Monetize Your Website
Oh damn I was right. I got kicked out of the Wealthy Affiliate for asking too many questions and the owners didn’t like my tone and said I was being overly negative and critical about them. All I can say is you can look at the questions or even join the site to take a look for yourself to judge whether I was being critical for the sake of being critical or because I was wanted to get the answers from them. I had a genuine desire to learn the things I asked them but the owners didn’t think so. I emailed them my campaign details for a critique but they told me its too late because they have decided to terminate my membership.
Please check out my Wealthy Affiliate review for the full story.

You know what Vince, its people like that that piss me off.
self appointed ‘gurus’, who couldnt prove they had a middle finger if you shoved it in their face.
Here’s a general rule on membership sites.
Menbership sites are built ot do one thing and one thing alone….string the subscribers along to make the owner(s) money. thats it. its not about revealing any ’secret’. I think oyu were kicked out because you showed they ahve no susbstance. I bet you they make their money from subscribers, not adwords.
Bottom line…if oyu have to pay monthly for it, and they arenot willing to do thy bidding, screw em…they are a scam.
Wow… Thats a typical guru wanna be membership site. Any real guru wont kick a member just for asking too many questions and/or if they didnt like your tone. Now the questions you asked these people arent too hard at all to answer. I could’ve answered all of them if I had my own membership site. I guess it just shows these people just want to make easy bucks each month just by providing probably outdated content to the members thinking each one will be satisfied.
I am personally a member with Wealthy Affiliate and I find their support to be amazing compared to any other service I have tried thus far. These guys are dedicated to their members and I believe that it was fair that VincentRich was removed from the forum as he was bringing down a lot of the other members. He came into the forum asking very elementary questions even though he has years of experience with internet marketing. Sounds like he was just there to promote his site and be a nuscience. I am glad that he is not a member because when he was a WA member he had nothing but negative things to say.
Dear James D,
I need to clarify 3 things…
Firstly, I NEVER promoted my site in the WA forum. There was no incoming link to my site in any post. I never said anything like “hey visit my blog!” in any forum post at all.
Secondly, I NEVER “brought down a lot of other members”. Quote me a post I made that was targeted at any 1 specific member?
Thirdly, I joined WA to learn how to get some elementary and hopefully advanced stuff. Things like landing pages I am still unclear about and how to research keywords. I did not feel like the “mentors” in WA wanted to share how they did the 2 things I wanted to learn therefore I asked them why?
Sincerely,
Vincent
I have been using Wealthy Affiliate for nearly a month now and I have found them absolutely professional and informative. I just purchased their new e book Beating Adwords and found it to be the best out there. Most people seem to be very happy with them. I would try them again and this time be more positive. I have had great success due to them and their forum. Good luck
Just a warning about this program.
I honestly don’t think you got kicked out of Wealthy Affiliate for asking too many questions. I’ve been a member of Wealthy Affiliate since December of 2005, and I’ve PLENTY of questions - Carson and Kyle have NEVER said “sorry, we’re kicking you out - you ask too many questions”. I just looked over your posts and found that Carson and Kyle did a great job of answering your questions - but its not their fault if you didn’t like the answers. I’d say you got kicked out because of your negative attitude - that’s generally a turn off.
Hey Keith, Thanks for your post. Just to clarify this issue. They told me I was not suitable for the site because it was for beginners and intermediates but not for people like me who they consider as advanced and also because of my “negative attitude”.
The answers I wanted from them were later revealed in their ebook “Beating AdWords”. I realised that after I got kicked out. No wonder they were not willing to reveal much. I was unhappy with their answers and it was my fault. My expectations were too high and they could not live up to them.
Wealthy Affiliate 2.0 has been released. There are some truly amazing tools and a really organized structure to it.
I’ve been a member for 3 months. I personally believe these guys know their stuff. My first month after joining I earned about $420 from Clickbank through Adwords. Not a lot, but I’m just a beginner. One of the best aspects is the community support to help you push toward your goals. I highly recommend trying it for a month to see for yourself - especially now that WA 2.0 has been released.

Hey people are not going to tell you how they make ther money, In detail any way, they may coach you on the basic, forget it if you thank Wealthy Affiliate is going to tell you ther Secrets on how they make money, if you do you are bad wrong.

I can’t believe anyone would ever have anything bad to say about the support that The Wealthy Affiliates offer!!!!! These guys are awesome and their system is the best purchase I have ever made…HANDS DOWN! I have spent nearly $870 on crap products including rich jerk, ultimate wealth package, and affiliate project x…all a waste of my darn money.
If you want to make money and need support, I would sugggest go for it. I didn’t regret it, and if you are truly looking to make real money online, you won’t either. Madison
I’ve been a member of WA for about 3 months now, and I absolutely love it. There is a lot of support and help. I am not sure why you were kicked out. WA is a real blessing for a lot of beginners.
I’ve put a review of it: http://www.webreviewboard.org/WealthyAffiliateReview.html.
I’ve also done a comparison between Project X and Wealthy Affiliate http://www.webreviewboard.org/KillAffiliateProjectX.html
Good luck…
Hey Vince, are you sure that you aren’t a member yourself? Considering that there is an affiliate ID for wealthy affiliate in your link to wealthy affiliate, and that you have to be a member to promote WA as an affiliate, that would lead me to believe that you are being dishonest.
I have not been a member of WA since I was kicked out. The affiliate link was added to my site when I was still a member.
OK, let’s all be honest here. Wealthy Affiliate (by far) offers the most value of any forum or membership site that I have ever been a part of. I’ve tried 4 or 5 of the other so called “TOP” membership sites out there and they are a joke compared to Wealthy Affiliate. Kyle and Carson have been working with me on a personal basis for 3 months and have single handedly helped me generate profits that come in on a daily basis.
Vincent, I saw your questions and Kyle & Carson answered them in detail. You, however, did not like the answers. In a few cases they provided even further detail, and you simply kept saying that you weren’t happy. Also, you posted about 20, long winded, 5-6 part questions in a day and you know what? They answered nearly all of them.
Everyone in the industry knows that these guys are offering the most value of anyone and they are helping people become successful unlike most crap out there. No one can take anything away from what is offered at Wealthy Affiliate.
Just to clarify the facts…
Stacey said “you posted about 20, long winded, 5-6 part questions in a day and you know what? They answered nearly all of them”. You are right about the “nearly all of them” part but the questions part is untrue. I asked a total of 14 questions in the forum and they are documented in my review. Personally, I do not think they are rude but the 2 guys took it that way. They did not answer ALL of them and I thought their answers were not good enough.
Furthermore they accused me of harassing members in their forum and that is totally untrue. For that, I have no respect for them.
Thanks Vince. The part where they don’t teach how to come up with the keywords is a real turnoff.
I’ve been a member of WA since October 2006 and never felt I’m wasting 30 bucks each month. Sure, Kyle & Carson thrown CRAP like Who Loves money…
But Wealthy affiliate is an awesome product. It’s really the university of internet marketing.
