Hi Roamy

Thanks for your comment.

Yes, there are certainly tons of scams out there and the numbers are growing. As for taking surveys, there are some legit ones but as you said the earnings are next to nothing in comparison to the amount of time you invest.

Coming to affiliate marketing your question is valid and I am sure that it is one that is on a lot of people’s mind. Sure affiliate marketing is about writing about products or services and earning a commission.In its raw form, it is sales. However, I have been taught at Wealthy Affiliate to think of the people that are visiting your site NOT as a customer but as a friend. Someone, whom you are talking to and helping with an issue.

In this way, it is easy to write and will not really appear as ‘salesy.’ Does this makes sense? And if you are talking about something that interests you or something that you are passionate about, then affiliate marketing will not necessarily be a job, but something that you love to do. Once folks start seeing your passion, they will gravitate towards your work and you will be rewarded.

On the flip-side, Wealthy Affiliate does give you a 7 day trial to see if affiliate marketing is for you without any payment. It may not be for everyone and I think that is okay.

As for the free website, it is a sub-domain. For instance if you into selling baseball cards, your free website would be something like http://www.baseballfun.siterubix.com Though the website is yours to keep to life, the sub-domain indicates that it is a part of the siterubix platform. This essentially means that it is exclusively offering you daily back-ups, malware protection, a spam free environment and top notch wordpress hosting at Siterubix. You can take your site with you and host it elsewhere, but you need transfer it to your own domain name, when leaving SiteRubix.

Hope this helps
