My Site Has Been Indexed
I have been working earnestly on the WA courses and I am just getting ready to start the 3rd course on how to make money, which is the main objective for all our hard work.
Some of my accomplishments so far:
- Setup my site - justwinereviews
- Written 3 blogs
- Site has been indexed
My main stumbling block is writing blogs. I chose the wine niche because I enjoy having a glass of wine and exploring new flavors. With that said, even though I have a passion for wine. No ideas or direction is inspiring my thirst for building my website and ultimately see some income from my efforts.
This is my 3rd attempt with joining WA and I want to succeed this time. My journey with exploring affiliate marketing has been fraught with failure, loss of my retirement investments and anger/disappointment for being naive with actually thinking I could make money.
But something always brings me back to the WA community for their support, extensive training and encouragement, So, my goal is to soak up everything I can that WA has to offer and truly succeed this time.
"Success is the result of perfection, hard work, learning from failure, loyalty, and persistence."

Super congrats and great progress, Jan!
Appreciate your blog post and share, thank you.
So that you know it means that your site was found by Google and now it is a good time to start adding content if not doing so already.
However, first your posts get indexed and often days later down the line start getting noticed provided targeted keywords are searchable, new websites can rank efficiently.
But typically "authority" for a website starts to get established through time, usually the 3-6 month mark.
They fluctuate up and down the scale till Google decides where to place them.
Not all posts will get ranked, thus the recommendation to keep updating blog 2 - 3 posts a week and that's for the foreseeable future.
And just for some clarifications.
I hope this helps

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 helpful information
You're welcome, Jan.
