Newbie and feeling a bit overwhelmed?
I just want to share a tiny bit of information that might help all newbies.
Even if you follow the training and stick to it, there are soo many things to remember. When you are well on your way with creating your website and get to the part with affiliate links etc it can start getting hard to keep everything under control.
Create a folder for all your memberships, passwords, links and important info.
Then you won't have to apply for new passwords etc. I thought I'd remember everything but nope, had to create a new password just yesterday. :) From now everything goes into a folder and is easily accessed when needed. It sounds silly but can make a difference. Some sites only allow you to change password every 7 days for instance.
Hope to be of some assistance here. :) Camilla

Thanks everyone! When you are new it is a bit intimidating to blog away over such small things, but I wanted to help others from repeating my mistakes. Nice to hear it was appreciated and more good advice came along! Great!
I will check lastpass.com
Good advice. I've been adding passwords to my lessons, which I've been saving in my documents. Even so, I lost one password (to Street Articles) that I had Kyle retrieve for me.
You are right, I found I started to struggle big time when I got to adding links and banners. Just got through it, and very happy that I finally got. For a while there, I honestly didn't think I'd ever get to understand that.
Great blog
Lastpass is a password saving program that is free. You can also store safe notes and your profile so you do not have to type in all that repetitive information. Lastpass.com also logs you into the page you have stored. Give it a try! Lastpass.com
Hey there, that is good information and have meant to do that since I started so that is on my todo list for today. Here is another way to keep track. Anytime you join anything that requires a name and password, make a folder in your email for ex. your bank name, Norton, NameCheap, Publishers Clearing House LOL! and store it there.
I do this already because I also have a hard time remembering everything. Thanks for the info and good luck.
Howdy Camilla, It not at all silly there is so much to remember, I HAVE to wright it down. The person that can keep it all straight without writing it down must be a genius. I have to even wright down the things I've done. Did I do Bing webmaster yet? Did I do Goggle authorship? There is so much to remember. So many ducks to get in a row !
Great Information Camilla. I do the same thing. I have a binder where all my passwords, ideas and notes, and to do list go. So it is all in one spot and easy to find

I started out always keeping a written folder as well as an online one! it truly helps to print out each statements under the classroom videos also! i refresh my memory with ti and also can see which lesson has that particular information in it, saves time trying to find it. : )
