Clickbank University (CBU) has some pretty good affiliate training, but not my #1 choice. I’ve been doing this stuff for almost a decade now. If you want to be an affiliate and build affiliate websites, then you are better off learning about that stuff from this affiliate training center. They’ve been around for 15 years, and have produced thousands of success stories (some of which I’ve personally mentored, since 2012).

Sadly, it has and still IS going on. When I finally decided to leave WA and not renew at the roughly $400 gold member membership price, WA changed the websites email holder to no longer for example to be mike@lovelightsllc.com but to mike@domainshield.com. I have had several agencies contact the owners of WA to rectify this plan and I have even been emailed directly saying that they have “fixed the problem”.
Email them and ask if they'll promote it. You'll be surprised! It does help if they know who you are first, but this is easy enough to do. Follow them online, Re-Tweet their stuff, comment on their FB and Twitter posts and add VALUE. Once you've done this for a week or two and they know you a bit, it's much easier to get them to promote for you! 🙂
You can use this skill to help other businesses drive customers to their business. It’s kind of like affiliate marketing, but is often a lot more hands-off and easier to manage. Even though I didn’t want to really create my own products, the information in the vendor section covering ad copy and sales video was critical to becoming a proficient lead generation specialist.

Wealthy Affiliate never lock any website. As long as you have purchased your own domain name, it’s yours 100%. For hosting, WA doesn’t charge any additional charge for web hosting. It’s included in the membership price which I mentioned earlier on. If you’re referring to the domain name, one domain name costs around $14 to $16 per year. So I really don’t know what’s the expensive hosting you’re talking about.

First of all, I’m not saying you MUST host your website at ClickBank. But if you’ve started building website using their Builder tool, it’s hard for you to move it somewhere else, not because they hold “hostage” to your website. It’s because the contents are built in such a way that it can only be shown properly using their Builder. When you move your website to somewhere else, you have to spend a lot of time re-doing all the content to make it look visually appealing. You get my point here? This is just like many other content/page builders. Once you stop using the plugin, your content is no longer readable.
This is a useful resource for most tools you’ll need to your online business successfully. Some of these are: social media tools, Email Service Provider (ESP) and your website domain. Ordinarily you could just search Google and you’ll arrive at different vendors for these, but the advantage of using the links in the CBU toolkit is you’ll be able to purchase from legit vendors at a friendlier price.
