3 weeks in, and it feels great!
Hello friends of WA,
I sure do love it here! It's been 3 weeks since first I joined and 2 weeks into my first month as a premium member. I posted a blog at my 11 day mark saying it felt like I'd been here for a long time, because of the friendly atmosphere and how comfortable I feel being here. I still feel that way!
I am also really enjoying what I'm doing. I learn something new every day to make my website better. In the past couple weeks I've learned how to monetize my site and reach out through social media. I created a facebook business page and have already inspired some of my curly-haired friends (my niche is curly hair) to keep up with my website and buy the products I promote. I'm learning how amazing pinterest is and have already pinned all my posts and created a pin with my story and affiliate link. I have yet to make a sale, but I have no problem with that, knowing that I am constantly planting seeds and taking baby steps so that one day my website can take off and fly!
Feel free to check out my site and let me know what you think. http://lovemycurlyhair.com Anything I could improve on? Strengths I have that I should utilize more?
My only discouraging thought is the random fear I have that I'll run out of keyword ideas and not know what to blog about. Have any of you ever reached lulls in keyword ideas/searches? What did you do?
I am also waiting for my website and blog posts to appear in google searches...I can't find them anywhere, on any pages. I hope they move up soon. I post a new blog almost daily with a low-hanging fruit keyword, and follow everything Kyle suggests in the trainings I'm going through (currently nearing the end of Course 4). Hopefully I'm not missing something obvious. How long did it take for your pages to show up on google's first few pages?
In the next few months, I'm going to keep working at it, going through the trainings, and searching for ways that I can learn more and make my website better! I hope to gain more followers and a consistent amount of traffic daily. And I'm going to start earning money soon, I can just feel it! =)

Nice work you have done with the site. One thing that helped me recently if you haven't done this yet is adding your site to the Google Webmaster Site and then submitting a site map to them. This helps Google understand and read your website more efficiently. It helps get your pages and posts indexed better. Note that you should also do this with Bing's webmaster tool site. Below is Kyle's video about this. You can take his advice in case mine wasn't spot on :)

Thanks so much for the info, I hadn't heard of this yet. I will definitely try it out. =)
