My Business is About Ready To Explode!
I thought I would share my progress so far. I have been online for six months now and things are starting to fall into place. I had a period of doubt and ups and downs but I think all my hard work is starting to pay off.
I have written 60 articles and have three websites. While some think that is not a good idea, it has given me a variety of topics. Each one of them is different and I really enjoy them. All but nine of my articles are indexed and I think the rest will be soon. I spent a lot of time trying to figure out why they weren't and with the help of the community and site support I was able to learn some new strategies to speed along the process.
I did not pay much attention to ranking until this weekend. I systematically went through each article and put them in Jaaxy. Now this is fun! I had four articles set at # 1. That was so exciting! Tonight I have a new one at #1 and it is on my Treasure Valley Affiliates website. Several of my other articles are ranked above #10. I feel like things are about ready to "bust loose".
My traffic is growing. I have 210 clicks in 28 days on one of them. The other two are growing consistently. I am still wondering what the hot pink line means in the WA stats.
The downside is that I still have not had any sales? But I am just going to keep writing articles and work more in social media and it will happen . The main thing I need to work on is consistency. I am going to start publishing on Wednesdays and Saturdays. I have 20 Drafts started so plan to use the new scheduler. There is so much to learn!
Thanks to all of the community that has helped me along the way. I couldn't have gotten this far alone. This has been a wonderful addition to my life.
As Always,
Kay Tillotson

That is wonderful! Maintaining three sites all whilst feeling the ‘doubts’ and ‘ups and downs’ goes to show how determined you are, and now it's steadily paying off.
Sales will start to come through with traffic increasing and with time!
Well done 😊

Hi Kay,
You're doing better than me. I have 30 articles. I just spent a lot of time on providing quality and internal linking. Have you been doing that? Link Whisper (free) is an excellent plug-in for that, so I would have a one-pillar post create 29 topic clusters and internally link them all as long as they are relevant. Congratulations on hitting those milestones. Now I am done. Next, I will create a new pillar post (it's like a comprehensive guide) and then create topic clusters surrounding that. For sure, the Hubs help to structure that along with AI Authors. You said the same thing in my post: consistency is the key, and I agree with you 100%. Quality over quantity, for sure.
Thanks Brenda!
I just finished Jay ‘s training on internal links. I’m ready to roll now! I’m going to spend some time creating some in the next few days. As far as consistency goes I’m going to start publishing on Wednesday and Saturday. That will help. Thanks again

Yeah, I saw someone mention that on LiveChat. Internal linking is really important.
