Roller Coaster

This great ride we have been on at WA is a roller coaster of a ride! There are ups, there are downs, there are twists and turns, and honestly there are moments of wanting to hurl. But we stay on. And if the ride ends we get back on.

No one said that being an online entrepreneur would be easy. In fact everyone from Kyle and Carson down has said that we would have to put a lot of work into this new career and to not expect the first payout until we've done this for at least two months. We are constantly trying to come up with new ideas to get our sites recognized and checking our stats and socializing on the social networks. We get excited on the days we have traffic highs and think, "This is it! I'm definitely going to start making some money now!" only to have the balloon popped the next day when we see the traffic flow cut in half. Then we have to wonder, "What went wrong? How can I get those people back?" And of course the ultimate question, "When am I going to start seeing some cash flow???"

I am glad that we are all on this ride together. It would not be nearly as enjoyable if I had to do this on my own. Frankly, without your support and encouragement (especially on the turns when I feel like hurling) I would have gotten off of this ride a while back. Thank you friends for riding with me! I'm just at the two month mark, so good things are about to come. I can feel the coaster going up the incline. Here we go!!
