Wealthy Affiliate University is an internet marketing forum that I’ve been a member of for a year. It mostly deals with creating affiliate income. But, it does it in a slightly different way than most other internet marketing forums.

The core of Wealthy Affiliate is it’s forum. It’s quite an active forum dealing with many aspects of affiliate marketing. There are usually a few hundred posts a day, and often at least 5-10 topics that get very deep and detailed.

Like all forums, the core is people who post regularly. There are plenty of posters, newbies and experts alike who post daily. There is Kyle and Carson who run the board, as well as Travis Sago of Bum Marketing. Plus a plethora of other posters like TerryB, HughDP, Thadroe and DaveB who always provide excellent insight into affiliate marketing.

Even though Wealthy Affiliate started as mainly just the forum, it has evolved into much, much more. One of the new developments is that WA offers free hosting. You can create a website and upload it directly onto the Wealthy Affiliate servers and be up in a very short time. It’s an awesome resource which could save you hundreds of dollars a year.

Site Rubix was announced just a few short months ago, and it truly was amazing. It was a free tool that allows you to quickly and easily create a website using simple drag and drop interfaces. It’s not necessary to learn any programming languages, HTML, PHP, ASP or anything of the sort. Combined with the free web hosting, Site Rubix offers a complete internet marketing suite.

Once the darling of the internet marketing world, and how almost all advertisements are done. Banner advertisements have been ignored by many internet marketers. However, if you have a content-rich, article based website it is very important to promote your site well and drive quality traffic to the site. One often overlooked method is banner advertisements.

Banner Ads??? Are you Sure?

Banner ads are a good way of getting targeted traffic from a similar type website to come to your own. The monthly fees vary widely from high traffic websites that can run into the thousands of dollars a month, to highly targeted smaller niche websites that might sell the same space for $50 for the year. If you find the right website you might be able to save quite a bit of money versus the equivalent cost of PPC or the time and effort required to get the website optimized for the search engines. One other avenue to look at is, the banner exchange networks. It’s possible to find free banner exchanges, although we’ll look at the benefits of each type of banner ads.
