Did you know that Wealthy Affiliate has a Premium Plus membership?
Well, once I found out, I decided to try it.
But this time was different.
Was it something strange? Not really, just different.
After digging around, the new look was perfect! I guess it was like a website facelift.
The best part was, at the top of the page, a video explaining the website’s update.
Something vital with businesses.
Most of the time, it’s a bummer when a website (or your phone) has an update.
But, sometimes, change can be a good thing.
I’m sure you can agree.
It’s nice to be in the loop on what is going on. Wealthy Affiliate is no different—one of the many reasons I initially joined this amazing community.
While watching the video, back in 2020, I soon discovered another membership option called Premium Plus.
The New Bundle: Premium Plus
Then, reading more about this new offer, I noticed a few things.
The introductory offer was only good for about a week, and they were knocking off $200.
One thing you will find out, especially with copywriting, is creating a sense of urgency (or scarcity) can work in your favor.
I searched the community and found a few others with the same questions.
Was the price difference worth it?
Let’s go into the difference between the Premium and Plus plans below.
Premium vs. The Plus Version
Below, you will see a few screenshots. The right side features are for the Premium membership, and the left is for the Plus membership. You will also see the following symbols:
- Green Checkmarks – Included with Wealthy Affiliate
- Purple Diamonds – Included with the Premium membership
- Black Crowns – Included with Premium Plus membership
Instead of listing everything, I figured the screenshots would be more helpful.
As you can see, there is a pretty significant jump in price.
Let’s determine which plan is right for you.
At the top of the above image, you can see I currently pay $299 a year to be part of the fantastic community.
Special Note (you can thank me later)
If you are on the fence about joining, you might like to know there is always a “Black Friday” deal.
Stay tuned, and I will tell you what it is this year. You can always sign up for the FREE membership and find out as soon as it becomes public!
In the screenshot above, you will start seeing where the Plus membership starts to separate itself.
The main things I was looking at were the advanced hosting package and 50 websites.
All this means that you can host multiple websites on your account. With the Premium plan, you can only have 25, but with 50, you can offer to build sites for others!
Something that could leave you with residual income for being a webmaster!
You will also see the bundle package supporters a ton more monthly visitors (from a quarter million to one million)!
Having this problem would be incredible!
Remember, this will be invaluable as your site gets more monthly visitors.
Even More Surprises
Yes, a lot is included in this bundle deal, but I still wasn’t sold on the cost.
As mentioned above, Wealthy Affiliate has the BEST support. I have never had such excellent service with any company. They are truly top-notch.
As I scrolled down the page, I was happy to see “Priority Expert Private Help.”
You don’t need help most of the time, but this will be a great added benefit when you do.
While revamping my business website, I did something, and my site would no longer work. I tried doing everything I could think of.
After some brief panicking, I sent support to what happened. In about an hour, my site was back up and running!
Having that added protection was so nice. I cannot express that enough.
Then, something jumped off the page and got me excited. I put it in a red box in the below image to show you what I’m talking about.
If you are setting up a website, have been reading this blog, or have a general idea of ranking in search engines. You will know SEO is crucial.
At the time, I debated upgrading my Jaaxy account. Well, the Jaaxy upgrade is included with Premium Plus!
We are all trying to improve our websites’ rankings. Having a top-performing keyword tool is key to this.
As you can see from the red box above, Jaxxy Enterprise (the highest level of their service) is included! Not only that, but getting the service costs $99 a month.
Looking at everything you get in the PLUS bundle, you will soon see that the price is way lower considering everything you get. I’m not going to lie. I still took a few days to decide what I wanted to do.
Then, after a lot of thought and weighing my options. I took a leap of faith.
One of the main reasons I decided to do it was the Jaaxy upgrade.
Upgrading from the Lite to Enterprise has been amazing!
Another nice thing to know is you can quickly go from Plus back to the Premium version if you determine it’s not for you. Premium will always be there, and I know I will continue to be part of the Wealthy Affiliate family for many years.
Plus Membership Important Information
It’s important to note that you truly are getting a deal with the Plus Membership.
Plus, it is great for someone who wants the best and can afford it. Sticking with the Premium is good if you are new to the Wealthy Affiliate community.
You can always upgrade to a Plus membership later.
This section informs you of the fantastic bundled package and the added benefits that are available.
I have wanted to give Jaaxy Enterprise a try for some time.
I was on the fence about spending $99 a month, so this quickly became a no-brainer.
When you add the added support and web services, it’s just gravy on top.
Taking The Leap!
I mentioned above that there was an introductory offer for those who caught it. This made my decision extremely easy. I took the jump and joined.
Besides the information I shared with you, they also offered a few other things that I thought were tough to pass up.
I will note that some of these offers might be gone when you read this. I still wanted you to know about them and another reason to have the free account if they pop up again!
- More training, because who doesn’t want to get more training. We will always be learning, and it is best to have access to the best on the market.
- There was an offer to get two domains hosted with Wealthy Affiliate for free each year. This includes the coveted HTTPS security as well as other features.
- Wealthy Affiliate Community Credits. I understand there was a small bump in these credits, which was a one-time thing. If you are not aware, Wealthy Affiliate has many things you can do, but one of the great ones is having others provide you with feedback on your website. It can range from general site information to comments on your posts.
You will learn more about community credits if you join, but in a nutshell, they are a great way to see if you are heading in the right direction with your website and content.
My Recommendation
I still suggest you start with the free membership to see if it’s right for you.
But if you consider going all in, trying it couldn’t hurt.
As I just said, I would start with the free or Premium membership. This will give you first-hand knowledge of all the great things Wealthy Affiliate offers.
Give Wealthy Affiliate a try now!
You will not be disappointed.
The next step, and only after sticking with it for a few months, is to consider the Plus bundle I discussed.
Again, this will give you all the extra benefits I listed above.

Hi,
A great review and informative article on WA. I agree with the points you make and I would encourage anybody to ditch the free membership and go with premium straight way. The benefits are great such as Jaaxy, but the training manual is what makes WA stand out from any other platform online.
I also think that the change in look of the WA platform show both Kyle and Carson care about the success of WA and the members involved.
A great review, thank you
Thanks, and I agree.
I just learned today that the updated look also includes a dark mode. I like it as it’s easier on the eyes, and looks cool. Thanks for the comment and for stopping by.
Thank you so much for your review on Premium Plus at Wealthy Affiliate.
I came across WA the other day and was wondering what are the differences between the free, premium and premium plus. Thanks to your review now I know. I agree the cost of the bundle is a bit much for me during this economy but it is hard to turn down all the premium Jaxxy keyword tools and also the expert classes.
I guess I am going to try the free trial first and take it from there.
Hi, and I agree with you. I would start with the free trial. Take your time and learn what you can. The first few lessons are free, and you can learn a lot from them.
If you have any questions or need help with anything, feel free to reach out.
I have been a premium member at Wealthy Affiliate for about 3weeks now, and honestly speaking, my experience on the platform as a premium member so far has been fantastic, with the trainings and courses they offer alongside so many other features. You can imagine how the premium plus membership will be even more fantastic. For now I will stick with the premium membership, with plans to upgrade to the premium plus membership later on.
That is awesome to hear, and I wish you luck with everything. The premium membership does have a ton of training and a lot of other benefits with it. I think you have a good plan to consider upgrading in the future.
Thanks for stopping by. If you have any questions or need guidance, let me know.
Hello there!
That is a great and completely correct article. I completely agree with you that the changes made on the website is actually a good thing to see, I’m really excited about it.
Truly, it’s nice when you are in the loop on what is going on. Wealthy Affiliate is no different and it is one of the many reasons I also joined this awesome community as well.
Thanks
That is awesome, and welcome aboard. I hope you find it to be as helpful as I have. Let me know if I can help you out in any way, especially setting up your website.
Hi Eric!
Great job you did here on this article. Thank you for sharing this in depth. I never knew that wealthy affiliate had a premium plus program. Now that I know, I am so interested in going up to the premium plus seeing all the benefits you have stated. Wealthy Affiliate is the best online platform out there so there is no way one could see this opportunity and miss out. To those who havent gotten the funds could be patient before they go on to upgrade.
Very true, the Plus is pretty awesome. The added benefits with Plus is HUGE.
I have really liked the Jaaxy Enterprise. It’s much easier and faster to use.
I would suggest starting with the Premium, to make sure it’s something that you really enjoy.
