That is awesome I was just indexed in Google as well. It's a great feeling so I can imagine what's going on with you right now congratulations and keep up the good work.
Not my first rodeo, however, this is one of the first with GREAT training where the management doesn't keep digging into my pocket every few lessons. I'm learning so much that I didn't know about WordPress. People who've built WordPress sites without the benefit of WA training can tell you This Program is the Bee's Knees of training!

Congratulations on being indexed by Google. It's a great first step. Your next step is to write good content that gets ranked for your desired keywords/search terms.
Just so that you're clear, there's a difference between being indexed and being ranked. Indexed simply means that your website's pages and posts appear in Google's database and can be found by their URLs. This happens automatically as Googlebot crawls the web but can be speeded up by using Google Search Console. Each page and post is indexed individually. There's no such thing as "the site". It's a collection of pages and posts.
Pages and posts are ranked for particular keywords/search terms. This is what you're striving for. So that your post comes up on page 1 when someone enters that keyword/search term.
Thanks for the congrats! I do know the difference between indexed and ranked but your insights gave me information i did NOT know. Thanks... I guess the difference is much like getting the keys to a new house that has NOTHING inside. You have to get your furniture and all the accoutrements to make it a home.
So I will be adding what some call the "dreaded Content" and with some time I will add a nice header and start throwing in some graphics.
Thanks again,
David
You're welcome, David. A lot of new members don't understand the difference, so I like to make it clear.
