Progress Report: Where I'm at after 3 months

*Starting off with a disclaimer, I have been a member of WA since January 2017. However, I've only been active in the community for 3 months since I spent 4 months in school with no time available to dedicate to WA.*

So far, I am in Course 3 of the Certification training. A few minutes ago I created my FB, Twitter, Pinterest, G+, and Youtube accounts. Some of the things I've learned so far:

- How to choose a niche, create a website, and monetize it

- How on page SEO works and how to use it to bring traffic to a site

- What a good, money making website looks like

- How to write posts that bring traffic to your site

- What posts to write to catch visitors in the buying phase of their online search

... and much much more

I have actually started seeing much larger amounts of traffic than I've ever seen before! This morning I checked my Google Analytics account, very casually, and was very surprised to see about 80 new visitors coming into my website in just one day!

Keep in mind that before this I had been getting, about 4 visitors to my page on average. 80 people in one day is a very big jump. This is not even including any kind of social engagement, which we all know can add a very significant boost to your site traffic.

That being said, I want to keep on learning about how to rank higher. I have written content on what looks too be very promising low hanging fruits, but am having a lot of trouble getting them ranked higher despite writing posts longer than 1500 words.

I really want to thank everyone in the community for being so supportive and helpful along this journey. I am surprised at the amazing progress I have made so far and cannot wait to see what else the future brings.

Cheers

Juan
