I just sent in my 5th article and decided that I needed to say, "THANK YOU" to Kyle and Carson! I joined Wealthy Affiliate 14 days ago and started the 30 in 30 challenge 5 days ago. I've never been someone to join forums and even though I have around 200 friends on Facebook, I rarely even logged in until I started building these websites. So, actually sitting down and doing something like writing articles is very new to me, but I'm really enjoying it.

I have been wanting to build my own websites and do some affiliate marketing for years now (since about 2006). Everything is much different now and it boggles my mind how much I have learned in the last couple of weeks. I could have never come this far, as quick as I have, back in '06.

I remember thinking, "how do people get their websites listed on the 1st page of google?" I had no clue how that worked or anything at all about SEO. At first, I was extremely overwhelmed and thought it would take forever to learn everything. But, even though I have a long, long way to go, and so much more to learn, I have realized that the education that I have received on Wealthy Affiliate in just 2 weeks, would have taken me forever to get if I was just winging it and searching for answers.

I have been able to spend about 8 hours a day on these projects and of course, I'm impatiently waiting for something big to happen, but I have definitely gotten more accomplished than I could have ever imagined!

The $47 a month that I am spending at Wealthy Affiliate is absolutely the best money that I have ever spent online. I have 2 websites up (on hair & skin care and diets & exercises), just started my 3rd, I've made over $10 on AdSense (YAY ME) and when I learned today that I needed a site map and figured out how to go into the File Manager in the Control Panel and upload it correctly without taking all day, I thought WOW!

That may sound silly, but each and every day I am learning more and more and I can absolutely say that if I keep this up and stick with it, one day I feel like I will be able to actually make a nice income online.

I'm wanting to start advertising my affiliate link, so one day I can get to Las Vegas and meet you guys. Thanks so much for everything you have done to help me and others!! You guys are great!
