Maybe I should of said wealthy affiliate scam, or don’t join WA until you read this? that is what most of the ads say, if you don’t already know this is an old trick that a marketer came out with a year or so back and everyone has jump on the bandwagon since then, Its used to get you to click on their link.

My goal is just to inform you of the tremendous value that wealthy affiliate has been in the past and will continue to be. I have been a member of many different membership sites some have cost over $95.00 a month, once they get your money they can go for years without adding anything of value to it and only add to it when the membership starts dropping off. Don’t believe me? Just pickup any of the ebook’s about creating a membership site and read for yourself.

Here is the big difference with wealthy affiliate Kyle and Carson are on the site all the time, they answer their emails and post ideas, but more importantly they watch the forum to see what we the members need. Here are just a few examples.

The topic of web hosting used to come up all the time, a lot of the new marketers just starting out just could not afford a hosting account, something that you really need if you are going to grow your business, out of the blue came a post from the founders to look forward to some changes at wealth affiliate, rumors started to fly all of us new what a bargain we had with the many tools provided so everyone was sure it was a price increase. to are pleasant surprised they announced that we now had web hosting for up to 20 domains and it is free as long as we maintain our membership.

Some members were looking for a quick way to make some cash to invest in their future business, Kyle and Carson introduced WA Jobs This system allowed us to post jobs that we wanted to have help with, or bid on jobs that we want to work on. This gave us an opportunity to utilize the WA community to help us with our projects, or to make some cash!

Another tool added to the family of Wealthy Affiliate tools and services is called WApedia. Terminology can be a killer to someone just getting started so if you want to learn the Internet Marketing “lingo”, WApedia is fully searchable and will help you find definitions for anything you are looking for.

Then came Site Rubix the Most Advanced and Easy To Use Website Builder Available Online. And once again no rate increase.

Like any business there comes a time that you have to raise your price in order to continue providing top services and tools and that time has come for wealthy affiliate membership, but along with the new pricing will come yet another tool, Kyle and Carson have been very hush hush about it so I have been doing some snooping around the forum and I do believe I have a good idea what it is I could be wrong but I don’t think so, its something every marketer needs from day one till they get out of the business or pay someone to do it for them.

There are membership sites that only offer this service and will cost you $20.00 to $30.00 bucks a month, now here is the kicker, they are going to grandfather all existing members, that’s right if you join before May 6 th you will lock in the lower price!

At some point in time you will have to invest some money into your online business, why not do it now lock in the lower price, if you find wealthy affiliate is not for you all you are out is $30.00 bucks, you will waste that much on a rehashed ebook.

If you do decided to join maybe I will be reading your post in the general success forum like this next year!

Time Is Running Out Lock In The Lower Rate Today!

If you have been on the fence and not sure that wealthy affiliate is for you, its time to get off the fence, on May 6 more new features will be added to the already cornucopia of tools and benefits offered and with the new tools will come a long over due price increase to the membership but as always Kyle and Carson will be protecting the existing members from any increase so you still have time to join and save money.

Wealth Affiliate has been around for over 3 years helping marketers to learn the ropes of internet marketing, they have never raised their price but continued to add more and more benefits to the membership. WA has become the only membership site that strives to help any member willing to put forth the effort needed to make an income online.

For the last two years Kyle and Carson have sponsor a challenge at WA, last year it was a $500.00 challenge and this year a $1000.00 challenge, what these challenges have done is open the door to many different techniques used to promote programs, websites and products that members are using to make money online here are the results I have remove the techniques each winner used.

I have been a member of sites that cost me $95.00 a month and received nowhere near the benefits that I receive from wealthy affiliate. Is Wealthy Affiliate for everyone? No if you are looking to make quick and easy money with a push of a button then you need to continue wasting your money on the next newest and greatest make money over night scheme.

But if you want to build a good solid base for you business, you need to invest time and a little money to do it right.

Now is the time to check Wealth Affiliate out while the cost is still less than $30.00 a month. After May 6th it will cost you more so act now. 

There is a roomer going around that Wealthy Affiliate also known as WA is a cult. To answer this question lets look at what the definition of a cult is.

Merriam-Webster  definition: Pronunciation: \k lt\
Function: noun
Usage: often attributive
Etymology: French & Latin; French culte, from Latin cultus care, adoration, from colere to cultivate — more at wheel
Date: 1617
1: formal religious veneration : worship
2: a system of religious beliefs and ritual; also : its body of adherents
3: a religion regarded as unorthodox or spurious; also : its body of adherents
4: a system for the cure of disease based on dogma set forth by its promulgator <health cults>
5 a: great devotion to a person, idea, object, movement, or work (as a film or book); especially : such devotion regarded as a literary or intellectual fad b: the object of such devotion c: a usually small group of people characterized by such devotion

Dictionary of Theology

Cult
      The word cult is a derogatory term used to express disapproval or those who hold beliefs other than one’s own. More generally, a cult is a cohesive group of people (often a relatively small and new religious movement) devoted to beliefs or practices that the surrounding culture or society considers to be far outside the mainstream.

I think based on the definitions that there is some support to that statement, number 5 from Merriam-Webster definitely describes Wa members, they have a great devotion to the idea of making money online and to the movement of helping others achieve their goal of financial freedom.

If we look at the definition from the Dictionary Of Theology, it hits Wealthy Affiliate dead center, because Kyle & Carson have a belief that anyone can make a living online with the right support and help, they have put that belief into practices by creating Wealthy Affiliate which is so far outside the mainstream of other internet marketers and forums that they are now using the term cult in its derogatory form to express their disapproval.

Unlike other books, forums and marketers who promise you overnight wealth, this is what you will find on Wealthy Affiliate Sales page.

Before you continue on reading we need to agree on something. Making money on the Internet is not a get rich overnight scheme. If it were that easy everyone would be doing it, making millions of dollars a year from the comfort of their homes. If you are not willing to put in the time to learn the proper Internet Marketing techniques there is no point in even considering Internet marketing.

We want to work with people at Wealthy Affiliate who have the desire to succeed, not those looking for a get rich overnight without working for it (there is no such thing). We have helped literally tens of thousands of people earn money online in the past few years and offer an absolutely awesome program for teaching you how to get started.

So if Wealthy Affiliate is a cult it is a cult that you need to join if you are willing to work hard to realize your dream of an online business. I hope to see you inside Wealthy Affiliates secret chambers as a member of this very special Cult called Wealthy Affiliate
