Absolutely U-N-B-E-L-I-E-V-A-B-L-E!

Hello to all my friends and followers here on Wa! I have something to share! As many of you know, I wrote a blog a few days ago saying I had FINALLY figured out Pinterest. Unfortunately, right after I wrote that, things got a little crazy around here. My husband was bitten by a spider on his lower calf. It enlarged to about 6 inches around and became infected. The doctor said he had a staph infection and he was concerned he would develop sepsis! So we went to the doctor every day for 7 days! We also had to put antibiotics on it and he had to take antibiotics for 10 days. The first one did not work and so he had to switch to a much stronger one. Thank goodness, that worked and we finally got it under control. It is almost gone now.

Then as that was winding down, I became seriously ill from severe dizziness. I suffer, on occasion, from Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV). I had this once before in January, 2014 and spent 6 days in the hospital until they diagnosed me. I could not turn my head or lean over or do much of anything for 3 1/2 months! That is how long that episode lasted! I ended up in the hospital again on Tuesday, 9/25. They only kept me for the day and then released me. They just wanted to make sure I was not having a stroke or a brain aneurysm. They did an MRI and a CAT Scan. Both were normal. So, once again, I am a dizzy blonde (as my husband likes to call me!)

Now that I have explained the delay, I want to get to the news! I have had 545 monthly views on my Pinterest for the last couple of months. About 5 days ago, I started creating my own pins to put on my own boards. Pins only take about 10 minutes to create. So in between all the craziness, I was creating pins. I checked my boards today, AND ----- in the last 5 days I have gone from 545 monthly views to: THREE THOUSAND FOUR HUNDRED MONTHLY VIEWS!!My views have increased more than 6 TIMES in 5 DAYS! I am in total shock!! I still cannot believe it! I kept going back and looking at the numbers because I was sure I made a mistake!! NOPE!! No mistake! This is for real!!

So for those of you that are not using Pinterest, I think you should seriously consider learning how to use Pinterest. I have been studying another course I took, and the lightbulb finally went off! I have not had any sales yet, but I imagine it is only a matter of time before that happens. I wanted to wait until I had some sales, but I just could not contain my excitement!! And believe me, I will be tracking this very closely over the next few weeks! I still do not know how this happened. The only thing I did was create my own pins on my own boards?? Once you figure it out, it is really easy to do!

Also, if you are a newbie, take the time to set up your Pinterest account and start growing your boards. I think I have about 35 boards. Only 6 of them pertain to my niche. You need at least 15 - 20 boards and at least 30 pins on each board. It will probably take several months to grow your boards to the point that you will start getting a lot of views. SO NOW IS THE TIME TO START!!

Go through the Pinterest training here on WA, and also look at some of the other members that have done Pinterest training. After you have done that, if you need help, I would be glad to try and help you. You can also private message me if you get stuck! I am not that smart when it comes to Pinterest. It has taken me a long time to figure this out! So don't expect it to happen overnight. If you start Pinterest when, or shortly after, you start your website, everything should align down the road. Good Luck to everyone and may God bless you on your journey! Take Care.
