Looking Course 5 square in the eyes

It seems like yesterday when I first started working with Kyle and Carson and bringing my website online. It wasn't really yesterday, but it wasn't that long ago...a few weeks. I think. I've kind of lost track.

Since coming this far in the training, my site continues to grow and evolve. Using Google Analytics Realtime Overview, I saw my website's first real traffic come in. It felt like watching my daughter take her first steps years ago. This was working!

Now i'm having a hard time focusing on the training. My mind is brainstorming a dozen different concepts for my home page and scouring themes for just the right look. I've probably dabbled more with Wordpress plugins than I should at this point, but it's a whole new toybox of goodies.

Things got less than easy when I started trying to incorporate AdSense ads. Their formats just didn't jive with my theme and I don't know enough about CSS (I'm a Frontpage kind of guy)to fix it. So I made some adjustments and hoped for the best.

Great feedback continues to come in from my new friends here at WA. Shout outs to Labman, LCJohn and Rallytime for their support thus far.

Looking forward to Course 5 and beyond.
