So I am on the 20 day break in the bootcamp and am working on building a lot more post. But part of the break is to improve the content you already have. I would greatly appreci

Christina, I like your writing. It flows nicely, and kept me interested. You have done some nice work there. It is a great start. Thanks for the invite!

Thank you WJC, I appreciate it! :)

Wow, I really like your site. Your hard work shows with this. You amount of content is impressive. I agree with Beverly, the font could be a little larger. Pat yourself on the back, Kudo, job well done.

Thanks Kary! I agree I'm going to try the plugin she suggested and see what I can do!

I really like your site! I have some constructive commentary. Have someone else read your articles to proof them. There are some errors that might distract certain readers. That really cute picture that says "Start Here" acts like a link but doesn't do anything other than open the picture. I think the content of your About Me is really friendly and makes the reader want to trust you. I also really like the premise of your brand Wealthy Reality and I think you should capitalize it whenever you use it. good luck!! :-)

Thank you for the input KK! I will make sure and correct the errors! I appreciate you pointing that out!

Very informative I enjoyed reading it. Also I left up us comment

Thank you very much Tommy!

gosh your site is so good! so rich in content. i am thinking of change my niche now with such a strong competitor like you =p.

Thank you for the compliment Jay! I'm sure you will do great!

Hey Christina,
You've got a great framework with which to start earning you money. One aspect that I think you could tweak is to add more internal links (links to other posts/pages on your site). This is a great way to improve your rankings and it serves to add value to your visitors.
Best Regards,
Jim

Thank you Tech for the pointer! I will definitely work on that!

Hey :) The only things i don't like is that when you click on a picture it go to the page and then have to go back to the site. You can use the plugin wp lightbox 2 and then every picture on yout website will open on a lightbox with the possibility of closing it :)

Sorry my english not perfect :)

You did a great job goodluck

Thank you Khaos! That is great information! I will utilize that tool! Thanks for taking a look!

Hi Christina - You have obviously been putting in a huge amount of work and I think your site is looking really good - apart from one issue. I actually think your font is far too small and I actually couldn't cope with it for more than a minute or so. I tried several times - but I don't think it's comfortable. Don't rush into change it - see what others think - but I thinks it's something you need to be aware of.

Options is to change template, use Ultimate tiny MCE plugin or change your CSS style sheet (which I don't advise unless you know what you're doing) :) Beverley

Thank you Beverly for taking a look. I also agree on the font, I just have not found out how to change it so I very much appreciate the input!!!

I personally hear all the time of people having a particular area they struggle in when deciding to try the online world for generating money. My curiosity is what did you strug

Thanks for all the input everyone. I have struggled with several of these. Time management, traffic, niche ideas, and info overload. But I can honestly say WA made all of these so much easier for me to tackle. :) Slow and steady is excellent advise!

Mine has been just finding the time to do everything. Or to find CHUNKS of time. It sucks only getting 15 minutes here, 30 minutes there - makes it really hard to get a flow going. But that's the problem when you have a full time job and two kids at home. Basically - just the time needed to make this a success,

The number one struggle i had was driving traffic to my site! i overused keywords. Thanks to WA i understood how to drive this traffic and more importantly targeted traffic or audience! Just take it slow and focus on understanding the lessons and not just doing it! I'm sure you will do great!

I tried to move forward in courses without having a web site. Once I got my site, I didn't remember a thing and I had to start all over. I am a little slow on WordPress, but I am moving forward. You can do it, take your time.

Take it slow. I went too fast and made the big mistake of skipping around with the lessons. That is a sure way to get confused.

Take your time. I have seen some posts where members have gone through the training, 2 and 3 times. If, that's what it takes to grasp all of "this" then do it.

I also keep a lot of notes. I find that just by writing things that I have learned down on paper, helps it stick in my memory better.

Great advice.

The main struggle I had was 1) the overload of information on the internet regarding Affiliate/Internet marketing. It's easy to get caught up in it so now that I'm a part of WA I pretty much just focus on my lessons. 2) the overload of information on Wealthy Affiliate...LOL! There is so much information on this site that it can be overwhelming. I think in general my issues were just staying on task and I definitely think WA helped with that. I just follow the step by step lessons and do exactly as Kyle and Carson say. So far so good.

Hi - I struggle with time management mostly. I have a 9-5, and 3 young boys - so by the time I get on here at night, I'm already quite tired.

I also struggle to not read posts - people asking for help, or people answering questions for help - and contributing where I can add some value.

But I can say that as I immerse myself within WA - things do begin to click - and you start to get a real sense of what you should be doing. I'll get around to it (I am working on it), but I also really enjoy the social aspect of WA. It's my FaceBook :) But for a good end game - rather than pointless pictures of your breakfast!!

All the best, Mark

One step at a time!

I suffered from information overload when I found WA. What do I do next? How do I do that? Should I do this? A million questions. The way WA helped me was by having a step-by-step way of teaching and a checklist at the end of each lesson. It doesn't take long before you feel like you are really accomplishing something which reinforces your motivation to keep going.
