Number one fan of the search bar
So I've been here a few weeks now. I've been on WA most days, either connecting with people or working hard to get my website up and running by working the steps. (I kind of feel like I'm working the steps in AA, only here I'm trying to become addicted to something.) But I've been watching tons of new members sign up each day and get started. And here's what I've noticed.
No one is using that BEAUTIFUL search bar that's located at the top of the site.
I LOVE that thing! I love that thing ALMOST as much as I love the Keyword tool. Almost as much as I love Kyle and Carson for all they've dreamt up for us. Almost as much as some of the really cool people I've met on here that I talk to almost every day. That search bar accesses everything in the WA world! I ask it 400 million questions a day and EVERY SINGLE TIME I get back some relevant information that answers my question. (400 million could be a slight exaggeration, but not by much.) Sometimes I need clarification from a human, but at least I feel like I'm asking an informed question by then.
How come more people aren't using the search bar? The only reason I know they aren't is because they are asking questions I totally searched and found answers for instantly. I know how it is to want to work on something and you get stuck, and you put a question out there and have to wait for a response. And even though the live chat is super cool, sometimes you still feel like like time stands still while you're trying to get your issues resolved. (I notice that too because someone will ask a question and then four minutes later if they don't have an answer they repeat the question in all caps. Teehee) The search box bypasses all of the waiting!
Oh, it's wonderful.
So hey, fellow newbies, get to searching! We have stumbled upon THE BEST RESOURCE in the UNIVERSE for building a healthy website in Wealthy Affiliate. I have no doubt about that. It's like the chocolate fudge sundae of websites, and that search bar is the cherry on top!
Thanks again Kyle and Carson! You guys ROCK!

Thank you for such a detailed description of our search bar! It made me think and, changed my view about it. I've only been here for a few days, and I was guilty of not using it myself like I should have been. Yes, I was one of those who asked questions that was in the search bar. All excuses aside, the search bar is where I'll go first!
Sincerely,
Karen
HaHa Karen! I hope I didn't offend anyone with my post. I meant more that the answers are so much more easily (and quickly) attained using the search bar. Nothing takes place of all the human help you can get around here though. Best wishes to you! Are you liking it here so far?
Amy
No, no offence taken at all Amy! If we are to learn from others I need to keep an open mind, and stay humble! Using the search bar is more helpful then I thought!
And YES, I'M LOVING IT SO FAR!
Woo hoo! I think we found a good one. :)
Thank you for the compliment Amy! YOU ROCK!
