Earn Extra Money Working Part Time with Wealthy Affiliate by J Barton

Are you out of work, fear being laid off, or have a low income? Looking to add to your income or create sole income? I am a low wage earner, working 3 jobs to make ends meet. Losing income from one job and hours at another, I needed to earn extra money working part time. Having heard about internet marketing, I spent time researching and found a program that met my needs as a "newbie", the Wealthy Affiliate University, an affiliate marketing site.

What is so unique about Wealthy Affiliates and why university? Simply put, Wealthy Affiliates is not just a set of ideas or instructions, but a large community geared up for newbies and experienced internet marketers alike. Kyle and Carson (the wealthy affiliates) started Wealthy Affiliates in 2005 to help people succeed online. Where others may keep things secret, sharing is the big thing at Wealthy Affiliates, community being interactive and geared up to support its members whether they are new to marketing, finding success or experiencing the inevitable "bumps in the road" of internet marketing. Resources include:

1. Eight week course that guides you through all aspects of affiliate marketing.

2. Forum where hundreds of members help, support and advise.

3. Videos and articles written by members sharing their experiences, and a learning center of tutorials and videos teaching you the skills needed to succeed.

4. NicheQ, providing research and tools on a variety of Niches assisting in getting you started with your marketing campaign.

5. Free web hosting is available to every member, Also page building software, e-mail and the ability to host external domains and domain aliases.

6. Personal coaching with owners and internet millionaires Kyle and Carson.

I've never sold anything in my life and had no experience with affiliate marketing. Through following the 8 week course, using the resources on the site, and implementing what I have been taught I am earning extra money working part time and am making strides towards my ultimate goal - giving up my job to work online full time.
