Four Year Anniversary At WA. The Year of AI!
(Image created by DALL-E 3)
Hi WA Friends!
So, where does the time go? They say time flies when you're having fun, and it's been a blast getting to know and learn from many of you here!
After four years at Wealthy Affiliate, you may have noticed that I'm a little different than most writers. I'm in the guitar niche, so I don't talk a lot (or at all) about how to make money online.
I won't go through a list of all that I've done because I haven't really done much. Lol
Still, I hope that along the way, you've found a few of my posts helpful or at least entertaining. 😎
I'm looking forward to playing with all the new toys and automation yet to come at WA, and I hope you are, too!
Wishing you all continued success in 2024, the Year of AI! 🤖
Keep On Rockin' It! 🤘⚡️🤘

Congrats about your 4 years at WA. I am a few months past my 1at year here. I need to get back in the groove of things and get my site to where I would like it. I have a camping vacation niche that I have worked on. I see the differance with AI already and id imagine it can get better. You must have had quite an adventure that your at your 4th year. Best of luck and continue with what you like doing at WA.
Hi Frank,
Congratulations on the four-year mark! Thank you for the well wishes too!
Have you achieved financial success, that would allow you to quit a good paying job, here with WA?
I'm stuck with Keywords. There is something that I'm not doing right, so I keep playing with Keywords.
I would like to see your guitar site. I play Blues, mostly on my Gibson LP Tribute, but I love Strats as well. Gob Bless!

Thanks Tom!
I’m a semi-retired physician, so this is more of a music hobby for me.
Stick with the longer tail keywords until your site begins to get traction and domain authority.😎

Thank you for the info on the longer tail keywords. I'm going to take a look at your site now.

Hi Frank,
I just finished an overview of your site. It contains a wealth of information, and I won't hesitate to refer to it.
I noticed on the "ask me anything" page that there is no direct link to ask questions from that bulk of the page.
It says to ask you from the "appropriate area". I did not find that area, (just a friendly FYI). It appears that the "Leave a Comment" section way below is the area that you are referring to.
Awesome site, however! What site are you using for your mailing list and to send the autoresponder for your E-Book? I have an E-Book too and want to make exactly what your site does. Thanks and God Bless.
Tom
Thanks, Tom! So glad you like it! 😎
I'll have a look at that page and see what needs to be simplified.
I use Aweber autoresponder for sending the eBook, which I keep in my WordPress media library as a .pdf file.
I definitely enjoy your posts, Frank.
We all have our own niches and yours is clearly guitar and music, which is still inspiring.
Seeing someone follow their passion always motivates me to follow mine. Just my thoughts!
Happy anniversary! 🤘🎸

Hi Isaiah
I super appreciate that! 🙏
Fortunately, there are an abundance of musicians, like , yourself, at WA. 🎶
We have a very talented group here! 😎
Rock On! 🤘

Good morning Frank,
That's amazing, Frank, it's amazing how quickly time goes when you're having fun! I know you are a very large contributor to the platform. I think one of the things that makes the platform so interesting is that people come from different walks of life and can share different types of knowledge.
I think it's great to have a proper muso on the platform, it helps to make the platform rock!🎸🎸👍 May you have many more enjoyable years on the platform, Frank and be able to share your knowledge with others.
I agree with you, Frank, it's good to look forward to all the new toys that will be coming on the platform. It's also good to learn from other people like yourself, as I think you quite enjoy experimenting with AI and learning etc.
All the best to you.
Roy
Thanks so much, Roy! 🙏
Yeah, years can fly by quickly before we even realize it.
I belong to a lot of professional websites, but WA is my favorite by far! 😃
I was born with SSOS (Super Shiny Object Syndrome), haha, and AI is the ultimate shiny object.
Have fun with all the new tools coming, and I hope the world uses AI in all the best possible ways.
Rock On! 🤘⚡️🤘
Frank 🎸
It's always a pleasure, Frank!
It really is unbelievable where the time goes, it's so important to spend time wisely!
I know where you're coming from, Frank. I write on a few forums, but Wealthy Affiliate is by far my favourite and so much more friendly than many other platforms! Some forums are almost bordering on aggressive!
Can you actually be born with super shiny object syndrome!? I must admit I have suffered from the serious disease (SSOS) in the past, but I seem to have overcome it now! However, there was a cost to pay! At least you can tell everyone all the features of AI, Frank, that has to be a good thing!
It will be interesting to see the new features and tools coming up on the platform, Frank.
Have a great day and keep on rocking.🎸🎸

Hi Roy
I have a bit of an obsession with always getting the latest thing, especially guitars, amps, and effects. Lol 🤩
It can be as counterproductive as it is fun so it’s always a bit if a trade off.
My family would probably say I was born this way. Haha 😎
Rock On! 🤘
Frank 🎸
Hello Frank,
I understand where you're coming from, Frank; I'm sure it's quite exciting to have the latest guitar gear, etc.! At least guitar gear has a second-hand value if you don't require it any more.
I often think of a shiny object more like something that is completely useless, especially when it comes to Internet marketing! Something like a program that's turnkey, and you spend 10 minutes a week and you become a millionaire within a month! Or so they say! That was the sort of thing I was looking at when I first started out online; it wasn't clever!
I think there are so many things that can be counterproductive in life. Sometimes, we might think a piece of software is going to be useful or a social media account. But all it does is take us away from what we should be doing and actually holds us back!
The good thing is with guitar gear, you can have some great fun with it!
I hear you, Frank! Often, families think differently from outsiders! I'm sure if I saw your guitar collection and gear I would be utterly amazed and totally fascinated!
Keep on rocking and have a great day.

Hi Roy
Haha, I still have the first cheap Sears “Silvertone” electric guitar and amp that I started playing in middle school and my 1970 Fender Stratocaster that I bought in high school.
I modified the Strat a lot over the years so it lost some of its resale value. It’s got Seymour Duncan prototype Hot Rail pickups that I tested out before they were marketed.
I switched out the neck for one with a 15-inch fingerboard radius and added a Kahler double-locking tremolo.
My WA profile page has pics of the majority of the guitars and amps in my music room.
I have others scattered throughout the house so I can play wherever I happen to be. Lol 😎
Frank 🎸
Hello Frank,
That's brilliant, Frank, how amazing! I hope you will hang onto that guitar and amp, that's really quite amazing!
That's interesting about your Fender Stratocaster, Frank. That would make a great blog post on all the modifications that you have made and tested etc. It could even be a series of blog posts, I guess.
It's great that you are so enthusiastic about the music and you really know your stuff, Frank! I think it is wonderful to have a passion, and it's definitely good to have a passion for music.
I think you must have a very understanding wife, Frank!😁
Sleep well, Sir!
Roy
Hi Roy
Haha, Stacy is a real gem!
It’s not as bad as I probably made it sound, but I need a “couch guitar” for when we’re not watching TV in the living room together, right? Lol 😎
Several people have asked me about my living room guitar rig, so maybe I'll do a WA blog about it.
Rock On! 🤘
Frank 🎸
Hi Roy
I just wrote this post, Enjoy! Lol 😎 Are You getting Your Daily Dose of Relaxation? Try TV Guitar! Rock On! 🤘
Frank 🎸
Hello Frank,
That's fantastic to hear, Frank, good for you!👍
Of course, it's important that you have a guitar on standby and ready when needs arise! It's always good to spend time wisely and not waste a moment! I believe I'm right in saying that Angus Young used to practice in the bathroom!
That would be an interesting post, Frank. And maybe some of those posts could be turned into YouTube videos, just a thought?
Enjoy your day.
Roy
That's amazing, Frank, I think our comments must've almost crossed! I wrote a comment 1 minute ago and you wrote a comment 1 minute ago!
I will have a look, Frank; thank you.
Keep on rocking!
Roy
Hi Roy
Haha, I have a travel guitar in my music room bathroom, but I'm no Angus Young. Lol 😎
Rock On! 🤘
Frank 🎸
Lol! 👍👍😎🎸
