So I noticed the monthly charge for WA hit on my account a few days ago and I thought I would wax poetic about what I have accomplished in the one month I have been a Premium Member.

I now have an excellent website, which generates its own traffic and is ranked in google on the second or third pages for several keywords. Rankings continue to improve.

I have many followers on twitter, including most of the Geocaching blog 'superstars' I'm trying to emulate. My tweets have been retweeted and one even featured in a geocaching 'newspaper'.

I have asked for and received content (photos) from my readers to create a unique Geocache gallery- which is generating traffic. This has been done through Facebook.

I have signed up for a number of affiliate programs outside of Amazon and am slowly replacing all my Amazon links with the better affiliate programs.

An ad and link for my website can be found on one of the most famous Geocaching Stores. The only brick and mortar establishment in the world who sells only geocaching supplied. I have an agreement with the proprietor to submit content as a guest blogger.

I have other 'guest' bloggers lined up who are famous within the geocaching community, although I have yet to receive a guest blog. It's only been a few days though!

The WA community has helped tremendously with these efforts. I've watched half a dozen of Magistudio's seminars and have learned a LOT on each one. I was turned on to Canva.com by his images WAbinar and have used that not only for my website but for my travel agency as well.

I had questions regarding SERPS which were answered immediately and positively on the chat. I learned about Google Fetch and updating my page meta info to make it more appealing and relevant to searchers. My traffic is growing as a result.

All in all, my month has been productive and positive! Thank you WA for the great product, and pointing me in an actionable direction right off the bat.
