I am proud to announce that my journey here at Wealthy Affiliate has been one of an awakening, learning, joyous, surprising and a sense of accomplishment. Many times I tried to find a way to have my own business and was just a victim to pass money to the next person with nothing in return.
The Beginning
Back in July 2016, I was looking for a way to try to generate revenue in my spare time without trying to work two jobs which would have physically beat me down.
Once I did, I thought I had jumped into something I have no idea how to do which is building websites. But the platform here was so relaxing to a newcomer that it just fired me up to jump in and go for it.
Where Is The Catch?
That was going through my mind around the 3-week mark. I was waiting for the upsells and they never came. There was an offer to go premium which did cost but after feeling the power of the program the fear of being scammed was long gone.
There wasn’t an outrageous unattainable amount that was required which I know anybody would appreciate. I felt like $47.00 a month was not a lot to invest in myself.
But the monthly option saved me because I did not have the $359 yearly cost. I would have loved to go yearly but I simply did not have it.
But deep down inside because the way Wealthy Affiliate is set up, it is there to help you succeed instead of bleed you for your money.
My First Step
I took what Wealthy Affiliate introduced me to and the tools they provided me with and built a beautiful affiliate site surrounding my bike riding.
The Adrenaline Is Flowing Now
About 4 months into it I realized that I could introduce people to the program and I could do it feeling good that I was not misleading people. So I built www.dontbescammedsaysron.com.
This site came purely from my heart to show people you can actually start a home business without paying outrageous sign ups or upsells and get nothing in return.
This is one of the ways that Wealthy Affiliate trains you on getting traffic to your site and gaining another form of revenue in the form of referral fees. And believe me, it is one of the highest commission percentages available.
Ideas From Nowhere
Because of this new found love of mine, my mind really went into overdrive and because I like maintaining my lawn so much I started a lawn service and built my own site saving me an expense doing it the DIY way.
The site I came up with is www.oldschoollawnservice.com. This
Not bad for just starting up 4 months prior. I even incorporated some affiliate marketing on this site as well to generate income with products.
The Sky Is The Limit
When I say the sky is the limit, I mean that you can take anything and combine it with what Wealthy Affiliate teaches you and the potential will be there.
My last creation was done barely a month ago and I really am proud of this one. My latest baby is www.lithiummowers.com. I am
So we will see how things turn out by next year. I still have a long way to go as far as learning how to gain plenty of traffic but I am with one of the best programs there is and that is Wealthy Affiliate.
If my progress report showed you that a person with no experience and the help of Wealthy Affiliate can show you a way to tap into your creativeness, then you need to click below and try it for yourself.
Well, that sums up what I have done in the last 11 months. I’m not telling you that I have gotten rich but I am telling you that I am seeing income off of my websites.
This is not a get rich quick set up. This is a get rich in your ideas and dreams which will cultivate into some residual income that I know you could appreciate.

If you are loving what you are doing it won’t be hard. Do you feel you are always amazed at every course that follows the next? I know I was and it just powered me to learn more and more.

Hi, that’s a great story and well done on your success. My story is similar to your in the beginning in that I had tried other online businesses and was skeptical about Wealthy Affiliate, but you soon learn and build your website thanks to the online help and community of WA, reading this post makes me even sure I’ve chosen the right path. Thank you
