skip the hype and get to the actual value you get from this program.This is an elaborate view of wealthy affiliate. No cute graphics here just the nitty gritty essentials as I am no guru, I am just an ordinary Joe who has found out how to make money online. I have been dabbling online for some time specifically with Google ad words & affiliating marketing and while I achieved some success the learning curve was huge & the amount of crap I had to wade through was over powering if I did not have the right guidanceIf you think you are going to get rich in a week from this forget it - sorry if that sounds harsh but it is the truth and better to know that now .It took me about a month to make a sale.The whole time I had been reading through the resources available at wealthy affiliate. So with that said here is my take pros & cons on the Wealthy Affiliate membership site.Have an open mind.

Pros

1. By far the most powerful part of the wealthy affiliate program is the forum. The post made by some of the advanced members are priceless.

2. The Resource area contains some excellent resources for example.

One On One Coaching

Research Center

3.You get one on one coaching from the Owners Kyle & Carson. This will shorten your learning curve tremendously - It did for me. They will even log into your ad word account,with your permission of course, to make sure you have everything setup the way they teach in the resource section

4. Key words in already profitable niches are supplied.

Cons

1. Wealthy Affiliate is an Internet & Affiliate marketing resource - it is not a get rich quick program. I have seen some members posting in the forum wondering why they haven't made a profit after a day or two and decide to quit Don't be one of these. If you decide to join wealthy affiliate then you need to give it at least a month. There is a learning curve in this and if you are prepared to learn then you will succeed guaranteed.

2. The more people that join the wealthy affiliate program(13000 as of this writing) the more competition there is for all members. That's okay though because with over 200 million surfing everyday there is plenty for everybody

3. New members don't read or participate in the forum enough. Some new users get caught up in setting up campaigns and neglect to read the valuable information being posted everyday.

4. New members start campaigns too quick I have seen new members make some profit and before they master that campaign run off and start another. Before they know it they start loosing money and they wonder why. I wish there was a rule where you could not start a campaign for at least two weeks - Seriously, I think in the long run they would benefit from it.
