Wealthy Affiliate For India
Wealthy Affiliate for India. I got a couple of emails recently about are people able to sign up for Wealthy Affiliate that are from the country of India. To my surprise, I found out some interesting answers to what I thought was a pretty cut and dry questions and answers. I guess I was ignorant, so I thought I would write a short post on the matter addressing the question, to provide information for people looking to join from India and also from anywhere around the world.
Also, I forgot to mention, if you are unfamiliar with Wealthy Affiliate, I suggest you check out my full in-depth review, Wealthy Affiliate Review.
My initial thought was, of course, you can join Wealthy Affiliate, no matter what country you are from, but this was shockingly wrong.
Let’s Try To Clear Things Up Here
First and Foremost, Wealthy Affiliate is international. There is currently members from every country in the world at Wealthy Affiliate. Truly, making Wealthy Affiliate a global community.
Now, in order to clear things up, we need to know about the membership program at Wealthy Affiliate. Wealthy Affiliate has two membership available in order to join.
- Free Membership Account – absolutely free to join, limited training available but it’s enough to get you going. If you are not from a banned country, you get the $19.00 off the first month if you sign up with a free member within the first seven days of joining under me. A great savings and a discount for getting your feet wet.
- Premium Membership Account – to get access to all the available best training found on the internet, dealing with affiliate marketing, you must pay a monthly fee of $47.00. If you want to get a cheaper plan head over to my page on Concerns & Fears of Joining Wealthy Affiliate. As I break down the cheapest way of getting Wealthy Affiliate premium membership.
Now that we know about the membership options at Wealthy Affiliate we can clear things up. Two really import details about joining Wealthy Affiliate.
- If your from India or for that matter, any country in the world, (except Nigeria) you can join the Premium Membership.
- If you’re from India or any banned country, you can’t join the Free Membership account.
There are numerous members at Wealthy Affiliate that are premium members that are from India. If you are from a banned country, this is the only legit way of joining Wealthy Affiliate, is to join the Premium membership. There are no restrictions for the paid version(premium) of Wealthy Affiliate. It’s the free version of Wealthy Affiliate that is restricted to certain countries. (update: Nigeria is now banned from joining Premium membership as well as the free membership)
So, you will not be able to join Wealthy Affiliate Free Membership if you are from India, but you can join the Premium Membership at Wealthy Affiliate. Only the paid version at Wealthy Affiliate, which is the better version anyways, if you ask me.
What Countries Are Banned From Joining Wealthy Affiliate?
Currently, there are a total of seven countries that can’t join the Free Membership at Wealthy Affiliate.
- India
- Nigeria (update, people from Nigeria are unable to join Premium account as well as the Free membership)
- Philippines
- Pakistan
- Vietnam
- Bangladesh
- Egypt
Reason Why Certain Countries Cannot Join The Free Membership At Wealthy Affiliate
You might be asking yourself why are these certain countries banned from joining a free membership at Wealthy Affiliate. Well, it’s because of a lot of hacking and cheating from members of those banned countries. High fraud rates, high spamming rates, and unfair gaming of the Wealthy Affiliate system. So, in order to protect their system, they opted to ban the most prolific countries cheating. Can’t really blame them as they are trying to protect what they have built and maintain an honest system.
So if you’re serious about joining for the sole intended purpose of creating a website and business and not gaming a system, you can do so by joining the Premium account available at Wealthy Affiliate.
If you’re trying to pay for a premium account and your country (other than Nigeria) is not listed, try to select an adjoining country, your neighbor country and try to sign up that way.
What Types of Payment Will Wealthy Affiliate Accept For Joining Premium?
If you are interested in joining Wealthy Affiliate and wondering, “what form of payment they take?”, as this can be confusing because some countries don’t allow certain types of payments.(like PayPal)
Wealthy Affiliate accepts PayPal, MasterCard, and Visa credit cards.
Does Wealthy Affiliate Support My Language?
The amazing thing about Wealthy Affiliate is that it supports 100% of any languages in the world. The only problem, however, being, that you will need to understand English to fully understand the training offered as well as connect with people and requesting help. If you are able to understand the English language, then you could learn the training and then apply it and use your native language to create a website, entirely in your native language.
What Do You Need To Join Successfully Join Wealthy Affiliate
Ideally, you would need a laptop or PC for optimally work on your website(s). You might be able to use some type of Ipad or equivalent, but it with typically be a lot slower due to the lack of a keyboard. But it is not impossible. Also what is needed is a broadband connection to get going.
Well Your Set On Learning Affiliate Marketing And You’re From A Banned Country, Now What?
If your set on learning affiliate marketing and want to join a system that teaches you affiliate marketing and you can’t join due to your country being banned by Wealthy Affiliate, I have a couple of recommendations for you.
Chris Farrell program – This is a good program, second to Wealthy Affiliate of course and a good alternative to Wealthy Affiliate.
Blog Ninja program – They pay you $1.00, just to join and teach the fundamentals of affiliate marketing. A lesser program but will get you going. You can also read my full reviews here, Is Blog Ninja A Scam? and Does ShoeMoney Work?.
Summary
Wealthy Affiliate is a fantastic learning and support site and is unmatched in affiliate marketing learning, so I highly recommend you join the premium if you are on the banned country list. You will not be disappointed. Be prepared to work and see your results. I hope this page has helped clear things up for you.
If you have any question or comments, I would love to hear them. Thanks!

Hello , Myself RAJIV ROY from India. I am 60+ of age trying to earn as an Affiliate Marketer from Internet. As India is not allowed to JOIN FREE with WA want to to Premium directly. Please clarify whether I should pay $49 or I am allowed to pay$19 for FIRST MONTH then $49 there after ? Waiting your quick reply mail. Regards.

ok mr. roy you need to pay $49 for a month but if you want you can pay $349 for 365 days choice is yours
You do get a pretty substantial savings when you pay for the year instead of paying monthly. I pay yearly as this is obviously cheaper than monthly. It is really worth it. You will be making your own money and not for someone else. It is also very rewarding.
Your first month is $19.00, after that it is $49.00 a month. The first month is cheaper. Normally, when you join the free account, you have 7 days to join as a premium member at the discounted price of $19.00. If you want even a cheaper deal, Wealthy Affiliate has a special black Friday sale right now, if you can afford it, for $299.00. It is a substantial savings over the year, it breaks down to $24.92 a month, I highly recommend paying the yearly membership over the month to month. There is 2 days left on the sale.
I guess people from banned countries do not get the first month at $19.00.
Wealthy Affiliate is a great way to learn affiliate marketing, I love using it and learning. If you have any more questions please feel free to email or ask here in the comments.
Sign up for the Premium Membership here.
The special Black Friday Sale is here.
Hello Dan..!!
Hope u r doing great.!!
$3000 in a year is what I earn through my job here in India. But A JOB IS A JOB….. COMMANDED BY OTHERS… R88888888…
I have seen all the reviews of your blog… NOT MUCH.. ONLY A FEW OF THEM… But coming to the traffic pointofview.. The number of people visiting your site are very verly less… So, Ho w come u r not able to get the traffic..????
See I am not familiar about this internet thing.. but have lill confusion on that…. Lets make it simple.. I visited your page today n commented.. numbers like that are few….????? Hope u got what I am talking about..
Now, the main poin.. Honestly writing…. I have been already robbed by some internet thugs in the past… So, I always fear of losing my hard earned money too.. So I am all confused weather the business you are talking about is genuine… or sorry to write.. but.. will u also dissapear like others did.?????
Its not a big amount to invest but somehow it will effect our monthly fix expenses budget and salary.. PIN TO PIN…..
I also know the fact that there is no free business in this world.. to gain some u need to give some.. I am a whole POSITIVE GUY… want to just click start.. but on the r8 track this time.. plzzz do guide.
So, Please do share how can I move ahead.
CAN U ALSO CONFIRM AT WHAT STAGE/TIME PERIOD AFTER JOINING WILL WE ABLE TO MAKE MONEY……….?????????
Thanks in advance.
Hey Raghuveer,
Hello and welcome. Why do you think I get no traffic? Are you basing this on fact or are you just making this up. I know what I get for traffic through Google Webmaster tools and it is not (very very less). Especially if your not familiar with this “internet thing” why would you comment on my traffic? Just to be clear, I do get traffic, is it enough> it is never enough and this is what drives me.
Besides all you passive implying negative comments, you are commenting on my traffic and the lack of comments on the one page in which you posted? Let’s keep in mind, you found my page and also just asked a question on that very page.
I think you should refrain from trying to be difficult and just ask your questions. Your questions are not very clear and definitely have a negative tone to them. I think you are just trying to be cautious.
Wealthy Affiliate has been around since 2008, it is here to stay. I wish you could join the free account to see for yourself but being your country India has a lot of people trying to cheat the system at Wealthy Affiliate they had to ban the country from joining the free membership. I also had the same fears you did but I did my research and a year and two months later, I am still a member and still proudly support Wealthy Affiliate for a way to make money. There are people from all over the world that are members of Wealthy Affiliate,including India, that make money using this system too. Do your research, then decide.
Wealthy Affiliate doesn’t promise you the moon or instant success. It takes time and work. This is another reason you know it is completely legitimate. Scam promise instant success and lots of money.
There is no way to confirm when or at what stage you will make money. To many factors to determine this. Most people start seeing something come in after 6 months to a year or even longer. Keep in mind your building a business from the ground up. It takes time and a lot of work. It cost money too, but the training is top notch.
In order for you to move ahead I would suggest you do your research, other websites, video reviews of Wealthy Affiliate. Formulate an understanding of the system. Then form an opinion on the subject. If you want to join come back here and click one of the links on my page to join, if you don’t want to join, then just don’t join.
I hope this helps, if not reply back and I will do my best to help you.

Hey Rahul, Yes you can join Wealthy Affiliate. You can join the premium membership found here.

Hey dan
I like this programme…
After i build my website would there be trainings for mastering traffic?
Thankyou
Hey Roy,
You can learn about traffic while building your website. The courses teach you step-by-step how to correctly build your website from the get go to successfully get traffic to your website. There are no short cuts. But there are numerous training on getting traffic, in addition to the training courses. It’s an amazing site. Let me know if you have any more questions. Hope to see you on the inside.
Hey Dan,
I have read about online marketing, SEO, etc. Can I build free websites using services like WordPress and then monetize them?
I presently cannot invest in the Premium Membership for Wealthy Affiliate. Also unfortunately I can’t join for free since I am from India.
Please do get back to me as soon as you can and thanks for this post.
Also it would be helpful if you could say how much you actually make from your blogs, if that’s okay with you.
please understand that I do not want to hurt amybody’ feelings or spread negative comments. I am just being curios.
Thanks again.
Yours,
Raj
Yes, you can build websites with the knowledge you have learned already. You can go to siterubix and get a free website right now.
Raj, how much anybody makes is dependent on many factors, everybody makes different amounts of money. Wealthy Affiliate teaches you how to correctly build a online business, there is a lot of information and knowledge to know. I would be lost without WA. I know people on WA that make $16,000 a month and I know people that are struggling making anything. There are no guarantees with anything. This depends on many aspects, worth ethic, niche subject, keyword competition. There is no set amount, don’t get hung up on the how much you can make, as soon as you make money online you realize that if you scale up your website with more content, more traffic or more websites that you increase your money. You can have up to 50 websites at WA. I don’t tell people what I make anymore, I can tell you I do make money. I have worked hard and I am still working hard.
Hurt feelings, not here. Why would I have hurt feeling? I’m lost. Hope this helps you.
I don’t know anything about website building.
And i am not a master in English Language. Is there any support through Malayalam language. (Kerala.India)
You do not have to know anything to get started at Wealthy Affiliate. All will be taught to you, it can range from a complete novice to a seasoned expert. Wealthy Affiliate has so much to offer.
I don’t believe there is support for your language at Wealthy Affiliate but you could use a program like http://www.imtranslator.net/ to translate. Also, I see WordPress supports Malayalam language. As Wealthy Affiliate uses WordPress. I hope this helps you in some way Arun.
Dear Dan
Nice Blog on WA with excellent Key Words to attract people from India. My Gut Feeling says it is Genuine. Just want to know one thing, if I promote WA and someone joins WA with my WA affiliate link, will I get paid. Can you disclose figure just for my motivation. I am desperately seeking money .After 02 months of targeted hard work, will I be able to pay monthly payments of WA – through WA income. One last question, how the money is converted in my country’s currency after earnings through WA. Hope for an immediate reply to start immediately.
Warm Regards, Gaurav ( from India)
Gaurav,
Regards recieved my Indian friend.
The typical results of joining WA and working are different for everyone, but typically you will see positive results in 6 months. This is a long game not a short game, just to be crystal clear. I can not answer that question, as after two months of work, you could be able to pay your monthly fees, but in all likelihood it takes time and work. Usually, more than 2 months, but not unheard of. You are paid through PayPal. Hope this helps clear things up, if not let me know, I’ll try to help.

Good wealthy affiliate review.
I hope your readers will enjoy reading it
Thanks I hope to spread the how great Wealthy Affiliate is to the whole world. As I have seen so many improvements in my life since joining.
Hi I just want to know if I pay 49$ a month how much will I get in return from it
You will gain knowledge and mentorship and step by step instructions along with networking with other affiliate marketers. This is a long game not a short game. You have to work and put in time but it works. You’re not going to get rich overnight or in one month, although it could happen I guess, but highly unlikely. Most scams promise instant success, you will never hear that at Wealthy Affiliate. If you want to learn and build an online presence that will make money down the line, Wealthy Affiliate is it. Also you can save a lot of money by buying the yearly membership which reduces the cost substantively. Feel free to comment if you have any more questions.
Hello Dan,
Hope you are doing well..
I have a baisc knowledge of internet, so is there a surety that I’ll earn good money from WA and if I do how long it will take in terms of months.
Amy,
There are no guarantees that you’ll make good money. Many people have made great money and nothing at all from using Wealthy Affiliate. As it depends on many details that you choose. The amount of work you put in, the niche you decide to go into, your ability to write, and many other factors that determine what kind of money you make and some luck too. The important thing to remember is at Wealthy Affiliate what you learn does work. I was skeptical at first myself, but after six months of work, I started to make money. I am still improving and learning along the way. I don’t think the learning ever stops. This keeps it interesting and challenging too.
Most people start making some money after 6 months, it could be shorter it could be longer. There is no set amount of time. It’s important to not quit during this period of time, to just keep plugging away at it, following the lessons provided.
When that first money starts coming in, it is very satisfying. This is a turning point when you realize the program works as the money is the proof. If you’re looking for quick money on the internet, I don’t think it exists. It takes steady work and time.
Hope this helps you decide Amy. If you have more questions feel free to reply back. You can also join the free membership at WA, there are no strings attached. To effectively take a look around and form your own opinion.
Hi Dan
I am from India, and $49 for another 6 months without expecting a return seems hard since am a student. Is there any other website that you suggest I refer to from which I can learn about a similar program but free of cost? I am ready to put in the efforts for a sustained period of time, but I cant afford $49 for a few months. I realy wish to learn this. Hope you can help :).
YouTube is full of people willing to teach you how to do affiliate marketing. I would start there. It will just require you more work on your part and more mistakes but it can be done.
I totally understand about the money, after all, I been flat broke so many times in my life. When there is a will there is a way.
Hi Dan,
Loved your detailed explanation of why India is banned from this website. But unfortunately I hated this part..
“Well, it’s because of a lot of hacking and cheating from members of those banned countries. High fraud rates, high spamming rates, and unfair gaming of the Wealthy Affiliate system. So, in order to protect their system, they opted to ban the most prolific countries cheating. Can’t really blame them as they are trying to protect what they have built and maintain an honest system.”
If we Indian are so bad why every US company is like Facebook, Google, Amazon are spending billions of dollars to lure Indian Market.
Look at the countries with which are kept.. Common India is already a sixth largest economy and in next two years we will be fifth largest economy.
I believe the founder of wealthy affiliate has the same old mentality which is really pathetic… And we do not need wealthy affiliate program to be wealthy
However, love and respect for your detailed explanation.
Thanks for sharing your feelings about the situation. No, you do not need Wealthy Affiliate to be wealthy. People from India are only banned from joining the free account due to the high amount of cheating from certain countries. It doesn’t truly reflect the country (India), just that there is a high number of people trying to gain the Wealthy Affiliate system there and unfortunately and unfairly the honest decent people suffer. I don’t know all the ends and outs around the banning of countries, but thought I would write about it to maybe help someone.
Lots of amazing people in India, not to mention the food is amazing. Great culture and religions.
Thanks for the comment.
