I’m not going to beat around the bush, so the answer is yes, it does. Wealthy Affiliate works and is legit. One thing you need to know, though, and which most online platforms don’t tell you is that the big earnings don’t come overnight. You do have to work for it, as in any other business.
The majority of online affiliate platforms forget to mention that. Instead they lure you in with false promises of big bucks that will come raining down on you from “day 1,” “after only one week“, or something like that, probably because they’re either scams or they could still be legit but bombarding you with upsells and giving you little value in return.
There’s nothing wrong with upsells, and I understand that it’s a marketing strategy, but I think that it’s preferable to see the full price of a package from the beginning, don’t you? Especially if a platform was designed to offer training or provide help to make you earn money.
If a product squeezes your wallet, the least you could expect is valuable training tutorials in exchange, right? As you probably know, it doesn’t always happen that way. And now you’re here, wondering about Wealthy Affiliate. Is it like the rest of the affiliate traps in the internet jungle or is this one for real?

I feel that Wealthy Affiliate is more than a product. It is a community of online entrepreneurs, a training platform and tools where we learn STEP BY STEP how to make money online, build your website, attract traffic and monetize it. I like that you can get and give help to each other and learn from industry experts.
Agreed! It is a great community of online entrepreneurs and an awesome training platform.
The Huge Huge advantages of joining the Wealthy Affiliate platform are the site support, community support, and feedback from other members, paid professionals, and the site owners themselves.
I am already a member and would have given up a long time ago if it wasn’t for all of this support.
Building a well-structured website takes time and a lot of knowledge, and then optimizing it so that it ranks highly in search engine results is something that you cannot do by yourself. However, with so many successful members who are willing to share how they have become successful, Wealthy Affiliate is definitely the place to come for a top-notch education….. at an extremely affordable price!
I am put off when others promise ‘quick’ results. Sure it may happen for a few people, but they are the exception rather than the rule. If anyone is serious about building a long-term profitable business, Wealthy Affiliate is the place to come!
Thank you, Andrew. I absolutely agree.
Wishing you much success on your online entrepreneur journey!
Christine,
I’ve seen a lot of affiliate marketing companies online offer up big bucks in just days like you mentioned. It usually comes with a pretty hefty price tag as well though. Of course, I suppose nothing in life is really free, especially when it comes to business. However, I’ve seen some that promise thousands, that also cost thousands as well. Usually those ones are the ones that claim you’ll get special links that you can blast all over social media in order to make money. These spammy links do tend to get on my nerves after a bit though.
I’ve seen some that blast 100’s of links even on my website, I guess in hopes that I’ll approve their random comments and post them on my site. Not happening! It seems that these are getting more and more prevalent these days too now.
I think it’s better to do business the right way. Earn your clients long term through trust and useful information. If that means a YouTube channel, a blog, or anything that where customers can come back is what counts.
Slow and steady wins the race! Thanks for this great review! Love Wealthy Affiliate, I have to say!

Hi Katrina,
I’ve also received such spammy comments that were loaded with links. I always mark them as spam and delete them.
Slow and steady wins the race, true! Fast and quick is just an empty promise.
Thank you for your comment!
Hi Christine,
People chase shiny objects to make money online by those dishonest get-rich-quick claims, but we all know that they don’t exist. If they do exist, everyone is a millionaire now.
Wealthy Affiliate is not a platform where you find misleading claims, upsells, or anything illegal. It aims to help you make your own affiliate marketing website to promote things you have a passion for. There are also legitimate training courses, site builder, keyword tool, and other powerful tools & features that await you once you decide to give it a try.
I am using it and loving it every single day to build my website, so I can vouch for everything you mention here. Thanks for reminding me how beautiful and amazing WA is. It makes the process easier and cannot wait to see my online success soon. 🙂
Cheers,
Matt
Thank you, Matt! Wishing you much success!

I have been on Wealthy Affiliate for 9 months now, and I hope I will eventually make good money through hard-work of course. It has a great community, providing assistance through it’s staff and members. I hope joining Wealthy Affiliate was never a bad idea at all.
Hi Christine, I agree with you it’s hard to distinguish the good from the bad online companies. I was lucky enough to bump accidentally into Wealthy Affiliate and can wholeheartedly agree with you it’s a great platform.
Not only is the training very good, but the community of like-minded, really nice, and very helpful fellow members is priceless. And the picture that is painted is indeed realistic; not quick money, grow rich fast talks, but honest explanations of how to go along to eventually make money.
It gave me the opportunity to meet great people, like you! 🙂
As well as to do what I like (write and design) and in the meantime earn a bit of money. Like you, I can recommend the platform to anyone.
