One Step at a Time. Has a Month Gone by Already?
Off I Go!
About a month ago I decided to push myself and see what I could possible do and create on-line. It's been an interesting journey for a number of reasons. I have always viewed this type of activity as a solitary pursuit.
After signing up Wealthy Affiliate, I found that it really doesn't have to be that way. There are a huge number of like-minded people out there who offer help, who have similar interests and also could use my help. I may be a complete novice on the blog scene, but not in life. We become ingrained in a certain thought process and now here's a community that has a significant diversity of points of view. I now can create something and get feedback that I may have not had available to me in my own circle of friends.
Raising the Bar on Writing
One of my first thoughts on starting this endeavour concerned my writing capabilities. I generally don't do much writing. But then a thought crossed my mind. Within the Wealthy Affiliate community, most people want comments on their blogs, websites, layouts and subject matter. Setting up a process of commenting on other's efforts gives you several things.
There's an awful lot of interesting people and subjects out there. Reviewing and commenting rapidly improves your insight into a lot of subject matter and your writing skills start to gently rise in capability. I've already bookmarked a number of web pages that I was commenting on. There's some very insightful material out there!
Time to pick up the pace!
I have created websites before enrolling in Wealthy Affiliate. While viewing the Google health of my current website that I've created in Wealthy Affiliate, I have been able to optimize the loading times by following the suggested settings. Speeds are looking good. I decided to compare my old website launch times.
Night and Day! Through these sessions, I've got my Google PageSpeed Insights in the 97% range. My previous websites came in around 20%! So I think I'm going in the right direction!
The Future is Waiting!
I'm really curious what my thoughts on this process will be in another month. With the steep learning curve now starting to level off an iota, I'm wondering what the future will bring. With me being on the cusp of completing my Level 2 training, I think the future levels will now give me new insight that I may not have expected when I first signed up with Wealthy Affiliate. I feel I now am just starting to become aware of the future possibilities.
Now on with month two!
