Wealthy Affiliate Real Review
My Wealthy Affiliate has over 800,000 members.
It is genuinely free to try it out.
It is cheaper to use My Wealthy Affiliate for training yourself up than any other Education Project.
You get support from the owners, Kyle and Carson.
You get Support from the members, I am one of them.
The courses cover almost everything you need to get you going and build a successful online business.
The project teaches what you need and tells you how to do it.
“My” Wealthy Affiliate because I am part of this community, it is my community.
We welcome new members and want them to succeed.
We know it can be challenging and sometimes hard work so we support each other.
Etc etc.
So Why Don’t People Jump at the Chance to Become a Wealthy Affiliate member?
As a new member, you need to contribute the following:
Do all the courses.
Do them in the order proscribed.
Apply them how you have been taught.
Ask for help when you need it.
Work.
Help other community members to succeed in what they are doing.
Even with some previous knowledge, it is a good idea to follow all the courses. This is because the two guys running the show are actively involved on a day to day basis. They are constantly updating the courses and adding new ones to keep everybody up to date.
They are constantly coming up with projects and ideas to help members, both new and “old hands.”
So why?
Work, is generally the answer. Too many people want a quick fix and be millionaires by the end of the week, or sooner. They are not willing to put in the study and the hours of practice to be at least competent in what they do.
It is possible to be lucky, hit on a good idea that no-one else has thought of and find someone who has the technical skills to activate the idea and then not steal it from you. Not everybody can be so lucky.
If absolutely anybody could sign up for the course and become a millionaire overnight, everybody would be rich.
You do have to put in the work yourself.
You will need to educate yourself.
Practice the Skills.
Repeat them as you improve them.
Learn how to repeat your success over and over again.
When you have a process that you know makes money, it is like learning to hit the bullseye with a bow and arrow. You can repeat it again and again without any help.
The Real Wealth
The real wealth comes now.
- Imagine you know your process to make money.
- Imagine you can do all the things you need to do and know how to aim your bow at different targets.
- Imagine you are running out of time. Running out of hours in the day, but you know you can make more.
- Imagine that there are some parts of the business you find boring or tedious or you really dislike doing.
Now comes the good part.
Outsourcing. Get someone else to do the tedious bits for you, using your skills and knowledge to ensure they do a good job for you and keep your business profitable.
That is the real wealth. It takes time. There are things which will improve as you build up your business.
OK. Rant finished.
The Wealthy Affiliate Programme
The wealthy affiliate programme is a series of courses, an educational project. It will enable anyone, following the courses, to develop a business online.
The Business can be:
- Affiliate Marketing
- Simply creating a regular blog.
- Selling products.
- Developing Specialist niches
- Internet marketing in almost all its senses.
You do not have to be a genius to complete the courses. Some people may take a little longer than others because we all have different backgrounds and different skills to bring to the table.
Within this project there are
- No adverts.
- No upsells, (there are some bits of software you may find useful, later on as your business grows.
- No hidden agendas.
- No tricks.
There are 3 broad stages in my Wealthy Affiliate
- You try the free membership to Wealthy Affiliate.
- You join the professionals and pay a monthly or annual subscription.
- You invest in software which will make your business faster, easier and bigger.
You can remain at any of these stages and make money, however, if you find you like it and like us, (the community,) you can create a business which is profitable and sustainable and, if you want, which grows and grows.
Knowledge is Power and the more knowledge you have, the more you can apply that knowledge to achieve what you want.

Thank you and because of you I have joined wealthy affiliate in just about a month. I have learn many new things that I never thought I could. The live class every weekend is awesome. Site support also helpful during website is down moments. But it is my fault that I installed a bad plugin. I caused my website to crash and they help me to fix the issue in 5 minutes. All the tools and support is provided to keep me going. So yeah wealthy affiliate is a good place to be
Thanks Kit
The WA sessions are really superb.
Like you, I found there was so much more than I had imagined to learn. Much of it was new to me and exciting to get into the heart and soul of this kind of business.
Aren’t those tech guys fantastic? I have never experienced such effective support, and they never moan and tell me how silly I am, they just fix it.
Good luck with your projects and maybe see you in the members forum.
I came I saw and I Liked. I am supposed to make comments here about your website and try to come up with suggestions. This is not possible for me. I visit a site where everything seems to be accurate, easy to negotiate, presentation very well done. Then I am supposed to get a feed back comment to establish my next phase of my training. I hope you do have the time to send me some feed back. Pretty sure you have gone through the training process. I certainly would appreciate some response and I thank you.
Thanks Lesabre
Thank you for your comment.
Are you saying you could find nothing to pass judgement on?
There is always something worth improving but if you found everything clear and easy to read, that sounds good.
Of course I am responding and, as you say, I have gone through the training and am continuing to do so. There is always something new to learn.
I hope you are enjoying the training yourself and finding it as useful as I do.
May I ask you one question? When you read the article, did you find it easy to understand?
If not, what could I do to improve it and make things clearer?
Thanks again for sending a comment.
I have to admit that I was once one of those people who thought that there was a miracle / secret formula to making money online and that once I found it, I would be filthy rich within the month.
But all that happened was that I was falling for scam after scam and as a result, I lost a lot of money.
Since then, I have changed my mindset and understood that it takes time to build any profitable business, be it online or offline. I am running a marathon now, not a sprint.
I am thankful to Wealthy Affiliate, for all that it has taught me and how it is allowing me to dream bigger and be able to make those dreams real.
Thanks Reyhana.
I can empathise with you over the scams. we know it is not logical but the promotions sell them by manipulating people’s feelings.
The feelings in Wealthy Affiliate are more of a supportive encouraging community. It is much better.
This business is also like a snowball rolling downhill. Once it gets going, it will roll faster and get bigger with only small shoves from us.
I hope you realise your dreams and remember that when you do, have another dream ready.
I wonder sometimes what people are thinking when they expect to make large incomes in the first few months of undertaking a new program. As a mature age person, I have not seen too many overnight success stories in my lifetime and Wealthy Affiliate would be no different in requiring hard work and dedication to succeed
Thanks Geoff.
Maybe it is when people are desperate that their critical facilities defer to their desire to solve a financial problem and their desperation over-rides their ability to think rationally?
There must be something strongly emotional because the scammers play on precisely that to snare people in.
Following Wealthy Affiliate training from a to z will enable most people to learn enough to make money one way or another on the net.
There are other programs which offer a fraction of the training of Wealthy Affiliate. I have never found anything as extensive and complete.
Thinking of “overnight successes “in the entertainment business, it usually takes years.
Great review. You laid out exactly what you get. We like what you said. No up-sells, no hidden agendas and no tricks. The reason we mention that is, we were members back in 2012 and went looking for other programs that we thought could make you money quicker.
We sure learned a lesson. Spent a lot of hard earned cash and wasted a bunch of time that I can never get back. Wealthy Affiliate is the best value that you will find. Just follow the training. Get into a niche that you really enjoy.
Like you say Knowledge is power. We see you have gained a tremendous amount of information and learned a lot of internet marketing skills. If you listen to HappyB and follow her advice and you too will gain the skills to make money online.
We are excited to see so many people succeeding within this community. Never quit and never stop learning. Your review hits the bullseye. If you want to learn how to build a successful business, and bring in the cash, then get in where you fit in and start the free training that they offer.
Thanks Ken.
It is good to hear from someone who has left and returned.
Nothing is perfect and I am sure that Wealthy Affiliate could be improved in some small ways. It is, however, the best you will get for training and support.
You are right, persistence and hard work while you follow the courses will give you a wonderful grounding in internet business.
The hands-on policy of the owners means Wealthy Affiliate members are always up-to-date with the latest changes in this business.
Good luck with your second time round. Hope it is really successful.
Yeah, there’s just so much you can learn on Wealthy Affiliate! After you’re finished with the main training, there’s so many lessons, tips, tricks being shared by other Wealthy Affiliate members… Almost feels like there’s not enough time in the world to get through it all, haha! And the tools, support, hosting, etc… It’s all just fantastic. Nothing comes close to WA 🙂
Thanks Rich. You are right. There is so much to this business it can be difficult to know what to do first. I was given this advice quite early on: Start at the first lesson and work your way through them all. Leave nothing out.
It was good advice because even in things I thought I knew something about, there were nougats of information that helped me.
When I got stuck and shouted “Help!”, there was always someone who had had the same problem and found a solution.
Ah Yes” Time. Could do with at least another few hours a day. It is good fun though.
Yes, Wealthy Affiliate is a very good platform to learn how to make money online, especially using Affiliate Marketing techniques. Your article really gives new comers, who wish to learn about this business model, an avenue to sign up for.
Should I dive deep into it full-time or start slowly until I have earned sufficient income from this business model?
Would love to seek expert advice from you.
Hi Thomas.
Thanks for your comment.
It is difficult to answer your question without knowing a lot more about your circumstances, however, I will do my best.
1. This is not a “get rich quick” business. It is a business which you can grow and grow.
2. There are several different business models available using the skills you learn through Wealthy Affiliate.
3. While learning, there are so many people who can help you if you get stuck.
4. The courses for premium members really do cover almost everything you need to know and want to know about online business.
If you are a premium member, my first advice is: Do all the courses and practice what you are learning.
If you do what the courses advise you to do, there is no reason you cannot have a viable, sustainable business and enjoy the journey getting there.
It does take people different times to learn and practice new skills
It takes time to build up the content on a web-site and get your articles / revues on page 1 of Google and other search engines. This boosts the traffic to your website and more traffic means more customers. More customers means more money.
I hope this has helped you to make a decision. Please contact again if there are more specific questions you have and good luck with your business.
An excellent breakdown of Wealthy Affiliate benefits.
There are some repeated contents in Tools and #1 Earn Money-Recommended Resources. There’s alot of information about Wealthy Affiliate programs excellent for new comers and alot of call to action which is good.
There is a lot to offer in Wealthy Affiliate and you have covered a lot of it here.
Thanks Violet.
There is so much that is potentially new to a first time reader that it would be possible to write even more. that would potentially scare people off because it is not really necessary to know everything from the start, just enough to get going on the journey of your life.
