The 4 'C's of Wealthy Affiliate
Just this morning, I was thinking about what factors into our success here at WA. Then I was thinking about how (many years ago) when my husband bought my engagement ring, it was all about the 4 C's: cut, color, clarity and carat. Well, I think there are 4 C's (sort of) here at WA: content, consistency, community and keywords (OK, that's a k...just go with it...)
Content - people will only keep coming back to your site if you have interesting, well-written, engaging content. Use Grammarly to be sure your writing is free of grammar and spelling errors. And I highly recommend the Yoast SEO plugin for even more writing tips and guidelines for maximizing the searchability of your pages.
Consistency - if you want Google to trust your site, you have to be consistent. Set a weekly schedule of when you will post content to your site and stick to it. I try to post to my blog twice a week, on Mondays and Thursdays. Also, once you get visitors to your site, if you have a schedule, they will inherently know when to visit and expect to see new information!
Community - I am a firm believer in that you get what you give. The family here at WA is exceptional at providing assistance and encouragement. Need comments? Visit the comments page. Need feedback? Visit the feedback page. Need social media followers? There's a page for that too. And all that's asked of you is that you reach out in kind.
Keywords - unique, thoughtful keywords are what will raise your Google search rankings. And the higher you are in the search rankings, the more visitors you'll have to your site. And visitors = conversions! Use Jaaxy and the Keyword Tool here at WA to help you determine the best keywords for your niche. Keep your QSR under 100 to minimize the competition.
The other thing I realized is, I still have and wear my diamond engagement ring every day. And as time has passed, its value has increased. Similarly, as I continue to leverage the 4 C's here at WA, I should see the value of my website grow. So whenever you feel like you need a boost, think of the 4 C's and reach out - there's always someone here to listen, provide encouragement or answer questions you may have. Good luck!

That's a lovely post, many thanks for sharing it with me.
It is an inspiration in it self.
Also, it's a great family here on WA and the members are so supportive and helpful, I cannot thank, Kyle and Carson enough for creating this system to learn and communicate the way we do.
Cheers, Tosh :)

Thanks for the advice, I try to post a new blog at least once a week, sometimes twice. But they take a while to create. Are you saying you post new content to your site every day? Or do you prepare content daily and then post once per week?
I work on them daily. But try to post 3 times weekly. It's hard to post daily when I have a full time job, 2 kids and a lovely wife.
Keep smiling. So sweet.
So true, I too have 2 kids and a hubby and a full time job. It is hard to fit in but I need to be diligent daily so that I'm not 'burning the midnight oil' to get my posts out a couple of times a week!
So sweet. I love your smile. Keep it up.
Thank you! :-)
lovely.
