What I am doing so far.

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

I created a new blog post today and submitted my car care site to Autozone. I do run ads for WA and another affiliate program I am associated with. Hope Autozone likes my site and I can become an affiliate with them. I have been going through the affiliate bootcamp because a while back another WA member recommended it even if your site is not devoted to WA.

Lately I have been down a lot. It just seems to me that with the other affiliate program that I work with I only get minimal traffic. I am trying to get traffic from a free standpoint on socail media. I did buy some more training but it focuses too much on paid ads on facebook so far. Hope it gets better and is worth the money. At this point I am not so sure. I also have an app that is intergrated into my FB business page and I need to delve into the training there because it can also help me promote WA.

I did recently get two compliments on my site and I think it was not all that good. I also will be starting a tech support job soon. If I get established in the job I will go a full year at WA here. I also need to get into the traffic training as well. I worry all the time that I am on the wrong path with affiliate marketing and have the worst time finding the right one. I worry that if I get established in my job it will take away from my marketing efforts even though I plan to put more money towards it. Some people seem to be able to turn on positivity like a switch and have it stay on all the time. I want to be like that but I am not.

I know that whatever offer or system you are promoting that blogging can be very powerful. I hope I can unlock that power and of social media and replace my upcoming job in less that a year. Time will tell.
