Starting Out at WA

Well, this is basically how I got to find out about WA and the experience I have had so far as a beginner.

Before Joining WA

I have always thought of online marketing as something that is exclusive for computer geeks. In fact, whenever I saw opportunities for being part of online marketing, I would immediately turn them down. My assumptions were:

  1. It is definitely too complicated for someone like me who has only basic computer knowledge.
  2. Only the 'lucky' ones get to succeed.
  3. I have no clue where to start or what to do or how to do it....
The reasons not to get involved were endless and to make it worse, there are billions of people out there making me feel insignificant.

That was before I started writing in Street Articles and got to hear about Wealthy Affiliate.

Joining Wealthy Affiliate

I got an email from Street Articles inviting me to join WA. I thought, "Well, why not just take a look and see..."

Reading through the welcome message of WA, I was amazed. Everything changed about my thinking on online marketing:
  1. I can actually get training to learn on how to do this stuff.
  2. It is not about 'luck' but work - there are strategies and particular techniques that work.
  3. WA gives you a step by step process to help you learn (without this I might have just called it quits)
The reasons to actually get involved are so many and to make it better WA helps you make your website (OMG! I have had so many ideas for a website).

My Status at WA

Well, I have so far chatted with so many people. I have learned about so many varieties of jobs that people do. I have progressed a bit slowly on the certification program (I want the lessons to sink in deeply. Did somebody say slow learner?)

People actually talk to you, not just liking your comments (Gosh! this is better than Facebook). I like talking to guys at WA, they have a sense of purpose and a feel of community. Thumbs up!

Am soon gonna be big in online stuff. Taking it one step at a time.

Absolutely inspiring post! I'm also new here and had many of the same thoughts as you before joining ... hopefully we will march toward online success together!

Great post - well done

Hi Victor great first post. First of many of your journey here at WA. I think WA is like a business Facebook for like minded people with all the added extras of the training and support. It takes me ages to put the next IM into my site and I have to repeat it to really get it too. Best wishes, and keep writing and sharing and keep up the hard work.

This is definitely a good place to learn from. I am so amazed at all the training blogs on anything and everything you want to know about. I feel like a kid in a candy store. I have never found anywhere that offers so much information and for free yay!

I am proceeding slowly also because I need to know I can actually make some money before I commit to the monthly payment of Premium. So far, it looks very promising.

You'll do great here, Good Luck Always =)

Truly an awesome place!

Hey Victor, I've found your post very interesting in my view, because you've stated some facts that are true. First, the people who want to succeed in this business need to put the necessary work in order to achieve their goals, not building their expectations on good luck.

And second, the WA is way more than a simple platform to learn things here and there, it's a great community of like-minded people who are willing to support each other every step of the way. Regards my friend!

Very true!
