Do Not Doubt Anything - It Does Work
I have had a really nice surprise . One of my post titles has made page 1 on google! It has 356 searches a month according to Jaaxy.
I picked a really competitive niche before understanding what I should have done, but decided to plug along anyway and learn the basics.
Another keyword has been alternating between page 3 and 4 for ages. It has 1200 searches a month.
Actually all my keywords were indexed within a couple of days of posting. The site is new but I have the domain name for about 8 years. Don't know if that helps much but I doubt it does.
I knew absolutely nothing about ranking for keywords before joining WA!
I have not got a lot of content up either because of time problems with a full time job, so I am really encouraged to discipline myself a bit more now to do so.
So for anyone who may be impatient or discouraged don't lose faith. Don't obsess over this either. Just keep writing the best content you can (and it does get easier with practice) and results will come.
When you see it works for you it takes that little nagging doubt away from the back of your mind. I hoped to see progress in another 4 or 5 months, but it just shows if you optimise your post and do as instructed you do not even need lots of content to get going.
Hope this encourages you to keep believing and to know that it will happen if it has not already done so for you.

I really enjoy hearing about people being successful. Congratulations and thank you for sharing your success. It inspires! Best wishes.
Thank you Marilyn. You are right to call it successful. It is a step on the way, this is what I am learning. Then when all the steps start to come together over time, there is a different level of success. Everyone can do this, and I look forward to seeing other posts like this.
It is a start Debbi, from a complete beginner to ranking and should give encouragement to believe in the training.
Thanks Shelita, I am just like everyone who started here, had my doubts but have now proved it to myself. There can be no going back now and I know anyone can do the same.
Thanks Rosalyn, I just wanted to share this to show anyone can do it by following the training.
Thank you Kim, I know you are doing great and have experienced what is possible for anyone who perseveres.
Thank you for the motivation! It does get discouraging at times and this helps keep me going so I can work a little harder.
I know, and I think the main thing is to enjoy it also. Trying to force results will not work, you put pressure on yourself.
