I did it. Finally COMPLETED Level One (as a Premium member)!
I first joined WA in 2017, but due to life (and earth) circumstances and a tendency toward procrastination ... I paid for Premium for several years, but just didn't do it. I had multiple false starts and always seemed to get hung up on details (hence the name DetailsD). For example, I had a tendency to focus on design and website themes, when I should really just
FOLLOW KYLE'S TRAININGS :)
However, in 2021, four years later, I now have a real-life business partner who is counting on me to develop our website, marketing and advertising so we can get SALES of an "offline" product. I finally gave in to the pressure and pushed through and finished Level One TODAY, October 17, 2021 (just did my Jaaxy keyword searches for the FIRST TIME!!! YAY.)
From this point forward, I aim to ASK QUESTIONS if I get a gnawing hang-up about some issue with the website building.
No, I am not a designer by nature. BUT I do have a lot of writing and editing experience so focusing on WRITTEN CONTENT is what I aim to do more than anything.
P.S. Another major thing I learned this week is that I can use the FREE SITERUBIX domains as WRECK sites to experiment with themes and plugins, so that eliminates any fear I had about breaking my site! :) I have yet to try that or do site backups or transfers, but I am going to take it a step at a time and when I need help I will just ask.
Someone out there in WA land is bound to help me, right!? Right? RIGHT!

We are delighted you are going thru the training. Yes it works; Yes WA is here to answer your questions.
So glad you are doing this.
We wish you well.
Cheer!
Really like your image choices a lot. They say so very much.
You will find images very useful on your niche website too when they relate and send a message for your niche.
Well done and great to hear to are pushing through the procrastations as well.
Site Rubix website domains do have a useful purpose and as you said testing them out for themes, plugins and anything else is far better and safer than trying and ruined your real website.
Keep going forward and continue to believe in yourself
Have a great week ahead.

It's good to have learned that you are moving forward friend. Using free SiteRubix's domain as a "wreck site' to experiment with themes and plugins is unheard of. Is it legal to do if you are a premium member? If so thanks for the tip. I'm positive that if you have any questions that someone here at W.A. will help you. All the best!
Legal? Unheard of? Lol - No, actually I got the idea from several trainings right here on the WA platform - it's to test out themes and plugins. :) We get free SiteRubix domains included with our membership. Anyway thanks for the well wishes!
Unheard of on my part, I meant. Lol! I really thought that once you become a premium member, that SiteRubix is not allowed. What's the point, I thought as it is for free starters. You've been here longer than me, so you know more about this. I must have missed something. All the best!
