This week has been so much better than last week. I have had good progress with the blog and have been making it through the level 4 certification course. I have been focusing on facebook, pinterest, and a little bit on twitter.

I have been enjoying Facebook much more than I thought that I would. I am using my alias and pretty much started with zero friends. It has been so much fun talking to the different people in groups. I can definitely see how people end up wasting their time on facebook.

Pinterest was a little bit more difficult. I actually adore pinterest- it is the only social network that I use in real life. It is brilliant at suggesting pins that you are actually interested in. I did not foresee that I would have so many issues uploading my images. Yesterday, I spent about 2 hours putting all my blogs on my board and then when I saw them I realized that they were just random pictures so this morning I spent about 2 more hours editing my pictures so that they were a little more appealing.

It definitely forced me out of my comfort zone- editing pictures was something that I really needed to start doing. Now I can't stop looking at them. I guess that I feel a sense of pride (or maybe I'm just narcissistic).

It was strange looking at the articles that I made a month ago and comparing them to what I have now. My writing has definitely improved. I think that the best thing to do for my writing right now is to keep practicing and developing a basic style before doing exercises on it.

Going through pinterest also helped me gain new insights into my niche and how I can market my products.

Overall, this week has been pretty good for me as far as affiliate marketing goes.
