First traffic!

Published on Wealthy Affiliate — a platform for building real online businesses with modern training and AI.

It's been almost 2 months since I signed up, along with a couple scrapped ideas. About a month ago I settled on which to begin focusing on.

Through school, my time on here has been somewhat limited, but I am happy to say I have put in on average half an hour each day and my grades have not suffered! So in 2018 I hope to up that to 45 minutes to an hour each day.

Now with that I have a website with 5 pages and 6 posts. Got images going, come affiliate programs, and have a couple linked products. I have yet to delve into the world of social media advertising, and have done no paid promotion. All I have done is SEO. And it has worked! Just recently I got my first traffic! It totaled to 2 pageviews and 8 minutes on my website, but this is an infinite increase from last month.

Compared to me three months ago, a year ago, I am so much closer to success.

It makes me so much more motivated to know where I am now compared to where I was. ! I'm excited to continue this journey!
