Lost and frustrated - My first wobble

LacedUp

Published on November 22, 2017

Published on Wealthy Affiliate — a platform for building real online businesses with modern training and AI.

So, I don't even know why I'm writing this or what i will achieve in doing so but hay ho. But I'm feeling stuck and when I feel stuck I write. Usually lists. This is a list. Of sorts, anyway.

It all happened when I stumbled across Yoast. The feedback it gives is really useful but it's stumped me too.

The evenings have been spent stressing over SEO Titles and how to create a 'good' one. I'm just not getting it. And what on earth is a slug?!

Ranking in Google isn't happening for my posts either, I don't think (or does the G on published posts in site content never light up?)

Oh and Google page insights... Oh my goodness. Mind blown. All I see is problems with fixes that may as well be written in another language. Oh wait, they are! Java script.

Do I continue writing posts and get on with the training or do I worry about all this other stuff first? Feeling overwhelmed.

I've so many questions I don't even know where to begin. I guess my confidence has been knocked. Any friendly guidance or encouragement is welcomed.
