Wealthy Affiliate has helped a lot of their students become successful Internet entrepreneurs. Of course, as in the case of many other digital programs, some might have failed.
But here’s a list of some inspiring success stories:
1. Bryon - $40,000 In One Weekend
Bryon joined Wealthy Affiliate in 2012. At the beginning, he just did it as a side hustle. But it only took him 2 years to get rid of his 9 to 5 job and work full time for his business. And in just 5 years, he made $1.1 million with just one website.
Because of his success, he was even invited and paid $2500 to speak at a private conference for 7-8 figure business owners. He believed as long as you put your mind to it and work hard, everyone can achieve this.
2. Eddie - $116,000 In 3-Month Span
Eddie first dipped his toes into affiliate marketing back in 2015. However, due to the excitement and demands of starting a new business project, he couldn’t fully commit to affiliate marketing at the time.
Fast forward to 2018, Eddie decided to give affiliate marketing another shot. This time, he was more determined and ready to dive deeper into the intricacies of this marketing strategy.
In 2020, specifically from October to December, Eddie set an ambitious goal for himself. He aimed to generate $200K in revenue for the business he was representing. It was a lofty target, but Eddie was not one to shy away from a challenge.
Although Eddie fell short of his goal, bringing in $116K, the experience was far from a failure. He attributes the success he did achieve to the very act of setting such a high goal. It pushed him to stretch his abilities and work tirelessly towards it. Even though he didn’t hit the $200K mark, Eddie’s efforts were far from wasted.
3. Nathaniell Brenes - 9 Year Anniversary & a $30K Sale
Nathaniell has been a member of Wealthy Affiliate since 2010. He has a multiple website earning $1k or more a month. He can sell one of his websites for $30k. You can read his post where he talked about his 10 years at Wealthy Affiliate.
In the post, he revealed his secret of success.
The first secret is to set up the right mindset. Rather than treating your business as a “side project”, you have to make it become a habit like going to the gym. And you work on your business every day.
The second secret is that reaching a goal only requires small daily actions. It can be frustrating if you try to rush towards the goal. Instead, you should break down your big goal into small goals and achieve the small goals every day.
At the beginning, you may feel like there is no result and it takes forever, but actually the result is happening and you’re getting closer to success every day.
4. Grace - $100K in 4 Years

5. Steve - $9K a Month for One Website
Steve has joined Wealthy Affiliate since 2009. Following the training at Wealthy Affiliate, he is now a very successful affiliate marketer. He shared how he made almost $9K a month for just one website in this post.
He revealed the three primary ways to generate income from his website:
- Display ads
- Cost-per-action ads
- Affiliate marketing
He said the income he generated from his websites allows him to enjoy the freedom to live his dream life. He does not have to work for someone else.
To him, it makes no sense to make someone else rich while being confined to hours of work in office every week. He is now travelling frequently with family while making money from his websites.
6. Phyrb - $6,800 In Commission (One Month)
Phyrb joined Wealthy Affiliate in 2017. After completing the training, he soon found that there were good affiliate commissions to be earned by promoting stock-related products.
He focused his marketing efforts on high-ticket programs, as he noticed that it was enough for him to make a full-time income even with just a few sales.
His best month ever resulted in $6,800 in commissions, which came from four different affiliate programs, with the majority coming from a stock trading educational program.
7. Stephanie - $28K in 13 Months
When Stephanie joined Wealthy Affiliate in 2017, she only viewed her blog as a hobby. However, she quickly figured out how to monetize it and earned around $600 per article.
After working on her blog for 13 months, she was surprised when another blogger in her niche offered $28k to acquire her website.
This unexpected success taught her the value of patience and building authority in her niche.

In the above post, Ralph shared how he made $128K for a month. He is in the health and fitness niche because he was a part-time kickboxer instructor.
