Learn How to Make Money Online - A Wealthy Affiliate University Review
UPDATE July 2009: Yes, we are still members of WA and have been for over a year now. We're not about to leave yet. Now read on to see how it all started for us....
We love learning new ways to make money online so in June of this year (2008)we signed up with Wealthy Affiliate University - a website that teaches how to make money online using both free and paid techniques.
We have a great deal of experience in the world of internet marketing so we aren't beginners by any means. However, there is always something new to learn, and it is important to keep up with the latest developments if you want to continue making money.
We had heard good things about Wealthy Affiliate University and after checking it out, we realized that this was a program suitable for both those totally brand new to making money online as well as those who already have some experience.
This Squidoo lens is a chronicle of our experiences with the program on a weekly basis, in detail. By following our experiences you will be able to decide if this program is right for you.
We have remained members even after completing the 8 week course and we definitely recommend it.
We are sure that when you see the wealth of information and the tools available to make your online experience a success, you will want to continue with the program as well.
Wanna learn how to make money online? Head on over to Wealthy Affiliate University to find out how.
What is Wealthy Affiliate University?
The big difference between this program and a number of other programs on the internet is that this course teaches you a variety of methods to make money online rather than just one.
You will learn how to make money using bum marketing techniques like Squidoo, article marketing and classified ads. Bum marketing involves methods of making money online without spending a cent to start.
Wealthy Affiliate also teaches a number of paid techniques like pay per click and creating landing pages.
You can start making money without spending a cent with some of the techniques detailed in the Wealthy Affiliate University.
Whether you are a complete beginner or well advanced in Affiliate Marketing there is no doubt that you will definitely learn something of value in this program.

Features of the Wealthy Affiliate University
Listed below are what you get FREE with the Wealthy Affiliate membership. We will add more as we go through the program.
The Wealthy Affiliate Forum
One of the first things we did after logging into the Wealthy Affiliate membership site for the first time was to check out the forum.
The forum can only be accessed as a member so you won't be able to see it until you sign up.
We found that the amount of information here in itself is well worth the money. The Wealthy Affiliate University is a very close knit community with many of the members willing and happy to share their ideas and tips on the things that have helped them to be successful.
I particularly liked the information on optimizating a Squidoo lens. There were quite a number of amazing tips that I had never heard of before and I will definitely be trying them out. One member who was able to get their Squidoo lenses on the front page of Google within a few days went into full detail on how they did it.
The guys who own Wealthy Affiliate University, Kyle and Carson, are also on the forum answering questions and giving advice, so this gives you some insight as to what great people they are.
The forum is definitely one of the best parts of the Wealthy Affiliate website for getting help.
WA Gold
A few weeks back the members in wealthy affiliate were told that something big was coming.
Well all has been revealed...finally! You can now make money within Wealthy Affiliate!!
At the beginning of the month each person is allocated a cash amount and the basic goal is to give the cash away to people within the site who are helpful, informative or provide value in some way.
The recipients can then cash it out at the end of the month.
Site Rubix
If you have no idea how to create a website then this is for you! Site Rubix would have to be one of the simplest methods I have seen for creating a website.
You don't need to have any experience with html - it really is as simple as clicking a few buttons and adding your content. You can easily add images again with just the click of your mouse and they have some great templates to choose from.
But what is even more appealing about this product is that it is free when you join Wealthy Affiliate PLUS you get free hosting so you don't need to pay an extra monthly fee to a hosting company. Remember that Wealthy Affiliate only costs $29 a month so to get this feature plus everything else I have mentioned on this page is simply outstanding and great value for money.
Google Match Type Tool
I just tried this and it is a very handy little tool. If you are using Adwords on a regular basis then you probably already know about adding quotes or brackets to your keywords. This can be tedious to do manually but this little tool can do it all in about 2 seconds.
The Learning Centre
The Wealthy Affiliate University has an extensive range of learning tools. The Learning Centre itself is broken up into three categories depending on your experience - Junior, Intermediate, Senior.
Each of these categories is then broken up into sub-categories which are Guides and Tutorials, Videos and Downloads.
The information is quite extensive and you will spend hours in here learning from the best.
Spaces
Spaces is a bit like Facebook I guess. You can add your photo and a bit about yourself as well as links to your websites.
It's the place to interact with others, find buddies and generally chat about things.
You can also create your own blog which is a great way of keeping track of your progress as you work towards making money online.
Rapid Writer
The Wealthy Affiliate membership site has a program called Rapid Writer which allows you to create and spin articles.
I had a bit of a play with it but as yet can't seem to figure it out. Apparently one of the members has placed a video tutorial on the site which I am going to take a look at. Otherwise there aren't any real instructions on how to use it on the application page itself. Even after playing with this feature I am still not completely sure how it is supposed to function. However, I am sure it will all become clear to me soon.
Keyword Research Tool
The Keyword Research Tool allows you to conduct keyword research and create keyword lists.
This tool is so easy to use. Simply click on the icon 'KW Tool" on the top menu bar (it is second from the right) and when the Keyword Research Tool screen is returned, click on the 'Start Keyword Search' button.
Now you just key in a keyword and the screen will return all related keywords. You will also find that the keyword display shows the popularity of the keyword in terms of advertiser competition and the Google search volume.
And you can also use the dig tool to delve even deeper into the keywords.
I find the KW Tool invaluable and I am sure you will too.
Clickbank Research Tool
I have been using this quite a lot lately. The Clickbank Research Tool allows you to search for Clickbank products and it gives you a lot of information that you won't find in Clickbank such as the 20 hottest products, a Hot or Not list and best new products.
Using the Clickbank Research Tool has certainly assisted us to find products that are popular and return a good revenue.
Share Zone
This section was a fairly new feature to Wealthy affiliate when we joined. The Share Zone is a section of the site where members can upload their own tutorials and guides.
These might include simple step-by-steps like how to add an image to a Squidoo lens to something as advanced as How to Get Traffic from Ezine Articles and How to Master Keyword Research.
Members of Wealthy Affiliate University tend to be very active and informative posts are added on a daily basis so there is always something new to read.There are also a lot of video "How To's" that have now been included.
Keyword Lists
Within Wealthy Affiliate is a section called Keyword Lists and as the name suggests here you will find lists of keywords for everything from Internet Marketing to travel, animals and real estate. There are hundreds of lists so if you are starting a PPC campaign or working on article marketing then these lists will mean you don't have to search for keywords yourself. A great time saver!
Affiliate Program
You can actually make money with Wealthy Affiliate by promoting it. For each person you direct to WA who joins you get $20...and not only that if the member stays on you get $20 for each month they remain a member.

Sorry, I don't know about the CB2 product so I can't really compare. If it is just an ebook then it won't have anywhere near the support that Wealthy Affiliate has. The owners of WA, Kyle and Carson, have gone so far as to log into my Adwords account and tell me what I was doing wrong. Obviously an ebook is not going to give you that sort of one-on-one assitance.

Do you know anything about the CB2 product launching at the moment. How would you compare these clickbank e-course/books compared to level of support at wealthy affiliate?
Thanks
