The Journey Continues...

Guess what's new?

I'm a premium member of WealthyAffiliate!

Honestly I wasn't planning on becoming premium until after the 30 day challenge, but those sneaky, sneaky founders removed commenting abilities for free members.

So here I am.

I figured it'd be a good time to share expenses thus far:

RUNNING EXPENSES

  • Hosting: $0 (using an old pre-paid yearly plan)
  • Theme: $0 (using theme I already own)
  • Domain Name: $10.87
  • 3x500 word articles: $22.50
  • Market Research Software: $67
  • Wealthy Affiliate: $19
  • TOTAL: $119.37

Of all these expenses the only one I'm annoyed with is the article outsourcing. I wrote about that in Day 4:

So yeah, chugging along.

Wrapping Up The First Site

I'm a bit disappointed at how long site #1 took. That said, I'm going to do an initial marketing push for it and move onto site #2 niche selection.

The good news is that I can just copy my templates from this first site which will speed up the second.

I think being familiar with my "process" will help as well.

Hi Skyler, did you have a schedule laid out with target dates?

Now you are a Premium individual you may find some helpful information to improve your progress.

Which market research software are you using?

Looking forward to next installment.

Thanks Keith... no to the schedule, just a rough idea. Using Traffic Travis... buddy of mine had a coupon code to bring down the price. There is a free version too.

Can I ask you which market research software you are using?
What do you think about it? Is it worth the money?
