OUR STORY

ABOUT US

BACKGROUND

My name is Bill and I worked for DOD contractors on Wake Island for over 32 year time period in a variety of aviation positions. I have a Commercial Pilot license with Instrument Rating. I am currently retired and interested in making some money in an Online business. My wife, Sue is a retired RN. She has been in the healthcare field for over 30 years.

OUR GOAL IS TO HELP YOU ATTAIN YOUR GOALS

When we retired from our respective careers, we found we needed extra income as there was no retirement plan from DOD contractors (remember – lowest bid!) and nursing companies. We tried various “Home Businesses” from MLM companies to internet marketing training plans. All promised the “moon” but most delivered very little.

When I discovered Wealthy Affiliates I was skeptical at first. I wasn’t too excited about getting into another “bust.” But when I saw that you didn’t have to invest anything to find out what it was all about; I figured it was worth a try to see what they had to offer.

After signing on with them at the Starter Level, which is free, I saw that they started with training step #1 instead of step #55 (which is what many companies do…starting at Step #55). I knew virtually nothing about SEO, websites internet marketing, and neither did my wife.

We started out together (with the approval of the founder, Kyle) and have worked together in learning all these things about Affiliate Marketing. There is so much more that Wealthy Affiliates teaches than the just basics but that is what we needed. At Wealthy Affiliates you go from the Basics to the Advanced.

Now one or two teachers could not know everything about this business. This is where the WA Community comes in. These are very friendly members of the WA Community who have been around a while with WA and or have had vast experience in the Internet and Internet Marketing.  Are they being paid to be helpful and friendly?  The main reason the community is the way they are (very Friendly) is there is no competition amount the members.

The experienced members of the WA Community have learned much of their expertise at WA and now share this knowledge with the rest of the Community. This is why there is so much more training you can receive as a Premium member.

The Wealthy Affiliate Community is a fun area as you can make friends within the group who can help you whether it is technical or just plain encouragement when things get a little blue.  The WA community can answer any of your questions you might have.  In other programs, “Silence” is what we got when we asked a question.  This is not true at Wealthy Affiliate.  Questions will be answered by Commun9itsy members in hours ( sometimes in minutes)

WE HAVE FOUND OUR HOME! WE HOPE YOU WILL TOO!

The Good and the Bad of Wealthy Affiliate

PERSONAL REVIEW

I would like to give a personal review of the good and the bad at Wealthy Affiliate.  In the past 7 years plus, I have been with Wealthy Affiliate as a Premium Member, it has indeed been a great privilege to see how the system works.  The owner Kyle and Carson have shown great integrity and honesty that is not part of many other training platforms.

This I know as my wife and I have been scammed by many so-called affiliate and internet training platforms.  Not only are the owners very conscientious to their members, but they are also developing new tools of business for our use.

The Good

1. World-Class training on affiliate marketing and the workings of the             Internet.
2. 50 free websites (Premium Members). (Small annual hosting fee)
3. Jaaxy Keyword Research Tool.
4. Free Webinars.
5. The friendly Wealthy Affiliate Community can be like a helpful family.
6. Fantastic Site Support which many times correct a site problem in minutes.
7. Live Chat where questions can be answered on the spot.
8. Many other great features such as incentives (the Las Vegas trip for awarded for WA promotions), continuous efforts by Kyle and Carson to better the great features we have now, the opportunity to share with the WA Community success, failures (ugh), questions, and ideas.

The Bad

Let me see now I am sure there is something I could complain about. Mmmmm, let me think for a minute or so. Nope, for the life of me, I can’t come up with one complaint. Must be something, unless when I have to sign off from Wealthy Affiliate for meals or bedtime I am disappointed to leave this wonderful experience.

This can be a very special and wonderful experience for you in learning how to improve your future with the meaningful knowledge offered by Wealthy Affiliate

How To Make a Website in Less Then 5 Minutes

Introduction

The definition of a website is slightly complex and a little confusing: “A website is a collection of related web pages including multimedia content typically identified with a common domain name and published on at least one server” So let’s take any confusion or mystery out of the term “website”. A website is where you “publish” any articles you create to be seen by visitors on the WWW or web.server.

Why is a Website Necessary?

In years past, if a person wanted to go into business for themselves they first had to seek out a store or perhaps an office to operate out if the product was more of a mobile type such as encyclopedias or maybe brushes.

The typical startup costs for a “brick-and-mortar” store were usually from $50,000 on up. Depending on the product to be sold and the person selling, the cost of a start-up was beyond the average person’s means.  As I mentioned earlier, you could sell books, brushes, and cosmetics as a “home business”

In most cases, the profit line was pretty thin and except for the very hardy and aggressive types, the ” door-to-door” sales routine discouraged many a participant. Today “door-to-door sales” attempts are many times banned from gated communities or just outright dangerous in our less-than-friendly society.

How can you conduct business in our world today without a large investment or sacrificing safety? The answer is the Internet or the “Web”. An Internet business can be run from the comfort and safety of your home.

So what is the source used to conduct this business, it is called a website. Without a website, there are few ways to do business on the Internet.

First of all, I will take the liberty and assumption that you already have a computer of some sort. There are “Smart Phones”,  tablets, and other electronic devices,  but a desktop or laptop computer is really the best way to do any business online.

So we can now assume you have that computer. The next thing necessary to conduct an internet business is a website. How do you use a website?

Now there are tons of recreational uses on the internet such as social media sites, games, chat groups, news sites, informational sites, and many more that you don’t need a website for.

In the business realm, however, you need a website for selling a product or being partners with a company whose product you can advertise on your website and receive a commission for each sale that comes from your website. This is called affiliate marketing.

How to Make Money at Home Online

Introduction:  How to Make Money at Home Online

Have you ever thought about how nice it would be to work at home?  Are you tired of that daily commute, long or small?

Then when you get to that worksite you have to endure that cranky, demanding boss, hostile co-workers, and boring job.  But hold on, you might say, I like my job,  it is exciting and meaningful, my boss is a sweetheart, and my co-workers are my best friends.

Let’s look at something else.  It doesn’t matter that much if you like or hate your job, don’t mind that long or short commute every day, all of us could use some extra cash, couldn’t we?

When you work at home, you are the “boss”, you set your schedule, work as long as you want or short as you want, and have all the comforts of your home.  Working at home can be part-time or with a full-time goal in mind.

Before we go on any further, I want to say this is not a “get-rich-over-night” scheme.  It will take time and some effort on your part.  But the prospect of having your own business and being your boss can be very satisfying.

How to Work From Home and Earn a Income

Introduction

Have you ever thought how nice it would be to work at home and earn an income? No more gut-wrenching commute to work and back home.  Besides travel expenses, you have a wardrobe to consider.  Then there is being away from the family for a least 8 hours a day with a full-time job.  Is your boss an old crank, the work boring, and the working conditions not so good?

How could I earn a living at home”? Isn’t working at home just trying to sell something like soap or cosmetics? I don’t like direct selling! I have heard of MLM companies (Multi-Level Marketing), but that is not for me.” “My neighbor got me involved in that  one time and I didn’t do very well.”

It is true that MLM businesses require you to sell something.  It also is true that most MLMs require an upfront investment for products or just to join their organization.  This could cost from a few hundred $$ to even several thousand $$

So what other options are there to make money online?  You could try selling on eBay.  That also involves investing money in drop-shippers and selling expenses on eBay.

You could try direct selling in which you must find a wholesaler and build an inventory and advertise on your website (if you have one) and hope you can sell your inventory.

There is a better way that doesn’t involve direct sales or worse “cold” sales which are calls you have to make to someone you don’t know.  It is called affiliate marketing.  You don’t even need a product to sell, no inventory, no storage, none of that.

All you need is to partner with an affiliate company, an example is Amazon.com and Walmart. com, Target.com, and many others. There are many others you can affiliate with too. They take care of the orders, do the shipping and pay you a commission because you are “advertising” for them through your website.

“What could I put on my website that would attract readers and followers?” Let me ask you this, do you have a passion for life like golf, child care, antique cars, aviation, healthcare, personal development, outdoor activities like hunting and fishing, etc.?

Just think about what is the thing you like to do if you didn’t have to work. Why not take your passion or niche, which is something you love to do, and use it to make money? Your niche is what your website would be all about.

How to Build Your Own Internet Business


Hawaii-HNL

Introduction

Have you ever thought of working at home in a full-time or even part-time position?     Are you tired of the drudgery at work?  Does your boss appreciate you?

Maybe you really do love your job and don’t plan to quit.  Could you use some extra cash to make that vacation dream come true?  Or maybe you just need that extra cash to make ends meet.  So how do I build an online business?  Please read on.

Even if your company is pretty safe from job force reduction, wouldn’t it be nice to be able to pay off those credit card debts?  How about replacing that run-down sofa the kids have battered?  A few extra hundred $$$ a month would be great, wouldn’t it?  Whatever the reason, I think almost all of us could use an extra $$$.

So how do you go about getting that extra cash? A part-time job? That means more hours away from home plus commuting,  even if it is only a few miles.  Sometimes an extra job can be very costly in terms of family relationships plus the expense of commuting, maybe work clothes, and other expenses.

Earn Residual Income at Home

Introduction

Are you just starting out or have already said goodbye to the “daily 9-5 grind”?  Whichever it is, you need to earn residual income from home during the retirement years.

Now for some of you folks, that is probably the farthest thing from your mind as you complicate careers, where to live, getting established in the community,  planning a family, and a million and one other things.

Retirement time does seem like  “a thing” in the distant future.  The wise couple will soon realize in most cases,  a company may not have a retirement plan (residual income) of any kind.

Your company may have a 401K or something similar that you can invest in because so many straight pension plans have gone by the wayside in these current economic times.  The average person may change jobs several times during their working career. Usually, the 401K stays with the company (your share is yours, of course) so what are you left with?  It is not a happy thought.

What about stocks?  Even true expert investors fall on their faces,  sometimes.  I don’t know about you, I sometimes think the stock market could be about as reliable as going to a casino and giving them your money.

So what is the answer to retirement income that will more likely to be there when you retire?   Read on!
