I Have Made The Top 200 Ranking Here At Wealthy Affiliate
Top 200 Ranking Achieved Today
Whilst working on a post to update my website a popup appeared on my screen.
Now normally I have to admit that popups annoy me but on this occasion was more than happy to see it.
Some of you will know my story but in a nutshell I decided to work on my online business when forced lockdown due to Covid 19 was introduced. I could not go out and work in my usual offline business and my last day was Friday 10th April.
I decided I had to find an opportunity out of the current situation and what better than to start at the beginning with WA.
So on the 11th April I sat down in earnest at my computer with a ranking of 183184.
10 days later on the 24th April 2020 my ranking was:
Today the 26th April I have reached Rank
187.
I know this rank will go up and down and I may well lose a top 200 ranking along the way but reaching it today is a milestone for me.
Also it is not just the ranking achievement I am proud of today.
I am also on Level 5 of Online Entreprenaur Certification and will be moving onto Affiliate Bootcamp on Monday28th April 2020.
I have completely updated my 2 websites which serve my offline flooring business and posted regularly to them.
I have chosen a niche for my online business, purchased domains, installed wordpress and have a number of posts in place.
I have installed Google Analytics and Webmaster Tools to all my websites.
A Massive Thank You
All of the above would not have been possible without all the help and encouragement I have received from members here at Wealthy Affiliate, it truly is an amazing community.

Hi Andy and well done on you getting into that top 200.
I don't advocate improving rankings for the sake of it because there are other more important reasons for being here but in going through the training, asking questions, helping and getting involved you are learning at a faster rate than just taking the training and ploughing on regardless.
As you know, those interactions all help to improve those ranks so it's a reflection and recognition of what you've achieved so far!
On a different note, have you gone through all of the appropriate stuff regarding your offline businesses' sites eg google my business, google ratings, NAP citations etc....???

Thanks Mark, always appreciate your comments.
My offline sites are long established, I have been in the business 40 yrs. Each one has well established GMB accounts which are posted to twice weekly, have good google ratings and top rankings in serps for my keywords/areas and also linked social media accounts (FB, Linked In mainly)
My online business though is in it's infancy, hence starting afresh with training here.
Cheers,
Andy.

Yea Andy!
A significant accomplishment, but not a surprise to anyone who's encountered you here at WA. What was that guy's comment about being "lucky?"
Oh yeah, luck is a loser's excuse for a winner's hard work.
Yes, a hard worker describes you Andy.
Keep it up, but you already are!
