My Personal Experience with Wealthy Affiliate
Before
About a year ago I almost spent my hard earned $25 on a blogging set-up. The blogging product I was going to buy was supposed to make money for you easily. The company was Empower Network. Note: I am not here to bash any companies, but I will tell the truth about what I experience with them as I review them. It’s possible that EN has worked for some people, but I did not see how it could work ethically, and I would have had to spend much more than $25 to get any training. As I was trying to decide whether to buy the product or not, I read more EN reviews. Somehow one of the review pages led to WA, and that is how I found it.
When I found out that Wealthy Affiliate had a monthly membership (for Premium), I got cold feet and almost left, as it brought back memories of the many times I had been scammed online. Besides, I barely had any money to pay for a membership. I was looking for ways to earn money, not spend it.
At the same time, I remember how impressed I was that Kyle and Carson had briefly spoke to me when I was brand new. I still get personal help whenever I need it. I thought it was really cool that the company owners were personally in touch with people. But then the suspicious part of me kicked in and I became more skeptical. I thought they were just another two incredibly smart guys making money off of gullible newbies. Sorry guys, no offense!
After
I have learned:
- How to start and run an online business.
- How to use my strengths and talents to earn money online.
- How to help others with what I’ve learned.
- That failure is a part of success and success is a journey.
A Few of my Favorite Things:
- Safe learning environment.
- Pay it forward mentality.
- Friendly and welcoming atmosphere.
- Tools that do all of the technical stuff for you.
- Live weekly video classes.
- Personal help from Kyle/Carson (owners) & Jay (live training coach)
WA Helps and Encourages You – Personally
Help from Kyle:
“Don’t be afraid if you ever need help, I am here to give you a hand and you have the entire community behind you as well.”
“Anyone that doesn’t quit doesn’t fail. Self doubt is overcome by knowing that you can accomplish success…and I am here to tell you that you can. I have and so have millions of others, what is the reason that you can’t? There IS NO REASON.”
Kyle
Help from Carson:
“Kyle and I are both here to help, you’re not alone.” Carson
It’s pretty cool to get personal help from the owners of a large, very successful company. How many CEO’s do you personally know that will give their time to help you succeed, much less care about your success?
You Have Nothing to Lose…
You can get complete access to WA for 7 days. Take the chance to try out the Premium aspects of WA. If you don’t become Premium after 7 days, you can stay a free member as long as you like. When I joined WA, I liked the fact that I could upgrade in my own time and that there wasn’t a time limit on staying a free member.
*WA is Training, Not a Job*
Take the steps and you will earn money.
Still Have Doubts?
I don’t blame you. Why do something just because someone else says its great? The important thing is that you discover what’s right for you. I just love to share my experience because I walked in the door with huge doubt, but learned that this place is for real.
Of course, everything isn’t all sunny and perfect, there are cons. You can see some of those in my “Pros and Cons” section above. I used to think that only the guys high up on the ladder made the real money. How wrong I was. Don’t take my word for it though, experience it for yourself.
My Final Thoughts on Wealthy Affiliate
This company teaches you the the skills that you need to start an online business. It also offers support and extra training to an already established business.
I’m excited and I feel comfortable recommending Wealthy Affiliate to others, because I know it’s the real deal. It feels like a breath of fresh air and freedom after being scammed by the Internet sharks.

Valerie says
Hello. Maybe I missed it but, is it your product I will be selling?
Jen says
Hi Valerie,
No, you would be choosing products that you are interested in selling.
There is an affiliate program for Wealthy Affiliate, and it’s for those people who wish to share and promote Wealthy Affiliate, such as my website Work Online Scam Free does. However, I do have another website about lupus.
You can build a website around nearly any hobby, passion or interest.
So, no you wouldn’t be sharing Wealthy Affiliate unless you decided to choose that route. 🙂 There are many members who have businesses completely unrelated to Internet Marketing. Some examples are, websites helping people who have anxiety, websites selling and sharing makeup tips, parenting websites and so on. The sky is the limit!
Please let me know how I can help further and thanks for the comment!
Tiffany says
How much is it to join
Jen says
Hello, Tiffany.
It is free to sign up and check it out and see if it is for you. There is no limit on how long you can stay free.
To join as a member it is $19 for the first month and $49 for each month thereafter. The only other cost is a domain name which is $10 to $12 per year. You only buy this when ready and there are no other things to buy. No upsells (meaning, no other surprises or being told you need to buy this or that). Everything you need to make money online/build your own business is at Wealthy Affiliate.
Let me know if you have further questions. 🙂
Doug says
I am wondering how is money made through WA.
Is money being made from products being bought and sold?
Is money being made from information being bought and sold?
Just wondering, Doug
Jen says
Hi Doug.
First of all, I apologize for you leaving this comment on Dec. 23, and just now I am answering it on the 27th. I strive to answer quickly so I am sorry it took so long.
To answer your questions, you earn money through WA by promoting affiliate products. Yes, money is earned by products being bought and sold. You find your passion, then you build a business around it with the affiliate products.
I’m not exactly sure what you mean by is “money made from information being bought and sold.” If you could clarify that for me, I’d be happy to answer it.
Thank you so much for your questions and comment. I hope this helps.
Talk to you soon. 🙂
Terry Clark says
Thanks for the review Jen. I had registered a little over a week ago, late at nite, and hadn’t even looked at it. My delay is that I have a product I invented, but don’t have the money to get a patent yet. I can’t start selling till I get that protection. So glad to know that WA is legit and will be waiting when I get ready to sell. Thanks, and God bless!
Jen says
Hi, Terry.
You’re welcome. There are so many Wealthy Affiliate reviews out there, haha. I appreciate you commenting here about.
I am glad you decided to register with Wealthy Affiliate.
Congratulations on creating a product! That is such an accomplishment to me and so exciting. Good luck and I hope you don’t have to wait too long to receive your patent. Please keep us updated on when it’s released-I am very curious to see it. 🙂
It is a nice feeling to know WA is legitimate.
Thank you and God Bless you too.
Mike Rodgers says
Hi, Jen. I have been in an online company and have paid nearly 500 dollars in an they keep wanting more and more money and it seems like I am getting the raw end of the deal the products are extremely over priced. They keep upgrading their systems and I am unable to make any money unless Ib buy the cheapest product which is another 675 dollars, not including the 100 dollar monthly fee to be a member plus fees for promoting yourself.
I am at a loss for words and money. I know there is a lot of money to be made on the internet but I don’t want anyone to go through what I went through it isn’t honest or right to manipulate people for money. I have seen your video on how easy it was to make a website and I am looking forward to joining.
Jen says
Dear Mike.
I am so sorry you had to go through all of that and spend so much money without receiving what you were supposed to in return. A lot of companies do that.
Wealthy Affiliate isn’t the only legitimate company out there, but it is one that has everything you need to create, run a business, earn money and do something that you love for under $50 per month. It’s not just a membership, it gives you the training, tools and community support to help you when you feel discouraged.
I look forward to you joining and it’s free to join for ten lessons. Then you are asked to upgrade, but you don’t have to. You can still stay a free member you just won’t have access to certain trainings. I really believe in not being pressured when I buy something. So take your time, an I look forward to seeing you on Wealthy Affiliate!
Please Click Here to Join. All you need is an email and a username.
See you soon!
Jen
P.S. If you would like to take some steps to try to get some of your back back from that other company, or report them, please let me know and I will help you so other people are warned.
sonia says
I am so glad that I came across this site before I did anything I almost paid to do The Email Syndicate. Thank the lord I saw you first I would have been pissed.
Jen says
Hi Sonia.
I’m glad the review helped you out!
Thanks for commenting.
Cindy Hoffman says
Hi Jen,
I appreciate your welcome. I read your page and it was so weird because we have backgrounds that are so familiar. For instance, I belong to WA. I think they are a great company and I have never heard a bad word against them. I had a problem with the monthly fee. not that they don’t deserve it or that they don’t have value, but I just can’t afford it right now. It bugs me when they say ‘check it out Its free to join” then you join and then it changes to “oh yea its only free for a certain amount of time”. That is the only problem I have.
I have fallen for every scam in the book. I should be able to make money from Look at me I pay for scams! LOL
I am sorry to hear about your health problems. I too have Lupus SLE and Fibromyalgia and all of the pain that goes with it. Like you I am not looking for a pity party but this illness is part of me and has helped shape my life.
To Our Success

Jen says
Hi Cindy.
I agree that Wealthy Affiliate is a great company, one of the best online training programs to teach online success. I can understand your point about the “free to join” but then they ask you to upgrade to $19 for the first month and $47 for each month thereafter, but remember that you don’t have join as a Premium member and pay anything. You can stay free as long as you like, though you won’t have access to the awesome live video training by Jay.
I was wary too of the price and thought Kyle and Carson were just some more Internet “gurus” making a lot of money off people. Sure, they make a lot of money, but they also personally help people, even in chat, they will help non members. My point is that they truly care and what you get for the monthly fee I have not seen anywhere else online.
I am so sorry to hear of your health problems. I can relate. Hang in there.
Thank you so much for your comment and please email me or leave a message via the online chat. I hope to talk to you soon! 😀
Brian says
Just have a question about the payout, about how much does the typical starter make?
Jen says
Hi Brian.
The answer depends on the person, if they follow the training, and the amount of time they put into their business. I’m not trying to dance around your question, it’s just difficult to give you a number. You could earn a few hundred dollars a month or a few thousand dollars a month. In my opinion, you earn more faster if you’re Premium, but I tell people to stay free until they decide if WA is for them.
Some members earn a part time-income, and some earn a full-time income. Full-time earners are almost always Premium members, mainly because the training is more in depth, you have 24/7 access to one on one help, live chat, private messaging, live webinars and much more.
Thanks for your comment, and I hope to hear from you soon! 🙂
brenda says
WA is totally fantastic. If anyone really just needs to make a website or any kind of online help click the WA link on this website, you will not be disappointed.
Jen says
Hi Brenda. It’s great to hear that you love Wealthy Affiliate too. WA is great for so many things…as you said you can create a website, receive any kind of online help with making money online, know that you’re in a safe environment with no scams and you can check it out for free/stay free if you like.
Thanks so much for visiting!
