My 90 Day Review My Accomplishments.
Thank You Wealthy Affiliate. All Of You, each and every one of you. Thank is what comes to mind when I think the words Wealthy Affiliate. What a community we Have Made. I have been using the internet to make some kind of money ever since 2007. In 2008 I started reading about Affiliate marketing. I could not find the right help any where. My head was spinning, and waiting for email reply's does not work well for me. Technology has come a long way. It is no longer hard to make a web site. It is Still Hard to make a living with said web Site without the proper training. I am a risk taker. In my determination to retire at home- I WAS READY, I ran across WA. I had been Mislead 2 times in 2017, but blew that off. I am a positive person and in both of those incidents I walked away with skill and knowledge. I guess it was just a trade of energy. I joined WA with the agreement to self that I would do all the free lessons and decide in 7 days. I think I joined on my 5th Free Day. It Already felt like home, like I knew I Finally "Found The Place" WARNING CURVE AHEAD!
It is so Hard to Stop Old Habits. I had such a mess with Key word stuffing, I could see it, yet I kept doing it. Basically I was trying to write like it was an ebay or etsy listing. I had to let go and re learn EVERYTHING! I noticed I had slowed down in interest, It was this curve I couldn't get around. It was about the time when Wealthy Affiliate started talking about Black Friday. After some thought and More than one BAD DAY AT WORK I decided to Commit to the Offer. I Know me well and if I invested in it I will use it. It Worked, This was an exciting week for me. On Feb 1 (90) DAYS. I earned my first Commission. I also Was finally indexed in google. After some investigation I discovered that I have 3 post indexed. I accomplished more than I thought in 90 days. I have a Beautiful site, Not a lot of post, but they are done properly with links and such. 3 out of 6 of my post are indexed. I have 2 Premium members and have already earned for February. I learned a LOT!. I am no longer hung up on the key word thing..... Let It Go...... Again Thank you every one in this Great Community.

Great accomplishments Joanne. Let me give you a tip of constructive criticism. Break your messages up to chunked paragraphs separated by white space. Your reader will pickup at least twice the message for the same content!
I thought I did. I guess I better write up here more and figure it out. If you knew how long it took me to figure out the Editor. You would shake your head. It will get easier. Practice makes perfect
I keep trying to fix it and getting no where. Will you please explain what I am doing wrong? Thank You in advance.
Excellent, great positive attitude always wins through, well done on your successes Joanne!!
Wishing you continued success on your WA journey.
Best wishes, Nigel

Your story is wonderful. So happy that it's working out so beautifully for you.
Do you have an Etsy store? It sounds like it from your post.
Thank you so much. Sorry it is so scrabbled. I still have trouble with the editors in WA. I Had an ebay shop a few years ago. When I was using ebay "Drop Shipper" were Not Their Favorite. Every time I turned around they were giving me a hard time about something> Once they even took away my power seller status because I was shipping with the Post office instead of through PayPal.Give Me A Break! That is what drop shipper do, they let the supplier do the shipping.There a few other things that were not right. You know they would actually encourage people to file a claim. I had a person file a claim once because they .purchase Pre owned shorts that were Not their size. Really over $4. After that incident I knew I was Out of there! Have a great day Jeannine
Yeah, I can imagine Ebay was a tough partner.
I asked if you were an Etsy seller, not Ebay.
lo Oh. I built a shop on etsy. I crochet hand made rugs. I only sold one on etsy, most I sold Local. They were usually an animal. Frogs I sold the most. I love the craft, but decided I like it better for my personal outlet than an income stream. When I found WA I emptied the shop.
Ah, okay. I asked because Etsy has an affiliate program now, so you could promote your Etsy shop and also earn a commission on any sales made via your link from other stores.
That is awesome! Maybe when I do my next site. I want to make more after I learn and know what I am doing better.
