Experience
Neil specialises in simplifying affiliate marketing strategy, SEO for content sites, and campaign tracking so beginners can understand where their traffic comes from, how commissions are generated, and how to improve performance over time.
His practical approach centres on clarity and structure. Rather than overwhelming readers with jargon, he breaks concepts down using diagrams, tables, visual walkthroughs, surveys, quizzes, and tools such as affiliate commission calculators to make strategies easier to apply in the real world.
He also runs AfProgs.com, where he reviews affiliate programs and helps beginners understand which opportunities are worth pursuing. You can learn more about Neil’s background on his About page.
At AxeMyJob, the focus is simple: build steady traffic, track performance properly, improve conversions, and grow income sustainably. No hype. No fantasy deadlines. Just measurable progress.
Neil’s philosophy is straightforward:
No “get rich quick.”
No rented supercars.
No guru theatrics.
Just systems that compound with patience and consistency.
Think of him as your 9–5 exit planner (minus the ski mask).
When he’s not building or refining online projects, Neil enjoys classic car shows, car boot sales, retro toy and gaming markets, travelling to warmer climates like Tenerife, hiking, and catching up with family and friends over a caramel latte.
Education
Neil Richard studied Business Studies at Ashby School Sixth Form, earning a GNVQ in Business Studies.
He has since expanded his business knowledge through structured training and practical execution at Wealthy Affiliate since 2013.
His expertise is grounded in application: building sites, tracking campaigns, analysing data, and improving performance over time.
Upcoming Projects
Neil’s long-term goal is to help 1 million beginners turn affiliate marketing into reliable, full-time income that's strong enough to replace a 9–5 job.

If you’re serious about building something sustainable and not chasing shortcuts, this is where that journey starts.
