A Wonderful and Exciting Update to all of you WA Friends!
Today, as stated in my responses to Jeff and Geoffrey this week, I did a search incognito for my website on Google. Well, Just did a few minutes ago. This time is even much better searched my site incognito. WELLA! again, my website is on the first page of Google and Bing! On Google, my website and 19 blog posts showed up on page 1 and page 2, it continued on to page 3. In total there are about 21 sites containing my website that was picked up by Google. Like before, it picked my Instagram post, Pinterest containing my website, and also another website that has my website, a surprise to me. That was super amazing! To me unbelievably amazing!
Then, next was Bing. My website is still #1 on page 1 but only 2 of my blog posts appeared after my site. So that tells me I should regularly update Bing and Yahoo from now on. I have to make sure I make the time. I am a super busy person and I neglected to update Bing and Yahoo with my blog posts. That was because I was feeling dejected for thinking I had no activities on my website when in fact I did. I did not know how to fully utilize Google which I attributed to missing a lot of Magistudios' live classes. To be honest, I was dragging myself to continue but due to the nudging and inspirational stories of successes from everyone's blog posts on the platform. A lot of you inspired me. So I pushed myself to continue. Thank you to you all who did! What you have been doing is working!
I have seen my website as #1 on page 1 of Google before during my first year and also last year, a couple of times, but I did not think so much about it or made a big deal, but I guess it is a big deal as you are doing something right.
So now I have every reason to continue and push harder! So PLEASE, I wanted to urge those who are already making sales and feeling the sense of accomplishment, to continue posting and share your success! Help the rest of us start making real sales. Your stories were inspirational to me and I am sure a lot of others!
May the Almighty above bless us all. Stay POSITIVE! Keep safe and stay healthy!
Thank you all!

Thank you so much, Elizabeth, it made me feel good to see my wok is paying off, I had been thinking the opposite!

Thank you so much for your kind words, Elizabeth. Now, after reading Candy’s input above, my excitement is cut short. I will explore what she suggested. I am very thankful though, to see on Google Search Console that I have been getting traffic to my website but nothing to be proud of yet as they are not in hundreds. I hope to share that later on.
Again, thank you for stopping by. Take care, be safe, and stay well!

Oh, hello Evelyn,
That is so fine and no worries.
Soon traffic is out of control
and you will not even care
about them.
We are all blessed with that.
You are most welcome and
have a blessed evening.

Hi Sophie,
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, however, you are doing it wrong. The only time a search of this nature returns so many articles at the same time is when you use the site URL.
Yes, you should do it in Incognito but not this way.
Think about it as an internet user you typically search for a term instead of a URL. The only time you search for the URL is if you already know about this particular website.
When we talk about Google ranking we are talking about appearing when a group of words is typed into the search box.
If you wish to know what terms your site is ranking for and its position in searches may I suggest that you use the Google Keyword Tool?
https://ads.google.com/home/tools/keyword-planner/
Click ,"Keyword Planner" -> Click "Discover New Keywords" -> Click, "Start With A Website"
Look for the words, "Enter a domain or a page to find keywords".
Type your website URL.
Next, ensure you do this by pages
There you will be able to actually type the URL and receive the keywords your page is ranking for. These are the keywords you need to type in Incognito.
I hope this helps.

Thank you Candy for your input. It is always good to get a different perspective on the true ranking of my website. I will explore what you suggested and share my update later. Unfortunately, I happen to be very busy again and taking care of urgent matters. I do appreciate your sharing an alternative to church the true ranking of my website on Google. Very helpful!
Cheers,
Evelyn
You are welcome, Evelyn. I wrote an article today explaining how to use the Keyword research tool with Jaxxy or Incognito to check ranking.
Good luck on this path.
