The Maiden Post About the Maiden Voyage

This is my first blog post so here it goes...My first website is now officially up!

I was chugging along through the training course and finished reading Lesson 4: Building Your Own Niche Website. What is my niche? I've got a ton of ideas but I was stuck staring at the screen. I wondered if I should move on to Lesson 5 and come back to this maybe with more information to make a good choice. I cheated and peeked ahead. To my dismay, it was all about setting up the website I didn't have yet. That wasn't going to work. So I stared some more.

I felt like it shouldn't be THIS hard. This is my first attempt and I wanted to start it out right. I thought about it and started writing down ideas. I realized I had a ton of ways I could go with this. So I started asking questions (this is WA afterall). I wrote Kyle and some others I've connected with on here. They gave me answers. I started watching archived webinars on niches and keyword research. I researched some ideas and asked more questions. Finally after a week of every free moment being devoted to this simple question, I finally had it and it wasn't what I was expecting.

It's a small step I know and maybe it doesn't need the gravity that I gave it but nevertheless I feel good about it. So here's a digital bottle to break on my digital boat!

Cheers!
