Just doing my homework :
Hi everyone, Bryan here. I wanted to share my progress with you all because Kyle said so. Lol. I started with the free trial and didn't even log in until 10 days later. I had to try and build my website without the benefit of discussion access, but did my best to get something out there. Once I got deeper into the building and promoting of the site, it was clear that I needed to go premium.
That began January 15th, and since then, I've completely redone my site. I attended a couple of Jay's Webinars, and started creating pages of low hanging fruit. The plan is to start building traffic with the less competitive keywords, and as site trust builds, go after the more competitive, high traffic keywords. The plus is that I now have 20 pages, maybe 10 with content, all relating to low hanging fruit on my painting site, but no blogs. I'm not sure that's what Jay had in mind.
Anyway, I feel like I'm learning and growing everyday, and I have the utmost confidence that if I continue building my sites the way WA teaches, I'll be able to monetize my site, do this full time and even retire someday. I hope you're all having great success as well.
My 2 sites are http://hombusinessforprofit.com and http://freepaintingadvice.com The painting website is the only one I'm currently building.

Thanks Jazmin, I'm actually really excited right now... I just applied to be an affiliate so I can start monetizing my site! The only down side is that they only pay a 6% commission, and according to my most recent training, that's really low. I thought it was good after seeing Home Depot only pays 3% and Sherwin Williams pays nothing, I submitted a question to Kyle just a minute ago... should hear back in a day or so. Thank you so much for the encouragement Jasmin, it means a lot. :)
You're very welcome Bryan, you'll find there are other affiliate sites that pay higher commissions. I'm happy to hear you're enjoying your journey, that's what it's all about. Best wishes:)
Hey Bryan! Wonderful progress and awesome growth. I am very happy for you! At this pace it won't be long that you will get the monetizing part under your belt and then, in time, you will start to see all this hard work paying off.
I'm cheering for you!

Hi Linda, thank you SO much, you're awesome! This is an excerpt from a response I made to a friend named Jasmin, but it fits your comment. I'm actually really excited right now... I just applied to be an affiliate so I can start monetizing my site! The only down side is that they only pay a 6% commission, and according to my most recent training, that's really low. I thought it was good after seeing Home Depot only pays 3% and Sherwin Williams pays nothing, I submitted a question to Kyle just a minute ago... should hear back in a day or so. So that's where the monetizing part is. At this point, I'll do a cartwheel after earning a buck! lol
Hey there, Bryan!
I am totally excited for you and about you. You have embraced the courses, are doing the lessons and related tasks and moving ahead quite nicely. Why in no time at all you are going to pass me right by. That's okay...it would in fact be fantastic! I would love to see that circle of loved ones around you benefiting from all your hard work (your profile pic look like a pic from a studio and has your family surrounding you).
Well, I'm gonna hit the hay...droopy eyes and an early rising to get the baby off to school...it will be here all too soon!

Boy, you're not kidding. Just trying to verify my websites, I went through the Google one... simple enough, then got to Bing and figured, I know how to do this! Wrong! Watch the darn video Bryan! lol Thanks for the support and best of luck to you David.
Hi Shawn, I sure will. I saw you on the message board today helping people out. I'm Bryan, it's nice to meet you sir! Hopefully, if you're bored sometime, you might take a peek at my website? I won't leave the link as my purpose here is to say hi. (plus as an ambassador, I'm sure you could find it) lol
I like your layout, but I would move the search over to the right hand side widget area.
Remove the meta box, that does not need to be there
Removing Your Meta Box
Nice work, it is coming along quite well :)
Good idea, they look tacky and unprofessional. They tell an experienced marketer that you are a beginner
Oh, lol, I had to page up to my comment about the Meta tags, I thought for a second you were referring to my webpages. lol I was like, he's blunt! haha!

Thanks Tom, good to hear from you too! I still have a lot of work to do on my websites, but it really is fun learning and trying new things.
I agree with you.
