Envy? Why? You make me laugh my friend If I think it's useless can I say it? Is it possible? Do you allow it?
Very true! How much crap have I bought over the years lol. Not saying WA is crap, just saying that most can be learned via free forums. But, if the info was worth the $30/month, ie you could save yourself 1 year from reading sometimes contradictory info on forums then sometimes a membership can be worth it...I suppose.
To answer your questions... Are any of you apart of Wealthy Affiliate? Hi! I'm a Wealthy Affiliate member. Do you recommend Wealthy Affiliate to others? Yes, I'd recommend it to others because what WA teaches really works. If not for the commission that I'll get for recommending WA, I'm a little bit hesitant in recommending WA because a WA member is a potential affiliate competitor especially if he learns how to do affiliate marketing the WA way What kind of stuff did you learn with Wealthy Affiliate? How to lower cost-per-click, avoid google slap, increase click through rate, how to group keywords, how to write compelling ads... to name a few. How long have you been with Wealthy Affiliate? I've been a WA member since January 2008! See you inside!
To bump a thread like that ... this is nothing but spam ... What a unique signature! DIGITALPOINT is better than Wealthy Affiliate!
I agree with digimac- Internet Marketing in my opinion is going through the mess to find the Gold. The way I see it is this, if you have everything handed to you in a neat clean little package than your appreciation for it is not going to be what it should. But if you work for it, dig through the sh%@ to get it, and find that system that works. You will work harder at building, growing, and maintaining it. You will appreciate it for all of the effort you put into getting it. And I believe you will make more from it in the long run, because honestly who in there right mind would give you the secret to immense wealth for 30$ a month, who will help you overcome the bumps and ditches on the road to wealth, or help you build an empire bigger than theirs. NO ONE - But the choice is yours! Just my 2c
First I have heard about WA, *heads over that way now* $360 a year seems a little steep. It would better be worth it for that amount. I might give a 1 month subscription ago tho.
I think they do good job positioning themselves as 'top affiliates'. I suppose people could TRY them and see how it goes. No personal experience here.
I quit. But I just had to ditch the expense. It is for people who want to master article marketing if you must go free or it is for people who are into ppc marketing. You can also use their social network or their freelance job board and they instituted an area where they give away free stuff from the members. The freelance job board makes it worth it as everyone knows it costs to be members on most of the freelance boards. Thats about how I see it. Hope that helps
Right They talk about a lot of free marketing but from what I saw it was mostly ppc and article marketing. I stand by my original entry.
I was a member until recently.. They teach basic stuff like article marketing, adwords etc. There teaching is spread over 8 weeks and their hyped forum doesn't consist of any new motivating success stories. there are some tools which they provide like article writer, site rubix, hosting and some cb product info. You can find much better info in DP here so why spend money.
I signed up for Wealthy Affiliate a week ago, and I wish I had joined earlier when I had the chance. Knowing now what I should have known then, I would have saved myself a lot of money. In all honesty, Wealthy Affiliate's forum is no different than Digital Point's. I mean, WA has a little bit of inside information that pertains to some of the products and tools that are specific only to Wealthy Affiliate members, but they're not cosmic concepts. For example, they have there own website builder. In order to use it, you have to be a member. But the good thing about Wealthy Affiliate is how extremely organized and well set up they are. Your dashboard interface is fast-loading and easy to navigate. Minimalist, but highly functional. Also, Kyle and Carson, the owners, really do go out of their way to help their students. All their ebooks as well as the intsructions within the database itself is written in a pleasant-tone, striaght forward and instructional. And their forum follows suit. You won't find many snide or cocky tones there. Everything is put into laymen's terms. You understands the whats, the whens, the wheres, the hows and most definitely the whys. Plus, there's an 8-week action plan to get your started. I would recommend this most to a brand spanking newbie affiliate marketing because it provides everything you need: webhosting for free, website builder, keyword tools, etc. You really don't have to go out and purchase these extra tools. WA provides it all in-house which is included in there $39/month subscription. These is extremely cheap. The running rate is $150/month and up. I've paid $7000 for coaching, and it offered maybe a third of what Wealthy Affiliate offered. Despite WA stating it's a great place for all levels of affiliate marketing, I think it's best suited for beginners, the overwhelmed, and the ones who haven't made a buck. If you're already making money right now, then signing up for Wealthy Affiliate is not going to provide you any more than you already know. If you're a do-it-yourself, learn-as-I-go kind of entrepreneur, then you don't need Wealthy Affiliate. If you're the kind of person who prefers interaction, an actual set of tasks and lessons, people to interact with for feedback, then Wealthy Affiliate is best suited for you. You can pay month by month or you can pay for entire year's subscription, but there's honestly no contract; you can stay for as long or as little as you like. Most recommended for the new newbies still getting their feet wet. If you need just that extra hint or tip, then you're better off buying an ebook.
