One Month In - Patience and Time is the Name of the Game

Published on May 30, 2019

Published on Wealthy Affiliate — a platform for building real online businesses with modern training and AI.

So I reached the one month milestone and I am still feeling good about where things are at. I have a golf niche and have over 13,000 words consisting of 8 posts and 7 pages. I have over 20 different products on my site and continue to add a few each week.

My main concern at this point is getting traffic to my site (as I am sure everyone goes through this after a month). When I started creating posts and pages, they were getting indexed by Google within just a few days. My latest posts and pages have not been indexed yet and some have been over two weeks. I don't understand why I was indexed so easily to start and now I can't seem to get indexed.

Time will tell as to how things will turn out, but I am not at the point where giving up is an option. After month three if the results don't start showing any signs of progressing, then we might need to think about what's going on.

I went in to this thinking that creating a website was a pipe dream, but if I were able to get something up and running, people would find it. I was wrong about both. Creating a nice looking website that is informational with the intent to help others while trying sell a product is possible. Getting traffic to that site is by far way more difficult than I anticipated.

Hoping traffic starts to pick up a little here and there sooner rather than later. Patience is key for me right now. I know deep down traffic will come. I just watched Field of Dreams for the umpteenth time. "If you build it, (he) they will come".
