdomain.com, etc.).
I hope this helps.

You want to build an online business around coffee.
You register the domain name ilovecoffee.com with a domain name registrar. You pay the registrar and you own the domain name.
You pay a website host for space on their computers where your business will be. Your website is your business and it will be called www.ilovecoffee.com. You have to build its pages, posts, structure and menu directly on host's computers.
You connect your domain name with your website so that when someone enters ilovecoffee.com into a search engine, your website appears.

You do ask the hard questions, don't you. I am new to tech, so it is easier for me to put it in trucking terms, and that is how I think of it. If you go somewhere like a truckstop, your vehicle to get there is like your website. Some people have ads on their cars, trucking companies have the names and logos on their trucks. The truckstop has the parkinglot which is like a domain. But then again, maybe I'm wrong.
I'm still learning.

Thank you, Apache1. In the training, lesson 1, it says to first choose the kind of website, so that would be a newbie website. Second, choose a domain ... newbie@com? And 3rd choose a website name ... I'm not sure what goes there.
It seems that different information sources flip domain/website name versus domain/website. But I'm not sure. Yikes.
I put the @ symbol because it said only premium members could include a link. ;)

OK, so your website will be an art website.
Say your domain is robinsartsite.com.
The web site name can differ from the domain. Think of it as a title at the top of your site. Any people will make it match their domain name but you don't have to. You can use "Robin's Art Site" or you can use "Photos by Robin", etc. It's just the title or branding that's displayed, usually at the top of the site pages.

ah...domain and domain name are the same but website name can be different.
here the domains are categorized internally - nothing to do with the web, just for internal accounting.
so yes your domain name can be different to your website name.
but your domain name is the one you buy and cannot be changed - without buying another one.
the website name, on the other hand can change when you want it to. this is the display name for your website.

Lol. I've got to admit, I'm overwhelmed. I watched a video from a tech guy on domains and there was so much more to them than probably what we need here. I think someone else from WA said that you can have two domain names.
I need to move past this because it's just stopping me. I likely should have said upfront that I can be very OCD about things and I could cling to this until I have it in a consecutive line. I'm just not sure how to get it there! Haha!

that will be interesting when you get onto keywords - where it gets a bit grey - never black and white.
with the ' but my post has all of the right bits of seo but it still isn't ranked'
this is really something you will need to get a handle on - yes understand it but don't overdo it.
it will drive you mad - especially when you can't get hold of the algorithm which google uses to rank you.
and visitors - well they are just another beast entirely - my content is good and i'm telling thwm about it, but nobody is visiting!'
i can be a bit ocd, but know where to draw the line - sometimes paralyis by analysis sets in after the initial rush, but manage to get over most of it.
but no you cannot have two domain names for one domain - you can have a subdomain - similar to where you are now - look up at the top it says my.wea..... so wealthy... is the domain with my.wea.... being the subdomain ( domain linked to the master domain).
good luck coming to terms with it and hopefully you can move on.

You have a few niches there that would work .... In order to choose which one would you be able to write for the next 5 years this may narrow it down for you.
Always go for something that you are passionate about as this will help too.
Also do some research are there any other website about your niche if no then there probably isn't enough people wanting the information so will be difficult to get traffic and make money.
Trust this has helped :)

This is something I am quite passionate about. I was an over the road trucker for over 20 years, and had my truck rigged up to be like a mini apartment. For a while I lived in my truck even though the truck belonged to my boss. I had microwave, coffee pot, lamps, tv, dvd player, toaster oven, and even a refridgerator. All I had to do was pull into somewhere and run an extension cord to the vent glass on the door, and plug in.
My website does not have pages on the top and I am not able to get them there with my navigation. I’m not sure where I’m going wrong, but nothing changes on my site. I understand it on your screen, Kyle, but unable to make it happen on mine. I have compared step by step between the instruction and my site. It’s not the same.

Are you referring to the links that take people to you pages? This is called the "top" or "primary" menu and can be automatically generated or not depending on the theme.
If you can't see them, you will have to create one manually. It's not a big deal...
In your dashboard go to Appearance > Menus
You will see two columns. In the left is all your "stuff" (posts, pages, categories, etc.)
Checkmark the items you want on your menu and click the "Add to Menu" button. You should see it all added to the column on the right.
Make sure to check the box underneath that column that says "primary menu"
Now go back to your homepage, refresh if necessary, and you should see your menu listed.
Hope this helps.

I don’t see “primary menu” as an option. Under Menu Settings I have “Auto add pages” and “Display location”. The Auto Add Pages says that it automatically adds new top-level pages to the menu, but when I tried it nothing changed on the main site. I tried the other one too with the same result.
Interestingly, my Privacy Policy isn’t listed as that either but has as its title the entire wording of the actual privacy policy. I don’t know how to change the title, or how it got like that.

The "Display Location" typically has 2-3 check boxes: Top Menu, Main Menu, and Footer Menu. This is entirely dependent on the theme you're using though, so you may not have all three. At a minimum you should have some version of a main or primary menu.
For what it's worth, I never use the "automatically add" option. I just leave that box unchecked.

This is the lesson that has convinced me to go premium. Ive always messed with wordpress but with little clue on what I am doing. This lesson has really brought some much needed clarity. Its also shown the real power of wordpress. I would say the sky is the limit but its potential is way past that point. Looking forward to whats ahead!

I have a number of niches that I wont to get involved in but for now im currently deciding on two. One of which I have already secured the domain name with being greatwallparts.com I am just unsure how id get involved with an affiliate program with this particular one. The second one being focused on health but more directly cbd oil as this has been a growing market and I have an interest around cbd oil and it healing properties. Would really like some insight on these two. Thanks 🙏

As a consumer, I'm all for natural healing - and I think cbd oil is getting lots of attention. As far as greatwallparts, not sure what market/ products this is.
Anyway, to your success! All the best.

Those are awesome ideas!
You'll need to break down some of those niche ideas, like the clothing/fashion and the men's clothes. You have to think who you want to target that have a problem they want to solve.
For example, you could do fashion for ladies who are curvaceous, or the opposite, best clothing for slim ladies who want to look more curvaceous. You could target occasions; like wedding fashion.
For men's clothes, you may want to target WHAT type of clothing; is it business attire? Is it casual? Is it for a wedding? Is it for bigger or well-built men? Is it for shorter or taller men?
Think about what PROBLEMS people might be facing that they would want to come to the Internet for more information on.
I think the gaming niche is one of the niches that you have well-broken down and the best niches are the ones where it will be easy for you to write reviews on. Just a suggestion because reviews are more easily ranked for than regular articles.
I hope I have helped and if you have any more questions, be sure to ask.. :) I wish you the best.

Hi - they are all good ideas, but quite competitive markets. You should just have one niche on one website. Pick the one you are most passionate about and then narrow it down. What can you offer advice on? Keep following the training step by step and complete every task as you get to it. Good luck!
Thank you for your feedback. I am still understanding and solidifying all the knowledge. I have a passion for video games and playing them so if you think that this is a "sweet spot" I will look into it. I also do not mind reporting a bug to help the community because who wants a buggy game.
Thank you for your feedback. I will implement this into my training and grow from it.
I will definitely continue the training step by step cause I want to be successful.

Hey! In my daily life, I have been trying to reduce my plastic usage and avoid products with BPA and other harmful chemicals in them. I want to choose a niche within this category. I have been looking a lot into food storage solutions that do not contain plastic (things like glass food storage containers and reusable silicone bags). Would this be considered a niche? I'm just not sure how broad or specific it should be...
JackieSmith

This is a great niche and with the emphasis on renewable containers and reducing waste, any alternative suggestions will be welcomed.
Food storage solutions without plastic is narrow enough. Have you tried using Jaaxy or Google to see what the search results are like for this criteria?

This is definitely a niche and a great one too! My sites name is Go Green With Hemp, can't give the URL, but....
Anyhow, I promote all hemp items, pretty much anything to do with using hemp in our daily lives. Which is pretty broad, but also limited if you get what I mean, all my products are related to hemp, but that is usually the only thing that links them lol. I have reviews for shampoo and conditioner, and CBD products, and clothes. I plan to promote more paper products and building materials as well. I sort these all out with the use of categories that are set in the menu as page categories.
Hope this is helpful.

I have been seeing ads lately, in Facebook, of a product that is not plastic yet wraps like plastic and is washable and re usable many times over. I have been tempted to try this product for myself. I too, think this could be a good niche.
Just a reminder though, in order to get higher page rankings, for Google's attention, you will need to write regular weekly posts on this topic. If you think that you have enough topics for this niche to write about, then go for it!

Hi guys, I've just gone through the "what is niche?" section and was wondering how you find out what products/companies have an affiliate program? Surely not everyone does and I have a few ideas what my Niches will be, but I'd like to know that what I'm using pays for the affiliation. I hope that makes sense :D

Ok, I have a question. In last part of video, workout supplements search, if person goes to your web page, but DOESN'T buy particular product, but choose from something else on their page, does it still count as revenue as person came to that page from your link? Example as shown in video: pre jym - bodybuilding, and doesn't buy that, but choose something else from creatine section. Will it still make a revenue?

If I am understanding you correctly, someone visits your site, clicks on your affiliate link to some product, goes there but doesn't buy that product and instead buys something else. Do you get money for referring them? Yes, you brought them there so you should get credit. Some places (Amazon) will give you a 7 day window, while others will give you up to lifetime of customer. Though, you need to be the last referrer usually.

Hey, Villanueva, you can make money bringing others to WA towards to your website, however, how you will convince your friends or others to have to come premium if you don,t have the experience. Also, is only $19,00 US dollars the first month and then goes $49,00 the other months. The premium, allowed to have unlimited access to much more tools that you will need. Worth some sacrifice. Hope this helps you.

QUESTION #1: How much money would you be happy earning?

QUESTION #3: And how much TIME are you willing to invest to achieve these goals?
I am willing to sacrifice 4-6 hours after hours a day because i work for 8 hours a day to reach my goals.

These are achievable goals. What is important is setting milestone goals related to that effort of 4-6 hours. For instance setting a goal of post 1 - 2 article of substance per week. Achieving these milestones is almost as important as setting them as they will keep you focused, motivated and committed.

Hi Kyle,
I have a question about the menu tabs at the top navigation position. You had mentioned in your training that some templates do and some do not have the Home menu tab. Mine did not, though I was able to add it by following your instructions. My question is that the one I created does not perform (no side menu, text presented in a narrower format) the same as the other tabs in the top or main menu navigation,. Can you possibly please enlighten me as to why this may be the case. Thank you for any help you can provide.

Some themes have a home menu item by default, it just depends on the theme. You are in full control of these menus though.
You can add these custom menus to organize your top menu in any way in which you like, as well as create sub-menus (for themes that will support this). You can also use these custom menus to add within your side widgets on your website (within your sidebar).
Here is a tutorial on how to create custom menus: Creating Custom Menus & Navigation I use custom menus on all of my websites (over-ride that default menu). It allows much more control and organization....both good things!

Thank you for your help. Your link was to the training I had already watched, so I paid more attention this time. While my specific question was not addressed, it may be specific to the theme I have chosen. I will just have faith that my question will be answered in one way or another in the training, or by applying the training and trying different features (play to learn).
I do have a comment in that I find some confusion with the menu naming and placement nomenclature (in my understanding not the training) and I am sure time, application, and playing will solve that confusion of the different references of “menu”.
Thank you again and I hope yours and Everyone’s day is Wonderful!!

I am connected with Jeunesse Global. They make and sell skincare products that contain adult stem cells. They have a new stemcell product that grows hair on men who have been bald for 40 years! We develop personal relations with our customers. The residuals and compensation plan are remarkable. Could this be a niche? I realize there is probably a skin care niche. I do not know if the way we need to enroll people as customers or as people doing what I am doing (making a business with it) would be a problem.
Thank you for any insight.

The key when building a business online (or offline) is building a focused audience and brand through helping people within a certain niche. It is very difficult to make a product/service your niche and that is the reason people that are within MLM don't actually have a business, they are reliant on the MLM itself versus their own brand/foundation.
You are going to learn how to properly build a business online here at WA in any niche. Within that respective niche, you are going to be able to promote many different products (Jeunesse included). This will position you for much longer term success and a great deal of long term sustainability with your business.
If you can help people, you can create a long term business doing so.

Hi Michael,
I has account with Jeunesse Global too. Antiaging and skincare industry and niches are great to be in.
But about 1.5 years ago, Jeunesse got much stricter in its compliance policies for distributor websites and ads.
All websites and ads must be submitted and be approved by the Compliance and Legal department of Jeunesse Global before they can be shown to the public, if not the accounts may get suspended.
You can email to their compliance department for further details.
Hope this helps.

Your ideas seem good being that they all have a community that already exists around them. You might consider doing all of them in the future, but for now, pick one that is most relevant to your life and be all about it. Go through the training and get everything all setup and give your readers lots of valuable content and they will then easily follow your links or at least look at the products you present. Once you have one niche going and understand how to run the business day-to-day, then build your next one. Rinse and repeat.
I am from Iraq and I have noticed that Iraq is not supported by WA payment system. does that mean I will not be able to receive payment too? and is there gonna be future updates to include Iraq in the payment system?

We are looking into this. In the meantime, choose a country close by and see if that works. We are going to check into getting Iraq added, and if there are no implications with our merchant accounts we will be adding this soon.

this could have been something you have been interested in looking into for a while and now have the chance to explore it and inform people.
remember that you will be writong loads about this subject - o pick something you may want to learn about - you never know you may become passionate about it.
but if it is just for the money then how are you going to give valuable advice and helpful information without hte money getting in the way?

Hi Kerry - that's not a good idea really. Remember you will be expected to write dozens of articles on your niche, and if you are already struggling with the idea of having to write the "about me" on your page, then you will see working on your website as a chore.
Are you sure there is nothing you have an interest in? If your friends were to describe you, what would they say you talk about? Has anybody ever asked for your advice on anything? Popular choices to think about include animals, beauty, diet, gadgets, games etc

Kerry do not write about or pick a niche you do not know or do not care about. People will see right through that there is no passion. What have you learned or gained through your struggles. What about making some, so to speak, coaching videos.
Actually this isn't a bad idea for me to work on also. Shoot lets do it alone side each other. I have a niche but I can have a couple, what the heck.

I am very confused about something. I am redoing the training because I didn't do it properly the first time. I want the About Me page to appear in my main menu. But if it is a post - will I be able to add it to my main menu? I was under the impression it won't show up in the menu unless it is designated as an actual page. I get the part about engagement, but it is also important that visitors be able to find the about me page from the home page. I hope my question makes sense.

I was very confused too, once upon a time, regarding posts, pages and menus. I often went over the lessons again and again. No shame in that. Yes, you have to create a menu first, and if you have any pages in your dashboard, you will be able to place your pages in the Menu, and re order them too.
I was so excited when I finally understood how to create Menus, I have two now. I have a Main menu and a Footer Menu. I soon had so many pages in my Main Menu, that I chose to make a Footer Menu at the bottom of my website for my Privacy Policy and Disclaimer pages to make room.
Kyle teaches how to create a Menu, but there are many other tutorials made by other members on that subject too. Check them all out, and eventually everything will click together and make sense.

Thank you so much for responding. I did follow the training on menus once before and I do understand how to create menu structure.
What confused me with the updated training video on the second round of me reviewing the training was the new instructions on turning the About Me page into a post. To my understanding, if something is designated as a post - it cannot be assigned to a menu. Is that correct?

You are a fast learner Wendy, it took me a long time to grasp what the training meant for menus. I think I actually figured them out myself, by trial and error. You've already gotten some good answers. When I got to that lesson, two years ago now, I knew I did not want to put my About Me as a Post, so I immediately made it as a Page, going contrary to the lesson. I am a bit of a rebel that way :)

Hi Wendy,
How are you doing?
You can add a Post to the menu no problem:-
From the Wordpress Dashboard go to:
1) Navigate to 'Appearance - Menus'
2) Expand the 'Posts' section, tick the box next to the Post you want added to the menu, then click 'Add to Menu'.
3) Save the menu
The Post will then be shown. Please see example screen print showing this.
Hope this helps,
Best Wishes,
Tim

Hi there, as a newbie, I am trying to decide what my niche should be, and I was wondering if I should worry about picking a concept so specialized or artisanal that it seems to me it would be challenging to source the products related to my concept. Is it possible to get paid from smaller, perhaps independent advertisers? Thanks for the education.

Hello Dwight and welcome to Wealthy Affiliate.
Do you have your appearance set for blog roll or static page?
Did you refresh your browser before going to view it on your site?
You probably haven't set up the menu yet as you haven't reached that part of the training . But this might cause this issue as well.

Ok. Once in your back office in WordPress, click on appearance to your left and then click customize.
You want to look for homepage settings.
This is where you will find blog roll and static page
Keep in mind, that the issue you are having may disappear once you have created a menu which you will be learning real soon.

I'm kinda stuck here.
I hold a PhD degree in women health and infertility. And I have successfully sold in the past anti-aging products "Offline" but failed to duplicate that success online and lost lots of money.
So, it made sense to me to try again now that I am learning the process all over the right way. I understand that this niche falls under health and beauty which is very competitive industry. Any suggestion as how to narrow it down? Alter it?!
I also thought about teaching the technical aspect of podcasting and/or voice over since I have been doing both for over 13 years now. I can also recommend products (mics, mixers..etc) for commissions. But I have also noticed that neither have a big market to make it a long-term.
Finally, Keto Dieting since I have been on it for few months now and the results are just amazing. Lost more than 14Kg so I think I can contribute in this market. But is keto diet very generic?
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Hey guys--I have a question for anyone willing to help:
I'm currently building the list of keywords for the site I'm building and I've noticed that in the list for the first word I've typed I've got the Avg at over 100, but the QSR shows no number at all (it's literally blank). Is this to indicate to me that the keywords displaying these stats are uncommon-but-ripe-keywords, or is this indicative of something else?
Thank you,

It should give a number there or say: get QSR, which you then press. You should get the same results when typing your keyword into the Google search engine, but with hyphens!

No. As a WA member you have access to Jaaxy Lite. Kyle is using the Enterprise version in the video. It's a paid subscription, but it does everything for you like you see him do.
Ours requires a bit more DIY. Just find the keyword you are interested in and look in the QSR column. You should see a link that says "Get QSR". Click that and give it a few seconds. It will pull up the competition for that one keyword only.
Repeat the process for every keyword on your list.

If the search terms listed in this area are extremely general, you can deduce that you have more competition for clicks with that search term. Targeting other keywords or producing higher quality content can improve your search engine ranking.

Hi! Welcome to the community. You can certainly skip tasks and move on. Before I upgraded, I went through each one of the first 10 lessons, reading the text and not doing anything else. It helped me with my decision to try the premium membership. After the upgrade, I went back, watched the videos and completed every task in order.
Sometimes, you'll also need to skip a task you can't complete yet, and that's ok, you can come back to it later. I do recommend trying your hardest to follow it in order though, as it's all laid out in a certain way for a reason :)
Hope this helps!

Hi everyone, I'm totally knew to all of this! I am trying to decide on my niche and was wondering if having a niche that is available 'worldwide' is better than local? Obviously, you have a much larger audience, but I was wondering if anyone had decided on a local niche (not too small- I live in Sydney) and how they were going with that? Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks so much in advance.

My suggestion is that unless you are marketing a product or service that is only specific to a local market, definitely go as big as you can.
For example, if you were providing house cleaning, it would make sense to market locally because it would be cost prohibitive to travel too far; your expenses would quickly outstrip your profits.
On the other hand, if you were providing, say, a course on house cleaning (I know, dumb, but just making a point) which the reader can use pretty much anywhere, then sell that thing to anyone who willing to buy it ;-)

Usually, the larger the audience the better. Of course certain demographics can play a part too. That aside, for your first niche, I recommend going with something you’re passionate about such as a hobby, etc. It will make the learning process more fun vs work.

I just have a question guys.
I am planning on making my website as popular as possible but as i am doing my lessons now, I took the free domain with siterubix, my question is if this would affect my ability to get traffic and make money on my site.
Would I be better of using a bought .com domain? I would think having your own domain that you bought will be better?

In the long run, a domain site is better. You can start with the free siterubix domain and later transfer it to your own domain :)

Hi Michael - yes, you are correct. It is possible to make money with a siterubix website, but it is more challenging. If you have a .com domain, you are seen as more of an authority and taking your business more seriously. Don't forget you need to be a premium member to buy and host your domain here at WA. Good luck, Diane

Having your own .com website is better, in my opinion. You can still setup and use your .siterubix.com website and then later, if you go premium, you can simply move your .siterubix.com site to your purchased .com. It's very easy to move it.

2. Can i edit my webpage (not siterubix,com) in different ways than using siterubix or WA? In other words.. what will happen to my page when i decide one day to leave WA community?
3. I wanted to pick one specific domain name but its now available. Is it worth to buy that .com page or is it better to pick .net (for example). I thing websites with .com looks more professional than .net .org ...
P.S. I hope #2 doesnt sound like i want to run away from WA today. Im only 2 days here but im really excited about this. This second question just means if i have full access and control above my website.
Thanks for answers and wish you all nice day.

Hi Erik - if you buy your domain through WA, it is just the same as any hosting site - it is yours to do with as you wish. Editing is done through WordPress. (Remember you need to be a premium member to buy and host here). Should you wish to leave, you are given 30 days to move your website to another host. You are right in thinking that a .com domain has the most authority. All the best, Diane

After tentatively deciding on a niche I went to GoDaddy and looked for available domain names. I found two domain name variations available that fit my niche "OptionsInsights com" and "OptionInsights com" and I registered them. Now I am motivated to start building my niche website because I have a cool domain address to start from.
ItsRyan

That's great! Will you go premium and host them here or go it alone at GoDaddy? I also have domain names registered at GoDaddy because like you I recently purchased them and GoDaddy won't let me move them. I did find, however, that I can still host my site here, so that was comforting. Follow me and when you go premium, I can help you get this setup.
I finally have time to really delve into this but now realising I have less an 21 hours left to ask questions. Anyone else in a similar situation? Did you upgrade to premium or decide to stick with a free account? How has either decision worked out for you? Thank you in advance!

You should think about doing a WA blog post that talks about your experiences, Susan; particularly the point you make here.
I see a lot of new people coming in thinking that WA is some kind of "magic bullet" and they'll be rolling in the cash by the end of their first week.
I don't think many of them realize that it may take months of hard work before they make their first commission, and I'm afraid they'll get frustrated and quit before they ever get there.
This business IS amazing if we just have a little patience.

Hi to be totally transparent, I actually upgraded months after I created my free account. I hated WA for a while because all their affiliates were telling me the truth about making money online, while the MLM company I had joined told me its easy and could be done within months.
I wanted to believe them but as time went on, the truth started to dawn on me, it's more than possible to make money online but there are no shortcuts.
I have been here just over two year but it is only the last year or so that I have consistently.taken action on the training here and it works, it takes time to see results but it does work.
Take your time, go through the lessons and then make a decision. If you have any question after your free period is up, just give me a message through my website ( paytoplayscam.com) and I'll try to help as best I can.

I think woodworking is an okay niche, though there are probably lots of different subgroups that are available. I would probably have a site title that allowed for expansion of other plans, but then focus in the beginning on one type of plan. For instance, write all about dressers for 10 lengthy posts or more and then branch out to kitchen tables, desks, bookshelves, etc.

You can then apply to affiliate programmes such as Amazon, and post reviews and links for their products. If any visitors to your site purchase anything through your links you earn a commission. The training will take you step by step of the entire process.

I only joined here 2 months ago, so it is early days. My website is up and running and looks very professional despite having no experience. It is generally accepted that it takes at least 3 months to make any money, and more realistically 6 months. Having said that, I had my first Amazon sale yesterday!
The training is excellent and really walks you through everything. As you complete each task, it builds up your website. You don't need to know any coding. You will get great support from the community, especially in Live Chat. Just jump into the training and see how you get on.

Hello Matt,
I see you have received an answer from Diane and I couldn't say it better. I had absolutely no experience not only in marketing nor in computer, so I really began from scratch. And I had to do it in English. So this gives you an idea of the quality of the training. This is a high quality school, a highly constructive community, and seeing that you have a child, I cannot imagine a better job for parents.
To inspire you there is for instance: 3 Years At Wealthy Affiliate but also: Vegas 2019. Thank you Kyle & Carson! Take a look at what I wrote about the very beginning: Survival Camp during Starter life Never hesitate to reach out, there is no need to get stuck, we all work together.
Wishing you much happiness,
N with a smile

Matt, what Diane said, there are rules here that prohibit posting our website URLs in order to 'toot our own horn' in the questions and answer sections. We are allowed to share our URLs (website addresses) on a specific thread that Kyle started, or on our Profile pages (lower right hand corner).
Regarding success, it depends on a lot of things. Google has to deal with millions of websites on a daily basis, and in order to make things fair and orderly, lots of new changes happen consistantly. It used to be easy to get Google's attention, for a search someone would do for a product, but not anymore. Now Google looks more for quality and consistancy in new content.
It's been mentioned here many times that one has to write and add new content weekly, some do it daily (I can't), to get your pages and posts to top ranking in searches.
Be prepared to write a lot, choose a subject (niche) that you will be able to write about consistantly. If you want readers to click through and buy something from an affiliate link, you have to bring them to your site. That's it in a nut shell :)

Hi everyone! Im just a newbie here and still learning. By just reading your commenst, I learned alot! Thanks for your help.
I have some kind of experience in writing reviews for various brands online but I have stopped writing long back.
Reviews can be my niche, such as reviews on different health products, beauty products, movies, and yoga & exercises because I'm very much keen to Know about healthy lifestyle.
Could you please advise me on the same.
Also tell me if I buy my own domain name then I won't have siterubix(.)com in my website URL. E.g. if I create free website then I will have health(dot)siterubix com but if I buy my own domain name then it would be like health(dot)com.
I have taken health as an example.
Kindly advise

I have been creating keywords as i intend to write a lot of reviews on my new website. some of the keywords are 'best (topic/product) reviews' etc. Some of these keywords/search terms return good results in Jaxy, however I would not be writing a post called 'best (topic/product) reviews' (in essence a review of reviews!). i would be writing a 'best car review' for example.
My question is, do i use the keyword type 'best (topic/product) reviews'? or just 'best (topic/product)'
I hope this makes sense.

Does the amount of content that you write about your subject depend on the design you choose for your website, such as columns, graphics, etc. Does one design allow for only a 50-word blog while another one requires at least 500 words? Or is the sky the limit for the amount of content you write? (that would help me choose my niche)
I may be making this more difficult? Thanks for your input & patience!

There's no limitations to the articles you write based on your theme. You'll want to shoot for 1000-1500 words and more with your articles. Don't worry. No matter how long the article is it will fit :) Just choose a niche that you have a genuine interest in and follow the training step by step. You'll learn how to attract visitors to your site through your articles and how to give them quality content which leads to conversions. Best of luck!

I enjoy what I am learning so far. Also discovered that the internet is full of scammers. WA appears to be the real thing. My goals have changed after starting the course as I set realistic monthly expectations of 25 to 50 dollars per month to begin with. I no its small but I am waiting to surpass these mini goals which for me is easier to work towards with out a lot of pressure.

Just complete the session on choosing a niche. Very informative and inspiring. I think I have got some good idea in terms of deciding my niche. The only issue is at this moment my niche seems to involve quite a few items instead of focusing on just one or two. I may still need to think a little bit more about it in order to finally determine which one exactly to start with as my specific niche. I welcome any suggestions and comments on this. Thank you, folks!

Perhaps the best advice I ever received was to think small with the content, and think big with the domain.
What I mean is when you are writing your articles, keep them relatively tight, focusing on just one item at a time. This will help you build traffic faster for at least that one thing. But keep your domain name larger, more of a category than a particular product. This will allow you to expand your niche later.
For example, let's say you want to build a photography site, but you already know that business is highly competitive. So, you decide to niche it all the way down to, say, "Jewish wedding photography". Now your first round of articles would be focused on that niche.
However, you also know that Jewish people aren't the only ones getting married, and you may want to create an additional series for Christians, Muslims, Buddhists, etc. later on. Thus, you wouldn't necessarily want a domain called "JewishWeddingPhotograpy" or you effectively cut off all your other potential readers.
Instead, while your initial content is all about Jewish weddings, at least until you get it built up, you make your domain name "BestWeddingPhotos" or something. That way all you have to do is create a new category on your site for the additional niches when you're ready.
Make sense?

Thank you so much, my friend! Wonderful advice. I was thinking of my niche, domain name, and website name all the afternoon while working out at the gym. I will certainly take your advice into consideration.
I looked at your profile, which is impressive to me. Seems like we may have some common interest in leadership and management. Let's keep exchanging ideas and walk together toward success.
Thank you again. I do appreciate your comments.

My money goal #1>>I have a service based business and I have a goal to add products related to the service (things I'd have to buy) to sell on the website to add to my income. Am I on the right train of thought here? I wouldn't even have to change the name of my website lol!!maybe add one more word. I am only on day 2 here but so impressed.. In truth I would love to be able to make enough income from affiliate products to replace the service I personally provide. But ideally keep my service and just sub contract and of course still market products. I am in the baby stages of everything. That is why I am here and very motivated just from this short beginning. Thank you WA!!!

Of course. It's your business, so you can build it in whatever way makes the most sense for your circumstances.
My only advice at this stage of your training is to focus more on the product side if you can. What I mean is that your existing business already has a service element.
The biggest challenge with service-based businesses on the internet is controlling scale. While it SOUNDS thrilling to have more business than you can keep up with, it can quickly grow out of control and turn into the nightmare scenario: 100+ hour weeks.
But if you focus much of the online stuff towards products -- actual or digital -- you can effectively increase your income exponentially without too much additional labor.
Hope this helps. :-)

I tried a different program as well and they didnt explain things in order very well. They said to go step by step. One step said do this task and the next said dont do that without doing this. It was stupid, confusing and expensive. This one seems better so far. I'm more excited about this than the other. I dont even remember what it was called now.

Hello,
Can one add affiliates to their website at this beginning stage or does one have to have lots of traffic before adding affiliates?
Also, at what point can one let readers know that they are getting paid through affiliate marketing? Is it possible to add something to the "Privacy Policy" page?
Thanks

You need to have an affiliate disclosure as soon as you start including links. No, I would not add it to the privacy policy; it needs to be it's own page.
As far as when to add, it varies depending on the affiliate program itself. Each program has it's own standards. Some will approve you as soon as you have a site. Other's will want to see a minimum level of traffic. You just have to read each one's affiliate agreement to see what their requirements are.

Just note that some affiliate programs will not approve your registration if you do not have much quality content. That's why it comes later in training step by step. If you follow training closely there is a reason for everything being added slowly as you build a good standing in Google and also much content to ensure ads will have traffic for affiliate programs.
BrokFTJFH

The issue with adding affiliate links right away is that affiiliate programs usually won't approve you until you have some content on your website. My recommendation is to apply once you have several posts on your site, then wait to add links until you have traffic coming in. Affiliate links won't earn you anything until you have traffic so no reason to have them until you have traffic.

Is it true that if a person clicks on your product link on your website and goes on Amazon that you also get a commission on everything in their cart and not just the product? Is there a time period that the clicked link is "sticky" and you still get a commission if they didn't buy the first time around?

Yeah, last affiliate always gets the credit though. That is the case for all affiliate programs.
As for cookie length, Amazon is the shortest I have seen. Many offer much longer, the typical I would say is 30 days. We offer LIFETIME here at WA with our affiliate program. :)

Hi, I'm want to make a website for a game that just got released and doesn't have a dedicated website. However I can't think of the types of products that I can market there that would produce a good income. I understand that it would be different computers and gear like mice, keyboards and headphones, but people don't buy them by the bulk on a daily basis.
I was thinking of having this website for tips and guides and such, and have the products marketed on the side, such as the kind of gear popular players use.

That's my point, the main focus of the website would be purely to have different guides to the game and having these products marketed on the side really wouldn't produce much income since it's not the main focus of the website. Especially since you would only be getting a small % of the actual sale.
If the website picks up really quickly and has some real fanatics of the game and the streamers that play it, MAYBE it will produce $50 a month.
So my new plan is to just have a gaming accessories and gear focused website.
Hope this helps!

I would do some research first and careful of copy rights if its not your game you could do a review on the game then add content about the best playing lap tops Gaming accessories as you go through the training you will learn about keywords content and how to apply Affiliate links you will learn about how to get good rankings with Google too so going through the training asking questions your niche will open up into products or services that you could tap into latter

I have two questions, first, I have a privacy policy page that came with my theme I chose, should I keep it?
Second, I'm concerned about copy right. Is it something I need to be worried about? Lets say someone does a site about comic books, would they be in danger of being sued? Then there is also the concern of imagery on the box of an affiliate item that is linked. This may be a silly question, but I spent my early ears as an artist, and we were taught from day one to fear the copy right system.

Having said that, it does look interesting, and there does seem to be a fan base out there. I'm not sure if you ran a Jaaxy check yet, but the numbers look extremely good. In fact, the keyword phrase, "anglo concertina lessons", looks especially promising, as there is good traffic and very little competition.
If you were to spin your articles in that direction, you could potentially rule that market. :-)

For my niche I'm thinking of focusing on travel information. I don't want to focus on large well known places like Big Ben or the Statue of Liberty, but smaller places that allow you to experience the culture that may be around or near those larger landmarks. That way my readers can see the big stuff, but also immerse in the culture of where they're traveling as well.
