How Important is Rank.

Hi everybody. So much to do. I just love it. For the past week I have retraced my steps so that I can understand what I am doing and where I am going. Being slightly backward in IT and this being my first entree into Internet Marketing I had to stop and complete substantial revision.

As a result my rank went backwards approximately 400 spots to1709. I have been in the gig for about 7 weeks. I am most probably more interested in getting my business right. I feel that rank is a good guide to MY improvement and sustainability but not critical.

Or should I distribute my time between both rank and business as this will give me a more rounded enterprise?

Thank you all for your guidance.

Stephen.

I've been here a while and my rank goes up/down all the time. There is no monetary value of rank, however, I can see where it might be beneficial to someone who is actively promoting WA. A potential enrollee might look at someone with a higher rank as being more successful and that may propel them to sign up under you.

A higher rank means that you are more interactive with the group. That interaction benefits you as well. You learn from others, you're inspired and motivated by others, or a comment triggers an idea.

Having said this, it does take time away from you building your site. So, in the end, only you can determine what's right for you.

I think your priorities are more important than your rank

No worries on rank, Stephen. You are doing great. My rank goes up and down like a yo-yo anyway.

Rank looks and feels good. But there is not much financial equivalence to it. I have been told to keep working on my websites so they start making money. That sounds good to me.

What I have noticed that helped me get ranked was interaction, lots of it with other members. This means following and getting followed by others. Answering questions by others. Again this keeps us ranked high but it does not bring a cent to our websites.

So now I am regrouping and spending more time in exploring my Wordpress platform so I can polish up my 3 websites.

Youtube has a ton on Wordpress that will supplement what we learn here at WA and from each other.

Cheers!

As Heidi said, Stephen, but to me it is extremely motivating, and I believe that motivation extends over to the business building!
