200 again
I'll return for the occasional spot broadcast After all the analysis and dancing around I've defined the lasting parameters of WA.
It's time to seal my determination by taking the last plunge in view. My days will be filled going to writing conferences and learning new aspects of relating. This will require all forms of media presentation Starting with e-books.
Already collecting information and building a library. Wrestling with format and presentation issues. See ya later!. Michael

My site is up on google. Yay. But has hardly anything on it. I don’t want anyone to access it yet and never come back because they think it’s closed or something. I’m thinking removing my keywords is the answer until I’m ready to rock and roll.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks
Hi - your profile shows that your site hasn't been found by Google yet - you would have a "G" in your profile badges. This is called indexing and can take from a couple of days to a couple of weeks. You receive an email when it happens.
However, even when found by Google, you are unlikely to be ranked high enough to be seen by visitors. This is because Google views all new sites with suspicion for the first few months.
Looks like I saw something different instead of a search result. You mentioned "profile badges". I'm clueless. Would you elaborate?
Thank you
On your profile page, under your bio, it says My Accomplishments.
Each time you achieve something memorable you get a circular badge. For example, yours shows four badges. The year you joined, then the fact you have set up an account, then the star means you are a premium member, and finally, you have built a website.
When your website is found by Google, you will get a "G" badge. Take a look at my profile to see which other badges can be earned as you progress.
You can tick a box in your wordpress back office to stop search engines from indexing your site.

You should actually not worry about removing keywords or anything at all and just focus on building content. Because chances are, there aren't anyone looking at it yet despite it being indexed. As indexed simply means Google has found your site, it doesn't mean that you'll necessarily be on the first page or the second, or even the third or fourth.
Just run with the imperfections and perfect it as you go!
Well done Mike, am still clinging on in the top 200. Good luck with your venture. Still continue to play by writing the odd E Book, will publish one day!!

Next Week on Sunday, will be my 72nd Sunday Post, Add 21 for my weekly one, plus a few bits, the board shows 104, so not to bad I suppose.
Mike, I understand the yo-yo. I also understand the need to do what is best for you and that seems to be what you're doing. Glad you're not considering leaving WA as you are too valuable an asset here. Your work here is appreciated, although sometimes we tend to forget to say so.
Do what's best for you and everything else will pan out.
Thanks
Joe
