It's the 10th day of the month which means it's time to check my progress here at WA once again. Still chug-chug-chugging along and waiting for my big traffic boom to happen in the next few months. Because it will happen. I can feel it.

This last month I was a writing machine! I wrote all of my posts for February so that they're ready to go. In one month I've written 59,593 words for a total of 104,185 words in my three months here. That's more words this month than in my first two months combined! :O

I still have not moved forward in the trainings since putting them on hold after the first month. I'm continuing to wait until the traffic is at a point where joining an affiliate program is worth it. Though I have been watching/reading trainings on using Pinterest. Organic traffic has grown ever so slightly with my first site. I had 9 organic searches in the last month, which is up from 4 last month. My second site still has zero but it is still a siterubix site, so that's to be expected.

I've stayed on track with my 17 posts a month for each site, meaning 34 posts a month.

I changed my system so I've been able to free up more time to work on "back office" stuff. Today I started a Pinterest account for my first website and have started creating pins on Canva. Here are a few!

Last month I struggled with patience. This month I haven't felt as impatient. I think being able to work on more "behind the scenes" stuff has helped. I'm excited about getting into Pinterest although a little overwhelmed by the amount of interaction I'm going to need to start working on. I think if I can invest even 10 minutes a day into following and pinning other people's stuff, I'll be okay.

I also aim to start an Instagram account for my first site this month. Which means I'll be back in Canva to make some Instagram posts. :P

I hope to have a full week dedicated to my novella this month, as well as a week and a bit to write all of my posts for March.

I've had more questions with some issues that have cropped up this month, and the community has been absolutely awesome with helping me. Extra props to TheCatherine who's always hanging out in the live chat, ready to help.

Thanks so much! I hope to have some fun updates next month!
