Never Give Up, It Will Pay Off!

Today I just want to share with you my morning thoughts again. While strolling outside with our dog, I was feeling happy that I haven't given up on my website I set up 4 years ago.

New website in 2015

Back in 2015, I was in a 3-month course teaching people how to build their own website and become an online entrepreneur. I've set up my own website with a lead magnet and connected it with a Facebook fanpage and YouTube channel.

First product, first sales

And I wrote my first online product for sale, an e-book How to learn a language in 3 months, with my own examples how I learn languages.

I was able to sell about 40 of them having it all set up very well with the lead magnet that brought me about 800 subscribers.

Break for 2 years

Then in 2017, I had other things to sort out and wasn't in a mood to continue posting, making videos etc. But my website was still living its own life.

I still kept getting requests for skype lessons and that brought me many students/clients.

Now and then someone bought my e-book and I got money.

There are about 30 articles on the website, some of them with comments. Everything organic, I have never paid for any traffic or advertising.

I didn't write any post on my website for 2 years.

But the website was still running and Google could watch :)

Good foundations

I didn't know much about SEO that time when I set up the website but I had some inbound and outbound links there, embedded video in one article, and it was all in one particular niche - language learning.

The ranking reflects the age of the website

When I look in Google Search Console now, I see my average ranking at 7. Some keywords even put me on 1st position. Isnt' that amazing? After doing nothing for 2 years!

My point is: I had to renew the webhosing and pay for domain name every year. I could have stopped that as I was not interested in blogging for the entire 2018 and most of 2019.

But if I did that, I would have to start from scratch now.

Just never give up!

So I'm encouraging you to never give up and keep going! Even if you need a break, consider it just a break. Mine was two years long. But I'm back on track :)

Everything we are taught here is true and, all you have to do is follow the steps and WAIT for the results. When you look back at your website in six months or in one year, you will be amazed, im sure of that!

Wish you all a wonderful weekend!
