WA - 1 Month In, Lots More To Go...

Hello Everyone, so it's been 1 month since I joined WA and, boy, have I learned a lot! I know I have only scratched the surface tho.
I started this journey last year. I had heard of affiliate marketing, looked at many websites (some of those being WA members-now I know) but thought "it can't be real", "how can I do that, I am not a techie". I dropped the notion that I could make money, work from home AND set my own hours, what a dream. So I took a FT regular job that sounded great but became a nightmare.
The goal was (and still is) to earn extra money for our monthly savings so my husband can retire in about 4 years AND we can move from the cold, snowy, gray and never-ending winters of Chicago to the warmer, sunnier and even when it does snow it melts within a couple of days state of Arizona. But now I am even more determined to make my website be the best it can be and make my goals a reality.
Kyle's training videos are fantastic. Getting step by step details on how to complete a task is ideal for someone like me who knows how to use the internet and the computer but couldn't put it together to achieve a website without the knowledge of the WA community.

Jay's video classes are great learning tools, sometimes over my head but I get a new concept with every one I have watched. Haven't been able to catch it live yet, tho.
The help I get from the members is is also a highlight. Honestly, I use the search bar to try to find the information I need but what I am looking for doesn't always float down from "search heaven" to the drop down screen. I have had many people respond to my requests with a link to a video or page from another member that I could not find, saving me lots of frustration.
Tomorrow, my 1 month first premium membership is up but no worries I am getting the year's subscription, so you may all get tired of hearing from me :). If anyone would like to view my site it is catpeeinfo.com. My goal is to make this an authoritative site on cat behaviors, eventually discussing the benefits cat trees, shelving, feeders, waterers, etc.
One last thing, I have never been a fan of social networking - I know, I must get over that - I use FB to lurk about and enter sweepstakes. But with Kyle's video, a training video from Nathaniell (Trialynn graciously sent me the link) and an old training video from Jay I am now a Google +er. So if you like to look me up, please do so.
Thank you to all,
Marisa
