Celebrate small victories!
Earlier today, I received an email stating that my blog/site has been indexed by Google. Ordinarily, I would not have made anything of this. However, I learned that it is important to celebrate small victories.
This is one of the small steps on my journey to building a meaningful online business. One that helps connect small businesses with customers and thereby generating leads.
This milestone- albeit small- makes me feel good. And it motivates me to continue writing more helpful and insightful posts for small and medium sized businesses.

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.
We should always celebrate any victory Godwin, no matter the size!
Very well done my friend and all the very best for the future!
