Hiya Bobby, you are getting some great comments already... you are welcome to check out my posts on my profile page, for motivation , encouragement and a few design tips. Firstly you need an attention grabber as your reader hits your first 'bit' so they know they arrived to the right page. then to confirm it is worth their while to stay... you need to understand your visitor and 'hold' their attention. So how do you do this? How well do you know your visitor and what motivates them/ What is their 'problem? - and your solution to that problem"?

You are best to answer these questions above.
As for style and structure a few tips I would encourage is length aim for around 500 - 1000 words. consider the 'attention span of your visitors'

Stick with around 3 - 10 points or issues or products.

Don't try to tell people everything about everything in one post rather 'SHOW' them what more they want to find out, direct them to a 'call to action'.

Stick with the Post theme in this case "What is Functional Training?" in fact I may even consider moving "How can functional Training help me?" into another post / page - But most importantly - LINK from and between pages in your website - Google loves this apparently.

I am still learning how to write better posts and offer you this one as an example - notice the general concept is similar to yours as in telling someone about a bigger picture to a problem and then offering a range of ways to achieve the bigger picture. My intention here is to then break down and write more in depth about each method of earning money... and perhaps offer a review or comparison or someone's what worked story ... you could do similar with each of your points, methods, examples, products etc... Definitely need more interesting imagery perhaps even a video to better Show people what they can expect. here are a couple of other motivational posts I have done...

Ron's right Bobby. I think you definitely need headings to break up your content, and some larger graphics to add interest. However the content itself is well written and informative.

Thanks I added headings and some more pictures and it definitely looks a lot better. I haven't written this much since college so I'm not very confident but your feedback really helps me. Thanks again

Hi Bobby, Great information. But I would recommend that you a just two or three additional graphics above your first one. There is so much text that it could turn a user away. The content is great and very helpful.

You might also want to use a few headings to break up all the text. Headings allow natural pauses for the readers.

Great Job overall!

Thank you this is my longest post so far so your advice really makes sense. I'll make those adjustments.

Thanks I updated it and think it looks much better

Oh yes, just those few changes made a world of difference. Great job!

If I do a keyword search on Jaaxy and for example the phrase comes up as "lose weight waiste now" do I need to use it exactly like that in an article or can I use lose weight

Yes, each instance of a keyword will have different search volumes, so yes match it exactly. If it isn't spelled correctly or is grammatically incorrect don't use it.

Thanks, that's what I thought Kyle said somewhere in the training but I wanted to br sure.

So far I've created 4 pages and I wrote an article on all 4. How do I now write a post and publish it to a specific page? I asked this question before but I worded it different

Individual Posts can be categorized into your desired Pages.

Thank you again. Lol I watched it again and I think I understand. I want to set it up like your front page is setup. I don't wanna sound too dumb but can you tell me what the settings are to get the homepage like that? I have my homepage set as static and when I change it to posts it kinda jacks the page up.

Adding comment to close old query off activity stream.

How do I set up all of my pages so I can put multiple posts on each page? I'm not sure if I want each page to be a blog roll or if it would be called something else. But I want

You can add posts to menu as 'sub-pages'. So these do not have to be 'category pages' which contain only posts in sub-menu. They can be mixed, pages and posts in sub-menu,
See one example in my site: go to page 'search engine optimization'.

How to do this, read here:

Thank you very much. I think I understand but like with a lot of new things I'll have to experiment to get the results I want. But I'll definitely keep checking your site because you have alot of great info.
