I gotta share, I gotta sharee!

Wow, wow. This is gonna be short, but wow, I gotta share. I gotta share this news.

I am excited. This is probably the most excited I have been since I became a WA member and saw my first website online.

I know, I know, to some of you there'll be that shake of the head and the smirk and the rye comment "so what is he so excited about?"

And I understand. You've been there, done that. But this is my first and I am relishing it, so.....

Sharing

I am into my third year at WA and speaking truthfully, most of it has been mundane and trying and at times - discouraging.

This is due to a number of factors including my personality. I recognize through working here that there is an aspect of who I am that needs some alteration in order for me to succeed as an entrepreneur.

I'm working on that.

I also realized that the niche I chose, even though I am passionate about it, was not the one I should be blogging about. Not if I wanted to write freely and connect with my target audience.

So in June I started my third niche site. In doing so, I decided to go over the OEC and I must admit that I am learning a lot more as I redo the training.

Also, I am writing more freely and I believe, connecting more easily with my visitors.

And this is showing.

Share in my excitement

It is showing because yesterday I got an email telling me that one of my post had been indexed in Google. I didn't pay much attention to it, it was not the first one.

But then a while ago, I decided to check my ranking using Jaaxy. I wasn't expecting anything, but I still checked.

Booooooommmmmmm!!!!!

Ranked on the first page as number 1 in both Bing and Yahoo. I had to check for myself to make sure that Jaaxy had not gotten it wrong.

They hadn't. Number 1 family, number 1. Wowwww.

I did not get a ranking from Google but I know that it's somewhere on one of their pages. I have to work on getting traffic to get it to page 1 now.

For me, this is more motivation.

I'm pressing on. Rejoice with me. If you are struggling, do not give up. Small success will lead to bigger ones and finally to your goal.
