How to use an autoresponder

Have you heard about an autoresponder yet? An autoresponder can be a very powerful tool and today I will show you what it is and how you can use it to earn money on autopilot.

What is an autoresponder

Let’s say you have a website and you added a sign-up form to collect email addresses from your users. Every time a user enters his email address and presses on sign-in you collect a so-called lead. And to every lead, you can send emails.

To build a relationship with your users it is a good idea to welcome them and to tell them something about yourself. For that, an autoresponder can be used. The autoresponder sends one or more emails to your leads after you collected their email address.

This can be for example a welcoming email the day the user signed.

How can you use an autoresponder

As I already mentioned you can use the autoresponder to send a welcome email. You can also use it to send further follow-up emails. For example, if you have a sign-in form that promises the user a free email course (like the one on the right) you can send them the parts of the courses by email with an autoresponder.

Later on, you can inform your leads about new blog posts or about new products you found. The better the relationship between you and your email lead the higher your conversions. If you have users that trust you very much it is very likely that they will buy one of your products.

Let’s say you have a blog about fitness. So the first welcome mail can be for example about motivation. 3 days later you can send them an email with diet tips. 5 days later they get an email about a workout or something like that.

How can you earn money with an autoresponder

You can also use it to promote your products. Let’s take again the example of the fitness blog. The third mail, for example, can be a promotion about your training system. This is very powerful because your customer already has a relationship with you so they are more willing to open your mail and try your product.

And while they are reading your mail you don’t have to do anything! These emails will be sent on autopilot so you can sell your products while relaxing on the beach or drinking beer 🙂

It really depends on your user base and the context but in email marketing, you say that one lead is worth about $1 per month. That means if you have 1,000 leads you can make about $1,000 per month. Of course, not everyone in your list is buying your product.

But if you have for example a cheap product for $10 it is very likely that more people will buy it. If 10% of you list buys your product you earn up to $1,000: 1.000 leads x 10% x 10$ = 1,000$.

If you have a more expensive product fewer people will buy it but you have more profit per sold unit. As you can see on average you can make about $1 per lead.

Think about how much money you can make with 10,000 leads!

How much does an autoresponder cost

There are some email marketing tools that are free but I can’t recommend all of them. The problem is that in the beginning, it may be great because they are for free but when your user base grows the price also grows and then they are usually more expensive than other tools.

I have used two different autoresponder tools I can recommend. The first one is AWeber. It has a clean and simple interface and has all the features you need, to begin with. You can test AWeber for free for 30 days and later it starts at $19 for 500 users.

The other email marketing tool I can recommend is GetResponse. It has also a 30 days trial period and in addition some marketing tools like webinars or landing pages. It starts at $15 for 1.000 users.

I started email marketing with AWeber and I was totally happy with it and I use GetResponse on this website and I’m also totally happy with it. I don’t think you can do anything wrong here!

When it comes to email marketing I often hear: “But that’s $15 per month!”. Yes, that is true but email marketing is a very good investment. If you have a solid user base you don’t need to work much on your website anymore because you can earn good money with your user base.

So yes, in the beginning, it can be costly but the return on invest can be very high so use the chance! Have you used an autoresponder or email marketing yet? Do you know other tools you can recommend? I would love to hear from you so please leave a comment below 🙂

ViralUrl – scam or ledgit?

If you start building an online business it is important to use email marketing (see here 8 steps to email marketing). However, in the beginning, you have a very small list and therefore only limited options. But what would be if you could borough a huge email list?

If you could send out an email to 3,000 members every 3 days wouldn’t that be awesome? Yes, it is and for that, you can use ViralUrl.

ViralUrl is a viral mailer and there are very mixed opinions about viral mailer and I want to tell you my opinion. But to understand, whether this viral mailer is a good thing or not we have to understand how they work.

How does it work?

The principle of a viral mailer is that you can send a mail to every registered member. In many cases, you need credits to send out emails. You can either earn credits by reading emails from other members or buy them.Depending on the mailer you can send them for free or you need to pay to send mail. In addition, you also get the mail from other users.

Depending on the mailer you can even send out a limited number of emails for free but usually, you have to pay to send out emails.

Also, you get the emails from other members. In some programs, you can disable that by upgrading but as a free member, you will receive promotional email from other members. It is usually a good idea to have an extra email account for this purpose.

Costs

You start as a free member. You can upgrade to Silver, Gold or Platinum. From there you can update Diamond or Elite.

As a Silver member, you don’t receive emails from other members. Additional you get 2000 text and banner ads every month. The cost of a Silver member is $9.97 per month.

As a Gold member, you can email 3,000 members every 3 days. This comes at a cost of $35.97 per month.

The Platinum member comes with the same feature as the Gold member and has some additional features. Key features are here, that you don’t receive mail from other user and you have 2.100 text and banner ads for every month. You have to pay $45.97 every month to be a Platinum member.

From a Gold membership, you can upgrade to the Diamond membership with additional $24.97 per month. As a diamond member, you can email up to 6.000 random members every 3 days.

The highest membership is the Elite membership. Here you can also email up to 6.000 random members every 3 days. In addition, you get 5.000 text and banner ads every month.

You can also buy credits for mailing or banner ads. For 6.000 emails you have to pay $9.97.

Does it work?

I believe that ViralUrl is one of the best strategies to build an email list. Because when you start with email marketing you have no leads at the beginning. And it takes a lot of time to build a huge email list. With ViralUrl you have access to a huge email list and you can send out over 3,000 emails every 3 days.

The effectiveness of viral mailer depends on the quality of your headlines. The members of ViralUrl get between 5 and 20 emails per day so you need a really compelling headline so they will open your email.

Offering a free present is usually a good idea. I tried it myself and with the headline “My present for you, {firstname}!” I was able to generate over 50 clicks. From these 50 clicks, 10 converted into sign ups.

I paid about $5 to send this mail to over 3.000 random members. That means I had to pay $1 for 10 clicks or $0.10 per click. That is very good. Also, I pay $0.5 per sign up! That is an incredible value. If you are now able to sell one single affiliate product worth $10 you already doubled your investment.

If you are now able to sell one single affiliate product worth $10 you already doubled your investment.

Now think about how much money you could make with the “Gold” membership where you can send out 3,000 emails every 3 days. That’s over 350,000 emails per year! With 3 sales over $300, you already refinanced your investment.

I use the “Gold” membership and I can totally recommend it to everyone. I believe it’s one of the best strategies to build your list.

As you can see, viral mailing has some huge potential. If you are able to write a good headline and have a product with a good conversion you can earn a lot of money and build your email list.

The downside

One disadvantage is that you receive emails from other users. You can either upgrade your membership or use another account for that.

In addition, viral mailing looks very costly. But the costs can be very fast refinanced if you are able to sell your product or your affiliate product. Also if you calculate how much you pay per mail that is less than 1 cent!

So I think there is not much downside. Also, you can’t lose much because you can claim your membership for free (click here)

Conclusion

Is viralurl.com a scam? No, it is definitely not!

If you don’t already have a huge email list viralurl.com is a huge opportunity to promote your website or product. If you have a good conversion, also the premium memberships aren’t very expensive. This can be a really great opportunity for all marketers and affiliates.

I’m using the gold membership and I use it to generate leads. It is a very simple way to build a huge email list.

Have you made experiences with viralurl.com? Or are you using any different viral mailer? I would love to hear from you so leave a comment below 🙂

Reasons to start an online business

Today I will show you my top reasons why you should start your own online business. When I started I wasn’t sure if online marketing is the right thing for me but now I’m absolutely sure. I can live the life I always wanted to and I have enough spare time to spend it with meeting my friends, exercising or reading. Sometimes it can be really challenging but it is absolutely worth the effort.

Being your own boss

Do you like your boss? In many cases, the answer is no. If you don’t like your job or your boss you can do three different things:

a) you can live with it

b) you can change your current job

c) you can start being your own boss

So if you want to have a change you either have to change your job or start your own business with yourself as a boss. I always wanted to start my own company and be my own boss. So I can come in when I want, take a vacation whenever I want and best of all I can do whatever I want. I don’t have to do tasks that are meaningless.

If you start building your online business you can be your own boss. Of course, you still have to work but you have freedom. You are free from a job you don’t like and a boss you don’t want to work with.

Solid income

Earning good money while not working too much sounds unachievable. It sounds more like a dream. It seems like, that most of the people who earn solid money have to work a lot. So they have a lot of money but they don’t have much time. I always dreamed earning good money and having time to enjoy my life. And I found a way to achieve both. This way is online marketing.

At the beginning, it was a lot of work to get my business running but once it was running good I had much more time to enjoy my life. To travel around the globe. To meet with friends. And I also earn solid money.

I’m earning the same money my colleagues do, but only working half of the time. And there is no limit how much you can earn. There are bloggers out there who earn more than $100.000 each month. That’s incredible, isn’t it? And the best part is that you don’t have to work for money.

You have to work on your business and your business earns money for you. In online marketing, it is possible that you earn money while sleeping or going on vacation. So you can take a day off and still earn money. That is a fantastic feeling!

But I have to warn you, the success is not coming overnight. You have to work constantly on your business until it earns enough money. But once you reached this time you can live your life however you want to!

Time independent

Let me ask you a question, do you like being stuck in traffic? I guess you don’t. Nobody likes it. But since you leave work mostly the same time like everyone else you don’t have a choice. You will have a choice when you have your own online business. With your own business, you are much more time independent.

You will have a choice when you have your own online business. With your own business, you are much more time independent. You can go shopping whenever you want, you can exercise whenever you want and you can watch every match of your favorite club.

And in my opinion, the best part is that you can stand up whenever you want. If you don’t like standing up early in the morning you don’t have to. You can sleep as long as you want.

You can choose when you want to work or you want to do something else.

Location independent

As I already mentioned, if you have an online business you don’t need to drive every morning to work. You also never have to be somewhere to work. You can work from anywhere, you only need an internet connection. So you can work from home, the coffee shop or the hotel lobby. You can also work from your balcony looking at your city. Or you could work at the beach with the sound of breaking waves.

This is a part of online marketing I really love. Because when I feel stuck I leave my current place and go somewhere else. Maybe I continue my article sitting in the park. Or maybe I finish my article sitting in a coffee shop while drinking an iced coffee.

There are endless possibilities you only need to take the chance. I once wrote an article while sitting on a bench looking at the mountains. This was an incredible feeling. And I’m still excited that I can work from nearly anywhere.

Working on your passion

Work will be always something we don’t enjoy, right? I thought so many years. But when I stumbled across online marketing I had to change my opinion on that. Because now I was not only working for money, no I was working with my hobbies and interests. I work with topics I feel very passionate about. I don’t have the sad feeling on a Sunday that I have to work tomorrow, no I’m really excited. I’m excited to stand up in the morning and have a look at my business.

And I really enjoy every minute working on it. Life is too short to work on something you don’t enjoy. In this context I always remember this quote from  Steve Jobs:

Work will fill a large part of your life and the only way be truly satisfied is to love what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet keep looking. Don’t settle. – Steve Jobs

Whenever I hear this quote I’m touched. When I discovered online marketing and I created my first business I felt very passionate. And I still do. Every time I think about it I feel a power inside of me. And this keeps me going, in spite of every problem I’m challenging. If you want to work with passion you need to find your passion. And why not by starting an online business?

Low entry cost

Let’s say you made the decision to open your first business. Depending on your business you need to buy furniture, you have to invest in machines or you have to rent property. So you need a lot of money to start. Either you have the money on your own or you have to borrow some money. But what if I told you that you can start a business at very low cost.

In online marketing, you can start your business for as low as $2.75 per month. You can also start for free at Wealthy Affiliate. You also need a laptop or tablet and an internet connection. That is everything! Then you need to put in the work and write content. If you don’t have the time you can outsource that but you don’t have to. That means the entry costs of creating an online business is so low, that it is more expensive to drink coffee at Starbucks! 🙂

You only need to take the first step and start.

Future-proof

Online marketing is a future-proof workplace. Think about it, how much time are you spending on the internet? With mobile phones, it is even easier to access the internet. Also, there will be spent much more money online in the future. Think about companies like Facebook, Uber, Snapchat or Airbnb. Have a look at the net worth of this company. These are all companies who offer online services.

Online marketing is a billion dollar business. And you can have a piece of the cake, too. You only need to take the first step and start. If you have a solid online business you never have to worry again, trust me!

As you can see there are many good reasons to start an online business. What are you waiting for? Just take the first step and build your first online business. I never regret my decision to start and I still love the journey.

What do you think? Do you agree or disagree with me? Or maybe you have an additional point. I would love to hear your opinion, so please leave a comment below 🙂

How to create a website easily in 30 seconds (Including video proof)

Today you will learn how to create yourself a website in only 30 seconds. Together with a website, you can start earning money and creating the lifestyle you always wanted!

To build your website at first you need to choose a web hoster. There are many different good web hosters like SiteRubix or Bluehost.

In SiteRubix you can create free websites with a <yourwebsite>.siterubix.com domain. If you want to use your own domain you need to access a premium account. The premium account also unlocks the classrooms of Wealthy Affiliate (see my review here).

Bluehost is one of the top web hosting companies and you can host your website for as low as $2.75 per month. If you have already some knowledge and a low budget I would recommend you to use Bluehost. If you have no experience at all SiteRubix will be your better choice!

Today I will show you how to use SiteRubix because you can use it for free and its easier to set up a website. This is great of you want to play around a little bit.

Step 1: choose a domain

At first, you need to choose yourself a domain. Don’t think about it too much. Your domain should be easy to read and if possible to be catchy. If you mix up around 2-3 words this should be enough.

If you mix up around 2-3 words about the main topic this should be enough. Let’s say you want to create a website for people who want to learn fishing. “learnfishing.com” or “learntofish.com” could be two possible domains.

Now that you have chosen your domain, try if it is still available:

If it is available click on “Build it Now” and you will be transferred to the SiteRubix homepage.

The next thing you need to do is to fill out the form with your name and a password. As I said, everything is free so you don’t need to pay for anything.

As I already mentioned as a free member you can only choose a domain with “.siterubix.com” as a domain name. But this is totally sufficient for now so just click on “A Free Website” to continue.

Step 2: Name of your website

Now you have to enter the name of your website. This can be for example: “Learn how to fish”.

But don’t worry about the name you can change this as often as you want.

Step 3: Design of your website

The next step is to choose a design for your web page. As a free member, there is a small choice of different design. As a premium member, you have access to over 1.000 professional designs.

You can click on “demo” and try out every single design if you want to.

Many people think that design is the most important part of a successful web page but this is not true. More important is your content and whether it is interesting or not.

I give you an example, do you think Reddit is so successful because of the design? No of course not, Reddit is successful because of the content. And that should be your number one focus on building an online business.

Step 4: Create your website

The last step is to create your website. If you have picked your domain, name, and design of your website you can click on “I’m ready, Build My Website Now!”. Now your website will be created and is online now.

Congrats! This is your first step to start building your online business.

Work with your website

Now that you have created your first website let’s have a look how you can work with it. You should now have in front of you the SiteRubix manager.

You can now press “Log in” and you will see all the users of your website. At the moment there is only the user “admin” so press “Login now” and you will come to your website.

You now see the dashboard of your side. This is the view as an admin. If you want to see your side from the view as a visitor click on the upper left corner on the name of your website and “visit now”.

You can come back by clicking again on the left upper corner on your website name and “dashboard”.

In the dashboard, you can administer all your posts, pages, comments, and so on. If you want you can start by writing an “About Me” page or write your first post.

If you want to learn all the basics about WordPress and how to start earning money with your brand new website I recommend you to visit Wealthy Affiliate. As a SiteRubix user, you already have a free account and you are able to visit some of the classrooms. There is also a community of over 800.000 users and many of them already earn good money online.

And as I already mentioned you can keep working with your free account. You don’t have to pay for anything!

Video Proof

As I promised here is the video proof how to create a website in 30 seconds or less:

In this article, I showed you how to build your first online website in only 5 minutes. If you have followed all the steps congratulations! You have created your first website.

Your website is the foundation for everything you will do in the future. You can be very proud of yourself. You have done more than most of the people by taking the first step.

Easyhits4u review – How to earn money

Have you heard from EasyHits4u.com? On their website, they promote it as the number one tool for getting massive traffic. But is that really true? So I gave it a try and now I want to you help in your decision, whether you should use this program or not.

In this review, I will show you all the advantages and disadvantages of using EasyHits4U and tell you whether it is a scam or not.

How does it work?

EasyHits4U works very easy. For every credit, you get one visitor on your page. You can either buy credits or earn credits. To earn credits you have to visit another website for 20 seconds. If you have the premium package you only need to stay 15 seconds on a website and with the ultimate package you have to stay for at least 10 seconds.

If you buy the premium package or the ultimate package you get credits every month. You can spend your credits on any website you want. Also, you can convert your credits into banner and text ad. These will be shown other users using EasyHits4U.

Costs

One of the best things about EasyHits4U is that you can start for free. In addition, the premium package only costs 7.95$ per month and is really cheap in my opinion.

But at first, let’s have a look at the free package. With the free package you don’t get any credits, so you either have to buy or earn credits. Also, you have to wait 20 seconds per website to earn one credit.

In the Premium package, you get 500 credits, 2000 banner and 2500 banner ad impressions per month. These are 500 sure visits on your website plus depending on the conversion of your banners some extra views.

And also there is the Ultimate package, where you get 1000 credits, 5000 banner and 5000 text impressions per month. And again, depending on the conversion of your adds some extra views.

There are also different credit packages. I will not go into detail here, but there are several different packages for every purpose.

I’m using the ultimate package myself so I don’t recommend you anything I don’t use myself

Does it work?

I wanted to give it a try and bought 500 credits for 4$. I tried different things and converted some in text ads so I invested 172 credits for my website.

About 3 hours hour later I had the following result (source: google analytics)

So for every credit, I had one visit on my website, so it does work!

How to make money

There are two different possibilities to earn money with EasyHits4U.

Earn money by surfing

With the help of EasyHits4U, you can earn money by visiting websites. With every website visited you earn credits you can convert into real money.

This is a very easy and fast method to earn some additional money. I don’t think you can get rich with this method. However, it is a good method if you have a lot of time and you need some additional money.

Earn money by getting traffic

As I already mentioned you can buy traffic with EasyHits4U. You can buy or earn credits and use them to get guaranteed traffic. By sending your traffic to a landing page and getting leads you can earn money with email marketing.

I don’t think you can make much money by sending them to different sales pages. Generate leads and them market to them.

I use this method regularly to generate new leads and to grow my email list. (See here why you should grow an email list)

The Upside

With the help of EasyHits4U, you can generate traffic very fast. Within minutes you can generate traffic. I believe it is by far the fastest method to get traffic.

In addition, the traffic is very cheap. You get 1,000 credits for $5,95 and this is equal to 1,000 clicks. That means you pay around 0,5 cents per click! In PPC you usually pay around 30-50 cents per click.

I don’t think you can get traffic any cheaper. I use it to send the traffic to my landing page and I get sign ups regularly. For a sign-up, I pay between 10 and 30 cents and that is very low!

The Downside

As you may think the downside is that you get a lot of unqualified traffic. And this is the reason why many don’t use EasyHits4U. And yes there is a lot of traffic not interested in your site but there are always people who are interested in your site.

Whatever niche your website is in, you will always have people who are interested. Of course, that doesn’t work if you send them to your blog, you should send them to a landing page where they can leave their email address.

With this strategy, you can build your email list very quickly. So I think there is not much downside.

Conclusion

Is EasyHits4U a scam? No, it isn’t. As I described, it really helps you to get traffic on your website. I can recommend it to everyone who wants to build an email list very fast.

I don’t recommend anything to people I don’t use myself. I have the ultimate membership and I use EasyHits4U regularly to generate new leads. You give it a try for free click here!

Have you tried programs like EasyHits4U? What have been your thoughts?

Have a nice day!

The number one keyword tool

Do you want to create a new blog article, but you don’t have any ideas? Or maybe do you want to know how your side is ranked in google. Or you want to know the quality of a keyword.

If you have struggled with these topics I’m happy to help you. For all these tasks I use Jaaxy. Jaaxy is a keyword tool which is very useful for online entrepreneurs. In the following, I will show you how Jaaxy can help you.

Keywords

Let’s say you want to write an article about earning money at home. So I enter “earning money online” in Jaaxy and I get the following results:

So the keyword “earn money online” has about 4k counts in traffic. Important is also the QSR value. QSR describes the “Quoted Searched Results”. The higher the value the more sites are ranked in google together with this keyword. So the lower the better.

Also, you can see on the first sight the KQI, which describes the keyword quality index. There are three different colors, green for good, yellow for OK and red for poor. So for example “earn money online” would be “OK” as a keyword. If you use “earn money easy online” the quality index would be better. But also there is not that much traffic.

Why don’t you give it a try yourself? Just enter any keyword below and you will see your results:

It’s great, isn’t it? I use this tool a lot to find new keywords. But Jaaxy can do a lot more.

Site Rank

Didn’t you always want to know, how good your website is ranked in google? This can also be done in Jaaxy.

All you have to do is entering your URL and a specific keyword. Then you get the following results:

The results, show the position of your website and the page on google your website can be found. So in this example, the URL can be found on the second page of google.

For me, this is great to watch the progression of my website. I check in every day to hopefully see my position climbing.

Alphabet Soup Search

If you have trouble finding new topics for articles the alphabet soup search can help you. You can also do this without Jaaxy but it is much easier with. Let’s say you want to write something about the keyword “how to sell” but you don’t have enough content. So you can enter “how to sell” in google and add an “a”:

As you can see, maybe you want to write something about how to sell a product. Then you can continue with “how to sell”  + “b” and there you get other ideas. This can be done until you reach “z”. This can also do Jaaxy for you.

All you have to do is entering a keyword and Jaaxy finds you the results for “a”, “b” and so on.

Costs

The great thing about Jaaxy is that you can try it out for free! If you register for free you can try up to 30 different searches. If you like Jaaxy you can upgrade your account for 19$ per month. 

In the Pro-Upgrade you have unlimited keyword searches and more results in the Alphabet Soup Search.

So for trying out the free program is absolutely sufficient. Later on, you maybe need to upgrade to Pro but 19$ is really cheap for such a good tool in my opinion!

Now I want to have your opinion! Have you given Jaaxy a try or are you using any other Keyword tool? I would love to hear from you so please leave a comment below 🙂

Best regards,

4 Important Ways to Earn Money Online

Who doesn’t want to earn some extra money? Maybe you need more money to buy the clothes you always wanted. Or maybe you want to eat whatever you want and not always choose the cheapest.

There are endless possibilities nowadays to earn money online. Why earn money online? Well for me that is a simple question, I want to choose the place and the time I want to work. On the one hand that helps me escaping the boring 9-5 principle and on the other side I don’t loose a lot time being stucked in traffic.

But if you google “earn money online” you get over 282 million results. That looks like a lot of different possibilities to me. And there are many different systems or programs out there who want to help you to earn money online.

I tried many different things, some with more success than others. So I want to share my experience with you and help you to earn some extra money online.

Freelancer

You can get paid by writing blog articles, translating documents or creating logos or designs. There are many different projects you can work on as a freelancer. There are also projects for developers. Whatever it is I’m sure you can find something here.

You can get paid by hours or you get a budget for the project. This is a great opportunity for people who want to be self-employed and their own boss. It is also a great opportunity for people who want to have a logo designed or an article written.

Create your own product

You can also create your own product and sell it online. That can be a digital product like a pdf or a video or a physical product like a sweater or beer.

Usually creating a physical product is more expensive and risky. You need to find someone who produces and your product and if no one buys your product your investment is thrown away. Also you need to take care of the shipping and the support etc.

Creating a digital product can get you good money in a short amount of time. But still you need to create the product and take care of the marketing. If you already have experience with marketing and selling stuff this can be a great opportunity for you.

Affiliate Marketing

If you don’t want to create your own product you can also get paid by selling products from partners. Every time you sell the product you get a commission. This can range from 5% up to 80%. And there are affiliate programs everywhere. Even amazon has an affiliate program.

Affiliate marketing can be very powerful. Think about it, what are you doing before you buy a product. You read the ratings on amazon and you search the web for reviews. If you find a review with a postive evaluation you are gonna buy the product.

If that review was written by you and the customer buys the book you get a commission. The commission from a sold book may be not that high but think about how many books are sold every day. And think about how many people are searching for recommendations. There is really a huge market here!

Blogging

You can also start earning money with a blog. All you need is traffic and some strategy to earn money. Strategies can be advertisement or affiliate marketing.

But the most important thing is traffic. There are many different ways to get traffic but you need some quality content so that the traffic stays on your side and comes back. So you need well written can content rich articles your audience likes.

These are only four different possibilities. And I think you can guess that there are many more. But for me these are the most important and also legal ways to earn money online.

I hope you now have an overview how to earn money online. Maybe earning money online is the right thing for you.

I know it is the right thing for me. Building on my own business, being my own boss and earning solid money. These are all reasons for me to stay in online marketing and maybe you also want to give it a try. (see here my #1 recommendation) .

Now its your turn! Do you know different ways than the described? Or do you have a question or feedback? I would be happy to hear from you so please leave a comment below 🙂

2018 Wealthy Affiliate Review (Inclusive bonus)

Today I’ll show you my experience with Wealthy Affiliate. There are many scams out there when it comes to “earning money online”.

But is Wealthy Affiliate one of them? Read now my review and get a bonus at the end of the article!

What is the Wealthy Affiliate University?

Wealthy Affiliate is an online community with over 800,000 online entrepreneurs. All of them have the goal to build a sustainable online business with their passion. There are also many already successful entrepreneurs who make a full income with their online business.

The goal of the community is to help everybody to earn money with their passion. Task-driven lectures help you to learn while creating your first online business. 24/7 live support and the community will help you in every question you will have. In addition, there are weekly live classes about different topics in online marketing.

Costs

You can join Wealthy Affiliate for free. This is the best option for every newbie or anyone who wants to give it a try. With a free account, you can host up to 2 websites and in the first 7 days you get live help. For me, this was the best option to have a look at it without paying anything.

If the starter account is not enough for you and you want to have more access to the classrooms you can go to premium. Premium costs 49$/month or 359$/year. You can cancel your membership every month and there are no hidden costs. 359$ per year sounds a lot but this is less than 1$ per day. This is less than you pay for a coffee!

In addition, I think 359$ per year for so much information is very cheap. Think about how much you have to pay for college! Compared to college this price is really a joke. And in WA there are so many different classrooms and lectures you can work through.

How does it work?

Wealthy Affiliate helps you build your first online business with your passion. If you follow the tasks you will learn how to find a fitting niche for you, how to get traffic and how to earn money with it. This will all happen step by step with walkthrough videos.

Wealthy affiliate takes care of the hosting of your domains so you can focus on working on your business.

But of course, it is your job to get your business running. You have to keep working on it and someday you will make enough money to work from home. This is not a “get rich quick” scheme. This is for everyone who wants to build a sustainable online business.

Have you ever heard this quote:

if you found work you love you never have to work again

This is why at Wealthy Affiliate you can build your business around your passion. If you have a passion for skiing you can build your online business around skiing. If you have a passion for books you can build your online business around books.

To get your business running you have to put in the work, but if you work with your passion it’s not work anymore. Well yes, it is work but it is work that makes fun. This is that kinda work what wants you to stand up early in the morning to work on your business.

Restricted Countries

It is important to mention that the free membership is not available for every country. The reason for that (according to the owner) is that there is a lot of spam or fraud from these countries. The list of banned countries are the following:

1. Bangladesh
2. Egypt
3. India
4. Nigeria
5. Pakistan
6. Philippines
7. Vietnam

If you are living in one of these countries but you still want to become a successful online entrepreneur you have two options.

• Option A: You can start as a premium member. Yes, you have to pay to give it a try, but if you want to join Wealthy Affiliate this is your only chance.
• Option B: You can create a free membership at Affilorama. Affilorama is like Wealthy Affiliate an online training program for those who want to become online entrepreneurs. There you can create a free membership from every country. If you want to know more have a look at my review.

Conclusion

I’m now a member of the Wealthy Affiliate Community for over half a year now and I never regretted my decision. At the beginning, there has been so much information that I felt a little overwhelmed but there are so many people who help you and the structured classes are really helping to focus on building your first profitable online business.

Wealthy Affiliate is definitely no scam or an untrustworthy website! There are always people who think it doesn’t work, but that is wrong. They often didn’t try it themselves or failed. And in Wealthy Affiliate, you can only fail if you stop. Sometimes it takes more time to get your business running, but if you manage to stay motivated and follow the tips of the community you will succeed!

Your Bonus

Because I want to help you to work on your dream I want to offer you a small bonus. After creating your account I get a huge discount on your first premium month! Instead of $49, the first month costs you only $19! To claim your bonus you have to create your account and I will contact you personally on how to claim your bonus.

You can cancel your subscription after the first month, no questions asked and you only have to pay for the first month. So you can give it a try for a whole month for as less as $19 and then decide, whether you want to keep working on your first online business or do something else.

I hope to see you soon on Wealthy Affiliate 🙂

I hope that you liked my review of Wealthy Affiliate. For me, this was/is a great opportunity to earn good money while going to college. In addition, I don’t have to search for a job after my graduation because I already know that I will be an online entrepreneur.

Some of my fellow students asked me if I can help them and they all starting to make their own online businesses. It is always great to see how happy people are working on their passion. I hope you can someday work with passion because life is too short for a boring or unsatisfying job!
