Time is ticking, what do I do?
I have 1 hour to decide if I should become Premium. In order to make money on this site it is a no brainer, but I am not sure I want to continue.
This could be a fun hobby and could open doors and I am definitely learning, however I am not in the US and therefore not sure I can afford to go Premium.
I Feel there should be more exciting ethics in getting people onto this website. Do you let people know that you get a commission when they join? If you don't, isn't that a little under handed and sneaky? I get the addiction to this, how many followers do you have? How much revenue did you get? Who is following you? Who are you following? How many people did you get to come and join in this site?
This is not a pyramid scheme but it has elements of that and I am not sure if I want to be part of that with all its hype.
A difficult decision because I have created a site I could enjoy blogging on and I have learn't alot. I think the people here have created a great community who have a genuine care for each other. The creators were very clever in their training and goal setting parameters. Well done to you!
I am afraid of moving forward which is probably why I should continue. 'Move beyond your fear.'
If I do not go Premium and become part of the 'outcasts' I will not be able to communicate with you all, but I might still be able to Blog.
So watch this space as I move through the angst that this space creates...
Who knows, I will work on becoming successful as a Free Account and then the revenue will pay my Premium for me :)
See you on the other side ...

Hi time is of essence so allow me to be brief:
First if you pass now you don't get the $19 offer again. 2nd no contract so quit when you notify them - so take at least $20 first month and 2nd regular one - I pay CAD so it came to $21.47 3rd - what is cost to you if you cant go it alone? hobby or need freedom/money
check out Eddy Salor who has blog Why Not to Join - basicly unless you want to go for several months at least don't bother.
With so many members here to keep in touch with perhaps be hard to get much help
Say hi if you decide to join
See more comments
if you get into the training you'll know whether you like it or not, this is a big platform with many members and not all on the same page, so you need to focus on what you really get with your monthly fee here - the high end hosting optimized for SEO, the training which is ongoing, and the opportunity for help at any time.
As for the faults you pick out - well I'm not sure how accurate you are on all that, I'm finding faults and weaknesses all the time but with a view to fixing them and evolving this platform going forward, as are the owners. Good luck finding the same resources anywhere else at any price
You don't have one hour btw, you were given two free sites and can keep them and return when you know what you want to do - there is actually no pressure sell here - the special offer of $19 for one month is just that, a special offer. But you can come in any time for the regular fee.
I'm so glad you replied as you gave some good points to consider about the high end hosting and especially the training - you can test if you can follow their lessons ie making my first ever website - which even as free member exceeded my expectations.... and then giving us the Keys to the house for a week so to speak - how generous! Browse and absorb Yes!
Also very valuable comment the one hour left is only for the $19 special one month discount - and if she like me needs to count every dollar that is very motivating esp when US funds costs me more!
yes, and refer two people to these great sources then your membership becomes free as they offer you 50% of what they earn on membership fees - there is nothing unethical about that at all, very generous in fact.
Affiliates marketers now need to put affiliate disclaimers on their websites, but affiliate marketing is a legit way to promote someone else and get paid for it. However, people vary and each individual is responsible for themselves and not everyone is going to be good at it either, but everyone has a contribution to make and can communicate to someone. WA is a platform of resources that holds people together, but it is not an organism that can be accused of this or that, it's a bunch of individuals...and Kyle's training has more integrity than any other courses I've seen anywhere in marketing.
Good point Shirley on being given the keys to the house...!
Thanks Mary (prefer MozMary? Please let me know!! A name is very important and when we use it correctly shows our Respect)
I didn't know about referrals - Wow this site just gets better and better. It's not unethical to me to be compensated for your work or influence - after all aren't we here to learn how to make money by being affiliates - really just representatives with an opinion to take or leave as site visitor wishes! Like or move - on their choice.
As you say we are a collective of individuals - let's not make WA liable for all our opinions.
When I learn how to blog I'll share (if it's allowed - not giving company name) 2 instances of what happened to me after my hard work in a company for whom I did sales. To me THAT was unethical, so I quit selling for them tho I was doing well And to this day I love and use their Products I bought.
Have a great day
Mary is fine, the user name was a necessity for platform use
well it's probably best to dwell on future success going forward, law of attraction and all that ;)
Thanks Mary you're absolutely correct -let go - move on - don't need to attract more of that.
Have a good evening.
Thank you for your thoughts and encouragement
