Sharing what I do—daily, weekly, monthly

When I first started writing websites close to 20 years ago (no way!), I didn't have the idea of helping people, I just wanted a way to promote the newspaper that I worked at. Back then I did a lot of code writing. It was not easy and I didn't do it very well.

Fortunately, What You See Is What You Get (WYSIWYG) was born and I didn't have to write code unless I really, really wanted to. Now there are so many WYSIWYG programs out there that many people don't even know what I'm talking about!

I didn't write keyword rich posts (I still don't for the newspaper. We write what we write for the physical print edition and post those articles).

Now that I am focusing more on helping people through my website(s), I am beginning to really latch onto the need for keywords so people can find what they are looking for! I'm not an expert by any means, but I am working on learning how to effectively use keywords.

Another thing I started doing was following a list of things that I do (or try my absolute hardest to do) each day, week and month here at Wealthy Affiliate. I am sharing this list because I am hoping maybe it will help you to focus yourself for the time you can spend here at WA. It is a mixture of things for my actual website along with things I do on WA to connect with the community.

There are other things I do, as well, but this list keeps me focusing on the things I know I want to accomplish each day, week or month.

Here's the list if anyone would like to check it out.

Daily

—Write a 1000 word post at least 3x a week (my original plan was to try to write 1000 words per day, but I am a realist and as long as I am still working my 9-5 I can only do so much in the evening)
—Ask for comments on EVERY new post
—Share all new posts on Facebook and Google+
—Give 3 comments (minimum) on other sites
—Follow at least 5 new people daily on WA
—Follow 2 people per day on Google+
—Approve new site comments
—Write WA Blog
—Do Training (sometimes a training session will take me a few days to complete)

Weekly

—Give at least 2 feedback
—Ask for feedback on my site
—Follow suggestions that are appropriate
—Do new keyword searches

Monthly

—Add appropriate affiliate marketing
—Make a training video or powerpoint (I haven't made a training yet, but I have a few topics in mind)

This is just what I am trying to do. I love checklists and checking things off the list, so I print 7 of these each week and check off the daily things as I do them and the weekly. I haven't done any in monthly yet as I have only been with WA for about a month, but I am looking forward to when I can start checking those off monthly.

I hope these suggestions help anyone who is new and maybe needs a way to focus.

I'm also open to suggestions if you have something that would be appropriate to add to my list. Feel free to post them in the comments!
