How do I get back on track?
Hi all you wonderful peeps on WA, and May the fourth be with you all!
Today is Star Wars day, but that is not why I write this post.
I have been away from WA for about three months, not that I've joined the Dark Side or anything like that, but the force hasn't been strong with me of late, and I just couldn't make ends meet, but I'm back now, and I've got my websites up and running again. Only problem is, although my sites look like they did, my site trust has dropped to zero, and I feel like I'm starting from scratch. I had reached course 5 in my Jedi training (bootcamp), and eagerly awaiting my first sale, but now... It's as if I've lost my light saber.
Well, truth be told, my motivation is at an all time low, and I really need some expert advice on how to get back on track.
So please, if you'd take a look at my website, and give me some advice, I would be forever grateful. And feel free to leave a comment as well, maybe that can help boost rankings a bit.

Maybe I need a mentor, if anyone wants to take on an "apprentice".

Ossur, Start by writing a new post. Once published, share it on social media. Currently, for my boot camp site, I use Facebook, Twitter, Google+, and even Pinterest. Paul Goodwin has had great results with Linkedin. Join groups. Repeat the process.
I assume you do Google Fetch for new material. If not it's time to learn.
Then again, you probably have been doing all this. Keep plugging away. It will all come back.

I think I am in the same boat as you. I am haveing a real hard time finding motivation and the "Want To" to do anything on my site.
I'm at the point of wanting to just pack it in.
To be honest, it's depressing to KNOW that this can really work for anyone IF they are willing to do the work. When I was posting even once a week I was ranking on the second page.
And, to add to the depression, I went on google to see where my website was and couldn't find it on any of the first 26 pages. I've been here for 1.5 years and have only managed to get to Course 3, lesson 8 when I know that I should be finished.
Do you feel stuck? I know that I do.
So, know that you are not alone in this situation for, I as well, am trying to figure out hoe to get motivated as well and I am sure there are many others as well.
As others have said, I guess we just have to start small and build, you know....perhaps just a half an hour or 45 minutes to start writing content again.
Judging by the comments, we CAN resurrect or energy and our sites. It will take time and effort but, it seems that it can be done.
Don't know if |I am qualified to do this but, I want to offer you encouragement. Heck, maybe we can encourage each other. My membership is due for renewal in November. That gives me 5+ months to see If this really can work.
Maybe this will help,
I woke up to $3864.72 this morning! Have a look and let me know what you think?
How badly do we want to see our dreams come true?
As I have read on other blogs....the only thing stopping us is us.
ONWARD AND UPWARD?

Just resume building it. I neglected a site for two years but as soon as I started updating posts, adding images to pin and so forth it came up really fast.
I took a look at your site. It looks great. Be patient. The sales will come. Stay positive. We all go through slumps. You are not alone.
you are in a nice part of the Galaxy with a great site. It's a matter of using more content nd better keywords before the Empire finds you!
Welcome back, I wrote a training about productivity, perhaps it will help you 20 Productivity Tips to Stay Focused
Yeah agreed find some low hanging fruit keywords that will get you ranked. Get back into publishing each week.
Revamp you social media by utilising all available options.
Set you sights back on your prize and just get your head up and fgo for it. You know this platform works you just have to get you gears back in traction again and you will be hack before you know it.
do some keyword research and find easy terms to target
create a consistent publishing schedule - at least 1 post per week
start sharing your content on social media
keep this up and you will start gaining traction again
You need a little break in the solid black content. Maybe the titles could be another color?
You seem to have everything there that absolutely needs to be.
Write a new post, update any pages that need it and keep on keeping on!
