I want to be clearly outline the earning potential here to help you understand the TRUE benefit of sharing content. I want to also break down the commission model for you and what sort of compensation you might be able to expect if you share something that becomes viral (which is a strong possibility with quality content).
Commission Breakdown
If you are a Starter member, here is your commission structure:$1 commission for every referral that has set-up account (credit)
$17.00 commissions every month (for a monthly premium member)
$130.00 commissions every year (for a yearly premium member)

So simply by sharing content, you have the ability to earn revenue instantly when someone signs-up for a Starter Membership at Wealthy Affiliate and sets up their account ($1 credit).
Let’s say you share a link to content here at Wealthy Afffiliate (could be anywhere) and get 10 free sign-ups ($10 in credits) and one of these people continues on as a monthly member ($22.50) for 5 months ($112.50). Or if you are a starter member, you will earn $17 x 5 = $85 from a single referral.
You have earned a total of $112.50 in commissions simply by sharing something for FREE! That is just the start of the potential here and I am going to explain the "viral" component of the share feature.
The Viral Component
When you share something from Wealthy Affiliate, it passes your affiliate link through in the share link. That is great and that is extremely powerful. However, there is a viral component to this that I think you will find very exciting.
Say you share something and the person you share it with then "reshares" it. Guess what happens?
Your affiliate links is passed along the CHAIN!
So if you share content and it gets reshared by others, you are going to get credit for all of that traffic and the conversions that it generates.
Imagine this...
You share one of my latest blog posts on Google Penguin via your Facebook wall and it goes out instantly to a couple hundred of your friends. This is quality information that a lot of people will be interested about and many people will ikely reshare this content.
Let's say you have 200 friends on Facebook and 10 of them share it with their friends and they each have 200 friends.
All of a sudden your shared content is viewed not just by your 200 friends, but the 2,000 additional people because of the "reshare" viral component. And this chain of sharing could continue on, potentially into the 10,000's of views on your shared article.
Let's say that the blog post you have shared becomes viral and you end up getting 1,000 clicks on it. Let's say that 5% of these people sign-up. That is 50 referrals and $50 in your account instantly. Let's say of these 50 people, 10% sign-up to become monthly members (also realisitic).
5 x $22.50 = $112.50/mth recurring revenue
Your Earnings for this ONE Share: $112.50 monthly recurring revenue + $50 instant payday!
The viral power of this system is REAL and it is going to create A LOT of successful members!

Hi guys, I've had WealthyAffiliate bookmarked in my browser for over a year now, but have failed to sign up due to lack of time! Now that is not an issue, I'm motivated and excited to learn as many concepts and viewpoints on marketing as I can. Thanks for this opportunity, and I look forward to learning!

The new "sharing" component is going to be a good way for you to get others interested and benefit financially from as well, so let me know if you have any questions about this as well.

Hey "Chripper":
Welcome! We've all been there where we wanted to gen in but was afraid of investing money before seeing any ROI. What's ironic is that people (myself included) are willing to pay $10,000/yr for traditional education but are gun shy to pay $600/yr to learn how to create an online business that is basically recession proof. In fact, problems are money making opportunities for online marketers.
Lucky you (or any newbie here), there is this SIMPLE "Sharing" business model that anyone can run with. We never had this a few years ago. I hope you don't give up on your dream of making a living online.
Think of it this way. You could go out and invest tens of thousands in a brick and mortar business and deal with all the other obstacles that go along with it. Or, you can work on a business here for $50/mo "rent," with support from tutorials and real people, whenever it its convenient for you. That sounds a lot more doable for the ordinary person, yes? Now go learn and share something:)

@Chripper - Welcome to WA! I look forward to getting to know you helping with your online business. You really do have it ALL at your fingertips. Glad that you've had us in the back of your mind for over a year...time to get down to business :)
@SquidooSlfMstr - Couldn't have said it better myself. People (myself included) line up at Offline Universities with checks in hand ready to pay tens of thousands of dollars for an education. In the online world, WA is as close as it gets to an offline degree, but you're getting much more. Offline universities could NOT teach online business. They cannot stay current enough. WA is the ONLY place you can get a real education in online business, and for a fraction of the cost of offline institutions. Well said.
The reason most members I've talked to over the years take time deciding to join WA is because of all the scams and misleading products out there. With our new sharing capabilities we can now give people a glimpse of the immense value inside the exclusive WA members area. I hope this will help many people find their online business "Home" in WA.

Awesome training Kyle, thank you so much. This is definitely a golden opportunity to be pursued. Thanks K&C to you both. The sample schedule is a very nice bonus, one question, could you elaborate on "Share your email link to this post in at least 5 places"
for some reason I don't quite understand that one, I may be overthinking it though.

I have always been amazed at the volume and quality of information here at WA. Sharing will only enable more to benefit from the knowledge. People are able to create their own opinions from information viewed - true seller. Another very welcomed change.

Blog theme set-up? If you are referring to the website builder, you can find it under Build Websites within WA. We removed the "Blog & Funnel" system because it was highly outdated and was essentially duplicate content which goes against all of Google's ranking algos. Much better off to create your own content, from your own perspective and own voice.
Glad you like the new look and hopefully we will see more of you inside the new WA! :)
