My About Me post for my website has started out strong. There is less and less written as I have gone on to finish the page though and I peronally feel like it doesnt look good

Publish it, Give it a few weeks and then edit it as needed. I personally don't have an about me anywhere near that long.

Yeah that was my worry. I will probably remove one of the stories as it is related but its not entirely relevant to my life or site atm but could be in the future. Thank you! :)

Hi - you can ask for feedback on this thread, but you will have to publish it to your website first. You can edit it at any time in the future.

Thank you very much.
Okaii thats fine. My privacy policy is up already so might as well just do it then get feedback. Thanks again!

My theme I have chosen to start out with is called Modern Storytelling. It says that I should install the recommended plugin Superb Helper.
It states its my personal WP ass

I agree with Nathaniel. It doesn't look like anything you need. You get training here and it's probably a lot more than that plugin offers. :)

Paula

Thank you :)

I would avoid any "recommended" plugins that come with themes. Usually they are for unnecessary features. Especially in this case, it sounds like it's just to help with SEO and navigation. Wealthy Affiliate already comes with SEO training, and will cover all the "necessary" plugins you have. My advise here is to not install the Superb Helper plugin!

Okaii, thank you. I thought so as there was so much it seemed to include but wanted to make sure first. Thanks again!

Thanks a lot now I can ignore with confidence

This may help

So I'm using the search for my niche ideas however theyre all very low traffic which in turn is low competition.

I'm not wanting to use up all my question searches yet

Low traffic adds up! Even just 10 visits a day x 100 posts is 1000 visits per day!

Plus, you are mainly just STARTING with low competition phrases. As your site grows, you can target higher and higher competition phrases.

Thank you. I've been in bed sleeping off some illness last couple days so I've actually managed to get a good side step for my start up. Not going to lie, probs going to be harder than I think but it gives me room to make 100 possibly more posts instead of 20. I'm excited to finally move forward!

It sounds like you're focusing on traffic and competition, but you should be focusing on what you want to HELP people do.

Do you want to write about dog crates or dog furniture? Do you want to be doing research on on that stuff? Or what is more interesting to you?

So its become DiY pet items/ DiY dog Ideas DiY Pet toys etc. I make diy toys/ enrichment things for my birds and dog which start with something as small as the cardboard from inside a toilet paper roll. Can fill them with food. Both the hirds and dog love to rip cardboard apart and can give the birds an entire day of enrichment and the dog a couple mins. It also helps teach the dog to wait and leave or to 'find it'. I will be building a 2in1 dog and bird cage (bird cage at top) however when I realised im going to need to put it on wheels the amount of research for heavy duty lockable castors took me aback and realised how much potential there is in that niche alone and realised im going to have to figure out how much its going to weigh with and without the animals and how to weigh. I will also be adding in water and waterfall for a natural bird cage so will have to figure the weight of that out too. I'm aware I could do a DiY section from the dog cage furniture website but i feel more comfortable building my website from DiY toys etc.

I feel I'll be able to provide daily content this way whilst im researching the furniture side. I cannot find anything on a 2 in 1 furniture dog and bird cage anywhere however seperately I know both the furniture bird and dog cage exist. The DiY project I will be doing pretty much by myself and was what made me go online to look for ways into funding other ideas like this and thats when I found your website. I dont want to hate the project by pushing myself and ending up skipping valuable information for both my project and the website I build! I feel I wont be able to move forward if i start with the furniture side as i know the research will take me a couple months. I dont always have an off switch or always stick to good time management so i can make myself ill easily leaving no room or time to eat or look after myself as I still have the animals to look after too. A short 15-30 min walk with the dog can quickly turn into 2 hours too.
Ive had some time to think all pros and cons of which way I should start and this is what I feel suits me best as its a long journey :D

Hi, Tatiana! That's a great niche. Go for reviews of cage products or DIY materials for creating exotic dog cage. Do some niche on an exotic or very different from the rest. So maybe start looking for materials for creating such things! All the best. Cheers!

Thank you, yes I've been researching this morning 'heavy duty castors' as I'd like it to be easily moveable however, my personal DiY project includes a top cage and I have no idea on the weight it will be, so I ended up reading a castor company catalog on how they make them and the many different ones there actually are. I am now aware that each item will need more in depth research in order to create something strong and of great quality. Thank you again!

Great. Welcome.

In my humble opinion don't stare yourself blind on those search numbers. There are other ways to get traffic ( f.e. facebook groups , forums in your niche). Create value on your website on regular basis. Take a peek on what others do in your niche and see where you can differ. Hope this helps a bit :-)

Thank you. Yeah thats very helpful. I'll have a look about online and see what I find. These are niches I struggled to find when looking online to purchase things so I will figure out how to get traffic for mine as I know its quiet info out there!

How did you get the words 'your niche' to be blue and double underlined? Also, what does it signify?

No idea Paul, to me it is plain text ,maybe a WA thing because it is topic related?
