I DO know Wealthy Affiliates first-hand as I WAS a member for 1 year. I used 3 websites through them and I was successful BEHIND the scenes with networking and connecting with people but there I did not get the help I needed or wanted. It wasn’t like I did not reach out to others either but the worst part of being there is right now over a year later.
I was also a full-time procrastinator just like you but one day I finally thought that I have to do something now. Starting out something is the worst part. Some days were good, some were bad.

They make it so simple that anyone can handle it.

Why I say the videos are easy to follow is because they’re only 3 to 5 minutes long. Which means essentially your concentration will be at its peak the whole time and you’ll get most of the information (tons of quality ones) by the end of every video. Some of the topics discussed include:
