In this post, I’ll review the Wealthy Affiliate platform. If you are interested in learning more about affiliate marketing , keep reading; this might be exactly what you are looking for.

1. What is the Wealthy Affiliate program?

Wealthy Affiliate is a training platform that educates people on how to make money blogging. They don’t use the word blogging on their website, but that’s what they teach. It’s a technique to make money online that’s been around for a long time, and here’s how it works.

First, you choose a topic that your blog will be about. This is called a niche. This could be anything, but the more specific your niche is, the easier it’ll be to make money because there’s less competition. Then, you set up your blog and start writing posts about questions and topics people are searching for online. You’ll try to optimize your articles for certain keywords so that search engines will rank your articles high in search. That’s how people find your blog, and how your website will actually get traffic.

To make money with your website, you’ll have to include affiliate links in your posts. What you do is you start looking for products that relate to your posts. Then you sign up for the affiliate program of these products, and you’ll get an affiliate link, that you can integrate into your posts. Then, when somebody clicks your affiliate link and buys the product, you will get a commission. And that’s actually what Wealthy Affiliate teaches, and it’s the first way you can make money with Wealthy Affiliate by actually going through their program and executing what they teach.

2. Who is Wealthy Affiliate for?

Wealthy Affiliate is a platform for affiliate marketers of all levels and anyone wanting to make money online by building an online lite business from scratch. Whether you are just getting started or already a successful affiliate marketer, on Wealthy Affiliate, you’ll feel there is something you can learn and test with your monetization strategy.

3. Benefits of being a Wealthy Affiliate member

I’ll mention a couple of the most important benefits, and you can explore the rest if you decide to try it.

3.1 Learn affiliate marketing with the best educational courses in the industry.

The basic training consists of five courses, each with 10 lessons. These lessons contain explanations, videos, and step-by-step instructions. Each lesson also includes assignments so you can implement what you learned immediately. After you complete a task, you can mark it as complete and move on to the next one. Under each lesson, there is a discussion section that you can use to ask questions and get help from the Wealthy Affiliate community.

When you sign up with your email address at Wealthy Affiliate, you automatically become a free member. You have access to the first 10 lessons of the main course and can start building your first website with this free membership.

3.2 Build beautiful WordPress websites without any design skills

Building your website is SIMPLE on the Wealthy Affiliate platform. It takes less than a minute to build a beautiful money-making website.

3.3 Get expert help and advice whenever you need it.

It’s a huge community of other people like you who are aspiring to become online entrepreneurs and affiliate marketers. They are ready to help you with any obstacle you can confront. Lots of them are already successful, so it’s definitely a big deal for you.

3.4 Easily find keywords, niches and spy on your competition

The Wealthy Affiliate has one of the most advanced keyword tools, the Jaaxy. As a Starter Member, you’ll have free access to the Starter plan with 30 free monthly searches, and premium members have access to the Lite plan and a 50% discount on the Pro and Enterprise plans, but the Lite version is more than enough.

3.5 Directly network with 1.4 million successful affiliate marketers

The whole platform is designed so people can easily help each other. And this is what I like the most. A community filled with people who are doing the same as I do and are ready to help you solve any problem you can have.

3.6 Get a consistent flow of passive income

The first method you can make money with Wealthy Affiliate is by actually going through the training, building your blog, ranking your blog in search engines, and monetizing it by promoting affiliate products in your articles. If you like to write articles, and you’re in it for the long term, this is a great way to make money online.

Wealthy Affiliate is a great place to learn step-by-step how to make money online.

The second way you can make money with Wealthy Affiliate is by promoting the platform to others. Wealthy Affiliate has one of the best affiliate programs that pays you almost 50% commission recurring revenue monthly.

3.7 Learn how to promote Wealthy Affiliate

You can join a training program with 70 lessons that will teach you step-by-step how to promote Wealthy Affiliate and earn commissions.

3.8 Win an invitation to a four-day super affiliate conference in Las Vegas

When you reach 300 premium referrals within one calendar year, Kyle and Carson, the founders of Wealthy Affiliate, will invite you to a four-day super affiliate conference in Las Vegas, all expenses paid.

3.9 Don’t spend a dime before you decide it is the right thing for you

With your free account, you’re actually going to get the training, you can build two websites so you’ll actually get good training before you even publish a website on your own domain. They’ll also walk you through setting up your first website. So you get actually to build out the websites and everything before you decide to go with Wealthy Affiliate.

3.10 Save lots of money by becoming a premium member

With their monthly premium plan of $49, you can host up to 10 websites. Most hosting providers are charging 30$ or 40$ to host 10 sites. If you look from that angle, you’re just paying for the hosting and getting all the free training, thousands and thousands of hours of personal training. I believe it is worth it. 

Premium membership will cost you just $ 1.63$ per day, so it’s cheap, and you’ll get the first month of premium for only $ 19$.

4. Wealthy Affiliate Pricing Plans

Now that I've shown you the Wealthy Affiliate features, it's time to talk about pricing. The table below provides an overview of their pricing plans. Of course, you can start with a free membership (Starter plan), but as soon as you progress your training, you may get a paid plan. Wealthy-Affiliate-Pricing.png

The prices listed in this table are for the monthly memberships. If you decide to get yearly membership, you get a discount of $93 for the Premium plan ($495 instead of $588) and a $193 discount for the Premium Plus plan ($995 instead of $1188).

5. Wealthy Affiliate PROs and CONs

Wealthy Affiliate PROs

  • Free forever plan without payment information.
  • Best easy to follow courses for beginners in the industry.
  • Lots of new video courses made by experienced members for all stages of your online business.
  • The platform that’s been around since 2004 and the training inside of this platform is really good and up-to-date.
  • They provide you with pretty much every tool you need to build your blog
  • You don’t have to be a premium member to start earning commissions by promoting Wealthy Affiliate.
  • 24/7 support.

Wealthy Affiliate CONs

  • If you sign-up with the expectation of earning from day one, you will be disappointed.
  • If you don’t enjoy being social and interacting with strangers, the WA community can appear to be hyperactive
  • Wealthy Affiliate’s training lacks the sophistication of advanced digital marketing courses.
  • You can run a free website on their servers for 6 months and then it gets deleted if you don’t become a premium member.

6. Wealthy Affiliate Features

6.1 Online Entrepreneurship Certification

The learning process is very “gamified”, as in, everything is made to give you a sense of accomplishment you would get from beating a video game level. By doing certain “tasks”, you progress through each course and then move on to the next. An important thing to note here is that you cannot fail these courses.

They are designed to give you some basic knowledge and encourage you to stay a member of Wealthy Affiliate, not beat you over the head with a compendium of knowledge that you need to absorb within a time limit.

6.2 Affiliates Community

Wealthy Affiliate has a very activate and vibrant community. There are many people posting questions and some helpful people that try to answer those questions.

However, since so many people are just beginners, you sometimes run into a case of the blind leading the blind. So if you are asking questions in the community, make sure that you take advice from people that know what they are talking

6.3 Site Rubix – Wealthy Affiliate’s Hosting Solution

Wealthy Affiliate Site Rubix is a good option for beginners looking to get their feet wet. So the Rubix ecosystem gives you the confidence to launch a website and guides you step by step. However, if you are more technically inclined or if having more control over your property is important to you. I recommend starting a website outside of the Wealthy Affiliate ecosystem.

However, for most beginners, Rubix is a great option as part of your membership includes website hosting. That’s right, you don’t have to worry about signing up with another hosting company as website hosting is free with Wealthy Affiliate.

6.4 Market Research Tools

Research is crucial in every stage of a business. WA founders Kyle and Carson developed Jaaxy, a keyword research tool, which is integrated with the platform.
While Jaaxy Pro costs $49 per month, a limited version called Jaaxy Lite is free with your WA membership—a helpful bonus for any affiliate marketing venture. It works like any keyword tool, where you enter your primary/seed keywords. Jaaxy returns a list of your niche's most relevant and popular keywords, along with metrics like search volume, competition, etc.

7. Wealthy Affiliate FAQ

Is Wealthy Affiliate legit? Or is it a SCAM?

Wealthy Affiliate promises to provide you with tools and training to help you start your affiliate marketing business. However, it's up to you to put in the time and effort to be successful.

However, much of the core affiliate marketing training material has not been updated since 2015. Also, they offer no refunds on premium plans. This being said, I would not call Wealthy Affiliate a SCAM as they offer a FREE plan with enough information to see if the program is right for you. But it is only a miraculous get-rich-with-work program.

Is Wealthy Affiliate a Pyramid Scheme? Is it MLM?

Wealthy Affiliate has a generous affiliate scheme that pays double the commissions if you have a premium plan subscription. But you're not forced to recruit to get the training or to make money. Wealthy Affiliate is a program that offers training, hosting, research materials, and access to a community, which are real products. So, Wealthy Affiliate is neither a pyramid scheme nor an MLM.

Is Wealthy Affiliate worth it?

The Wealthy Affiliate training is worthwhile if you're new to affiliate marketing. The community and the help you get are also helpful. But you should use more advanced options for other tools like web hosting and keyword research, as things have evolved since WA started.

Conclusion

I think it’s one of the few legit programs that teaches you how to build a sustainable online business. And compared to almost every other course out there, it’s completely free to start and see if this is right for you. I went to the website and signed up for a free membership to see what this website is really about.

I was surprised that their website looked legit compared to other websites I saw. There’s no video playing with some guy talking about how they can make you rich in 30 days. They say that Wealthy Affiliate is a platform for affiliate marketers of all levels. When you browse a bit further, you get a good idea about Wealthy Affiliate.

What you get with Wealthy Affiliate is step-by-step training and a community that will keep you focused on one business with the long-term potential to make you a full-time income online. You can make money by creating a blog, promoting Wealthy Affiliate, or doing both.

I say  sign up for the free account and take the free training. You have nothing to lose. If you think it’s crap then like I said no harm and no foul. So go ahead and get your free membership right now.
