Finally Did It!

I am glad to say that I have finally finished the Certification Training! Yes, it took me a lot longer than I had anticipated. A surprise health challenge came about and things have been stalled for some time, unfortunately.Sometimes, things just do not happen as you wish or plan. However, it was my desire to finish the training, and I have done so today. So, this short post is to let you know that I am happy to have completed the training. Through the training and conversations with season

It Took 5 Days

Hello!I am happy to write this to let my fellow members and friends here at WA know that another post of mine was indexed recently by Google!It was the most recent post which I've written. I had completed and published it on May 25th, and it was indexed by Google on May 30th. That is the day I received the notification e-mail stating such. This did give me a sense of accomplishment for the hard work I have been putting in to building my business. I feel that five (5) days is not that long (a

I Want to Say "Thanks!"

Hi, everyone!Here is a short post with a BIG "Thank you!" I wanted to write and thank Site Support for responding quickly to my inquiries (or issues) that I've had last week. I had written several times and, each time, I got a reply within a very short time. Each issue was resolved.WA is the best platform out there, and I am glad to be a part of this community! When there is a technical issue, Support is truly supporting us and providing members with excellent service and a professional man

Remember To Do This.

Hello, Fellow Members!This is a post to help you in case you are an Amazon Associate and add their affiliate links to your site/s. I really do like being an affiliate of theirs, but I wanted to share this.A few months ago, I had two (2) websites listed on Amazon to which I was adding affiliate links. (Each site had its own name and number.)About one month ago, I created a new website. Well, actually, I transferred the former domain's contents to the current one. I had not thought to add the

Completed Another Level

Hi, everyone!So, I am happy to announce that I have now completed another level of the Certification Training! I am enjoying going through the training by Kyle and learning quite a bit! Yes, there is a lot to do, and to remember. But what I've found to be very helpful is to take notes as I progress with the training. (I use a marble notebook ... yes, the old-fashioned way ... lol!) In doing so, I can refer back to my notes for future reference. Of course, you can use whichever method you

Moving Up .

Hello!I just wanted to share this short message here. I've moved up in the training and completed additional lessons. So, my certification level has gone up by 1.I wish to complete the training and hope to be able to take the time to go through it more quickly, from this day forward, than I was able to in the past. There were just some obstacles that kept me from moving on more quickly, but it's not a race. It is about being consistent and staying focused. My plan is to continue with these

What Do You Think About It?

Hello, Fellow Members!If anyone has been a member before this past week, he or she would have noticed the new and improved UX here at Wealthy Affiliate. Before any changes were made, I thought it was pretty good, to be honest. However, now that the new UX format is in place, I have to say that I am THRILLED with it. I love the color scheme and, most of all, the way everything is so well organized. The "Live Events" notification is a great addition. It's also great that "Websites" has every

Making Purchases from Your Family

Hello!This thought just came to my mind, and I felt compelled to write about it. I would like to share my thoughts with those of you who have taken the time to read this post. So, we all need to buy things: some items are bought out of sheer need or necessity while others are impulse purchases (those things that we can survive without but REALLY want)! I know that I buy many things on impulse and, most of the time, I'm happy with the decision I have made. There are those things that I take

I Could Not Believe It!

Hello, WA Family!Today I conducted a search via Jaaxy and was surprised to learn that my website made it to Google's first page, second position! I did not believe it, but Kyle confirmed, as he was in Live Chat when I mentioned this and questioned whether it was so! Maybe I thought I was seeing things ... LOL! And, yes, they were good things that I saw!So, it took a few months and that is just fine with me! I have been adding posts regularly to my site and also following Kyle's wonderful tr

My Content Has Been Indexed With Google

Happy Easter, and Passover, everyone!Spring is my favorite season ... a time for me reflect and be grateful for things, big and small! Seeing buds, once again, getting ready to bloom into gorgeous flowers! Along with this, there is a great sense of joy and rejuvenation! So, this is just a short post that I wanted to share with you to let you know that my content for one of my sites is now indexed with Google, as I've gotten the e-mail from Kyle and Carson notifying me of this! I am glad to b
