OK, awesome. You now have your target audience, in other words, the direction for your brand chosen. That is great and don't worry about this not being "perfect" at this point, as you move forward the pieces of the puzzle are going to come together.
Starting with a big PIECE today, your website. We are going to be taking our brand/audience idea and building out a website.
Building a Website Ain't Scary, It's FUN!
Building a website sounds like a "scary" process, but fortunately you have access to the most advanced, yet simplistic website platform in the world here at Wealthy Affiliate. We pride ourselves as a technology company here at Wealthy Affiliate and we are the industry leaders in the website development space.
I am not going to toot our horn any longer, I would rather you experience the website builder and platform for itself. The first step today is going to be building your website, which will literally take you less than 30 seconds.
Click the SiteBuilder link within the menu, and you are going to be ready to rock here (and complete the next task).
Below I have included a video walking you through the SiteRubix platform here at WA and showing you how quickly and efficiently you can build a website here at Wealthy Affiliate.
DISCUSS VIDEO: Building Your Website in 30 Seconds, Literally
Task 1: Building Your Website
Your website is your foundation of your business. It is where all of your traffic is ultimately going to come to, where you are going to build brand and trust within the industry, and where you can promote products/services and generate revenue!
The SiteBuilder platform here at WA is the most simplistic, yet advanced in the industry. It is going to less than 30 seconds to get a full operational, profit ready Wordpress website up and running online.
There are 4 steps in the website build process, that I am going to walk you through here. To access the SiteBuilder and EVERYTHING related to your website, you will simply click the light blue "SiteRubix" button in the main menu.
Step 1: Choose the Kind of Website
There are really TWO options here, on a FREE website or on your OWN domain. Ideally, you will have your own domain, but that can come with time.
You can "register" your very own domains right within Wealthy Affiliate using our state of the art SiteDomains platform, which will allow you to instantly set-up your own domain for your own use.
If you are just starting out as a Starter member, you will be building a website on the .siterubix.com domain, which is a completely free website. You can build and host up to 2 FREE websites as a Starter.
As a Premium member, you can build and host up to 25 free websites and the ability to create 25 sites on your own domains (total 50 websites). That is more than adequate to drive many multi-million dollar businesses over time.
For the sake of this training, we are going to be choosing "On a free domain".
Do know that within the Premium membership, you can easily MOVE a free .siterubix.com button to a registered domain (one you may own) using the "Premium Only" MOVE feature. So by all means start off with a free website.
Step 2: Choose a Domain
Remember last lesson when I chose my "brand". In this step, I am going to be placing my brand name into the "domain name" field. This is because this will be my website URL and my brand moving forward.
As you can see below, I have added my brand "real deal affiliate" into the domain field.
When you type in your domain, it will let you know if it is available or not. In my case it was, but if your first choice is not available simply do another search until you find a domain name that works for you.
You cannot put spaces in your domain name, hence why my domain is "realdealaffiliate".
Step 3: Choose a Website Name
The name of your website should match your domain, but it just needs to be grammatically correct (with proper spacing). You can see below my example of this:
Domain: realdealaffiliate.siterubix.com
Title: Real Deal Affiliate
It is as simple as that. Don't overthink this step, your title will be the same as your domain.
Step 4: Choose a Design
The last step is choosing a "look" for your theme. As a Starter member you will have access to 12, hand picked quality designs.
As a Premium member, you will have access to over 2,464 designs (as shown below) on your website. These are referred to as "Themes".
Choose a design that you like.
Click on the design you like, and then you will be able to build your site.
SiteRubix, a Next Level Website and Hosting Platform.
You are going to notice that there are many other website features allocated within the SiteRubix menu. I don't want to eat up too much of your time here, but it is important that you understand the incredible benefits of the SiteRubix platform.
The powerful hosting you have access to here is unparalleled in the Managed Wordpress hosting industry. We truly specialize here in providing a secure, robust and FAST platform for you to run your website.
We know that your website IS your business, and it is important that you have the most advanced technology to keep your business operating at 100% at all times of the day.
The following are just some of the powerful features included within the SiteRubix platform here at WA.
- SiteManager (Starter & Premium)
- SiteContent (Starter & Premium)
- SiteBuilder (Starter & Premium)
- SiteDomains (Starter & Premium)
To make your sites secure and fast, we have some SiteRubix EXCLUSIVE technologies to make sure your websites are operating at lightening speeds, but also in a very secure way that protects you from hackers, spammers, and all forms of erroneous attacks.
- SiteSpeed (Premium Only)
- SiteProtect (Premium Only)
- SiteSSL (Premium Only)
- SiteComments (Premium Only)
- SiteFeedback (Premium Only)
- SiteSupport (Premium Only)
There you have it, the low down of the SiteRubix platform and you have your website officially up and running online. Exciting stuff. As we move forward within the training we are going to be building out your website content, and working to get indexed and ranked in Google (and do so for free).

The main point that I am getting from the article is that your audience really needs to be a segment of the population the potentially has an interest in affiliate marketing. The first site had a greater focus on interests, hobbies etc. and the basics of Word Press. Boot Camp has a greater focus on the "making money" end of things. This is just my perception however. It takes a good bit of thinking to decide your target audience.

Hello. ok. I need some clarification.
Do you get the name for your site based on the kwywords you decide to use?
And I am running into a brick wall on thinking about how I can promote WA except to write a review comparing it to the other program I am a member of. But even with that I don't have a site name and can't think of one.
I would like people to find WA though and have them connect with a program that really does work. I know it does. But I am not sure how I am going to get past this brand name/website name stuff.

Hi Jessica,
I just recently asked the same question and what they said was the domain needs to be short and something people can remember. It is the keywords and title in your post I think will get people to find you offering Wealthy Affiliate as a solution.
I think i am right but you might want to get a few other peoples comments.Good luck with it.

Not sure i will articulate my question right, but here we go, is domain name and niche the same thing? for example i want to promote WA so i want the word affiliate in my domain name, is that good enough as my website direction or i need to narrow it down? hope that makes sense

Hi Manila,
Don't worry...your question makes perfect sense :)
First of all, if you've decided to recommend WA then I suggest you take a look at the affiliate bootcamp training. It's similar to the Online Entrepreneur Certification training, but it is more specific about targeting audiences who might have an interest in what WA has to offer. Here's the link to the training: Getting Started! Regarding your domain name, it would ideally need to be linked to the nature of your niche, and including "affiliate" would therefore be a good idea. In the bootcamp training you will see Kyle's example where he also has "affiliate" in his domain.
I will just add that you don't necessarily have to include "affiliate" in the title of your domain name as it depends on the overall angle of your website.
For example, I recommend WA on one of my websites but my domain includes the words "work from home" and doesn't include "affiliate". That's because I am targeting people who are looking for ways to work from home online.
The bootcamp training expands on this a great deal and will help you to focus on a specific segment of a more general niche, making your domain name choice a lot easier.
Hope this helps for now, Manila!

Hello, I like the like idea of building a lifestyle around affiliate marketing and was wondering if I'm on the right track with my niche: Remote work lifestyle. I want to target people who desire the ability to choose what time they wake up and work from anywhere, whether it be from a bed, a cozy coffee shop or a private island.
I think I can narrow it down and make it funny with something catchy like: "I wake up when I want" or "I work from bed" but I'm worried about it not being specific enough or not SEO friendly.
What do you think?

If you're looking for a title for your website, I like your funny names. "I work from bed" would certainly catch my attention xD You can always use the website Tagline to enter an SEO friendly description of what your website will offer.
The "work from anywhere" niche is fairly saturated (with lots of scams out there as well) but is an "evergreen" niche and if your content is well written and informative and you apply your keywords and all the training from WA correctly, this can work for you!
I can already see that you're an "out of the box" thinker, so if you apply this to your content you can bring readers another spin on the "work from anywhere" niche rather than the same blah-blah and empty promises that are available on most other "work from anywhere" opportunity blogs.
Once Google notices your uniqueness and authoritativeness, you will have no problem ranking on Pg1 in Google. And then you will start seeing the traffic and the $ increasing.
The training will show you the best way to apply all the SEO principles to your website and content.
Just my thoughts. Hope this helped.

@WandavdH Awesome, thank you for your feedback and fantastic advice. I couldn't agree more, I want to do something different and set myself apart from the other people doing the same thing in the remote lifestyle space. Not sure exactly what that looks like yet but I'm optimistic and have a few ideas brewing :)

I am thinking about going for the Affiliate marketers direction. I also want to spread this program. Since I am visually impaired, I'd like to tel others in the same situation that they can make money from their homes and that it is accessible with screen reading software. Isn't this the right direction to take then? Many thanks!

I've also started the same way and after a week I decided to get involved on the Affiliate side for the same reason as you. If your instincts tells you that than you should listen to it. You won't regret it. I am now ready to be in a good position to expose my referral link to the world and make money. Don't worry though that it seems you're redoing the training. You'll go through it swiftly as you've learned what to do during the first part.

You can go back and do this at any time.
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!

If I look at your Home Page Kyle it shows Part of the welcome from your "about me".

I appreciate the training on writing reviews. I have one big, glaring question ... how can I give a "real" review of a product I have not personally used? To me, it seems that if I haven't used a product then I'm not qualified to review it. On the other hand, I don't necessarily want to buy everything I intend to sell. Any suggestions?
Kyle
Premium
You can review products without buying them, in an ideal situation you would own every product but there are circumstances where this isn't cost efficient or necessary.
There are many reviews on Amazon itself (if it is an Amazon product), within forums, other websites, product information, discussion boards, the actual product website, etc that you can leverage to offer a thorough, informative, truthful, and highly engagement review for your audience for just about any product you can imagine.
It all comes down to doing your research and this is part of the process when writing any content, whether it be for a review or whether it is for a product/service or a generic sort of article.

if you really know and understand a product and you see someone selling something there usually is an opportunity to explore it, test it, read their literature and you sort of know straight away how it measures up in the market - what sort of value they are offering with that product
the problem only comes if someone reviews something they haven't researched and don't really know about, and those bluff reviews are easy to spot

I for one think it is a good idea. I am one of those people who never used social media very much and I definitely had a learning curve with all the different ones. And, I'm still learning.
It would be nice to find one place where well done tutorials are done for the different social medias. I've had to go here, there and everywhere searching for good training all in one place.
Many people just starting out also don't engage in social media and building their businesses will be the first time really getting involved with it.

Hi,
I am building my website and in the training it shows you what to do with a free website. I bought a domain,and am not sure if i do the other 3 steps listed under the free website? In step 2 I put in my domain name i bought.
Another question is was I suppose to click anything else when I bought the domain?Right now on the site manager it says the name of my domain ,and it says "no website wordpress install".Is that how it should be, or should i click on" install website"(i do not know what I am doing)?

I click on the move button in site manager to move my niche siterubix.com to my purchased domain , but my other website for the WA program is not moved yet so it is still saying "no wordpress website installed" but it is just a matter of pressing the move button in site manager after I build out some more content on the siterubix.com version.

Hey there - not sure if this is the right answer but I find that it is far easier to write a good honest review if you have actually tried the product yourself. At worst if you know someone who you trust has used something and they rave about it then that is the next best thing. But I think honesty is definitely a key. Don't leave a review on something you haven't tried out yourself.
Hope that helps!

When I think about "refining" my brand I think about the frustration I've experienced in learning the internet. It is not "intuitive" to me, at least not the marketing aspect of using the internet. I relate well to people of all ages, so I don't want to needlessly restrict myself. However, I think I might like helping people who have found the internet as "esoteric" as I have.

that's why they say choose a niche you love, because you have to learn your niche, and it's easier to learn about something interesting
basically get to know whatever aspect of the WA product you are promoting - you know the way it is about people - when they like something and know all about it then they just won't shut up, they talk about it all the time, everything they do seems to give them an excuse to talk even more - that's the way we get with our websites :)
but it's a good test for you as to whether this niche is for you or if another subject works better - jump in first and see if you like it - it can be quite addictive

Also, I'm wondering if "my wealthy affiliate journal" was a bad domain choice. I'm looking at everyone else's domain names and thinking I should rename mine. Or get a new one? What do you think? Is my site name too obvious or silly?

Hello, looking for some advice please. I completed the initial training just over a week ago and I posted about it. A few people told me to make sure I do the Affiliate bootcamp training as well, as it was well worth while.
Thing is I've just started to have a look at it and I'm not sure whether I should be doing this at the same time as developing my original blog. It certainly looks like a great thing, but I'm worried about taking my off the ball of the original website before it has started getting good amounts of traffic and conversions.
Feedback about others experiences would be gratefully received.

Your niche ideas are definitely viable directions for your niche. You need to choose one when starting out, what are you most passionate about?
When deciding on a niche and trying to narrow down to a more specific niche, I recommend you ask yourself the following question:
I want to help people that ______________.
Fill in the blank and you are going to be much closer to a specific audience. After you do this and if you want to run any further ideas by me, let me know and I will give you a hand. :)

Is the direction for my business "Making Money while Traveling" Too Broad and competitive? I thought about that cause I already have a fairly successful travel website focussed on Family Vacations and Airfare/Travel Deals, so I thought I would expand on that and do another site focussed on how to make money from your laptop while traveling, but I just googled that and it has quite a few results. Should I work on finding an even more focused niche?

So I added links for my first Wealthy Affiliate review from the program details tab but are those links directed to my account personally so I can see who is clicking on them? Or do I have to finish Affiliate Bootcamp to receive credit for the links? I know I read the answer but cannot seem to find it.

Yes, if you got your affiliate links from the Program Details page, you will get full credit for any referrals these.
You can get all of your affiliate links from the WA Affiliate Program page Traci:

Here you will get everything from your stats, the program details and commission structure, your affiliate links, create your custom messages, get banners, and some other awesome features.

Yes your country is supported and web business is not only related to your country, it is worldwide. So, sure you are eligible to do this business.
First of all, you need to think how to drive visitors/traffic in your website. Once you get visitors, such as more than 1000 visitors per month, then you can apply with advertisement network like Google Adsense, Media.net and so on for free of cost. They will give you the code which you need to add in your website to display ads. Then they will find out the suitable ads for your website automatically and pay you for displaying their ads on your website. Similarly, you can sell your own products from your website or you can apply to a company like Amazon.com to sell the products through your website and get a commission for each sale.
It will at least take 4-5 months to start earning from your own website. But, it depends how much time you can give per day. If you can give more than 8 hours a day for this business, even you can earn within a month.
If you don't have Paypal, then you can get money through bank wire transfer. That is available in every country in every bank.
Everything has been explained in the Wealthy Affiliate course which is very easy to understand. So, I suggest you to keep on taking Wealthy Affiliate lessons by clicking “Get Started Here/Certification“ green bar on the left-hand side menu of Wealthy Affiliate. At the end of those lessons, there are some tasks which you need to complete. Move step by step from lesson 1 without skipping any lessons or tasks. I repeat, without skipping any lessons or tasks. If you move in that way, soon you will understand the system of WA and even will start to build your online business.
Please always feel free to ask me if you need any help from my side. I'm your sponsor and I'm always happy to help you. Even you can follow me and message me on my Facebook page if you need my urgent help. This is my Facebook page:- https://www.facebook.com/The.Suman.Roka/

i am in the "Your Initial Framework Of Content" sectional training. My website niche is selling Wealthy Affiliate, however, the domain name is 21centuryoffice. I'm writing "About Me," in the content, can I mention Wealthy Affiliate and how it has changed my life or will I stick to my domain name? Not sure, yet, how this works. Please help - thank you.

Mentioning your association with WA on your website requires an affiliate disclosure, per FTC regulations. Also, if you create a post containing your WA affiliate link you will also need to also have an affiliate disclosure above your link. Google 'affiliate disclosure' for a full breakdown on placement and what the FTC requires in regards to affiliate links and affiliate success stories.

In my review, if I publish it, does the link take them to my website or to the WA website?

If you add your affiliate link within your review, and publish it, then it will take them to WA.
Regarding changing the theme...
If you go to Appearance => Themes (and "customize" for your particular theme ) within the back office of your website, you will likely see your home page header there which you can upload an image for.
There are typically many other settings in there as well that you can use to manipulate theme colours, font colours, theme images, logos, menus, structure/layout, etc.
See attached image for reference.

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!

If you want to promote WA and work within the "make money niche", go through the Affiliate Bootcamp training. If you want to build a business within another niche, head through the Get Started Here training.
Focus on just one though. You are going to be much more successful if you focus on one business/website versus trying to do too many things at once. You can always diversify down the road.
Hope this helps you out here Mary!

I want to get started ASAP & I have some people that I want to help get started. Is this easy for seniors that are not that computer savy to be able to earn money. Once we upgrade for $19. to premium we have to keep paying $49./mo to stay at premium. Ok as long as we earn at least that amount in the beginning. I am very close to the vest with finances and would like to get to $300./day = $9000./mo ASAP so I can accomplish my other goals with Modular Built Homes. I want to help my sister in NM to earn at least $70/day or $2100.+/mo, but of course I want her to triple that with time. Do they have to say that LouisFlaco1 sent them to get commissions or how does that work. I have a ton of seniors that are struggling that I can reach on a daily(5 days/week) by going to senior centers all over SoCal. I came here because I got scammed by Money Sucking Websites that said I could earn $500./day or $15K/mo from day 1. They never called me back to give me a user name or password. I got the charge reversed & when I did a review you came up as a legit company. I sure hope you are the answer to my prayers as I will put in the time to make this sublime. I will most likely upgrade to premium real soon. Lou

Yeah, it is $19 first month, then $49 per month for a premium membership. There is also a yearly option, that is $359 for the entire year (works out to be $29 per month).
Everybody earns money at a different rate, so it really depends on the person. I have actually created a discussion on this that will put things into perspective for you here: If I Work at This 8 Hours Per Day. Have a read of that, I know it will give you a lot of insight into this exact topic. ;)
The first month is typically your foundation building stage. In order to build a website that earns you consistent revenue, you need this foundation. After this, you are going to start seeing traffic and as you build this out, there are many different ways in which you can generate revenue.
Personally it took me into my 3rd month of busting my butt to make my first dollar online, by month 6 though I was making consistent income and by the year mark, I was almost full time.
But guess what would have happened if I quit during those first two "trying" months. I would not be where I am at today. Just wanted to put things into perspective for you.
I am in this journey with you, so is the community here at WA. If you want to jump in, work hard, take action, and persist. Amazing things can and will happen!

Working on wording for my niche idea. Paying off college dept and still supporting a family. Living better then paycheck to paycheck. For me this is an important topic as I am just graduating and dread the amount I have to pay for my student loans.

Absolutely the direction that you can head.
When you choose a domain, you are going to want to choose something that is "brandable" versus something that has keywords within it. The reason this is the case is because as you build out your website, you can target as many keywords as you like within the content (that is how you will rank).
I have created a discussion here outlining the process and what to look for when choosing a domain name: How Do I Choose a Good Domain Name? This should help you out here and if you ever want to run any domains by me, simply let me know and I will give you some feedback.
PS. You can host up to 25 of your own domains here within the Premium membership on our state of the art hosting platform. :)

I've built my WA promotional site as https://www.learn-to-earn-online.com
I'm a bit worried this might be too generic.
One target audience I want to attract is ex-military Veterans, being one myself.
I intend to build a site based around this but I'd be interested to know how posting veteran related content on my generic learn-to-earn site might pan out.
I feel this site might be good to promote offline, for example, giving people business cards or leaflet dropping, as we should be promoting WA offline too.
Any thoughts and opinions would be greatly appreciated :-)

what I love about this platform, Rich is that you get so many ideas.
I know of someone who actually created a meet-up at his local coffee shop. You could put up fliers where you think veterans would see it, find a place you can conduct a meeting for free or at low cost, and then just talk about Wealthy Affiliate and have a video to show.
There really is no one-size-fits-all approach here.

Hi Pedro,
I see you're getting right into like me. I'm also at that point of my training, but don't worry about being confused or lost. Your questions will be answered even if I don't have the answer for it.
One thing that I have done to stop the confusion is to go back to the lesson that you started with that got you to where you're at and see if you missed or overlooked something. It happens, so don't feel as if you're not getting it.
It is a lot of info to take in, but in time you will start to see it unfold and the ideas will become clear to you. The ideas that you have sound great and with a little bit of guidance from the lessons that are laid out for us to follow should really put you on track.
I wish i could be the one recommending to you where to go from here, but I too am in your position and all I can do is share the experience that I'm going through while I'm learning here in WA.
It's truly a great platform and you will gain tons of knowledge from it if you take it in bits and pieces and give yourself a break to process it all. It's a process and you'll have to also demonstrate that to your visitors, clients, followers or who ever you bring in through your website. You will set the example for them as you progress in your journey.
I hope you find the answer you're looking for Pedro. Much success to you and hope you overcome any obstacles that come your way. Because they can all be overcome with patience and determination.
Best to you Pedro

Hello Darksniper,
Thanks for your comment, but I'll have to say that other members would agree with your response because once you start to take notice of how this community comes together, it's a no-brainer. You're either in here to succeed or not. It's really that simple.
The one thing that dragged me down when I was in other internet marketing systems was support. Most systems just want to send you to outdated videos and keep you waiting long enough to have an excuse not to refund your money.
WA is a godsend to me and I'm not going to let this one go by. You mention that you need to make this work, right Darksniper? well, if you have the desire to want to learn and become successful from the work you put into it, there is no reason why you couldn't make this work for you.
I too have a daughter who said to me a few weeks ago, "daddy, I wish you had a business here at home" that struck a nerve in a way that it put me into action. I translated her comment as "I miss you and want to see you when I come home from school. Why can't you work in a place that will allow you to be home more often?"
I too, have to make this work and I'm determined to make it work. It's not wishful thinking, it's not a thing that only a few special people have a knack for doing, you don't have to have a full-time job or a money to do it. There are many ways to make things work. One just needs to have the desire and determination to make it happen.
I'm sure it will happen for you too Darksniper. Wishing you the best success and hope you overcome any obstacles that try to deter you from your goals.
Be safe,
Rick

sounds like you are confused which niche to choose, the other training Online Entrepreneur is for other niches, best to choose a niche you know about or like enough to research. Reviews require you to 'review' as in know something well enought to explain it to others. You can check out the sites Kyle uses as demos to see how he presents a review

Hi Theresa,
I'm glad you're enjoying WA
We all tend to overthink a little bit, don't worry.
The easiest way to do this is...
Write down what you wanna do, and jump in with both feet!
Just like when you wanna go somewhere,
Don't worry about the red lights...
The obstacles don't even register in your thinking process
You just know you'll get there... eventually
Along the way, we all have to adjust the route
So, Try to stay focus on what you want to do
As you go, the journey becomes clearer and easier
You're a Designer, an Artist, A Painter. You're A Sculptor
Just get your fingers in the mud and enjoy yourself
This will not be your only canvas
This is not the only clump of clay you'll play with
What I'm saying is,
Stick to the Training and apply the principles as you learn
And You will create a work of art soon enough
Ask every question you can muster
And Continue asking for assistance
We're all here for each other
We got your back! :)

One idea might be to research the market to find the programs currently being aggressively promoted to the stay-at-home-mom and stay-at-home-dad niche... and start by sharing due-diligence, honest program reviews. Actually reach out to active participants, find out what's working, what's not, etc. Also look to feature that are working. It would be an awesome niche.

Previously, I was thinking of buying my own domain and name it after my own name because in the long run, i am planning to make it like my journal and put everything there because i am pretty interested in so many things like relationships, health, making money, and the list goes on.
so yeah there's the previous plan of using my full name (it'll be roxanneabejuela.com , just in case) as my domain but i have read a lot of comments here in WA to get started with a specific name of the website pertaining to what really is your niche or the so-called "keyword" specific domain (thanks and shout out to Alan Hocking!), if you get what i mean.
Your suggestion would really mean a lot. Thank you so much!

As you are not working with WA really long I think it will not be easy to come up with a lot of helpful content yet.
You could also stay with some free siterubix websites for the moment and try out some niches and see how they work.
You can use 25 of them.

Trying to get my head around the concepts in this lesson...these are the understandings I have. Would appreciate input from one of the experts...
I am working on lesson 2 and would love to get some clarification on choosing my niche.
I know I want to help people with Affiliate Marketing, but not clear on how to narrow it down. Does it mean I would focus on one area like blogging, or social media marketing, or a variety of online marketing tools? etc.
I understand i should be creating a blog to promote WA. should this program be promoted only on "Make Money Online Niche" or would it be appropriate on sites for eg in Health & Fitness as well.
Also know my target audience would be persons in retirement or approaching retirement, or persons who have high level of dissatisfaction with their current jobs and lifestyle.
I put the demographic in the keyword research tool, but not sure how to use that info
Thanks for your input anyone

Jeannah,
Your niche can be anything you want it to be and you can still promote WA. You can let people know how you got started with your online business and explain that it was WA where you learned how to build your own online business.
Don't focus on only one marketing tools, You should use all those tools in conjunction with each other. Use every market tool available to you because all of them will help you build traffic along with having great content.
Are you asking how to use keywords?
"I put the demographic in the keyword research tool, but not sure how to use that info"
Can you expand a little on what you are asking in that sentence?

My first website is intended to help newcomers to an online business by coming through WA. I write content about things that have been problem issues to me or other marketers so they will be able to avoid those pitfalls.
Therefore, I believe that everyone is my target market just as Kyle's article (Target Audiences for Wealthy Affiliate). But, he indicates we should go in a specific direction.
I guess that is where I may need help because I don't understand why we can't target to all audiences?

You can target all people, but the "theme" of your website (helping people start an online business) has to be more specific.
As you build out your website, you are going to be able to promote all sorts of things and you are also going to be able to promote and MANY topics that you will be able to cover on your website.
I think how you have narrowed down your niche is just fine!

You are heading in the right direction with your ideas. When deciding on a niche and trying to narrow down to a more specific niche, I recommend you ask yourself the following question:

My site I have created here in WA is about online marketing in general and it is focused on promoting solely Wealthy Affiliate.
I would like to build a website for the people who are looking for a real online opportunity and want to make money.
WA is my primary choice. Online marketing niche is a very broad niche. I think I will use some niche and demographics advice from this lesson to narrow a bit my site and to focus on targeted audience.
I am still building the site and going through the training, so there is still a lot to do.

I would like to focus on the Residual Income Seekers, but then I think of the Disabled Individuals. I am familiar with Residual Income Seekers because I can relate. But at the same time I can relate with Disabled Individuals. I am not disabled myself, but my previous job was helping the permanently disabled obtain their Social Security Benefits. Does this mean I should name my site accordingly or can I continue with a generic domain to keep a diverse outlook?

I think you can include the disabled section in the main niche. In the end, many disabled are residual income seekers too.

In the video, I saw Kyle's emails to be close to 300 on the upper right hand corner. Hard to imagine the amount of workload that's on the shoulder of this man. I feel bad to be asking him questions after questions because I know everyone is doing that. But at the same time, I really need his help as well as all the other mentors. Maybe I'll find someone else to bother to lessen his workload. Thank you, Kyle!

Hi Rex, I'm so glad to see that you plucked up the courage to return to WA. That was a good move.
You should never be concerned about asking questions. I'll tell you why - much of what I have learnt since I've been here is not so much the training that I have done on my own but to a large degree it is the questions that others have asked. This prompted me to follow for the answers and also to do some searching.
You never know when you'll be asking a question that others are wanting the answer to as well. So in essence you are not only do yourself a favour by asking but you are potentially helping others out at the same time.
Good for you and get those questions rolling!
All the best,

Hello Bob and welcome to WA.
At the end of the lesson there is the option to go back to the previous lesson (see the attached screen shot).
Sometimes it takes a little while for people to read the notifications before they respond. One of the ways that you can navigate quite easily is to use the search bar at the top. Just type in a word related to what your query is and there'll be a list of options for you to choose from.
Another thing that you can do if you need to is use the live chat option which is still available to you. You should see it streaming on the right of the screen. There's bound to be someone there who will be able to assist you quickly and easily.

Everyone gets so excited when they first get onboard. Been there done that. Take a deep breath, slow down. Navigate the site. Pick your type of business weather it be your own niche or the affiliate program. The greatest thing about the training is you have a choice of reading the training or watching the videos or both. Kyle does a great job of taking you through the step by step lesson. There are many programs out there that fall way short on training, and that's where we get so frustrated and leave. Lets not forget the up sells that you have to have, thousands of dollars later.

I agree with your point of view. We all get excited at the thought of new opportunities to succeed and to achieve goals. The discipline is required down the road and we have to remember all the goals we set and the promises we made, long after the mood we were in then is gone. I speak from experience.
Well yes it is exciting..more i think do to the simplicity and the step by step support material on the site...

So I created my Wealthy Affiliate Review and it is telling me that my content is not unique. I did not copy anything and spent all day writing it so I don't get it. Is it because I'm doing the review on wealthy affiliate. The only thing that would not be unique is the fact that I'm speaking of them and talking about there services. So not too sure what to do here.

the important boxes are 1. home title, 2. home description and 3. scroll down and 'enable' keywords, which is in the training
after that there is an option under home description to do home keywords which Kyle doesn't really bother with as far as I remember, it could be any keywords, if you bother
as for your post keywords, do you know where to put them? title and first paragraph, don't worry about it so much after that

Hi! I just have one small question:
I was entering some keywords on Jaaxy and then Googling them. Even though Jaaxy shows low competition for the specific keyword, but when enter it in Google, it finds 10s or even 100s of millions of results, which looks kind of discouraging.
Would Jaaxy be the tool to trust? I'm just wondering if I have chances of making my post anywhere on the first page (or first 2-3 pages) on Google. Because according to Jaaxy, the keyword that I targeted has QSR < 100, while Google gives me 10s of millions of results for that keyword search.

Alright, so basically we should do what we've learned in the past lessons. First we need to build trust on our website. To do so we need to get as many comments and shares on our website as possible. It's also recommended to go over SEO trainings made by Jay (check live video classes to find replays).
That's what I could find.
Feeling relieved now...

From my understanding, when you research a keyword in Jaaxy the 'competiton' means the number of web pages that have that exact keyword in the TITLE. when you search Google, the results show every instance that the string of words appears on the WWW, and even if they appear on a page more than once, every occurrence is counted.
By the way, in one of the training sessions I did with Jay, he showed us that when a huge number of results is returned in Google searches, it's not really what it appears to be. if you check deep enough into the pages, you would realize that there are really not that many results. Just to be sure I just seached in Google for 'women's baskeball shoes' and the results showed 4,100,000. However, there are actually only 17 pages with 10 results each, totaling 170.
Hopes this reduces your doubts about keyword searches.

Hi Everyone,
I have already completed the first level of training and am in the process of writing a review for WA within the Bootcamp. I found WA a week ago and am already hooked! I have had a week off work as an HR Advisor and final feel I have found something that will allow me the kind of lifestyle I have always dreamed of!
Basically - I don want to go back to work, but as i am not yet making money, alas I will have to - for now!
Can anyone share with me their experiences and how quickly they managed, and how much time they needed to spend around a full time job getting it off the ground and able to quit their full time job?
Thanks in advance

You can certainly accomplish any level of success online
that you are willing to work for!
Everybody earns money at a different rate, so it really depends on the person. I have actually created a discussion on this that will put things into perspective for you here:
https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/kyle/blog/if-i-work-at-this-8-hours-per-day
Have a read of that, I know it will give you a lot of insight into this exact topic. ;)
The first month is typically your foundation building stage. In order to build a website that earns you consistent revenue, you need this foundation. After this, you are going to start seeing traffic and as you build this out, there are many different ways in which you can generate revenue.
Personally it took me into my 3rd month of busting my butt to make my first dollar online, by month 6 though I was making consistent income and by the year mark, I was almost full time.
But guess what would have happened if I quit during those first two "trying" months. I would not be where I am at today. Just wanted to put things into perspective for you.
I am in this journey with you, so is the community here at WA. If you want to jump in, work hard, take action, and persist. Amazing things can and will happen!

Sorry I am very new and I really really want to do this and I know I can, I just need a little help.
Thanks in advance :)

AAAhhhhh I need help!!!! Im trying not to go insane, with my little one saying Mama every second of the minute. Okay, now how can I put in short term of un experienced mothers looking for extra income, or per say anybody who would love to earn extra income from home as my direction. Please help Im really new at all of this, and any kind of an idea will help to get me started, been stuck on this for 2 days. :(

I am brand new also and my target is the same :) Stay at home single moms looking to work from home. I would target the moms in one site, then open up other sites to target other audiences. At least I *think* that is the idea....

how about "make a little extra momma money from home" or "home based money maker for moms"
Just really quick thoughts. I would say don't think too hard on it. Start with something, do some keyword google searches to help expand it. As you go along the light bulb will light, I promise!

Hi Christina,
This sounds like a direction of something that you are interested in and a great niche, Just keep following the lessons and the tasks. You can go back to them anytime they are always available to you even when you have completed them. You can also check out the Live Video Classes to find information on leading you in the right direction as well. Maybe you could also just say moms earn extra income with your own online business.
We are all here to help one another be successful and are always happy to help one another. You can always go back to any of your lessons for help as well. Keep asking questions and do not give up keep working at it and following your lessons and tasks and you will have your website up and running and looking great. Your website is going to evolve as you go throw the lessons and the tasks. If you follow along with the lessons and do the tasks in each lesson your site is going to be just what you want it to be and don't forget if you need someone to look at your site to help give you some feedback and maybe some tips and tricks you only have to ask.
Best of luck!

Hi Christina,
I have a site in that same niche too. If I can be of any assistance, please do get in touch.
I liked @zappades suggestion of Home income making moms. Wish I'd have thought of that one myself :-). If you'd like some ideas for posts, etc, feel free to go to mine at https://work-from-home-moms.com. It's still in its infancy, but it's getting there!
Like I say, I'm always happy to help where I can.

So I've refined the target market to:
Single Moms, whose children have grown and left the nest, she's divorced, husband left her for a younger woman and since she stayed home to raise the children, she has no retirement fund. She needs help. WA.to the rescue. So I'm searching for a name of the business to target this market. will do a keyword search. Thanks

lol you may have dialled down that niche VERY tightly! Mom's with empty nests and empty retirement funds would have lots of categories that you could include eg divorcees, divorcees who were left for a younger woman, and empty nesters who just want more money to supplement their retirement
maybe start with a free site and when you get writing your posts and doing up your menu you'll see how much you can write in a particular direction

Back again, after 13 months hiatus. But all along I've been learning! It's like deciding to join WA is the equivalent of cracking open the door to this game. It wants to open up all the way, and here I am to see how to take things a step further and hopefully monetize what I've been learning about life, business and online opportunity. Thanks for being here guys - I think I've got a great niche this time...will share soon!

Ok. So I am doing this boot camp, but also doing the other "get started here" program for my own website/niche. That website is targeting home schooling moms. I am looking for help in choosing a target audience for my WA website. I feel like stay at home moms is already too saturated, but maybe not? Or should I specify home school moms again? (we always are looking for ways to make money from home). Or should I pick from the above list? Maybe just stick to something like middle class families who are all struggling nowadays.... I can't decide...

Hello, I will be upgrading at a Premium business owner. As the first month is $19. I want to use my 30 days to learn everything I can prior to learning all the Premium. With that being said. I want to focus on looking for high traffic items that bring in higher commission with fewer traffic. I know it will cost money, I don't have a problem paying more for solid clicks. I just need help narrowing down the business.

Hey everyone.
My mind is also kind of Jammed when it comes to choosing the brand for my self.
But I am more into:
● Fashion and Clothing(Like Vans , Adidas and more clothing)
● Teaching people how to Make money for themselves without depending on any boss ( which is here at WA by referring them)
●Online Business Success
●Travelling without stressing about money . (While they will learn how to make it here)
●Becoming your own Boss without Having to sacricice your mornings for 9/5 work.
So I really don't know which one to start with. So can anybody please cleanse my mind with a piece of advice?

Hi, it sounds like fashion might be your thing, but you should base your direction according to your most passionate interest since you'll need to write a lot about it. If you go with fashion you'd be better with the Entrepreneur Certification course, if you choose helping people make money then this one is your best bet. Keep in mind that any niche site can also promote WA, the right way is taught later. Best wishes!
So i've picked some Target Audiences that interest me in order which are:
1. Real Estate Investors
2. New Career Seekers
3. People Seeking any type of Employment
4. Criminal Employment
5. Online Survey Takers
Real Estate Investors had recently caught my attention prior to joining Wealthy Affiliates here. So.. Heres what i came up with
1. Target Audience - Real Estate Investors
2. Brand - Real Deal Real Estate
I know thats kind of copying a little bit but whats your opinion?

So, I worked on the first ten lessons just getting started, and decided to get right into Affiliate Bootcamp lessons.
I'm not sure what to choose for my Brand Direction.
I wanted to market WA, however i'd like to be involved in affiliate marketing with the companies that allow you to do that and make money, also. I'm just getting started, and I "can't connect the dots" just yet to be able to answer their questions when you go to join their affiliate program.
Am I just getting ahead of myself here for right now, this early in the process?
I certainly don't want to skip any steps. Just trying to find out how to start earning while I am still training.
If I'm trying too much too soon, someone please tell me and give me some advice.
Thanks,
Cecil

I think starting with selling at this stage is not easy. I recommend getting your website some traffic first and some quality content.
The WA affiliate program you can join already and write your first review but other programs like Amazon or JC I would wait for some months.

I kinda figured it'd be too soon for that at this time.
I'm not too spiffy on the computer business yet, but some of the training thus far has given me some good ideas.
So, I'll just keep up the training and I'm thinking as soon as I upgrade to premium, that would open up more ideas as well.
In the meantime, Thanks very much for the help.

In addition, you should be ready if you start being an affiliate with Amazon and others because I think they stringent with their terms and conditions.

My thought for a direction is helping people generate income that want to live in an RV and travel the continent. I've seen many vague articles one starting your own business but never fleshed out. With the RV industry growing every year, and many living on the road, this seems like a good niche. Does this seem reasonable?

there's certainly a huge audience for RVs globally, check to see what others are doing in this niche and where you think your audience is, also look into affiliate programs for it, google rv affiliate programs see what comes up, then there's all sort of accessories
you are currently in bootcamp though so hop over to the entrepreneur course for this niche, and remember to use the free sites to start off the training while you consider your niche Getting Rolling!

I really need help setting my direction because I have changed niches so many times in the last 4 months trying to see what I can do well and what makes money. Well I haven't done either for anything I have done so far. I haven't even been able to finish any of the 7 websites I've started because Wordpress is just so darn hard! I like the internet marketing niche, but feel so put off by it right now because I have fallen into so many scams. But something that I really like is technology: having the latest gadgets, the incredible creativity that goes into building software and apps. I love the company Apple for its philosophy of innovation and freedom and creativity. And basically what I want to do is to create or find things that help make people's lives easier. This can be technology or something that I found on amazon the other day that is an alarm clock in a rug that won't turn off until you get up from bed. Those are the kind of products that I love to find and would love to share with people to make their lives easier. So is that a direction? Finding and creating products to make people's lives easier?
Zappades
Premium
Actually, I think every new product should somehow make peoples life easier.
Our websites as well should be in the end something helping people find a solution for problems that make their life hard.
I am afraid if you really tried 7 different niches in six months you will not be able to see any success.
I'm on my third now during a year but now I want to stick to it for at least 12 months.
I think I already see better results after three months than with the first one.
Of course, the choice of a good niche is very important.
I think the new niche you chose can be a success if you stick with it. You can do that if you are passionate about it and keep working even you don't see any money results right away.

The best way to find Your actual niche is to find your Target Audience. Because this way you will aim your content to the group of people you wish to give value to. Value is a powerful key factor in making success in life overall.
This can also be seen as the "Golden Circle effect". - What - How - Why.
The Target Audience training can be found here: Target Audiences for Wealthy Affiliate And was originally posted in Phase 1 / Lesson 3.
Let me know if you have trouble to grasp the concept (because I sure did!)
Lastly, good luck with your endeavours,
Robin

have you thought of doing youtube reviews on the products that excite you?
your reason for not doing the internet marketing niche didn't add up for me - you've fallen into so many scams, but you are not in a scam now and you've got great past experience so sounds like you have research done already in this but it doesn't actually excite you? Best to go with what you love. Btw @RICH failed in a bunch of niches starting off but was making $100k a month a few years later, so it's not about failing to find a perfect niche in the beginning...give yourself time to go through the training
keep asking questions on wordpress, it will click and seem easy at some point

One thing that you will want to avoid is the preloading screen on every page, that can adversely impact the rankings on your website.

Hey everyone, I have an issue regarding the All in One SEO plugin... Maybe I'm missing something, but I'm positive I installed it and I'm not seeing it under the dashboard button. I also went and searched for it in my plugins page and it's not showing up anywhere at all.
I tried to re-download it by searching for the plugin in the search bar, but it takes me to a page that explains only premium members can add new plugins.
How can I resolve this?

The All In One SEO plugins should already be installed by default to all the websites here at WA.
Just for clarification, In your WordPress editor, navigate to Plugins then Installed Plugins.
If you don't see it listed there then, as a starter member, you would have to delete the site and create a new one.
To delete the site, go to the SiteRubix SiteManager, click the details button then scroll all the way to the bottom and you will see the delete button there.

Hi Frank, your keyword does not necessarily have to be in your title verbatim (exactly) but you must definitely use it in the meta description when you do the SEO settings.
Do a test for yourself. When you type in a search on Google and you see that the title doesn't have the same keyword that you typed in you will notice that it is somewhere in the description just below the title.
Also if you do a search and you put your keyword in " " this will usually yield the exact results.
All the best,
Brian

What sold me was my drive. Not everybody thinks this way.
Make sense?

I say don't overcomplicate things for yourself in the beginning or get hung up on a website domain name. Just choose anything that you believe describes what you'll be talking about and put it on there. Or you could put 'your name...' and whatever you'll be talking about. For example: 'Nick-makesmoneyonline.com' etc.
You won't be just making one website or business in your entire affiliate/internet marketing career. The quicker you get out there and start seeing how things are done the more motivated you'll be to keep going.

I would avoid using "-" in your domain name, but yes, great advice here.
When you choose a domain, you are going to want to choose something that is "brandable" versus something that has keywords within it. The reason this is the case is because as you build out your website, you can target as many keywords as you like within the content (that is how you will rank).
I have created a discussion here outlining the process and what to look for when choosing a domain name: How Do I Choose a Good Domain Name? This should help you out here and if you ever want to run any domains by me, simply let me know and I will give you some feedback.
PS. You can host up to 25 of your own domains here within the Premium membership on our state of the art hosting platform. :)

I want my niche to be living life positively , lots of quotes and speakers (may even be able to promote some speakers/authors products later) i want my website to attract the attention of those whose life isnt working out the way they planned, this will allow me to campaign on various platform etc ie unemployed, new mums not wanting to go back to work people looking for "something" i was thinking of my brand being "THRIVE"
am i heading in the right direction here? or am i still too broad? can anyone help?

I think you are going in the right direction but its still a little too broad. You said "living life positively" and "isn't working out the way they planned". How isnt it working out the way they planned? In what? Do they need to get out of debt? Do they hate their job?
And if it's going to be specifically about 'making money online' then THRIVE is too broad because the term literally means abundance in everything. Somebody thriving is enjoying abundance in ALL life areas. Maybe something like 'NewMomsMakeMoney'? That's more niche specific and geared toward promoting WA. You could literally just slap a WA banner on the first page and show new moms how to make money from home.
And if you want to expand in the future to go more broad you could always do that. New Moms need diapers, baby bottles, baby formula etc. With their newfound online incomes they could now purchase these products/services from your new links promoting affiliate products all mom-related.

I'm thinking of promoting a book I wrote on line, published through Author House, which I believe are just a bunch of money hungry people who would publish gibberish to make a buck. Buck that's besides the point. the point is could I promote my book through my own web sight and then sell it on line. Just a thought I had. Of course I had it copy written before I went to them. Maybe I could get someone thoughts on this Idea.

Yes you can definitely promote your book along with many other things through your website.

There are many great niche ideas for promoting WA. You can run with a more common niche idea that is related to 'make money online' but there are many ways to narrow this down and many unique niche ideas that are perfect for promoting WA.
This article will give you some cool ideas: Target Audiences for Wealthy Affiliate Yep, you want to choose a specific name for your website. In terms of choosing your site name/ domain name, I recommend going with something 'brandable'. Something that makes sense to your audience so they know what your site is about, and something that is memorable.
Hope this helps!

Hi, I personally would go somewhat generic on the name, as long as it is brandable and memorable; I like to think short and catchy like Apple.com, which has nothing to do with computers. The reason is, there are many possible target audiences in the "make money" niche, such as young college students, stay at home parents, retirees, etc. Although you'd want to start narrow, there's no reason not to tackle them all as your authority site grows. Best wishes!

I say forget about the idea of it being flawless and just go for something you like and break it down to it being niche specific. You might have to do a little brainstorming and choose several...narrowing it down to the one you like most with what you feel will give the best results.
And don't get so hung up on the website name. Honestly it could just be your name and whatever you'll talk about in the title. People want good content. If your content gives them an answer to their problem they couldn't care less about your website name. Just make sure it gives a clear description of what you're talking about though.

Well, if you're "branding", what do you think will be memorable?
I chose my domain name by thinking of my website's purpose or overall result.
Since you're helping the public, what does your customer want to have. They want to "have" something which is why they read your blog or came to your site.
I think it's to be some kind of brand recognition. You can start with a symbol and then, name it.
These are my only ideas, so far. My friend wrote a book on Branding, but I haven't read it, yet.

Hey, I picked Van life Vegan as a niche. I am a vegan and I'm just starting out living in a vehicle. My target audience is health conscious explorers that enjoy minimalistic living. I'm questioning what to focus on in my jaxy searches. I could talk about so many things within the realm of living in a van or veganism, but im having trouble putting them together to solve a problem

Hi, interesting niche; you might want to focus on one or the other at first, just to narrow it down, with the vision of expanding your coverage later on. I would let the keywords guide you as to what people are searching for in these areas. Best wishes!

Hello everyone, I am new to WA and have no experience with online marketing (or any marketing for that matter). I have several ideas of direction/brand for possible websites for promoting WA, but I am wondering if it is advisable to try to start more than one at a time or if I should only start with one website and then try to expand later as that one gets going?

Focus on just ONE website and create success with that before diversifying and creating multiple niche websites.
It only takes ONE website in one niche to be very successful online. I usually find that folks that try to do too much at once (focus on several niche websites) end up in a state of mediocrity because it can be overwhelming and you don't really ever become the expert in just one niche.
It is the experts (specialists) that create long term, successful businesses in any niche.

Hello, lovely WA friends,
Since English is not my mother language, I am kind of stuck at this stage of progress.
Am thinking, to start making money soonest, perhaps I can start making money while I am still struggling building my website by creating a landing page. Can anybody help me with your opinion?

First off, your English is quite good! You are going to be just fine and you only get better at something (like learning a language) one way, by practicing.
Also, if you understand the training you will be just fine. You can create your websites here at WA in any language that you want and market to any audience. :)
You are going to be just fine Ivonne! If you need a hand with anything going forward, let me know and I will give you a hand.

I have a question about the "Your Initial Framework Of Content" part of this training. I was wondering why we aren't recommended to use the "Auto Terms of Service and Privacy Policy" WordPress plugin that does this for you. Is it just because starter members cannot install WordPress plugins, or is there a good reason not to use this plugin that I am unaware of? I am planning on using this after I upgrade, unless there is some reason not to. Thank you all!

Ideally, you want to use as few plugins as possible since they can seriously bog down your site (make it run/load slower). So it's always good practice to find other solutions to simple stuff like this where possible.

These videos are absolutely wonderful! And, as someone who has some knowledge of digital marketing, I know the power of some of the tools being shown off here. With the right knowledge and a lot of hard work you can really turn this into something. With every passing video, I believe a little more...
I would like to ask though, the countdown for Vegas, does it count every time someone signs up for premium? Like if for some reason everyone just signed up for the $19 and then quit after the first month, would that count? Just trying to understand fully, because I really want to go on that trip!

Yes, so long as a free member signs up to become a premium member for at least one month, that counts!

So I love Gardening and using Essential Oil's. Those are the 2 that I have chosen to start with....Weather is another one but I am going hang back on that one for a little bit. The ideas for the others are easier. I am thinking I may need to change my site name....not the address as it is a thing. See I have 2 sites already built for both of these....but I want to make the 2 here kinda like sister sites. Where links from the other site points to these for an expansion on the information provided. Just about all of my current sites start with honeybee...it's the meaning of Melissa in Greek. So I am just trying to see if this is a good idea....

The essential oils website can be quite profitable because it is still a fairly young and desired niche. But you should be in the Certification Course for these niches and not Affiliate Bootcamp which is solely for the promotion of WA. Bootcamp or Certification Courses Which to Choose First

Hi, everyone!
My chosen niche is making money online. Someone just told me that there is a lot of competition in promotion of WA. Is there any suggestion on how can I deal with it? Should I focus on the way I of marketing? If promoting WA alone is not a good idea, what other products from "making money online" niche would you recommend promoting?
Your help is strongly appreciated.
P.S. Please, don't think that I'm in any sort of rush. I just want to get some information in advance, so I can start building my campaign strategy. As they say, forewarned is forearmed.
Best of luck with your ventures! I'm sure we'll all succeed!

Hi, you're wise :)
In fact, you chose a very competitive niche and a strongly promoted product.
This asks for a very good website made by you.
I believe there is always a way to be better than everyone else but for sure you'll need time to learn and get an authority in the niche.
I'd suggest you break down the niche a bit. MMO is in fact very very much floated on the internet.

Thank you for another feedback! For now, I decided to start with the affiliate marketing topic. So far, I just wrote a post about its basics.
Someone suggested me about learning other ways of making money online. That will probably be my next step, so I can cover tgese topics as well.
Best of luck in your endeavors!

Hi gnag, remember their is 3.5 billion on line looking for products and services. They say with marketing it takes a person about 7 times to be exposed to something before they decided to make a decision. So, a person may come across several affiliate programs before they come to your web-site while they decided to check it out and kick the tires. It is a numbers game. As you grow in your skills, your website will take on it's own personality that complements you. People are joining you and want to make a connection that speaks to them. Something in your story and how you project yourself to your audience will click that a person will make that choice to hop aboard.
There are so many other niches, you may want to diversify with other niches. When your ready as you learn your skills, and what you can afford in your marketing cost as you put back your investment back into your business. It will start paying for itself at some point.
For example, when you go into a store, a customer has several choices to buy items but all the profits go back to the store. The store will look at the numbers and make adjustments how to market some of the products that are not moving as fast. This is what your learning. Start with one product and as your confidence grows and the numbers look good to you then your ready add another and another then make adjustments.
It all boils down how much time, energy and expenses can you afford without spreading yourself too thin and staying focus. The WA program has done most of the hard work for you since they provide the training, tools and know how. No need to reinvent the wheel.
Hope that helps a little. Best of luck.

Kyle, this maybe a damn question but when the website is ready to post it goes on the internet with thousands of other members and competitors, right? related to that, IS THERE A SATURATION POINT where all of us are there and its a lottery type of situation who is going to get most of the attention??

Optimize your site using the training here at WA. You will find that your posts rise to the top of the rankings fairly quickly.
There are very few places on the internet that teach what you are learning here. There are certainly some keywords that will be difficult to rank for but most of the low hanging fruit keywords will rank readily enough.
The exception, of course, is the MMO niche. (make money online) In this niche, the competition knows what they are doing.

Hi Anielka56, So lets think a little more outside the box. There are 3.5 billion people on the internet looking for various products and services and growing every day. We are talking about the world not a local market that your confined to. For example, in your field as a real estate agent the market can be competitive and saturated in a high demand area. Although, people are moving all the time for various reasons which makes your local market go up and down.
There is something like 1 million with WA at different levels in their journey. Some will procrastinate, some will do nothing other then a lot of thinking, some will get sidetracked and quite. Just human nature. A good example might be The Parable of the Sower in the Bible. Read Mark 4:1-20. This is what people do when given an opportunity. So how bad do you want your dream on this journey? Any journey has it's ups and downs as you go forward to succeed in your dream while you continue to persevere. This is a great community to get support and cheer you on in your journey.
