Hi Swandster! Check out your Dashboard and see that your blog is Number 3 in the "Top Ten" So glad to see you stepped out and blogged. See, that wasn't so hard, right? Proud of you! Keep up the good work!

I know that several people have said just start over. My advice if you like your niche is to enhance. Never throw anything away, follow through. Yes you can start over but you can also redo what you have. Perhaps you want to take another direction with another niche and this is fine too. But consider the work you have put in, look at the direction of the site now and see if there is a way to move ahead with something you like better.

Just a thought.

Thank you so much will take a deep breath and start again tomorrow, the encouragement and enthusiasm of everyone here is truly inspirational. I think WA would be so easy to promote even as an add of for professionals in Social Media of SEO or website creation, I just think it is a must have as the education is so comprehensive

Here is your lecture. >Lecture, Lecture, Lecture< You have only done what just about thousand of others have done. At least you didn't throw in the towel. You will be just fine. My first site was for experience as I call it now. Just stick with the training and ask for help in chat when you need it.
Best wishes to you.

Thank you for all the help - I really appreciate this, you are so right it is so easy to get diverted....I am going to put ideas in my head before sleeping and hope in the morning the path will be clear!! sounds a bit cooky!! but think standing back is always good????

So many options - take the first and start. I have found that I return to the first lessons and redo just to see what I have missed or what I can do better. And yes my website look much better with time. Things do get changed and do get added. Write your goals down for the day. This helps with concentrating on one idea. Don't move on until task is completed. Or write it down to return to the next day. Sometimes lessons take time. This also helps with organizing time.

Thank you all so much for responding - this is wonderful and great to know I am not speaking to the wall!! I will blog so much more please promise not to get too bored11

After we learn from our mistakes, it is sometimes better to start with a clean slate. I have found also that one topic leads to another. It is very difficult to concentrate on one topic especially since in our research it leads us to new ideas. Good luck

Rinse. Repeat. I wouldn't agonise over trying to choose a "perfect" niche. I think my first three lasted as many weeks. I'd also avoid anything that'll be a pain to write about or flesh out after a few posts. If there are news streams for a topic, it can make life a lot easier. I'd certainly start with something you're passionate about or at least interested in. Then progress from there. I doubt your first niche will be your last. ;) Rich.

I feel you swandster, I am on the same both like you.
