Jen, we have all been there. Many of us have family and other commitments, like fulltime jobs. Please don't be so hard on yourself. Remember this is not a race, this is about you learning a new set of skills that will serve you for the rest of your life...and help you build a business that can serve your family for the rest of your life.

Anytime you need help with your site or a lesson doesn't make sense, reach out to us here at the Community and we will help. You have a team now that can help you. Not too many startup businesses have that luxury.

WA rankings come and go. Businesses are forever!

Hang in there, you will get through this and make it to the other side. And remember...Breathe. :)

I thing many of us did. Don’t worry about WA ranking ... that just says how much your are interacting with everyone. Keep working on lesson til you get it. There is no time frame. You will get it.

Jen we have all been overwhelmed at some stage of the process. My advice would be
1. Take a day away from it altogether
2. Take each lesson slowly and surely and if you don’t understand something just ask the community.
3. Use your first site as a trial and error template and don’t worry about niche sire reviews
4. When writing just let it flow and when finished just go back and edit even after a nights sleep. 600 good words is worth more than 1000 of waffle.
5. As you work through training think of the 2 or 3 things you are most passionate about outside family and work toward narrowing this down to one l
6. By the time you have done this your training will be falling into place, Larry the two together and you are on your way

Every best wish
Trevor

In my opinion Ranking at WA is not the most important thing but getting your business started is, so less focus on ranking and more focus on your website, you have made a start and that is good continue doing this. wishing you all the best.

Don't worry, I can promise you it will be fine. At the beginning, there is so many information, we don't know where to go, and I totally understand what you feel.

Let me tell you something. Remember when you were at school, you learned many many things during many years, but maybe you didn't feel as much overwhelmed than right now because it was all structured for you, you didn't have to deal with the "where to start" or "what should I do now".

Here at Wealthy Affiliate, you're left alone (not totally), in the sense that YOU decide what YOU do and when you do it. It is a lot more difficult to deal with all the new things because there are so many of them!

So, let me give you a quick tip. Continue the training like you were doing, that's perfect. It will bring you the basics and what you need to start something solid. Take one step at a time. It's okay if your website is not "public ready", it's part of the process. You are at the best place to ask for feedback even if it's not ready in your sense.

Me too at the beginning I didn't know how others could do it. I felt I was losing my time but no, I was learning the first steps, I was jumping in. I checked other members' websites, I took notes, I asked questions, etc.

It's your first month, give you a chance. ;)

You got this my friend!
