Here (inside the dotted lines below) is Kyle's post, with SPACING (and minor edits to update it and correct minor typos).

I'm hoping it will help others who have as much trouble as I do, reading a wall of text, lol. Everything in [brackets] is information I added. Everything not in brackets is from the original post.

I got the upgrade and commissions amounts from: https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/share and New Order Page at Wealthy Affiliate, New Payment Options! Kyle published this post six years before I posted this comment. So, probably in early 2013. (One way to see when a post was published is to scroll down to the first comment. You'll see how long ago it was made.)

Note: a new "Last Update" date can be triggered by the author updating the material OR by someone leaving a comment.

I'm guessing a change to WA's platform messed up this post's original formatting and Kyle hasn't taken time to fix it yet.

Since the 6-month Premium payment option didn't exist when Kyle published this post, and he hasn't come back and added it, I'll cover it briefly before moving on to the edited version of Kyle's post.

Let's say a Starter (free) member and a Premium member each have 10 "sales" (referrals who upgrade to Premium).
Let's also say each of those referrals makes a 6-month payment ($243) in addition to their initial (first month) payment of $19.

The commissions would be...
for the Starter member:
$4 (for the $19 upgrade) + $54* (for the 6-month upgrade) per referral x 10 referrals = $544
for the Premium member:
$8 (for the $19 upgrade) + $108 (for the 6-month upgrade) per referral x 10 referrals = $1088

That's a difference of $544.

* $54 commission is a guess, based on 50% of the $108 a Premium member earns.

Now, on to Kyle's edited post. :)

I just wanted to give everyone some insight into the latest commission structure between the Starter members and the Premium members. I will also detail what this means to you in terms of an overall opportunity.

Starter Member Commissions:
Initial $19 offer, Commission = $4
[$49/mth, Commission = $11.75]
[$234/6 months, Commission = $54*]
$359/year, Commission = $87.50

[* $54 is a guess, based on 50% of the $108 a Premium member earns.]

PREMIUM Member Commissions (100% More $$):
Initial $19 offer, Commission = $8
[$49/mth, Commission = $23.50]
[$234/6 months, Commission = $108]
$359/year, Commission = $175

This is a substantial difference. If you are promoting Wealthy Affiliate and you want to MAX out with your commissions, it is integral that you are a Premium member. It is going to drastically benefit [your] revenue!

I also want to touch on the earning potential for each. Say you can sign-up 10 people to Premium in one month, here is the commission breakdown (with retention of 5 months taken into consideration).

10 sales [made by a] Starter [member] = ($4 + $11.[75] [per month] x 5 [months]) = [$62.75] per sale x 10 [sales] = [$627.50] revenue

10 sales [made by a] Premium [member] = ($8 + [$23].50 [per month] x 5 [months]) = [$125.50] per sale x 10 [sales] = [$1255.00] revenue

As you can see, if you were to make 10 sales the [revenue difference] between Starter and Premium is going to be [$627.50]!! Think it is worth upgrading to premium for [$49]/mth? These updates are active as of today.

Do we get paid off people joining as a starter member? or will they have to become PREMIUM members before we get paid

In the commission section it says:

Earn
$100+
Per Premium Signup

Can you explain how we can do that? Or is that just counting that it's recurring?

Hi everyone! I have 2 premium members...one is into their 2nd month.....and several who signed up for free memberships as far as I can tell. I only have $16.00. Is this correct?

Kyle, is the verified invitation commission of 1.00 per signup only available for premium members? I am only a starter member right now and I noticed under my commission schedule it states not available for verified invitation. I hope that makes sense.

Hi Kyle, how do I get the Plans and Pricing chart (in your Getting Started page) with my aff links into my website? Thanks!

I was discussing the possible sign up options with a potential sign up this morning and a question came up which I could not answer. Suppose a person signs up for Premium and creates (say) ten sites and after six months decides to leave WA and pays no more monthly subscriptions.
What happens to those ten sites?
Are they de-activated and if so at what time after the payment was due?
Or does the person get a time period to move them to another host?
Or .......?
Would appreciate knowing what happens please,
Regards

Hudson

Thanks for the update Kyle - great stuff

Thanks for the info Kyle

Thought the commissions had dropped there for a second until I saw that it only applied to starter members..haha. Affiliates for my new venture will be directed to WA anyway!

Hello Kyle: As a member when you say promote WA and signing up people is this done by word of mouth or online, As a new member how am i to promote WA when i am just about WA myself.

Hey Kyle if I upgrade tp premium will that be a "new" account? Or will my starter account just carry over?

Something else to think about is you only need 2 people to pay for your own WA membership less $2 so just about making it free. Pretty sweet deal if you think about it. Plus all the awesome stuff it gives you access to.

Kyle what is the difference between raw and unique clicks. Also on my stats page it says amount to be paid on march 1st, 2013 is $180.25, but it also shows that I have no sales. could you please explain that to me.

I am expecting to see a big change in March when my campaign gets rolling. Peter

Are only Wealthy Affiliate starter members and Premium members the only ones allowed to promote Wealthy Affiliate? If not, what commission are the others getting? Thanks Kyle

Really worth upgrading.. plus the commissions you get are a bonus, at least for me it is.. It's everything that you'll get from the community that's really worthy of upgrading.
