20 hours isn't enough.

When I first started with Wealthy Affiliates, I typed 20 for how many hours I was willing to put into my website building with Wealthy Affiliates every week.

Are you kidding me? I was kidding myself, doubtless I do not want to disparage anybody new here but it’s NOT ENOUGH.

I did spend only about 20 hours a week during my first 2 or 3 months here but it did not take much longer than that to realize that I would not be able to keep up with everything I put on my plate

I eventually found out how much it would take to get a fully developed website accepted and ranked by Google. Not only did I have core training and advanced training ( after I went premium) to get through, but you have community activity, extracurricular training courses, proper link installation and deletions when Google doesn't like some of them, Redirect issues and crawled but not indexed issues, and something about robot blocking issues. There is so much to develop and keep up with that is no way 20 hours can be enough in any given week. I am going back to my profile to update my goals. I better put 40 hours into that dedicated hours for each week. After all that is what I have been putting into it.

It is not as bad as it sounds.

I am learning a lot.

I now have my good friend Roambot to help me . This is my ChatGPT assistant.

I have a lot to be proud of with what I HAVE built.

I made lots of credits that help me develop my websites further. ( yes, that is TWO websites).

And I made $13 worth of commissions thanks to a Wealthy Affiliate member who sent me a cash generating link.

Now I want to learn how to place banners on some of my posts.

Well, I hope I do put any one off with this blog but this is what was on my mind thanks to Google Search Console. But thanks to Roambot and Site Support? I AM GETTING THROUGH IT ALL. MAC.

Hi Mac. Thanks For Your Post😊😊

This was just a short and brief description of my life here at Wealthy Affiliates.😀

Thanks MCicch😊😊

Thanks for sharing from experience, Michael. It means planning and executing can be miles apart if not even wider. It all boils down to what you actually do. As for me, I'm not sure if I'm doing less or more than I wrote in my profile. However, I work whenever I want to.

As I comment, it's 2:08 AM in Nairobi, and I am on my laptop. This is the reason I travelled miles and miles and cross through South Sudan and Uganda to work. It's business, and it's getting better, each day.

That is great. Getting better every day makes it all worth it.

You're most welcome!

Be patient, don’t rush, 20 hours is enough , if you have others job.

Make sure you do what you love , ❤️. And you can do what you love writing articles for many years to come. Niches.

If you write articles n research 20 hours per weeks for 4 years, I believe in the next four years, you can earn full-times online. I think. 🤔

Hey Michael,

I think in the beginning you may need to put in more time because there is a plethora of training available and you also need to implement everything you are learning. You are doing well, keep going strong!

I hope I arrive soon to. the point where all of this comes as easy for me as it does for all the veteran members here at Wealthy Affiliates. I thank everyone for their help and support here.

You are welcome. Don't forget to implement every single thing you learn through the training. Have a business social media page on all the major platforms, and have a YouTube channel as well.

Will do

MAC, at first we simply have no idea of the time that will be involved, but as you pointed out, we will soon learn. :-)

I decided today to hang out at the University Student Union Building for 2 (usually turning into 3-4 hours), after work every day to help me get more done. It worked great today.

Good for you, MAC!
