INTRODUCTION
Wealthy Affiliate is a training program that teaches you how to build successful online businesses, has a very large and very interactive online community, and offers one of the best affiliate programs available anywhere online.
PROS/CONS
One of the perks if you work hard, a trip to Vegas, for free! You need nothing but a computer and an internet connection, that’s it. Follow the program, learn everything you can, and you end up earning money from the comfort of your own home. How quickly you earn depends on you.
I haven’t found any cons so I’ll update this page if I find any.
WHO IT IS FOR
Anyone. As simple as that. Anyone who wants to learn and who wants to be their own boss.
TRAINING/TOOLS OVERVIEW
The tools are so all inclusive and easy to understand that anyone can use them. You literally don’t have to know anything before joining. The same can be said for the training, so easy anyone can learn. Need an example, see for yourself.
New for 2016 the Site Domains platform. The platform will make your search for domain names easier and faster, and will have you up and running in minutes, no waiting for the name to be registered. Plus you won’t be charged more for renewals, you pay the same price for as long as you own your domain! Even better, the platform is available whether you are a Starter or Premium member, you will ALWAYS have access to WA domains.
WA has become a one-stop shop, it really couldn’t be easier.
SUPPORT
Since joining my experiene in terms of support has been amazing. I’ve asked for help on a few occasions and have received replies within 5 minutes of posting my question, I even asked for help at 3 o’clock in the morning and got a quick reply.
PRICE
The Starter membership is absolutely free, a Premium membership can be paid on a monthly basis at $47, or yearly at $359. If you should decide to upgrade to premiun within 7 days of joinng your first month is $19.
FINAL OPINION/VERDICT
Is Wealthy Affiliate a scam? I don’t think so. I’ve been with Wealthy Affiliate since September 2015 and have never looked back. I like that they have not tried to convince me that I will get rich overnight, success will come with time and hard work. The experience has been nothing but positive. The training has been easy to follow, I can study at my own pace and at whatever time is convenient for me.
Looking forward to reading your comments/feedback.
Great website. This is a great way to make extra cash when someone retires, I might try it. Keep up the good work!
If you do try it Monique I can guarantee that you won’t regret it.
Hello Sylvie,
I really am researching Wealthy Affiliate. I enjoyed reading your review and it explained the platform really well. It is really nice that this site is for anyone, that is hard to find. Congrats on your retirement, and I hope you get to travel and do things you enjoy. I will bookmark your site so I can return when I finish my research. Wealthy Affiliate sounds like just what I have been looking for.
With Kind Regards,
Linda
Thank you Linda, I appreciate that you will be returning to the site and can confirm there is a lot more content to come. Regards, Sylvie
Hi Sylvie,
Sounds pretty straight forward to me. But – are there any catches like upsells and purchases of other products?
Kindest regards
Rhys
Hi Rhys,
It is pretty straight forward, that’s what I like about Wealthy Affiliate. I have tried another program since joining WA and was very disappointed when I saw all the extra costs that I needed to pay if I wanted to get any further than opening an account. With WA, unless you stay with the starter membership which is free, your premium membership cost covers everything. And I can say from experience that you get a lot for your money. Cheers, Sylvie
I really enjoyed viewing this site.It has all the essentials for a great site.
The content is really great. I love the general layout of the site and the color scheme.
The site looks really clean,fresh and professional. Love the header you have on the top of the site.

Hamayun
Hi Hamayun, thank you for the nice comments, I love the header too, it’s a constant reminder of why I’m working so hard to build and maintain my site, and it’s all thanks to Wealthy Affiliate. Cheers, Sylvie
Great site this is very I actually learner the online business,on how to market, make my website and much more.I would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to learn how to make money online.I belive this great review and many folks will find it very usefull. Thanks again for great article.
Thank you for the input inzhiroz, I really appreciate it, I hope you enjoy WA as much as I do, regards, Sylvie 🙂
Hi, Sylvie! I love your website! I just want to jump in and tell everyone that Wealthy Affiliate is the real deal! It didn’t take me long to go premium and pay for it, because all the free training and all the friendly and helpful community members made it a steal, compared to other sites that promised me the world, but I needed to make one more “click” and pay more money to find out the “how to’s” that they were selling. I wasted a lot of money until I found WA. The only thing that I might call an “upsell” is their encouragement to pay yearly instead of monthly, but if you do that , it’s a substantial savings…not an upsell. I would encourage everyone who wants to start on online business from home to join Wealthy Affiliate. It truly is free with no string attached. What do you have to lose?
Hi Dennis,
Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment. I agree with you, we have nothing to lose with WA. I went Premium on a yearly payment last November when they had the Black Friday sale, what a deal, it comes out to about 80 cents a day. I can’t think of anywhere else where you can learn so much and get so much support for that amount of money.
Wishing you great success, Sylvie
Created the greatest arscliet, you have.
Thank you Donte,
I appreciate your feedback and will continue to strive to provide well written and informative articles.
Cheers, Sylvie
Very informative review on this great platform. As a member of wealthy affiliate, I can say that the services offered are unlike any website builder and it is a great platform for beginners. Its easy to give up with affiliate marketing, but keeping the potential long-term payout in mind always keeps me going. Great article, Cheers!
Thank you so much for the complement, I love wealthy affiliate and can’t say enough about it to anyone who wants to learn about building sites and creating their own online business. I wish you all the best and great success.
Hey Sylvie, great review of Wealthy Affiliate and great site too! Congrats on the retirement. I’ve been a chef for the last 15 years now or so and even though I’ve hated my job most of those 15 years, I always enjoyed cooking for and hosting retirement parties and made it a point to congratulate the retiree personally. It’s quite an accomplishment to be sure, one I look forward to with great anticipation 🙂 . I believe WealthynAffiliaye can be the first step in that direction for me or anyone. Best of luck to you Sylvie.
Michael
Hi Michael,
Thank you so much for visiting my site and for the nice comments. I have to say for a newbie, I’m proud of my site. I myself love to cook and have always admired people like yourself who can do it on a big scale. Best of luck and I hope you enjoy Wealthy Affiliate as much as I do. Cheers, Sylvie
I love this picture that you have here with this person sitting on the beach and cooling out, that is the kind of life style that I want to have and I am sure that the half of the working population would love to be in this position.Wealthy affiliate offers that opportunity with its training, tools and its community. It is all a matter of putting in the work and in time you will have this life.
Hi Norman, thank you for taking the time to leave a comment, and yes I would think most people are looking for this kind of life style. The person in the picture is actually me, and I had the life style for a few years, but I’m back at work while I continue building my site and studying at WA. But I know it’s worth it, and one day I’ll be back to working on my laptop while sitting in my chair on the beach. Cheers, Sylvie
Creating a sustainable business from the comfort of your own home is something most of us are interested in…the problem is…not all of us have the dedication to succeed. I feel that I have this dedication and patience so I will be looking into this WA further. What are the free websites like – do they like modern and impressive?
Hi Chris, thank you for taking the time to look at the site and leave a comment. The websites are actually very impressive, and as a Premium member you have access to such a large variety of themes it’s hard to choose one. And I agree, dedication is key to making your business a success. If you feel you already have the dedication I would say it’s worth your while to try the WA free 7 day trial period. Thanks again, Sylvie
Wealthy Affiliate sure is retirement. When I retired and planned things out, I thought social security would cut it. I was wrong. It’s way too tight. I was looking for a supplemental income because I never had a retirement plan or pension.
WA is the answer to my prayers. I have to say that everything happens for a reason and I found them at the right time.
They have the absolute best training and community support of over 800,000 who are there to help 24/7.
