Did you create them in Sitecontent or directly in Wordpress? Where do you click visit site, in SiteManager?
I can take a look at the site sure.

Thank you for offering ,it must have been directly in wordpress,if I can't share my URL here I will email it to

Welcome to WA! Looking forward to following your journey! It's an exciting one! Being able to combine staying home with the kids and working, doing something for yourself has been a great combination for me and my family.
Sounds like you have a very interesting background that could be tied into your online business. Best of luck with everything!

Did you get the help you needed?

you are a strong woman, I think the world needs women like you. Just keep pushing and you will achieve all the things you wish for you and your family!

Hi Linda,
Sorry you are going through a rough time. How old is your site? It does take some time, in the beginning, to get going... Feel free to share or PM me your site and I will be happy to take a look and give you some pointers if I can.

How are your sites going? I took a peek at the rock climbing site thought that was a great unique niche!

Thank you for asking about the status of my website. Currently, I received only a handful of visits randomly. It does not seem to be a demand for women as much for rock climbing as I have hope. Or maybe, it's just me. Not sure. Maybe my approach is not as popular or in demand. I am looking for more ways to appeal to women for rock climbing. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thank you!!!

How old is the site? It takes time in the beginning to get traction, I think you have a great unique niche with a passion, that's exactly what you will need...
I do a case study site, it took me 8 months to start making money instead of losing... now 3 years in, the site is making good money. It takes time... Right now I would focus on providing good content for your audience, make these women aware of your site.

I started mid July. It's about 5 months. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and case study info. I shall continue to provide good contents and be consistent. Thank you again for your feedback. It is very hopeful for me. I appreciate it very much.

Do you refer to having your own content / emails viewed as spam?

Yes, I mean the case: I offer a product/content for free to get just their contact email for my mailing list. At some time I want to make use of this list and offer via a "newsletter" new products to them. Now I wonder how the user who provided his contact will experience my newsletter which is more a advertising letter because there I will place a product/service which I want them to pay for (at some time I will have to make money out of my mailing list).
I wonder what is your opinion about how the user experiences the newsletters. Maybe there are strategies to provide another user experience than what I put so simple mere.

Ok, make total sense. You have to find a balance. It's all about helping people solve a problem. Sometimes that can be solved by a product or service. Don't see this as a negative thing, it's a win win. You offer a solution, they puchase a product and you earn a commission.

What I like to do is send out a weekly newsletter, connecting with my subscribers and pointing them back to a new post on my site. When people sign up I use Aweber where they have to confirm their subscription. Most people enjoy the newsletter, on rare occasions I get somebody unsubscribing with a comment... That is totally OK.

Be helpful and include your product/service as a solution.

Hope that helps,

Yes thank you makes it clearer for me on how to approach it.

I can definitely relate to the love of traveling! Greece is a beautiful place, Athens and Crete are a couple of places I visited and really enjoyed! Best of luck!

Hi Bob,
Sounds like we have a lot in common. I still love wall hangings but I don't create them anymore... I do online marketing full time now.
Let me know if you need any help with anything,

The key is relevance... sending relevant traffic to relevant offers. There's so much info out there, that it can be hard to know where to focus. Find something that works for you and stick with that. Follow the WA training and go back to basics... it works. Feel free to ask any questions you might have,

Caring for someone with Alzheimer's, seem like sharing that experience with others could be very helpful...

Hi John. I understand what It's like for you being a sole carer for someone who has Alzheimers as I was in exactly the same position for 4 years. You do it for love. You could do with a lot of moral support. If I can help in any way just ask.

Hello,
Thank you for contacting me with your proposal Mr Lin.
Are you looking to do affiliate marketing or do you have your own products, books, and supplements?
Could you please share your profile on healthtap.com feel free to PM me with the details.

Have a great day

Hi! veronica.1,
Making a living by constantly helping the people is the fun way to live, at least, that is my belief, which I have fulfilled in life. At 73, I decided to retire so I can have a closer relationship with my family while still helping people live a long happy life through monetizing the contents of www.formefirst.com and www.sick-ask.com by educating people on how to live a long realistic happy life and providing health-related digital information, books, services, online counseling, products, etc. most through affiliate marketing under www.ebettercare.com inside WA.

For my activities in healthtap.com, I joined it in February 2014. Since, I have been created for helping people in the world more than 35.5 millions. It is free to join healthtap.com. For looking up my activities there or to have a Concierge Consultation from me, go to www.Healthtap.com/dr-Lin with RQPWJC to log in for appointments.

For faster and better understanding, welcome to call me at 734-846-2699 or email me at realinct2002@yahoo.com.

As to WA, I joined it as Premium member at the very beginning from 9/25/2017. At this time, I have moved my study to some 30% of Level 3. In general, I have a reasonable understanding about the concept and practice of affiliate marketing. As soon as finishing the course, I will review so to better implement the process of affiliate marketing with success. Technical aspect is my main woe in this pursuit. So, can we work together to achieve a faster and more success in affiliate marketing?

Again, thank you for your response with interest in mind. I am ready to work and be helped....

Hi Robin,
My suggestion is that you get as much out of the free WA version if you feel that it's delivering and that you want more, definitely sign up for the paid version. I've been a paying member for years :). The training is very good!
You will be able to link from your site to any other site that you want, yes.

Hi Pat,
Go make those dreams happen!!

Yes, consistency is definitely key when doing online marketing.

That's how we all start. Go through the course and lessons and things will start to make sense, that's also when the questions will start to pop up,

Hi Veronica
I am very new at this and trying to learn as quick as I can but it is reassuring to know that there are people ready and willing to help when we get stuck.

Hi,
The first thing I noticed is the image of the brown wood piece, I would change that to something that relates to your site, something about losing weight. Other than that I think you have a good start!
Keep up the good work!

Thanks very much for your input, Veronica. I do appreciate that very much and will definitely change the brown wood piece. Could I just be a nuisance for one more minute? How would I change it? Is it possible to please give me a few pointers? Thankyou.

That could probably be done within your theme settings. I'm not familiar with the theme you use but I would guess that's where you can upload your own image.

Many thanks. Will take a look.

How are you liking it? Norway is beautiful! Love to go skiing there :) It is very much doable!

Hi, Yes we tend to over think :) that we have to find that "special" product... Focus on something that you enjoy or a solution that's been helpful and the rest will fall into place.

Hi, is it an MLM, multi-level marketing company?

First, if you are going to do it, do it because you love the product and love the company... No different than recommending WA, people do it because they love it and find it useful. If you don't like the product, I would not do it.

Second, it's all about how you recommend and "sell" things. The thing I don't like with most MLM companies is the approach of pretty much ignoring the product and only recruiting new members for the downline. Chasing family and friends, hoping they will sign up.

You don't have to take that approach, though.
If you have a beauty site where the product fits in with what you do already, I don't see anything wrong with recommending them.

I have a post that might help you decide.

Let me know if that helps,
Vicky

ok thanks so much for your reply. I feel the same way,, I hate the approach that people go by as in joining them.. it's crazy,,, that's why I would hesitate in promoting ...

it's a tough decision...... yes,,,,I think if you present it like any other product you present it's no different to a product from another affiaite program,, just with the stigma attached...but it has to work too


thanks for your help
Rose

Let me know what you decide to do, best of luck!

Ok thanks,,, been hunting around for places to promote. I am surprised at so many places give low rates and also where I live most of the affiliate program won't give commissions outside of the Australia site even when they link to other countries. I can see why people do go to Amazon ....
ROse

Nothing wrong to partner up with these affiliates if you both have realistic expectations, them knowing that you are in the beginning of the journey.

Hello,

Yes I was very excited about the $4 lol,
I moved on from the colic calm niche. Not because I didn't like it but because I went a different direction. Sounds like you have great experience with it and can do really well. I can't remember if you have to reach a certain amount of sales before they payout, but look into that.

Yes I'm still a premium member. I have referred some members here that cover the cost of my membership now. But for the longest time I didn't work with WA as an affiliate but I still stayed a premium member because of the value it gave me.

Hej Pernilla!

Trevligt att träffas!
Befinner du dig också i USA eller någon annan del av världen?

Sag till om du behöver hjälp med något :)
Ha det bra,
Veronica

Hej Veronika!

Tack för ditt svar. Vad roligt :-)

Jag bor i Schweiz sedan länge (träffade min man på en språkkurs och landade här). Vill så gärna vara självständig och kunna välja när och var jag arbetar och på så vis kunna hälsa på familj och vänner hemma i Sverige oftare. Därför är jag glad att jag hittat en möjlighet inom Affiliate Marketing.

Ja, gärna kontaktar jag dig när jag har frågor. Jag är som sagt nybörjare i denna bransch.

Ha det så bra du me´,
Pernilla

Hi Kevin,

I gave Amazon their own section, I could have added that to affiliate programs under #1. Amazon is simply another affiliate program. I can see how that is a little confusing, might have to update the training :) it's a while since I wrote it :)

Hope that helps,
Vicky

Thank you Bonita! Yes, time truly flies when the kids are little. Mine are now both in school but I'm so glad that I've been able to work from home and be there for them... Don't have to miss a single event at school either :)

To your success,
Vicky

Well said, yes being in control of your own time that's freedom!

I did have my own domain. The low investment with a domain and host was worth it to me from the beginning. There's nothing saying you can't make money from a free domain, but if you put in your hard work you might as well do it on your own "property".

Starting out we all have the fear or question of "will this work". If it's truly something you want to do, you will find the time even if it's just 1 hour a day...

Best of luck

My professor was Swedish and her hometown was Umeo. Nice people!

Let me know if you go John, I would be happy to help you out. Skane down south is great, Stockholm... there are many fabulous places :)

Umea is a beautiful place up north!

Hi, when I started out I invested in this program, the monthly fee + domain and hosting for a site, that was it. Now you can get hosting included here at WA if you go with the premium membership...

Veronica how much does th4e domain and hosting cost per month.

I see you are a premium member so the hosting is included here your only cost would be the domain. I think it's $13.99 yearly here via WA for the domain.

You are inspiring. Well, I have to get my laptop fixed. It's giving me a lot of headache.

Hej,

Välkommen till WA!
Jag vet att dar finns en hel del affiliate program pa den svenska marknaden. Eftersom jag bor i USA nu har jag fokuserat pa den amerikanska/globala marknaden, men tror säkert att dar finns stor potential även pa svenska marknaden.
Hjälper gärna till om jag kan :)

Tack för snabb respons!

Skulle du rekommendera mig att börja med den svenska marknaden eller globala? Sitter lite fast i vilken niche jag ska köra på så vore bra om du hade något tips? =)

Vad känner du dig mest bekväm med? Vilket sprak gillar du att skriva pa? Jag hade börjat med en niche som jag har kunskap om, pa ett sprak som du känner dig bekväm med... Engelsk talande marknaden ar större men dar kommer också vara mer konkurrens...

Så sant så. Funderat på att börja med engelska för att nå den större marknaden men känner mig lite osäker på min engelska. Får prova mig fram helt enkelt, men då vet jag att den svenska marknaden inte är helt stängd :) Tack snälla för bra svar!

Inga problem, hjälper gärna till när jag kan!!

Hi Juliet, what an exciting life story. So glad you made it to WA! Let me know if there is ever anything I can help with!

Veronica

It's really a great thing!! Family first!

Did you get it all figured out?

Yes, time spent with the kids are time well spent. It has worked great for our family!

Take it one step at the time and things will fall into place.

Thank you very much! Time spent with your kids is time well spent for sure!!

Both Veronica and Vicky works :) Nice to meet you as well, how are things going here at WA?

Thank you! I see the 9 year mark is coming up in November :) so look out for a new post soon.

Appreciate the kind words!

Vicky

Hi there, That's the way to go, study, learn and implement. Take action on everything your learn and great things will happen!

That's great, take your time learn and implement!

For our family that's worked out very well! Thank you

Hello, glad you enjoyed it!! Let me know if you have any questions

It has changed a lot for sure. Back in the day you could use methods that will not work today... One thing that has been consistent though is to provide helpful information via great content for your readers.

WA's approach has always been the same though, create helpful content around a specific niche...

Can't say it's better or worse, just different. I can say though that for the better, there's so much great information about online marketing today both here at WA and other places... For the worse there's so much great information ... :) it can be hard to weed out the bad.

My suggestion is that you stick with what's being thought here, go through the program and implement what you learn... That's exactly what i did and how I see great results...

Don't chase the "magic solution" it doesn't exist stick with something and implement it.


Vicky

Hi Ethan,
Not really sure how all that works being self employed... I had all my ducks in a row :) before going to the US and wasn't doing affiliate marketing yet...
