The Wealthy Affiliate Review

Product Overview - What Is Wealthy Affiliate?

Wealthy Affiliate itself is a lesson on how a company and business can adapt and grow with the times, it did not start out as an affiliate marketing training platform at all.

The owners, Kyle and Carson started this organisation out as a business selling keyword lists to content marketers and creators back in 2005.

With time, they invested, grew and expanded into becoming a training platform. Perhaps a little like Nokia, who started out as a paper mill way back in 1865!. Evolution, folks, evolution!.

As a side note, this is something to keep in mind!

It is indeed a blogging training program that teaches you how to build a money making blog from the ground up using, principally speaking with affiliate marketing as the method of revenue generation.

 Using advertising and the use of google adsense is also taught within the training course.

About The Training Course

The training inside the member's area of wealthy affiliate has two distinctive courses, the online entrepreneur certification course, which is the main one, the blogger training in which we will focus on in a moment.

The other course is the Affiliate Bootcamp which concentrates more on the rather large "How To Make Money Online" niche market sector.

Members can indeed choose to take both courses if they so wish.

The Online Entrepreneur Certificate Training Course

This is the blogging training course where a wanna be blogger or apprentice blogger can learn to become a master blogger and learn everything that is required to become successful and earn a legitimate and sustainable income from their blogs.

This is the training that I undertook personally that transformed me from a part time fun hobby blogger to a more serious streamlined pro!.

And thankfully, for my ol'grey matter nothing was too taxing! no technical skills required, no even any IT skills at all. Just the ability to surf the internet and use WordPress, which is very easy to do!

In fact, if you can use a word processor you can use WordPress!

The 5 Levels Of The Online Entrepreneur Certification Training Detailed!

Let's go through the the best blogging training course and discuss what is involved with each of the five levels of what I believe to be the best blogging training course anywhere!.

Level 1 - Getting Started!

First and foremost this is the starting point of the training and this level is absolutely free for starter members (no credit card required!).

There are 28 easy peasy tasks to perform over 10 lessons. What is taught here is the absolute foundation, the solid platform of your blog and gives you that solidity from which to succeed and move forwards from.

It teaches you how to use WordPress as a content management system, understanding the process of making money online (Hint: It is not what you think it is!), the selection of a niche and indeed what a niche is.

(This part I had some difficulty in and explaining what it is in words to a friend and that is despite being quite a wordsmith and able to speak 5 languages. the simplicity of the explanation made it as clear as the day is long!).

There is absolutely nothing difficult when it comes to niche selection. In fact, the most difficult part I found when starting out was to describe what a niche is!.

Regardless of how you choose to pronounce the word, be it niche as in Knee-sh or Niche as in bitch! all a niche is in the simplest of terms is a market sector or sub sector.

As can be seen from the Wikipedia definition above and the Dictionary.com below this is all that a niche is,

I do have to admit that niche selection could have been taught in more depth and greater detail as some people do get stuck at this part.

I love helping people be sure to reach out for my helping hand if you ever get stuck at selecting a niche or even if you want to just run it past me and ask for my expert opinion.

Building and setting up your blog and getting it ready and primed for the search engines to find is also taught at this stage. This does sound quite techie and in normal circumstances would be enough to get me quaking in my non-techie boots!.

Trust me, it is way much easier than it sounds and the training by Kyle is very much "over the shoulder" where you are watching him do it slowly, steadily and very clearly. It is very easy to follow, and you can always pause and "follow along" like I did.

If you get seriously stuck, I, personally, will be there for you on the inside to guide you along just shoot me a PM!. I'll even share some niche selection techniques to help you to find a good and profitable one!.

Then moving forwards it is time to create your first content, not your actual first post as such but what I call your core content or framework of your site where you will create your introduction, your about me page and a GDPR compliant privacy policy.

The privacy policy is actually provided and can copy it directly, this page you won't set to be indexed by the search engines so you have absolutely no worries about duplicated content.

Side Note: Duplicate content is something you should never ever do, unless you want a google penalty and never rank ever!. The Privacy policy google understand is something generic by all sites and you set it to not be indexed anyway, thus double safe!

For examples of About Me and Privacy Policy Click The highlighted texts!.

Following the training, you will know exactly what makes a relevant and engaging about me post.

At this juncture, I would point out, in my opinion, and experience one minor but important thing that is missing from the core setting up of your site is the creation of a "Contact me" page.

I believe having a contact page and a means of your audience being able to reach out and contact you as being important as you establish yourself in your niche area, I also believe it to relevant and of value in terms of SEO, Search Engine Optimization purposes.

Again, shoot me a line once you are inside WA and I'll sort you out with a "how to" when it comes to setting up your contact me page (Best done on level 2, as you need to set up your site email first!.).

Finally, towards the end of this free level 1 training course you are taught to understand and comprehend keywords. These will form the basis of your SEO and pretty much everything you do moving forward in the creation of the content for your blog.

Because you deserve a sustainable income online!. The question is: WILL YOU TAKE THIS OPPORTUNITY?!?

As a point of reference, it took me 6 days of easily and chillax going through level one.

Level 2 Building Your Own Traffic Producing Website

I do hope that you appreciate the detail and effort that I am making in this wealthy affiliate review, Moving onwards and upwards and progressing with the training on level 2 where you are taught the principles of generating good quality free organic traffic. Which is, in my opinion, the best type of traffic.

Pro Tip 1: Traffic generation is not the problem, traffic is everywhere it is in absolute abundance! with over 4 billion internet users and a whole variety of sources such a social media, search engines, email lists, paid traffic sources, networking and guest posting, blog commenting, forums, and not forgetting offline sources too.

All you just have to know is where your particular crowd or audience is hanging out or socializing and go get 'em!.

It an entire myth that traffic is difficult to get, it absolutely never ever..ever has been and never ever will be!

On this level, you will also take the beginning baby steps to establish your brand, and choosing your domain name. At this juncture, I do point out that you ought to not follow Kyle's advice and recommendation and buy your domain from Wealthy Affiliate.

The very reason for that, especially and doubly...even triply so if you are hosting your site on Wealthy Affiliate's servers, which is included in the price of your membership, is to add an additional layer of security and keep your domain name (your website same) and your hosting separate.

In the unfortunate and highly unlikely event of your site getting hacked you can request the latest back up of your site, which is done automatically every 24hrs, take your site's data (the actual site!) and host it elsewhere and just "point" your domain to your new hosting!.

It is extremely unlikely that you will ever get both your domain name and your hosting hacked at the same time especially if they are from different companies.

Besides, Namecheap is as the name suggests cheaper than Wealthy Affiliate for your domain name.

Rather quickly and on to lesson three and your ready to create your very first piece of keyword rich content and get using the Jaaxy Keyword  Research Tool to get some content generation ideas related to your site that you can create content around.

Yes, in case you are wondering the keyword research tool is free and with unlimited use for premium members.

You really are fully tooled up and ready to go with no upsells at all! 

Training, hosting, keyword research tool...yep fully kitted out! even with SSL certificate (Secure socket layer) making your site fully secure with the green padlock and trustworthy for your visitors and audience. Ohh and there are live weekly webinars too!.

As you move and progress through level 2 training you will become fairly competent at creating good quality beautiful content that converts into both traffic and sales. You will also start to become adept at using WordPress.

The final lessons on the level 2 training boosting your WA rank, serves absolutely zero purpose in your quest to a better blogging experience, become a blogger or improve your skills as a blogger, learn online marketing or to earn some extra money.

There is no actual benefit of a high rank inside Wealthy Affiliate, it does not increase your website rankings, make you actual website any better or more beautiful, or better quality of traffic. It is just a number!.

Pro Tip 2: Yep I'm a penny pincher, a tight ass, a typical Scotsman...Level 1 Is Free so try level 1 first and foremost to find out if it is for you, if it is what you are looking for before moving on to become a Premium member.

You can try out the remainder of the Training course for US$19 for the first month only to extend your knowledge and consider it as a 60% discount on the regular US$49/monthly fee and cheaply continue your training allowing you 30 additional days on top of the free level one training

(start your US$19 60% discount when you are ready to start the level 2 of the training course).

Because you know that you can build an awesome blog and fire your boss!. The question is: Will you take action and do it or be stuck on the 9-5 treadmill forever?!?

As a point of reference, it may take you as long as 2 weeks to complete level 2 as it involves the creation of content, which for some may be an arduous task. Again there is nothing difficult and you are not aiming to be the next Shakespeare or write the Magna Carta.

The Technical or "computery" tasks are very straight forward and easy to perform on your own or with little guidance.

Remember I am there for you! and to help you.

Level 3 Making Money

This level of the content marketing training gets down to the nitty gritty of earning some coin online. Perhaps and most probably the reason why you are interested in becoming a blogger or content marketer.

In reality and absolute actuality, any website with traffic can be monetized and earn money.

There are a whole variety of methods and techniques to earning money from your blog or website.

Namely, and not limited to:

• Selling Ad space.
• Google adsense or other similar programs.
• Affiliate Marketing.
• Drop shipping.
• Owning your own Product, Physical or Digital and selling online.
• Amazon FBA
• Selling on eBay.
• Holding your own seminars or Webinars.
• The selling of your own services.
• Freelancing on Upwork or similar sites such as freelancer.
• Writing your own ebook and selling them on Amazon.
• Creation of Premium membership site or fee paying private forum
• Accept donations.
• You can even flip and sell your website for a healthy profit.

In short, there is something for everyone from all walks of life, tastes, likes and dislikes.

The method focused on with Wealthy Affiliate is, as the name suggests Affiliate marketing by means of creating quality content that ranks in search engines.

This, just for the record is my favourite method of monetization and, I am, at the moment creating my own physical products for one of my niche sites and recruiting quality affiliate marketers to work with.

Key aspects of this level are learning how to find appropriate and relevant affiliate programs for your niche site and most importantly how to properly structure product reviews and leverage them in your quest to earning a sustainable income online.

Also touched on is the use of google adsense as a means of earning money from your niche site, which is also a viable and legitimate way of making money with your blog.

Pro Tip 3: Don't go into the creation of your product reviews all gung ho and salesy - you will only have visitors hitting the back button just as quickly as they found your site.

It might sound or seem very counter intuitive but really don't even try to sell the product to your audience of readers, do be highly informative, helpful and educate your readers in regards to the product that you are reviewing.

Show them how the product helps and benefits them or solves their particular problem or even makes their life much better or more convenient and you will convert them into sales much better. More money from the same amount of traffic!. 

Let's be clear, there is a reason as why I convert on my niche sites, of which I have a few, at about 35% to 50% better than most so called 'guru's'.

Focus on helping people!.

Like Level 2, this level ought to take no longer than 2 weeks for you to go through allowing for some off time, free time. family time or just some good old fashioned you time!. There is no need to rush through the training.

It is very important that you fully comprehend the process of building, monetising and creating a good quality website that you are fully and absolutely proud of.

Level 4 Mastering Social Engagement

This part of your training you are going to learn the whole aspect of using social media correctly and effectively. There is absolutely no need to devalue both yourself and your brand by spamming senselessly on social media.

The social networks and the traffic and engagement from your activities and time invested there can have a positive effect on your Search Engine Optimization (SEO) efforts. You would actually be very surprised by which social site is the most effective for that.

Clue: It is not Facebook, Twitter or Pinterest!.

Speaking of Pinterest, that is actually, for me, my best source of social traffic!. This goes along with exactly what I told you earlier, in the little golden nugget...find where your audience is, where they hang out and go get'em!. My crowd for my niche site just so happened to be on Pinterest!.

Personally one of my favourite techniques as far as Social Media and Engagement goes stretches a little bit further than just social networks, stretches and expands into niche relevant forums, Q&A sites like Yahoo Answers and Quora. This sadly is not mentioned or taught as part of the content marketing training.

Luckily, for you, I am sharing this with your right now!.

It is pretty easy. just spend some time every day, half an hour, maybe an hour participating in and joining conversations on forums and questions sites giving appropriate answers where possible.

Pareto Analysis comes in handy here, only about 20% of the time, 1 out of every 5 will I actually place a link that helps to answer the question. That link could be to a useful resource that is on my own site (or one of my own sites) or to a highly informative site that is not mine.

The key is to be social, helpful and not spam either my own link or someone else's site.

I highly suggest that for the first week or two no links at all to help you gain trust and authenticity within the forums and answer sites. Also, on your profile, do have a lovely link to your site, perhaps mention in a very normal (non spammy!) in the bio where possible.

This is called conversational marketing. You can apply it to facebook groups too, just join in the conversation, add your relevant info and do be careful of over placing your link, just mention it in an educated, classy and normal way.

Again, just be helpful!. Don't just join in a conversation and see an opportunity to whack in your link in hope of someone clicking it and finding your site....Spoiler alert...They won't!.

But if you do come across as genuine, helpful and authentic they will!. Even if you don't actually leave a link to your site in particular conversation you might just peak at the reader's curiosity and they click on over to your profile and...you got it!...find their way to your site. Very all counter intuitive!

Like levels 2 and 3, level 4 ought to take no more than 2 weeks as a conservative estimate to complete. Everyone leads different lives, has different work-life-family-kids balance and arrangements to keep up with, but 2 weeks for pretty much everyone is a very good estimate, all things considered.

Level 5 The Business Of Content!

As a budding blogger or apprentice content marketer, the creation of high quality engaging content is the nuts and bolts of your business. 

You will learn exactly how to create quality content that converts and how to create high quality content effectively, efficiently and above all consistently.

The module or unit also teaches you how to install google analytics and webmaster tools (now called Google Search Console) and the use of an XML sitemap.

This all sounds a lot more technical than it actually is. the training is so clearly explained and simple to follow I am confident my 92 year old technophobic grandmother could do it!.

For the record, these two tools, google analytics and webmaster tools (AKA Google Search Console) are free and absolutely essential for your success and tracking your sites progress.

You will also be working with and shown how to obtain ranking from the other two major search engines which are Yahoo and Bing.

Key aspects of this training also include elements of outsourcing key tasks related to your online business when the time comes and where to find quality freelancers.

As a word of personal advice, what your new business earn for you don't seek to buy 'stuff' whatever that may be for you.

Do seek to reinvest every dime you make until such a point that you are earning a sustainable and consistent income from your business so that you can have a very nice income that only requires your attention and supervision, perhaps only an hour or two per day and a full-time income at that!.

For me personally, this took me 2 years of reinvesting absolutely everything from my first site until it was profiting rather handsomely and earning a relatively passive income.

I still have that site and only taking about 1-2 hours of my time daily to proofread and beautify as well as SEO articles.

That site took 2 years, simply due to being an obscure niche and not really social media friendly!. If you are curious as to the niche, shoot a comment in the comments box below and just ask!.

At the end of this level 5 training, you will have earned your stripes and you really will be well on your way to succeeding online as a blogger or content marketer. The approximate time to complete and absorb the training and teachings is approximately 2 months.

That is how long it took me.

Obviously, I cannot say how much you can earn with Wealthy Affiliate as there are far too many variables like traffic, niche, SEO ability (which always improves), writing style and ability (Personally, I started out quite a terrible writer!), commisions, competition from other sites, to consider.

But what I can tell you is that you will make money if you stick at it and fully follow and apply the training.

Just like anything else it takes time to build a sustainable business online these days really it is no different to the offline world of brick and mortar businesses. With that in mind, I started off straight away after my free level one trial by going yearly and forcing myself to stick at it and get my money's worth and try it for a full year!.

....I ended up making several times the US$495 yearly fee and rather surprisingly a few triple figure days very early on. I do hope that you can beat my own achievements, in fact, I challenge you to!.

Because YOU CAN build a successful site. But… WILL YOU GO THE EXTRA MILE TO CHANGE YOUR LIFE FOR EVER?!?

The Affiliate Bootcamp Training Course

The Affiliate Bootcamp training course is indeed Wealthy Affiliates flagship training program based around helping you to earn money online in the Make Money Online niche market. This course is more in depth than the Online Entrepreneur Certification course.

In my opinion and experience, regardless of your starting point before joining, be you a successful blogger, IT whizz Kid, a complete beginner or somewhere in between, you should still take and go through the Online Entrepreneur Certification Training first to learn the fundamentals of blogging and what it takes for you to succeed as blogger in any given niche of your choice and liking!

The Bootcamp training has 7 Phases and 70 lessons in total. It walks you through the entire process of the creation and establishment of your business.

The 7 phases are Getting Your Business Rolling, Content, Keywords And Conversions, Giving Your Site Social Value, Get Visual Get Aesthetic And Get A Brand Through Media, Knowing Your Audience and Capitulating Your Referrals. Bing, Yahoo And The Power Of PPC, and How To Scale Successful PPC Campaigns.

it is a fair amount of training to go through but follow it to the letter and you will have build yourself a successful site and brand that is ready for success year after year.

Let's now go through what is covered in all each of the 7 levels in greater detail.

Level 1 Getting Your Business Rolling

On this level, you are taught how to create a successful "authority" style website using WordPress as the content management system, setting and achievement of extraordinary goals as an affiliate marketer.

Yes, with persistence and effort you could very well achieve those goals!. Creation of massively successful affiliate marketing campaigns are covered also.

Like level 1 of the Online Entrepreneur Certificate Course, the setting up and the whole framework of your site is taught at this level from domain name selection to the installation of WordPress (done in only 3 clicks!) keyword research and the creation of top quality reviews that convert into sales.

Because you know that you make a killing when you apply the method taught correctly!. The Question is: Will you make the effort and take the money or will you be forever dreaming of success?!?

Level 2 Content Keywords And Conversions

In Level 2 of Wealthy Affiliate Affiliate Bootcamp Training, your main focus and goal is on content and the actual creation of quality content for your site and how to make your content readable and presentable.

The leveraging of Keywords (don't worry you will learn exactly what this is) to create top quality content that ranks and converts into sales.

Content is the nuts, bolts and rock solid foundation from which your site is built. It is the absolute bedrock of your blog. And don't worry if you are not a great writer to begin with. Gosh, I was terrible! - had not written in years (read over a decade and a half!) other than rants of social media!.

Keep in mind you are not out to win the Pulitzer prize or any other journalistic award. Just the creation of quality readable content that is helpful for your readers.

Pro Tip 4: Your goal is simply to create informative and helpful content that helps your readers. You like helping people? - great! you are going to do very well at this!.

Level 3 Giving Your Site Social Value.

When you have got a website or blog that has real quality content, you do need to make absolutely sure that your audience, your crowd of website visitors can easily share that content.

In this part of the training you will be discussing and using a whole variety of the social media aspects that you could incorporate into your website to make it much more social, engaging, and that you will easily use to get a greater reach and more traffic, which of course increases your brand recognition and sales.

You will be taught how to use social plugins for your site, which social sites to use, and which ones are best avoided!, the most effective techniques for sharing socially, how to best write content that is easily socially engaging and share worthy and creating a site that is search engine friendly for the purpose of high organic rankings and free organic traffic from the search engines.

Don't worry if you are not a social media kinda person either, all this is taught in the training.

Personally, I am not a fan of social media at all. Social media is not a hugely important factor as we may think.

For two of my sites, I don't use it, the only result is and was that it took me longer to establish those sites. If you are social media savvy, great, you are going to excel at this part of your business!.

Right in the middle of your training is a well earned break. This is part of your training and allows for your to absorb and internalize what you have learned already. Don't skip your chillax period!.

Because you know you can 'Level Up' your income online!. The question is: Will You Take The Money!?!

Level 4 Get Visual. Get Aesthetic, Get A Brand Through Media.

I am sure you have heard this before in many aspects of life that appearance matters. Well, it is absolutely true when it comes to the look of your site. In the world of blogging and making money online, it is no different. You will learn about sprucing and spring cleaning your blog to make it a better experience for your audience of visitors.

Also covered is the potent aspects of all types of media, chiefly images and video and how to best use these in your daily marketing activities.

Pro Tip 5: Add a video to all your articles, be it your own or one you found on youtube as it is good for SEO (Search Engine Optimization) purposes and enhances your user's (Visitors) experience.

Level 5 Knowing Your Audience And Capulating Your Referrals

In this part of the affiliate bootcamp training you will be covering a whole variety of important topics, at the core of this training is to help and assist you to a much greater understanding of your audience and obtaining much improved skills in regards to converting a website visitor to an invite...and of course and to a sale.

Core and key aspects taught are how to create content with intent, harnessing the power of video, amplifying your conversion (of traffic to sales) by means of subtle additions to your content, the best ways to share that positively encourage user engagement and getting your comments to convert.

The better you know your audience the more you can genuinely help them to solve their problem(s) and the more likely they will become happy and willing customers of yours.

Because financial security IS waiting for you. The question is: WILL YOU TAKE IT?!?

Pro Tip 6: Money and getting sales is not the reason for you being in business it is the by-product of all that you do to help people. Genuinely helping people creates trust and happy repeat buyers. This is applicable to all niches and market sectors.

Because I help people first, and I do mean authentic and genuine help I have a list of customers - even on the most obscure of niches that have been my customers for YEARS!.

Level 6 Bing, Yahoo And The Power Of PPC

If you didn't know PPC is an abbreviation for Pay Per Click, a form of paid advertising and marketing.

Although paid marketing and the use of paid traffic is not obliged it is powerful and well worth knowing and can accelerate your business success - if done correctly.

Taught here is the use of not only Bing, and Yahoo as means of paid traffic but also taught is Google AdWords, googles own PPC advertising platform.

Personally, I prefer my niche sites to be as hands off as possible and thus I tend not to use any form of paid traffic and strongly have a preference towards free organic and almost effortless traffic from search engines

With practice and being self-taught became pretty proficient and knowledgeable in the field of Search Engine Optimisation - It appeals to my geeky side!

When you do get to level 6 and do wish to give paid search advertising using Bing, Yahoo and Google Adwords, do reach out to me as I have few easy to follow resources and extra training that helps you to optimize your ads for more clicks and greater profitability.

The curious and geeky side of me ended up with me becoming both Google Adwords and Google Analytics Certified.

If and when you get to this point and do wish to take your knowledge to a higher level and get more effective results, reach out to me and I will most certainly share with you a very high level specialist training course for Adwords and my other resources that I am sure will help you on your way to running successful PPC campaigns.

Level 7 How To Scale Successful PPC Campaigns

Just as the name of this part of your training suggests, here you are taught how to properly scale a build profitable, effective and successful pay per click marketing campaigns.

This is building on what you have previously learned on level 6 and is not as complex or elusive as it sounds, in fact, some of it I found "elusively obvious".

The process of scaling your PPC campaigns leads you well down the road to long-term success in the world of online business.

Pro Tip 7: When you see PPC ads in the search engine, study them as they contain key information that could be used for your SEO efforts! Note which search terms are triggering the ads (get the essential data from Jaaxy, the keyword research tool included in your Wealthy Affiliate Membership), and what is written as the titles of the ads (bold writing usually) the smaller text.

These could make great headings and meta descriptions for articles - thousands of bucks have gone into optimizing and testing these ads as the advertiser knows what is getting the clicks and what is not!.

Take advantage of that and create optimized content and be ready to get good organic rankings off the back of someone else's expertize, hard work and money spent!. This is one heck of a smart SEO Tip!... use it!.

Because you KNOW that you can become a very wealthy affiliate!. The question is: Will you JOIN AND APPLY THE METHOD?!?

Like the online entrepreneur certificate course, a reasonable amount of time to go through this training is 2 months.

Naturally, some of you will be quicker than others. Do not rush through it, take it at your own speed and rhythm and take in the lessons and complete all the tasks.

....including the programmed rest periods!.

The Tools Of The Trade!

As mentioned previously the Wealthy Affiliate training platform comes with everything that you need to succeed with no upsells, upgrades and nothing else to buy.

Lets now talk about the nuts and bolts of what puts your site together - the content management system and the hosting.

WordPress - The Content Management System

WordPress is a very easy to use platform from which you will build your site, in fact, 30% of all websites are powered by WordPress. In the CMS (Content Management System) market sector 55% of all sites are made using WordPress.

Absolutely zero programming skills or knowledge is required. Just the ability to be able to surf the web and use a word processor is all that is required. Nothing technical at all is needed.

The Hosting

Yep!, your Wealthy Affiliate membership comes with very, very, very VERY good hosting, in fact, the ability to host up to 10 of your own WordPress powered websites.

Your websites here are optimized for speed to load in under 2 seconds.

Pro Tip 8: If you noted I said hosting at Wealthy Affiliate is "very, very, very good". They are perfect for when you are setting up your site but you must keep an eye on your site speed, run a daily test from pingdom and keep and eye on that speed and your page speed rating from google (I'll show you where and how to get that - its easy!). This will help you rank better. 

Do make sure your site speed button inside WA is switched to Extreme for full benefits of speed.

I am still adamant that their hosting is very, very, very good, just a hare's breath from excellent. In my opinion, it is probably one of the better - if not the best, shared hosting environments for bloggers and WordPress

Speed is an important factor for all websites, it enhances user experience and Google has confirmed it is a factor in their algorithm to benefits sites that load quicker than 2 seconds.

It only makes sense that this ranking benefit for sites loading quicker than 2 seconds could be reduced to 1 second time limit in the future given increasing and improving technologies and yes, even better quality servers and internet speeds for all.

This is why I personally look for 1 to 1.5 second as a maximum load time.

The Jaaxy Keyword Research Tool

Keyword research as you will find very early on in your training at Wealthy Affiliate is an essential skill and you most certainly need a tool to extract the data that you need to find and determine if a keyword is viable or not for you to use and create content around.

Jaaxy, in case you are wondering, is owned by the Kyle and Carson, the very same guys that own and Run Wealthy Affiliate and thus offer their US$50/month research tool for free, they include it as part of your Wealthy Affiliate membership.

Pretty sweet deal right there, hosting, Jaaxy and training included!

In the screenshot above Avg refers to the average number of searches per month, Traffic, this is the amount of traffic that you could expect if and when you get your article ranked on page 1 of Google.

QSR, this is the Quoted Search Results, the number of competing websites for a given keyword. KQI, Keyword Quality Indicator and SEO, Search Engine Optimisation rating - expressed from 1-100 the higher the better.

Pro Tip 9: Keyword research is easy peasy lemon squeezy. Don't think too much about it and just do it. Wack in those keywords and see what Jaaxy tells you!. Do take note of the really good and juicy ones. Ideal numbers to start with a minimum of 20 to 30 traffic, QSR maximum of 50 to start with and a KQI Great. SEO rating of 95.  

Keeping your QSR low at 50 maximum to begin with helps you to find plenty winning easy to rank keywords, pick up easy winning keywords in your first 6 months is going to help your site to get traffic, ranking and early sales as your site gains trust and authority with search engines as you build it up and build it out!.

Later once you have flexed and developed your SEO muscles you can chase after more difficult keywords as your site gains authority and traction. As a guide, stick to 75 QSR until the 12 month mark and then keep on raising the bar as far as keyword difficulty/QSR is concerned.

Just for the record, there is no point chasing keywords with too much competing sites, you just won't rank or find it very difficult to rank for. As a guideline I keep my QSR at 200 as an absolute maximum, but rarely go above 150 or 175!.

Pro Tip 10: Pay close attention to this one, very close attention!. When it comes to keyword research find the questions that people in your niche area are seeking the answers to and answer those questions, make articles around answering those very questions.

By doing so you are being helpful, and above all you could very well get your post featured and appear in position zero, above position 1 and get a ton of traffic!

When your article gets featured in position zero, you get a much higher CTR  (click through rate to your website) and thus more of that juicy free organic traffic from search engines like google. Also, getting featured increases your authority and brand awareness in your niche market.

Personally, I love this technique so much, I am accredited to having named it "The Spanish Inquisition Technique" simply because it involves being inquisitive in regards to your market sector and what questions they are asking and answering them. It really helps your crowd and to establish your site.

A particular reason for always using photos and relevant "alt tags" (don't worry, you will be taught what those are in your training) in your articles is that you could get a special feature like in the example above.

It is not only your photo but videos also that could get a special feature in the search results. Note featured is the image, URL, Title and excerpt from the content! Freaking awesome!.

Also, note how similar and related questions also get targeted when a question gets asked.

Naturally, these questions get a higher CTR (Click Through Rate) than position 1 of the search engines.

In case you are wondering, yes I love Vietnamese coffee!...And yes I know of a tool or two that can tell you what questions people are asking and typing into search engines!.

Just look for me inside Wealthy Affiliate and I'll happily share those tools and resources with you.

Wealthy Affiliate Live Weekly Webinars

Yep!. Your training and education at Wealthy Affiliate is never ending and on going with the Live weekly webinars!

Every Friday at 5 Pm Pacific Time (8 am Every Saturday Morning Here in South East Asia!), Jay, the live training marketing expert and all round nice guy gives us an hour of his time with rather excellent and highly informative up to date training in a very friendly chillax manner.

Jay, started out as a WA member, like you and I. happened to be from the same city as the site owners, and "grew into" the position of the "live training guy".

A whole plethora of topics have been covered during the weekly live training, to date some 300+ editions.

Every quarter there is a Live QA webinar with Jay where you ask your questions. and he answers you live!. Also, there is a live hot seat every quarter, where you have the opportunity to put your website into the hot seat and Jay will review and analyse it for you and give you his own thoughts and opinions on what you could improve and what you are doing very well.

The particular webinars that I like are the "Niche project" ones where Jay goes through in a series of webinars the process of building a niche site from start to finish, from niche selection and research to creation of content and reviews.

Particular webinars, also colloquially called WAbinars inside Wealthy Affiliate, that are memorable for me were the 6 part Facebook ads series, the 4 week building of a niche site (Standing Desktops), 5 week course on Email Marketing. and the ongoing niche case study that if referred to a lot, Football Snack Helmets.

Which was so good and effective a site that it got featured on Good Morning America TV Show! during super bowl week!.

Because you know with this training you can build yourself a sustainable business online!. The question is: Will you let this opportunity pass you by?!?

Success At Wealthy Affiliate - Can You Make Money?

Yes, absolutely!. I Don't doubt it for a second either!. I make a living using the method taught at Wealthy Affiliate and there is absolutely no reason as to why you can't earn a living this way too....provided that....

1. You work hard!
2. Don't deviate from the method
3. Don't pick a niche that is too crowded or too difficult

I also add to that list being patient and not expecting to be making a serious income quickly.

This is not a get rich quick scheme claiming that you can earn US$10,000 in 90 days or less. This is about building a sustainable business online that will provide you with a regular income year after year after year!. How much you could earn is something that is impossible to say as there are too many variables depending on...

1. Your niche, which has a number of its own variables including size, ability to dominate and establish your site and profitability, quality products available to promote, commissions and so on.
2. Your Ability with SEO, (which will always improve)
3. Your writing style and ability to engage your audience, frequency of creating content.
4. Ability with a variety of traffic sources like social media and find your crowd.

Personally, I believe in you and that you can succeed just as I have and I will help you to as much as I can but ultimately it is you that has to do the hard work and go earn your living!. All I can say is that you can make money but I can't say how much, ultimately that is up to you!.

On the side note, if you were to set up and establish a physical brick and mortar business would you expect to make you money right off the bat? no?. Think of building your website site in the same manner. The days of instant success are gone, it is progressive and gradual. But the great news is things tend to snowball quickly.

It took me, personally 3 months to get my first sale..a whole US$3.20 and I felt like a millionaire doing the commission dance!. It is proof that it works!. 2 months later I had my first US$100 day!. I challenge you to beat that!.

That is an awesome success by the rather lovely and kind hearted Singaporean Jewel, who loves to help and inspire others with her success.

As you can see from the above screenshot, there are a few members that have hit the million bucks a year mark with their businesses after joining Wealthy Affiliate.

Those are the exception rather than the rule. But if they can do it, there is no reason as to why you can't either!.

If you are wondering, yes, that is great advice from both Dylan and Domenic.

Flipping sites, building them and selling them on and doing this over and over again is a very viable and genuine way of making a good income online.

On average a good site can sell for 30x its monthly income. Many people chose this as a way to make their money. It is up to you if you keep your site and build it up to even greater income or sell it on...Rinse and repeat as they say!.

Lynne, a former narcotics addict, and now serial webpreneur, mompreneur and social influencer keeps herself busy with her addiction blog, mommy blog, Make Money Online Site, fiverr gigs as well as being a known social media influencer in her native South Africa.

She managed, through hard work I add, to hit the US$3000/month mark in her first year of joining wealthy affiliate.

Incidentally, speaking, when I last chatted with her on messenger she was delighted at being given an awesome US$1,000 washing machine to review by a leading manufacturer!.

Littlemama, or Grace as we know her, is a fantastic example of how patience and persistence pays off.

It takes time to establish your brand and site. While some take 6 months to hit US$100 days, some its a year, for others just under 2 years.

But I ask you, if it takes you 2 years, just a couple of years of working on your site in your time to establish yourself and earn a full time income, freedom - real freedom, would it be worth it?

In my own humble opinion, you bet it is worth it! No boss, no working for someone else, no waking up early (unless you really want to!), just waking up naturally, zero alarm clocks, no traffic jam, no office stress or work friends that you don't like! none of that!. Just the freedom to work on your site where and when you want to.

Of course, once you get to this point, you always outsource everything and just manage your site and grow it working maybe only 2hrs a day. Or explore other passions and create new projects and new sites! diversifying your income.

Because you KNOW you can do THIS! ...The question is ARE YOU GOING TO DO IT?!?

Las Vegas Superconference - The All Expenses Paid Trip!

Every year around the end of January or the beginning of February there is the annual all expenses paid trip to Vegas! where affiliates attend the Wealthy Affiliate Super Conference!.

It is held in absolute luxury surrounding, accommodation is in fantastic suits that last year included vitamin C Showers!, on top of everything being paid for attendees are given US$200 for gambling, gaming, and basic fun activities.

I recall, the previous year, one of the attendees had a bowling alley in their room! I am no bowling fan..but how freaking awesome is that!.

...There is one catch though, to attend you have to sell a very achievable 300 memberships of Wealthy Affiliate throughout the Calendar year. That, I add, is only 25 per month, a very doable number with consistent effort.

Alternatively, if you sell 100 memberships from September to the end of the year.

This last figure and option is much more achievable despite being still the same 25 memberships per month to sell. The reason for it being more achievable is due to Black Friday and Cyber Monday special offers and people generally being in a buyers mindset during this period of time.

Across all my niche sites, this period is when I get more sales, consistent, year after year.

Because YOU KNOW that Wealthy Affiliate + My Mentoring = Vegas!. The questions is will you join and earn that all expenses paid trip to Las Vegas?!?

Wealthy Affiliate Frequently Asked Questions FAQ  - (Wealthy Affiliate Wiki)

Some frequently asked questions I get about Wealthy Affiliate. If your question is not asked here, please do ask it in the comments area below. I will be delighted to answer as best I can. 

What Is Wealthy Affiliate?

Putting it simply, Wealthy Affiliate is an online community and Social Network for Webpreneurs be they bloggers and content marketers to drop shippers to affiliate marketers to full blown e-commerce.

It is a training centre that provides top class high quality training that is improved and updated regularly to stay relevant. It is also a resource that provides you with all of the tools that you need to succeed as an affiliate marketer, including, secure hosting, keyword research tool, and an SSL certificate for your site.

Does Wealthy Affiliate Really Work?

Absolutely!. While Wealthy Affiliate is not the only place that I have tried, had success with and earned some money online with it is the one, the first one that helped me to achieve and consistent and regular income from what I wanted to do, which is affiliate marketing and blogging. Two birds with one stone as they say.

For the record, from niche site marketing, and a rather awkward niche!. In short, what is taught at Wealthy Affiliate helped me to build a sustainable business online, which was my dream!.

Are There Any Upsells Or Anything Else I Have To Get After Joining Wealthy Affiliate?

Nope, nothing at all. You can continue with your free site which is a non branded yoursite.SiteRubix .com (WordPress powered) However, I HIGHLY ADVISE YOU, to the point of instance to spend a few pennies more, US$10 to US$13 from a brandable domain name (YourSite .com).

This itself sets you apart and potential visitors will take you and your site more seriously, and thus more clicks and more sales. When was the last time you bought something directly or by means of an affiliate link from a WebSite.blogger .com, WebSite.Tumblr .com or WebSite.WordPress .com?

Once you do get sales, save up your commissions and reinvest in your site to get a premium theme and a logo made. Premium Themes are far better, prettier and faster loading and more customizable than the thousands of free ones available.

I always start out with free one on every site I make then upgrade once it earns some coin!. As far as a logo goes, yes you can make your own from a variety of free sites like Canva.com. Perhaps you are talented enough to make your own snazzy logo! (I'm not!. Unfortunately never been any good at art or graphic design at all!).

Again, the logo is part of your branding and should reflect that.

Matt Cutts, Ex-Head Of Spam at Google and a Part of the Google search quality team has stated that Google do indeed separate branded and non-branded sites giving benefit to branded sites. It makes good SEO to have a proper branded domain name and yes a logo. This not only aids your SEO and rankings but your sales and conversions also.

I Don't Know Anything About SEO (Search Engine Optimization), Will This Hold Me Back?

Absolutely not!, In fact, I was sh*t scared of SEO to begin with, before joining Wealthy Affiliate, now I am setting up my own SEO agency specializing in optimization for bloggers!.

What a turnaround! from shaking like a sh*tting dog at the mere thought of Search Engine Optimization to my own SEO agency!.

What is taught at WA is the simplification of SEO, in fact, it is hardly covered or mentioned, when it is it is done in a passive voice as it really is that easy.

I have already shared some killer SEO Tips in the Pro Tips Parts in this article, particularly my "Spanish Inquisition Technique". I'll help you simplify SEO even more once you get started with Wealthy Affiliate, I want you to succeed!.

Because there are no questions about it - Wealthy Affiliate Works!. The question is: Will You miss out on this opportunity or GRAB IT WITH BOTH HANDS?!?.

I am Non-Tech Minded And Have Never Built A Website Before! Do I Need To Learn About Website Design?

Absolutely not!...If you were doing this 10 years or so ago!, but not today!. This is thanks to the advent of content management systems like WordPress.

Just 3 clicks (if even that many!) and your first site is ready!. All you really need to know is how to use a word processor! and that is it!.

Think of WordPress like a big filing cabinet, you don't need to know how to make the filing cabinet, the metal work skills involved, just how to use it, appropriately create documents and file them appropriately for users to find and read.

Using WordPress really is as easy as using a word processor with the usual features, heading, title, bold, italic, bullet points, numbered lists. It is easily recognisable and nothing too unfamiliar.

Is Wealthy Affiliate A Get Rich Quick Scheme or MLM Program?

no!. There is no obligation for anyone to promote wealthy Affiliate or any of the associated products (Jaaxy keyword Research tool).

The fact is, most choose not to promote their products as they are not involved in that market sector. Most members are niche marketers pursuing their passions and making money out of their hobbies and interests.

How Much Can I Earn After Joining Wealthy Affiliate

Seriously, How long is a piece of string?. Wealthy Affiliate is about building a sustainable business online for the long run. It is very difficult to say how much any particular person or site can earn as there are way too many variables at play.

Put in the effort consistently and persistently and you will earn money with what is taught at Wealthy Affiliate.

Remember Grace, Littlemama from the screenshot above, one of the big differences she made in income from one year to the next was due to her being more persistent and consistent with her blog and switching to publishing fresh new content DAILY!.

Sure 470 posts in and she is earning what is lose change short of US$3000/month but some do achieve that figure with just 70 posts!.

Btw she does have one awesome and massive asset, a 7,000 and growing email list of subscribers that she can leverage.

Incidentally speaking, that is her income from just her site helping people to earn money online, she also has a pretty awesome e-commerce site selling handmade kiddies dolls, from a very original and unique angle!.

Wealthy Affiliate Is About Content Marketing And Blogging - How Long Should My Articles Be?

Ideally, you should be aiming at 1,500 words. If you can't reach that to begin with, don't worry, but to try to get as much as 600 words.

When I started my first blog at Wealthy Affiliate, I could only manage 1,000 word articles and set the goal of increasing that by 100 words per month until I hit the 1,500 word mark.

As you can see, with this article being over 1,500 words long, it just gets easier, and easier!.

I only planned on 1,500 to 2000 word article here but it ended up being much longer as I wanted to create a  fully comprehensive detailed blueprint of exactly what Wealthy Affiliate is and what you need to do to succeed with it!.

How Often Should I Create Content For My Site?

You should create fresh new original content at least 3 x per week, I personally do recommend a minimum of 15x monthly, that's one new every other day.

That slight increase gives you 36 articles more on a yearly basis. As an online entrepreneur and business owner my advice is for you to increase that on a yearly basis by just 5 articles per month per year, i.e

• Year 1 - 180 Articles published (15x month)
• Year 2 - 240 More Articles published (20x month)
• Year 3 - 300 More Articles published (25 x month)
• Year 4 - 360 More Articles Published (30 x month)

This might seem tough to keep up with but with more articles you have, the bigger and more authoritative you become in your chosen niche market.

Also, the more knowledgeable you will be thus the better articles you will create and yes, once you start earning you can always outsource your articles to a professional writer on a number of freelancer sites such as UpWork.

This, in case you are wondering is really the end goal, create a big beautiful site that you are proud of and can outsource the work and you spend your days in freedom to travel, take care of your family or simply just enjoy the pleasures of life and spend an hour or two overseeing the operation and running of your business, while profiting handsomely!.

As an entrepreneur, your 'job' is to grow your site!.

Who Is Wealthy Affiliate For?

Wealthy Affiliate is for everyone who want to make some extra money online from part time extra cash to full blown replacing your current income and more!.

Members come from all walks of life including a few Doctors and lawyers, to teachers and students, stay at home mum's and those the wish to travel the world as digital nomads earning and working from anywhere in the world just as long as they have a stable internet connection...and their laptop, of course!.

One such memorable member is indeed a well known and well published Oxford Graduate of Medicine, seeking to self-publish and "give away" less of her income to her publishing company.

Is This Program Newbie Friendly?

Absolutely!, it is designed for and ideal newbies! complete newbies and with time and practice you can indeed become and expert and earn yourself a full time income online.

How Quickly Will I Earn My First Commissions?

This is difficult to say. Most people earn their first commissions using organic search engine traffic in the first 4 months. I got mine in the 3rd month after joining and setting up my site. Subsequent sites, if you chose to make more than one, will become easier and quicker.

My second site earned its first commission inside the first month (which was from a forum user, I suspect..traffic, it is everywhere!).

Any site or system claiming you will earn huge bucks or instant commissions from organic search engine traffic straight away is complete BS. Google has the well known sandbox period for all new website which is about 3-6 months.

This is about building a sustainable and profitable business, not adhoc instant success, sustainability is the key to long-term financial freedom and business success

Is The Training Easy To Follow?

Yes, absolutely and very easy to follow. The training is done in a very clear concise non-technical way. All the training video's are in an over the shoulder approach, watch and learn. Pause if you like or need to. Step by step, baby steps that is!

I am Not A Great Writer, Will This Hold Me Back?

No, I started off as a terrible writer and only got better as I created more content and regularly get complimented on it!. My Girlfriend is doing rather well for her self with her own site and she is a non-native speaker of the English Language.

There many others who are non-native speakers that become successful affiliate marketers thanks to Wealthy Affiliate Training. One post I read a while back, by a Russian guy making 6 figures yearly!.

Personally, I feel that non-native English Speaking members are at an advantage as they can always set up sites in more than one language, this is just my own personal opinion and point of view!.

How Much Is Wealthy Affiliate To Join?

Currently, there are various options, including

• Free started level (No Credit card Required) - covers Level 1 of the Online Entrepreneur Certification Training
• Premium US$49/month ongoing
• Yearly US$495. Comes with free .com domain name of your choice.
• Special Black Friday/Cyber Monday Offer US$299, Less than US$25/month!.

You can, of course, go monthly and then upgrade anytime you wish to the yearly special offer, you can of course take advantage of the Black Friday Offer when it comes around.

My own personal advice is to join for free - try it before you buy it! then go premium once you have gotten through the trial period or level 1 training and take advantage of the 60% discount on the first month, allowing for you to get a better feeling for Wealthy Affiliate and if it is for you (or not!). And then you can decide to save some money later by going yearly.

Personally, I went yearly right off the bat!, sure I completed Level 1 training first, then went yearly, The reason I done this was to force myself to take action and earn back my investment in my training, education and my site as quickly as I could.

If that sounds like you, or if it is something that would motivate you highly, then, by all means, go yearly right off the bat like I did!

Because you would be crazy to miss out now on the opportunity to become a wealthy affiliate marketer!. The Question is: Do you really want to put up with your crazy unappreciative boss for the rest of your working life?!?

What Is A Keyword And Must It Make Sense?

A keyword is simply something an individual types into the search bar on search engines like Google, Yahoo and Bing.

With the advent and increasing use of technology for voice search by means of personal assistant software like Siri, Alexa and google own voice search it is increasingly becoming a must that the keywords that you select are grammatically perfect.

SEO Research indicates that Google and other search engines are ranking grammatically perfect targeted keywords higher than ones with slight errors. "How To Find A Niche Market" Vs  "How To Find A Niche Markets" despite the slight error the former is better than the latter.

What Makes A Good Keyword?

This is covered in the training. Generally speaking the lesser the competition, competing sites the better.

If you are starting a new site you are looking for the QSR in the Jaaxy Keyword research tool which is included in your membership, to be less than 100, ideally less than 50 for new sites. Better more established sites can target keywords with a competition of up to 200 QSR.

Do I have To Promote Wealthy Affiliate To Make Money?

Absolutely not, there is no obligation that you promote Wealthy Affiliate in order to make money online. I Have made money before I joined WA, and after much more. I did not start promoting wealthy affiliate until I entered my 4th year of membership. I focused more on niche site marketing and monetizing my blogs.

Just for the record, I only recommend Wealthy Affiliate as I do believe completely that there is no better training out there for bloggers or niche site marketer and those willing and wanting to earn money this way!.

Predominantly WA is about teaching you how to set up and start an authentic online business in any given area in which you can sell and promote any products or services of your choice. More often than not this is not going to involve the promotion of the platform.

I do not have any products to sell. How can Wealthy Affiliate help me?

Wealthy Affiliate will teach you how to establish and build a sustainable business online. Sure, selling your products, be they physical or digital or service based is a genuine possibility.

Wealthy Affiliate, however, teaches you exactly how to make money online by promoting other peoples products in exchange for a commission, which can be, most often than not a single one time payment or...what I and no doubt you will love...recurring commissions!

How cool is that!.

And you can be promoting products from the biggest and most famous of brand names such as Nike, Adidas, Sony, Samsung, Apple, Amazon, Rolex, Walmart or independent retailers. It is entirely up to you.

Where On My Site Should I Put My Keywords?

Great question!. In the title of your article, One H1 heading, the first sentence (ideally 160 characters) one Paragraph with a H2 OR H3 Heading and your closing paragraph or sentence and in at least one image alt tag.

Write naturally with zero focus on the actual keyword. If you happen to mention the keyword in your natural writing of your content, fine, but you would want to keep its appearance to a maximum of 7-8 times, including the headings and title.

Also input it the relevant area of your SEO plugin, typically the All in One SEO plugin. All of this is covered in the training.

Do not over optimize thinking it will benefit your site, it won't!. Google has a mini war on over optimization going on just now!.
