THANKS FOR SWINGING BY TO MY WEALTHY AFFILIATE REVIEW!

Change can be scary.
I know because I was caught up in the world of Warrior Forum and watched people get ‘cyberbullied’ because they asked ‘newbie’ questions or gave honest opinions about things.
But I want you to take a moment and think about the last time you had a positive experience inside the Warrior Forum? Or how about a comparison of positive experiences with negative experiences within the forum. If you have experienced or even witnessed an abusive post within there, then that is one too many. Why would you want to be part of something that gives out bad learning mojo?

Let me ask you this..
Have you ever made any money from any of the Warrior Special Offers (WSO) you’ve purchased in the past?
Or how much money have you spent to earn your first dollar?
In my opinion, you shouldn’t have to purchase training everytime you need it nor should you have to rely on fancy pants sales letters to determine if the ‘product’ is any good. And that is what Affiliate Resources is about.. letting you see the truth of these WSO Scams.
With Wealthy Affiliate, you have full access to all the training 24/7 and have access to the awesome community in the forms of chat, private messages or classrooms which is a modern update to the antiquated forum. There is no upsells, no ads and no cyberbulling within Wealthy Affiliate. The training comes in several formats including full certification courses, live training and video based training.
Can you get that inside Warrior Forum? Not even close.

A BRIEF HISTORY OF WEALTHY AFFILIATE

Wealthy Affiliate started in 2005 as a simple keyword list membership website. Quickly the owners Kyle and Carson (who have been successful affiliates since 2002) of British Columbia Canada learned that there not only was a huge demand for these lists, but also training on how to use them.
That same year, they started a membership forum for people to access the training and support. As time went by, more and more features within Wealthy Affiliate were added and people came in masses for the training and support.
Today, Wealthy Affiliate has a ton of awesome features that include keyword research tool, website builder and hosting. But before I get into the details of all the tools and features, let’s look at the Pros and Cons.

THE PROS OF WEALTHY AFFILIATE

• Up to Date Training: All the training inside Wealthy Affiliate is top notch and always being updated. It is very easy to follow and has discussion areas for any questions that may arise.
• Awesome Community Support: I am blown away at how amazing the support system is. There are several ways to get help within Wealthy Affiliate; live chat, private messaging, discussions and live Q & A sessions.
• Beginner Friendly: There is no such thing as a dumb question inside WA and there are several beginner task based training courses.
• Website Hosting Included: There is no need to run out and buy web hosting as this is included. Unlimited sites for premium and 2 sites for starter accounts.
  Spam Free Environment: Unlike Warrior Forum, WA offers a welcoming training environment that doesn’t tolerate any negative behaviour.
  Success Stories: If you need some inspiration, WA has a great section which shows people attaining success on many different levels ranging from making their first website to replacing their job income with online marketing.

THE CONS OF WEALTHY AFFILIATE

• None: Wealthy Affiliate is the most comprehensive simple training community available

THE TRAINING AND TOOLS AVAILABLE

Certification Courses
The first moment you enter Wealthy Affiliate, the first level of training is placed in front of you. The Online Entrepreneur Certification – Getting Started (Level 1) is a 10 lesson course that walks you through the entire online business process for long term income. Regardless of your experience level, I recommend you jump into this training as it creates a great mindset for your online business journey.
There are 4 levels of the Online Entrepreneur Certification courses which are:

1. Getting Started (Level 1)
2. Building Your Own Traffic Producing Website (Level 2)
3. Making Money! (Level 3)
4. Mastering Social Engagement (Level 4)

Each of the course consist of 10 lessons, so there are a total of 40 Lessons within the Certification courses alone. There are no shiny objects, no affiliate links and no upsells within the training which is a nice change from what you may be used to within the Warrior Forum.

LIVE VIDEO CLASSES (WABINARS)

Each week, there is a live 60 minute training event called a WAbinar. That’s right.. WAbinar. Love the WA branding part of it! A new topic is delivered each week and at the end of the WAbinars, there is a live Q & A Session where you can ask the presenter questions related to that nights presentation. Also a nice feature within the WAbinars is that there are no upsells, affiliate links etc. at the end of the presentation. Certainly a nice change from what you’ve probably experienced in the past.
Here are a few reviews that outline what Wealthy Affiliate members think of the WAbinars.

If you miss the live training, no problem as they are recorded and posted within the members area so you can access them at any time.

THE TOOLS AND SERVICES

In my opinion, there are 4 main elements to an online business:

1. Niche & Research Research
2. Website Creation
3. Website Hosting
4. Content Creation

Wealthy Affiliate has tools and service that help you with all 4 elements and are included within your members area.
1) Niche & Research Research – There is a keyword and competition research tool that helps you discover niches, search volume and additional keyword ideas.
2) Website Creation – WordPress Express is a website building platform that creates your website in 3 clicks. Truly awesome!
3) Website Hosting – Unlimited website (cloud) hosting is included within your membership thus makes the website building process seamless. The hosting is stable and using state of the art technology.
4) Content Creation – Rapid Writer is a place where you can write and author your content while watching your targeted keyword density.

HOW MUCH DOES WEALTHY AFFILIATE COST?

There are 2 membership options within Wealthy Affiliate.

1. Starter Membership: $0
2. Premium Membership: $47 per month or $359 per year

I urge you to check out the Starter Membership as it gives you full access to everything offered inside Wealthy Affiliate. After 7 days, Your ability to Ask Questions and get live chat support ends but all the other features are still available.

COMPARING STARTER TO PREMIUM

Below is a comparison chart to see what is offered within the Starter membership and what you can get if you go Premium.

As you can see, the premium membership is essentially all you need to start your grow your online business. I challenge you to compare this with Warrior Forum and tell me that WF is better. Seriously, go ahead and let me know in the comments below.

MY PERSONAL CONCLUSION

I have been a member of Wealthy Affiliate since March 2007 and have NEVER looked back. As the direct result from the training and support offered in WA, I was able to quit my day job and replace that full time income with the money from my own online business.

Wealthy Affiliate works. The training, tools and support offered inside the premium membership is all you need to get your online business going. It doesn’t matter if you’re interested in affiliate marketing, SEO, local marketing or promoting your existing website or business – Wealthy Affiliate will help you get you to YOUR next level.

Swipe Vault Review

Wouldn't It Be Nice If There Was A Magical Place Where You Could Just "Swipe" What’s Working Now?

If that magical place actually existed, our lives would be infinitely better...

Wouldn’t it?

Of course it would!

You wouldn't have to waste your time and money trying to "figure out" what you need to do...

Just "let others" do all of the hard work for you, and when you’re ready, you simply swipe what’s working.

Well, this magical place didn't exist...

Until today.

Is it Your Lucky Day?!

SaleHoo Review

Salehoo: Best Place for Wholesale Distributors

 

This SaleHoo review describes how a strong community that brings together a large number of verified wholesale distributors and online sellers/retailers can help you find wholesale merchandise and then sell it for a profit on sites like eBay or other sites.

 

 

What Salehoo is all about – product overview

Not so long ago I had the pleasure to review SaleHoo and found that it is one of the best resources for finding wholesale distributors or wholesale merchandise for whatever your niche might be.
It’s true that when you are a beginner, trying to sell on eBay or Amazon it can be a bit intimidating.
To overcome these difficulties, a qualified help is more than welcome.
An online community like SaleHoo can help you by making available to you all the know-how and expertise you might need in order to be a successful online seller.
The members of the SaleHoo community make this place one of the most active places for wholesalers to find and share information, tips, knowledge, and best practices for people who buy and sell on the internet, and can help you to fully reach your potential.

 

Features of Salehoo

There are over 8000 verified wholesalers listed in SaleHoo, and these can give you access to wholesale merchandise in every imaginable industry or niche. In many cases, suppliers from SaleHoo will have a low minimum order, or no minimum order at all, which is very helpful especially for small business owners.
One of the features I like is how easy it is to search in SaleHoo to find what you need or what you are looking for. SaleHoo member reviews can give you feedback on suppliers you would like to use and these reviews can help you decide what supplier is best for your needs. You can easily find suppliers that will do drop shipping or international shipping for you.
There are two excellent ways to get help on SaleHoo if you need some advice: support staff is present for 10 hours a day, six days a week, reachable by phone or email, and of course, there is the very active forum where like-minded people share their knowledge, thoughts and offer help to those who ask for it.
A number of information guides are available for members. You will find information on how to get started, selling tips, dropshipping, profitable products, shipping info, some niche specific guides, how to find suppliers, etc.

 

Best Feature of Salehoo

Probably the best feature that SaleHoo offers is what they call Research Labs. By using this tool a lot of guesswork in your research work can be eliminated, because this is basically an education tool. Here you can find guidance on profitable niches, advice on how to write your listing, and very important, how to find reliable wholesale distributors. Here you can find information or advice even on matters like import duties or when to start and end your auctions (did you know that timing affects sales, and there are certain periods of time when people are more likely to buy?)

 

What I like most about Salehoo

What I particularly like about SaleHoo is the clean layout of the website and the way the site is organized. You can easily find your way around and usually the information you are looking for is only a few clicks away.

 

What I do not like or wish to improve about Salehoo

One thing that could be improved is that some of the articles could be a bit more to the point. I found that in some instances the information was either not so easy to follow or diluted. However, the variety of resources more than compensates for these shortcomings.

 

Pricing and Money back guarantee

Joining SaleHoo will cost you a $67 fee per year. The membership will get you access to the supplier directory, forum, customer support, training guides and the excellent research labs. They also offer what seems to be the norm these days for this kind of products, which is a full 100% money back 60 day guarantee.

 

SaleHoo Summary

The SaleHoo membership brings tremendous value for a very affordable price. Just be aware that just like with any product that deals with information (in this case lots of information!), there is a bit of a learning curve at the beginning. And to answer the question in the title, SaleHoo is in my opinion one of the best places to find wholesale distributors or wholesale merchandise for your on-line or off-line business.
