Motivation When It's Needed

Hello Friends, I just wanted to hop on and leave a little post. I have been struggling these last four weeks making time and having access to do what I needed to do. I have been from the US to Spain, transit across the Atlantic via ship, and now waiting for the next few days to pass by for some days off. Its been 29 days since I left home, will be 33 before I return. It has been an experience that I'll never forget. I have a new home away from home. I have met amazing people from all over the w

Thankful for Wealthy Affiliate!

Well, I couldn't pass up the offer! I have now upgraded to Premium Plus! While I may not have used 100% of the features with my Premium package, the features that you get with the Plus package is hard pass on. Add the discount, and it really was a no brainer for me.

Persistence is Key - Keep Moving!

After a month or so of struggling with Google indexing, one can get frustrated. I logged into Google Search Console last night to find that I had accumulated 16 items showing "Discovered - Not Indexed - Excluded". After hours of trying to figure out what I was doing wrong, I decided to call it a night. Looking at all the options that Google gives, there could only be a few possibilities. I knew they weren't plagiarized, I knew they weren't from another URL. It showed that my URL was working pro

Getting Earnings - Keep Going, Its Adds Up!

Toward the end of October, I realized that I had not one, but two entries through Google Adsense. Am I excited, you bet I am! I didn't even have to make a sale to start making money. I am 8 days shy of my 2 month anniversary since creating Winning Outdoors. Similar to my last post, I continue seeing more progress. I am getting more traffic to my site every day. The learning curve associated with websites, SEO's, HTML trackers and the like continue to come easier. Google Search Console has becom

One Month In - Forever to Go!

So, here I am again, exactly one month after my decision to join WA and go Premium. No, I am not raking in uncontrollable amounts of cash, I'm not receiving 10k views a day, and I am not able to leave my day job. Did I expect to? No.Would all the above be great? Of course, but I never expected to be there and chances are you probably shouldn't either at the 30-day mark. Although, I'm sure there are some that are making leaps and bounds. What have I accomplished? I have joined one of the best t

First Post.

Hello everyone!I wanted to get on here and formally say hello to the community. There have been some comments, private messages, etc., but nothing for the group. I am here like many others, looking for a better way. I enjoy my current occupation and don't make bad money at it. With that said, it takes a lot of time away from my family. I work a rotation, so I have quite a bit of alone time at home, now that the kids are in school. What better way to occupy my alone time, than to (hopefully) mak
