Thanks for the Welcome - First Week

Thank you to everyone that sent me a welcome. Sorry I haven't responded or even followed most people back. As you know, time is of the essence with making the right impression with Google. Once you create a site, you want Google to find the best you it can find.

I won't post a lot but since I'm wrapping up week one and it's been productive, I thought I'd share what I've accomplished (more to help me keep track than anything else).

I hope to have more time to connect as things get settled with the new site.

Done this week:

  • purchased domain
  • created custom logos for website, socials
  • customized theme
  • created shell site with disclaimers, TOS, privacy policy, affiliate notice
  • added basix GDPR and CCCPA protocols
  • created About page
  • created branded accounts: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram
  • posted first post and shared on socials
  • Drafted 9 additional posts
  • Scheduled next week posts in WP
  • Created 1 month post outline and schedule
  • Signed up for 2 key affiliate programs
  • Re-created 1 website logo due to size on mobile browsers (sometimes you have to take a step backwards)
  • Ran complete link and SEO audit
    • fixed some issues and made templates to fix in future
