Moving on to Greatness! I think!

Lesson two is coming to an end now and it's bittersweet. I'm so proud of myself and disappointed at the same time. I wanted to be farther along.

When I started I said to myself "I'm going to do this EVERY day!" "I'm going to get through all the lessons in weeks!" But that didn't happen at all. I found myself waking up and going "YES, I'm going to work on WA today." Then I would remember something I need to do before and then I would realize I won't have enough time. Ugh talk about devastation.

You know, about a year ago when I really started wanting to work from home and do work online, I saw a video on YouTube about WA. The guy was like it's a lot of work and you have to pay a monthly fee, but if you're into that then this would be great for you! I didn't know what to think.

He showed the site and I was interested. I was thinking sounds like they walk you through it. But he just didn't make it seem like it was a good idea. He stopped after lesson 1. Now I am sure there are a lot of people who do that. But I wish I could remember who that was so that I could message him and say "Are you kidding this place seems to be awesome!"

I started a blog with word press a few years ago. I did about 3 blogs and never touched it again. it didn't seem like it was fruitful. Well, wait IT WASN'T FRUITFUL! lol I had no idea what I was doing. Keywords? what? I just thought you add a lot of tags. I had no idea that you should research what people are looking for or what keywords they are using to find topic.

So, needless to say, about a year later I got a message it was time to renew my domain and I thought "oh yeah, that thing!" But now, I'm learning a lot. This is great. I want to be successful but I can't do that without knowledge. No close to me has a blog or online business. So there isn't anyone that can give me advice or help.

Funny! The assignment says to talk about my progress and I have even started. I'll keep that brief. Whoops!

Well I have started. I'm a little apprehensive about my site. I still don't know what I am doing. I downloaded google analytics and it says '0' every time I look at it. So I am hoping that it's user error and not that no one has gone to the site. But either way I have more pages on my blog now then I did when I tried to do it on my own.


I'm excited as well. I'm learning a lot. I'm thankful that I didn't let that guy turn me all the way off. I'm happy I decided to give this a shot. So I said a lot of nothing but I hope you enjoyed reading!

Thanks WA!!

just keep working at it I am ready to start on level 3

oh yes, I plan to and have been. I am currently in the middle of level 3. thanks for your comment

I am on level 3 lesson 1 maybe we can help each other

It's ok to be all over the place. You're excited and I get it because I am too. It is a lot of work but I'm looking at the final picture. That's what keeps me motivated. Best wished to you!

You're on the right path! I only signed up less than 2 weeks ago but I'm hitting the training full force....the only thing delaying my progress is writing the new articles. I won't go to the next course until I've done them all in the one I'm currently reading..I think I have 3 more before moving on. I suspect this is to get a good number of posts on my site to make it more desirable and worthy of a following. I write most of my articles on the weekend or at lunch as I work a full-time job and my husband wants me to spend time with him in the evenings so I'm doing what I to make this a success while balancing other priorities in life.

My analytics shows visitors, some from social sites others direct...what's interesting is some are out of the country so that little bit of traffic give me hope and fires me to keep on working it.

Keep it up. This site is full of great knowledge and helpful people.

Well done for your first blog on here. It doesn't matter how you start, but the key is really to keep going. Go through the training and keep adding content to your site and everything else will fall into place. Consistency and effort will reap rewards. So well done for getting here - just keep going and you can achieve your dreams. Gail
