This post was meant to be a short answer for a discussion in Digital point forum about membership sites comparison. I did try to make simple answer, at the end i just realized i already spend few hours to write what i got in mind.
You might want to check for the link given to know what is this all about.
Feel free to comment and feel free to ask anything about E1KaD or anything, i’ll try my best and i’d be glad to to answer. Please check for my E1KaD Review, you might get clear view about what is E1KaD if you read through my review before reading through this post.
HI Jason & bimawarrior,Thanks for the great advise you gave here.
bimawarrior, you seems to join a lot of membership site, have you really go through all the content and material from the membership site you join? you mention there’s another 3 membership site you’re joining right now, is it good or bad? dont you feel there’s information overloaded and not sure where to start when there’s too much information given?
I’m been with DP and WF for quite sometimes now, but not really an active member, you’re right, you can find any information here and there by using the search function and members are very supportive too, but you have to know the foundation and follow the lesson step by step as a newbie first before you know what question you gonna ask right? the forum is too broad and you hardly know which one to focus for unless you already have something in mind..
I am going to have a try on earn1kaday, let’s see how it goes for couple of months first, WA is also great, but as a newbie, i believe earn1kaday can help me more to achieve my success…
thanks folks for all your advice here, you people are really awesome!
No problem Ivy, glad that i am able to share my 2cents.
If you ask whether i went through all the content and material like i am in WA, i’d say yes i do. If you ask whether i went through all peps talk, read all the threads, i’d say no i don’t do that. With limited time i got i have to be picky.
Hey, i have to spare time to run my own shop and i am using dial up connection which charged as timebased of $1/hour (yeah, i’m living in stone age, lol). It’s pain in my pocket if i have to look around reading something that don’t contribute mainly to what i really need.
So, I just went to sticky posts and major posts (post with high reply and viewed). I read through them and if i found its interesting i’ll copy paste it and keep it in my organized folder and re read it when i am offline.
I usually go through this process only for the first week of my membership, and if i found its interesting, i’ll read for more and sometimes give a thread a comment or two and share my 2cents just like this. If i find it’s not that interesting, i’ll rarely give comment or contribute. I’ll just go through the whole important things i can get from the forum till my membership ends.
Some will say what i’m doing is waste of money and in-effective, i won’t object.
I do waste money, I “like” wasting money on Internet Marketing because i know it’s for good reasons such as :
I am wasting money to educate myself.
Education is the best investment one could give to themself as it will last for their life time. I see educating myself on Internet Marketing is nothing to lose for. As i can apply most of what i learned on IM into my real life into my retail shop with 22 of employee to feed.
Before jump into IM i never though of how to value my time.
That is the first and maybe one of the most important thing i ever learned from IM.
I learned that from the very first paid membership i joined (in beginning of February if i’m not mistaken). It was $1 for 2week trial signup, they gave free ebook for their member. It was simple but really deep, it talk about how to success in life especially in IM. I have re-read for few times already. Unfortunately i can’t commit myself to that membership since it was so expensive for me.
IM open my mind about outsourcing. It gave me a great advantage on my business now. My old mindset was to do ALL i could do by myself to save some money, which later i realized i should consider more than just to save money.
I could spend a day mumbling about what i have learned from Internet Marketing that i applied to my business for these few month alone 
I am wasting money to learn how to make money.
I like the saying, you will need to spend some money to get more money.
People said you can make money without money in IM. such as by doing bummarketing promoting affiliate products. But I won’t say bummarketing can be done without spendmoney at all, because you still will need to invest some time and money for at least paying your internet subscribtion (talkin about $1/hour dial-up connection here,lol)
I am wasting money to find the best membership where i can be part of community and ‘plant’ my self for time to come.
I have a firm believe that to be success in life especially in Internet Marketing one will need a community to support, the better if you can find or pay a good mentor.
I like what Napoleon Hill wrote in Think and Grow Rich
You will become like people who you spend your time the most with.
Yea, maybe that is not the exact phrase, but sort of i might need to read that book once again.
So with the mind of to find the best community (in this term forum) as fast as possible, i spend my money as much as i can afford than stop and dig into one or two that i see could give most benefit for me for future to come.
I don’t feel i waste money on bad membership i paid for. I always try to look something positive from what i do.
Even the worse membership i joined still has something i can learn from.
The membership was on WSO, the sales letter the testimonial etc, was pretty damn good, and i was lured. Two weeks from the date i sign up, bang! the site was offered to sell here in DP and sitepoint. In my understanding the owner use the number of member joined as his selling point. What did i learn? To be more carefull before buying anything from WSO.
Read big mike’s Warrior Forum Manifesto to help you “save” yourself from WSO’s
That last point is maybe the main reason i subscribe to few membership in a time.
I was looking for the right place where i can hone my knowledge as fast as possible which is through paid membership forum.
Free forum like WF can be as good as well, but i still see paid site will do better.
As E1KaD, i can have the resources i need in one place. I don’t actually need to buy anything more to educate myself, as there is a lot of things to learn provided and set to be downloaded in download area.
Have you ever heard that by read one ebook about how to make money online actually can help you make money online if you act upon it? You can find many free ebooks in the internet with various quality, but you can get a lot selected ebook in download E1KaD’s area.
Oh btw, i forgot the cons of WF. I you are like me, you might need to stay a little bit far from WF’s WSO thread. I found its hard for me to refuse buying WSO thrown everyweek, lol. Maybe this can also be a reason that justify me to be a member of paid membership rather than only as a member of WF 
Reading people’s opinion and discussing which membership is better, won’t give you a very good insight. Especially when it comes to membership that already has a great buzz like WA and E1KaD. It will only give you a bigger curiosity, at least on me.
So, the best way to solve your curiosity is by jump and pay the forum admission fee and make yourself wet.
Than decide which one to keep.
I think to know which one is better is depend on your needs. Maybe you should ask yourself what do you want and need from a membership. Do you really need paid one? How much you willing to pay? There is so many factor, its all back to you.
I have just jump and learn about IM last January, i even started my blog in the new year ever. I tell you this so you can see i am not a better IM than you are.
At first, i don’t really know what i need. I just spend money from ebook to ebook, WSO to WSO.
But with time pass by, you will eventually know what you will need to learn and focus on, you will know what you need to pay for.
bimawarrior, you seems to join a lot of membership site, have you really go through all the content and material from the membership site you join? you mention there’s another 3 membership site you’re joining right now, is it good or bad? dont you feel there’s information overloaded and not sure where to start when there’s too much information given?
Sorry if my post was not detailed, three other membership i joined was all PLR membership, where the membership service is providing people will downloadable PLR and Resell Right Products. I joined with a mind to resell those products and to use some of them for my ‘niche project’. Two of them provide member forum where people can share their though and learn how to’s of PLR business one of them don’t. It just provide a download section, i’ll quit from the other two and stick to the one.
I am going to have a try on earn1kaday, let’s see how it goes for couple of months first, WA is also great, but as a newbie, i believe earn1kaday can help me more to achieve my success…
That’s really a great decision! I believe you will find gems in E1KaD, but i do warn you E1KaD was not designed for newbie in mind. It was designed more for experienced IM’ers, i still recommend WA if you really are newbie as i was few months ago, and you’re in doubt what you need to learn about to success in IM. But i doubt you are newbie And it’s all about your preference
Anyway, if any of you who read this post and convinced to join E1KaD and don’t have any preference where to join E1KaD from, i’d be thankfull if you join from my link here :
I know some people would like to search for bonus on signup, i did too
In my experience I don’t think you will need bonus to signup on E1KaD as you will find everything you need in E1KaD already, and you will not want to confuse your mind by learning different things.
Anyway if you do want bonus, here is my offer, you can get bonus on any WSO on sale or any PLR product that has the right to be put on membership sites or can be given away.
I was thinking to give a first month ‘$10 cashback’ for people who sign up from my link. But i won’t since it just gonna devalue E1KaD.
Drop me an email to hendra at hokkymart dot com and notice me here by posting a comment, i’ll see what i can do for you.
Please be remind this offer is limited time as i am trying to figure out what bonus should be compliment to E1KaD’s membership
Heck this post was supposed to be short answer isn’t it?
Feel free to comment and feel free to ask anything about E1KaD or anything, i’ll try my best and i’d be glad to to answer.
