I am so excited to announce that I received my first affiliate income payout of $46.50 from Wealthy Affiliate into my PayPal account. It is such a great personal achievement for it to happen within my first 3 months. It is further confirmation that this was a right decision for me upgrade and to go annual premium.

So when I look at how this happened the stats pages shows me

It appears that the links I either send by email or on Facebook onto Website Homepage and Default Create Account Modal are the ones that converted into sales. My main WA affiliate site alternateaffilates has had most referrals but no conversions as yet. It looks like all the channels I have are working in terms of bringing traffic. I need to work on converting them to upgrade.

The distribution of the commission comes from 3 premium upgrade specials and one recurring premium.

I am therefore spurred on to continue learning how to improve ranking, creating quality content and give my customers a compelling reason to convert.

Now I have some money to re-invest in tools to enable the business to go to the next level.

I am loving WA!
