No one likes change but we all know change is inevitable and we all want the change to be good and in our favour. Right? In our Wealthy Affiliate Price Changes: + FREE Domains to sweeten the deal update, we will discuss in detail what this means for new and current members.
What is Affiliate Marketing
What is affiliate marketing? The simple answer is:
- Building a niche website that addresses a problem
- Selling a product or service that will solve this problem
Of course, there is more to it but this is the formula to get you going and Wealthy Affiliate is a great place to start. If you are looking for the opportunity to run a home-based business, keep reading.
Price Consistency
Wealthy Affiliate is geared towards helping entrepreneurs create a successful online business with affiliate marketing. They have been helping serious-minded people like you to achieve their goals since 2005, putting their innovative ideas to work for you.
One of the most popular aspects of the program has been consistent AND affordable pricing through the years with continuous added value.
For the first time in several years, price change is here. Is it change for the good? I believe so. Let’s take a look at what these significant pricing changes are, how they can benefit you, and why now, is the right time!
It is true that Wealthy affiliate has kept their pricing well below the competition, some of whom charge upwards of one thousand dollars to over ten thousand for less service, less training, and less or no mentorship.
In fact, the Premium package has been $49 per month for 10 years and it will remain $49 per month in the future.
Let’s take a look at these new pricing changes and what they mean!
Current and New Pricing
Current Pricing
Premium: $19 First Month, then $49 Per Month (No Domain)
Premium Plus+: $49 First Month, then $99 Per Month (No Domain)
New Pricing
Premium: $49 Per Month + FREE Domain
Premium Plus+: $99 per month + TWO FREE Domains
So you can see that the only change in pricing is the first-month discount being dropped, BUT remember the sweet deal? You are gaining one or two FREE DOMAINS which, as we already mentioned, is paramount in creating a successful business online.
FREE DOMAIN WITH PREMIUM AND PREMIUM PLUS (!!)
Current Website Ownership
Current Website Limits*
Starter = 1 Website
Premium = 10 websites
Premium Plus+ = 50 Websites
If you are currently new with a beginner membership, upgrade to Premium and get your very own.com domain for FREE. This is huge because having your own brand is a precursor to creating a successful business online.
Let’s break this down so you can see the pricing changes and what they mean.
*Important Note: These changes will not affect you if you are currently with Wealthy Affiliate as you will be grandfathered in as long as you remain a member. (This is for NEW members only.)
