Affiliate Marketing For Seniors
Just between us, I really am not used to talking about myself on the huge open world wide web. I am a private person. Suffice it to say, affiliate marketing for seniors is a very important topic.
I’ll explain how I got here, stretching way beyond my comfort zone, and, also why I am starting to like it!
I’ll tell you a bit about me, so that you can see how I think I can help you.
Top Jobs, Retirees. Why I Was Looking!
I had retired from an athletic career, got married, had a baby…and then normal became a struggle as many things that were in the long-term plan didn’t happen.
The good times were being able to do fun things with my child and his godparents and god-bro, as they called each other.
Returning to the athletic field I had been in was difficult and expensive. Then I discovered internet marketing. And Wealthy Affiliate University.
A chance to augment my income from home!
Furthermore, I could write about my field (ballet) in my sleep!
I got very excited and bought training I couldn’t understand! I spent evenings and weekends trying to, for a year.
Then I canceled my monthly $39 membership, got a free Blogger blog, and started writing about what I really knew well.
I wrote almost every day for a year. I had found a ClickBank ebook about ballet to promote for commissions, a product I could truly stand behind, then I found another.
(Click on that link to learn more about the ClickBank marketplace of digital products.)
I forged ahead with no training, and earned over a thousand dollars that first year.
That niche, or small market area, became huge and the “pros” swept in and stole my writing, on a weekly basis. I got tired of filing complaints and getting their blogs taken down.
Yet, I could have taken control of that situation and turned it around, but I did not know how.
Then I got laid off and finding some training was crucial!
Here I was close to retirement age – in a panic!
I knew that eventually I could make enough money on line to retire from my day job, if I learned how to publish faster, but well.
I found Wealthy Affiliate where I could make web sites and build them up as fast as I wanted to.
The step-by-step visual training is the easiest and best I have found, and I tried a lot of courses.
I want to share with you the Wealthy Affiliate training opportunity!
I want to help you get ahead with affiliate marketing (promoting products for commissions), and learn how to do it correctly, so that you can skip all the mistakes I made.
It is the best instruction a person can get for a work from home job, or work from your RV, sail boat, or your country cottage.
One blogger I found on line started at the local library, saving his affiliate marketing income until he was able to buy his own computer.
It doesn’t matter where or how you start. I’m here to tell you that you can get started for free. You can test drive this opportunity and start to learn how to create an income for yourself.
So that is what I am about now, sharing and helping you develop your options for senior lifestyle careers.
It’s easy to take a look at Wealthy Affiliate, and join for free.

Enjoyed so much your article and its inclusion of so many good points about working from home in affiliate marketing. I am a 75-year-old, Wealthy Affiliate member and have certainly enjoyed the training, which I still participate in, and applying what I have learned to my own website. Yes, seniors can work from home on their computers and most of you are quite adept at yours. Think about it!
Hi Tanya! Thanks for your thoughts here. You are proof of the pudding lol. Ten years ago I was afraid of getting older – omg – what’s going to happen to me etc. Yet ten years later, I know much more about what I can do and pursue with working on line. And that’s transpired just in the past couple of years, with consistent training at Wealthy Affiliate. Power to you!
I love your site! I joined the WA site a month ago and am lovin’ the learning. I’m 52 and not as tech savvy as my hubby but the more I learn here, blog to my own website that I’m still developing, reviewing other member websites and learning how they display, blog, create, design and show all the ad links (which I still need to learn) is exciting and very helpful. Ironically, one of my hubby’s interests is ham radio; we’re both licensed amateur radio ops but he shared with me a new idea he is looking at and i thought: it’s a product and service that can enhance other hams interested in it and will be a significant contribution if developed properly. Your site provided great articles on validating the concept – thank you so much! Keep creating, keep inspiring us “older folk!”
Hello and thank you for your feedback! My site is still a work in progress and I’m happy to hear it has a value for another blogger. Best wishes for your hubby’s new site on his ham radio idea! It is great to capitalize on a skill we already have isn’t it? There is no end of ideas!
