Just joined PREMIUM and hoping I don't regret it.

I signed up for a starter membership over a month ago and never got around to utilizing it to it's full potential (read more here - Getting Started... Again ). By the time I logged in to start interacting with the community, I had been blocked and prompted that only premium members could access this or that.

I hate being asked to pay for stuff - doesn't everybody? But isn't what this whole thing is about?!

So I went against my better judgement and took the plunge. Well not "the plunge"... that's not for another year or so.

Anyway, in the time since I first joined WA, I started building a site on my own - Online Marketing Experiment - I had a bit of experience with minor web development... so I decided to jump in. Ahead of WA instructions... hell, I haven't even gotten to that step. But I was so anxious to DO SOMETHING, and I was locked out of any useful WA resources here. And one thing I did learn from the first couple intro videos was to TAKE ACTION.... so I did just that.

And here I am.

The start of my journey. As skeptical as I am, I look forward to the experience.

Would love to hear what you all have to think about my site, your own site, WA, or internet marketing in general.

Thanks!
