Hi I am new here too.

But.

I would say this. You really need to focus on the training.
This is not a get rich scheme. This is a change your lifestyle scheme

So this is going to take time and effort.

Yes it would have been better to have signed up for the year and focus on building your website with the amazing training offered.

But that is done now. So start moving forward with building a solid foundation for you future.

Also you can get some amazing help by reading some of the blogs posted here daily.

I have learned just as much from the blogs posted here along with the training.

oh and congratulations on your referral. Remember it is a numbers game. Work on getting more traffic to you website.

I hope this helps

Hi Boaz,
I opted for the one year deal. Now I am no longer
interested. Too much cheering and no income
seems to be running rampant. So just forget the 400
investment and get on with a real life.. No point
in crying about a spill.

I tried PPC but ROI was bad, FB adds for WA were disapproved because FB doesn't like an online money making adds, so I stopped spending money on adds for now.
Now, I fill up my website with content as good as I can make it and hope that organic traffic will eventually start doing its part soon.

Regarding WA referrals, of course, it is difficult because it seems that everybody is already a WA Premium member :)

Try using Facebook ads, starting at $20 where you can use extra tools for targeting your niche audience. You will need to start a business group page first and get it set up with your website. Then you can choose to either create an ad to drive traffic to the website or craft an offer to sell a product. Good luck!

Let me say i want to give you two more technical questions that you have to think: How did you build your funnel? what is your offer?

If you need help don't esitate to contact me, I would be happy to help you out.

Boaz, hello! It is completely unclear, why you are dejected: you have been in WA for 2.5 months (since May 24, 2018), you deserve three badges, the last -3 level of certification. So, shake up, My Dear, and continue to study with interest. You have the beautiful Tanakhic name Boaz.

Sorry for the loss my friend. Do as advised by our friends, be patient, learn, learn and learn again to build the foundation of your business!

Hey Boaz,
I don't pay for advertising so I guess I can't answer this for you.

Tried and True

Ouch...that's like a kick somewhere very painful. Can't you upgrade to yearly now?

I suggest you don't use any adds company to drive traffic, it's a waste of time and money.

Learn it the hard way, do it by yourself.
Before running PPC campaign, you should really learn What is all about, Why, How and When you can do it.

Some companies will spend hundreds of thousands of dollars every month on PPC, however, they know what they can expect in return.
If you don't have this kind of data, you will burn your money, it's all you will be doing.

Go slowly and step by step, it takes time, however, I believe it's the best way.

This is just my opinion, though.

Blog post/article are what you put on your website as grow

A website is a collection of related pages and a blog is a part of those related pages. This is what I learned.

In my humble opinion I would say yes. I am a newbie though.

I look at it this way. Your website is your house and the pages and posts are what is inside your house. What I do is, whatever titles are on my website menu, I make them pages. If I am selling Black Opal I will make Black Opal a page so viewers can see it on the menu on their initial visit. If I am writing about Black Opal I make them blogs. Blogs, posts, and articles are the same thing, just different wording. I use pages to promote my brand and posts to describe my products and link texts on my pages text to my posts.
Interlinking is important.
My advice is to use your most important and product promoting material as your pages and include them in your menu and the rest as posts, blogs, articles whatever you want to call them. Bare in my mind, you can also do submenus if you want to make them all pages but put the most important on your main menu.

I hope this helps you.

Cheers,

Brad

It depends on your point of view. I run websites that include blogs on them and in that case, there is a difference. The blog is only a small part of my website.

Derek

My question would be what is the difference between a blog a post and an article. Subtle differences or essentially the same thing?

Paul gave a good description between a blog and a website and Wendi below gave an excellent analogy What is a Blog?

Think of it like a house.
A website is a whole house.
A blog is a room in the house.
Hope this helps.
Wendi :)

Blogs can be components of websites A website is a composite of blogs, articles, and other works!

Yes, a website can have many forms, one of which is a blog. If you Google your question, you will get many more detailed answers.

I agree with rjkennedy. I went back through the video then practiced researching the keywords. Look for most hits avg >100 and least competition qsr

Only thing I could suggest is to go back and pull up the Training class link regarding 'keywords'. Maybe you'll find your answer there.

Hi Boaz,
Use Jaaxy. It's the best way to get excellent keywords

I still struggle with the best keywords to use, so I don't want to give you the wrong advice, sorry.
Mary

I don't think so Boaz because I got indexed in Google pretty quickly and I'm sure I'm WAY behind a lot of other members in the speed in which I crank posts out. It's a mystery to me how they do it but that's O.K! Some things I prefer to remain mysterious! ;-]

Wish I could help, I just do not want to give you the wrong information. Wishing you success.

You have to be a detective when researching them you want the best keyword you can find. Keywords are the most important part of your post.article.

Jaaxy is a very good keyword tool, Kyle shows you many ways to find keywords.

Karen

Not really Ethan, keywords are words or more specific, phrases that surfers type into the search engine to find the answers to a query they may have.
Therefore it is the content that is written pertaining to a keyword that Google ranks.
The more relevant the content of a keyword/phrase the better Google likes it and the higher your content will rank.
As soon as your website is indexed Google knows about it and it is then up to the webmaster to write content that is both relevant and descriptive of the subject pertaining to the keyword/phrase, to get Google to place the article as high as they believe will be of benefit to the public.

It can be like this in the begining. if it heps this is how I do my own research in conjunction wiht the raining.

I choose a phrase or question, then google it, then depending on the options or variations of that which come up, I put the top two or three phrases into Jaaxy and chhose my phrase from that report, which helps get my site ranked

Does that help

Hey, Boaz! Keywords in your content attract others to your site. The more unique they are, the better they rank and gain traffic. They help to present what your content is all about. You are doing very well, my friend! Here is a lesson that may help you better understand keywords and their significance! Understanding Keywords, The Start of Your Content Erin :)!

As much as we all say, WA ranking isn't important because it has nothing to do with our website ranking, it is still disheartening to see it climb. But it is what it is..just continue to follow what you are inspired to do and it will change again. Comments below give a good explanation for the climb.
Debbie

Yes, don't let the ranking thing get in the way. I was hovering at 500 and now back up to about 2700. It is all about how active you are on here at WA....so for myself, I am just taking each day as it comes and accomplishing what I can. Sometimes I am busy on here but most of the time I am researching, working on my website or dealing with life :).

Some things don't make sense in the beginning but hopefully it turns out to be a positive.

How do I get my Google+ ID is to my email Jonathan3all@gmail.com And add to my profile
For example https:/google.plus/Jonathan3all or is there an ID #

Don't get disheartened friend. Keep going as you are.
Stay focussed on your goals/dreams :)
You got this!
Much appreciation for you:)

Di :)

My ranking is doing the same thing!
John

Some of the information in this post by Carson may help you to understand the WA ranking system. Ambassador Ranking 2017 Update: Pay-it-forward! If others are more active than you, they can actually move your ranking upwards even though you had the same activity from the day before.

Don't put too much effort into the whole thing unless you have an abundant amount of time to spend boosting your WA ranks.

Just because someone is an Ambassador does not mean they are making money. You can achieve low numbers here by just being social, but that takes you away from the reason that you are here: to learn, apply that knowledge, and get a website that makes you money!

Hi Ethan,

There are 3 components helper, creator and activity. basically total is your final daily ranking. In order to climb up you need to be constantly active ...

But more importantly: we are talking about a relative position. In other words, even if you are active, you can lose positions if others are gaining more points than you

Simple as that

The others who were around your rank may have just been pushing harder, answering more questions & being more active in the community. So you are not necessarily going backwards, it is merely others going forward :)

No need to get too caught up on your internal WA rank though :)

Do not let the WA ranking bother you too much, as it does not reflect in any way how your website is coming along. Just concentrate on your website and business as the WA rank is not important. My own rank has been up and down since i have joined here last year.
