Month 3 and rocking !
Like the tree is the photo above- This is what I have done
Hi to everyone at WA
Foundation
I joined WA on June 14th 2018 and knew nothing about building an online business and doing all the training taught me exactly what is needed to build a solid foundation.
What are the most important things I learned
- Content: Yes, write lots of really good content
- Keyword research: Another vital component to a great foundation
Since I started with WA I have written 127 posts/pages of content some with the site content platform and others straight to WordPress and this is my solid foundation.
Indexed and ranking:
Yesterday, my brain felt a little dull so I asked David(Godsmack) in live chat how to check my ranking and he kindly reminded to go to Jaaxy ranking so Off I went and Wow!!!
I got so excited to see I was ranked on Google at no.2 on page 1, no 3 on page 1 and on Yahoo I was ranked 1 on page 1 for a few posts and also with Bing.
I was thrilled as I had no idea what my rankings were as I had been so busy adding content to my sites I never gave it a thought until yesterday and having been to Jaaxy ranking, I know what I am doing is really working. Here are 2 screenshots of 2 different sites.
I am not showing you this to brag however seeing this I hope will inspire anyone who is working to build a successful online business by sharing what I have done.
I know I have worked extremely long hours and have needed to find the right balance and now thankfully I have a weekly/daily plan and I stick to it and my goal is to publish 1 post per day giving me 350 for 1 year with holiday time and specials days for a break
I want to thank everyone who helps me when I need it and to Kyle, Carson, and The trainers for teaching me all I know today.
I love helping people, I love learning and I am over the moon today with how my businesses are really coming together in the online world.
Focus on your GOALS. Plan your work and work your plan
Never think you can't do it - Remember Impossible = I'm Possible
Everything you do moves you closer to success in fact just doing this is success and I wish everyone here at Wealthy Affiliate the best adventure you have ever had with your online business
Go well, go happy and may you and Google become best friends
Thanks for stopping by

Hi Christine
Yes, it really is and I did push myself to my limits doing this.
I set my goals and then I went on and achieved them, however, I also realized while I was pushing myself this hard that balance was also very necessary and thank goodness I know this and working feels a lot more cruise
I wish you success on your journey and it doesn't have to happen overnight. Balance is more important :)

Jaaxy is great isn't it! To get an accurate idea of where you're ranking make sure to search just your focus keyword, not the full title, and not with hyphens, and in the domain field add your domain, but not the full url in either field.
When you search with hyphens it matches the tail end of your url exactly and will show as #1 and you want to get an accurate representation of where you're at :) Keep up the great work!
Hi Eric and yes - this is how you do it for sure
Loving Jaaxy and how it helped me learn yesterday and now in the future as well
Hope all is great with you and thank for stopping by:)
Vicki
Absolutely, Vicki :) And for future reference you'll want to remove those hyphens in the keyword field and search only the keyword, not the full title. As an example, one of my post's focus keywords is How to make money with wealthy affiliate, so I'd enter that in the keyword field just like that, no hyphens. Then for the domain I'd enter http://workfromyourlaptop.com, not the full url for the article. That will give you the accurate search you're looking for :)
Ok cool thank you so much- will go back and do it again and see what results I get :)
Vicki
That's what community is all about. The reason behind it is that you want to see where your article will pop up from natural searches, and of course natural searches occur without the hyphens. The great thing is that sometimes our content will rank for keywords we didn't even forsee. I've had articles not rank for the keywords I intended and instead rank for a much better keyword. The key, just like you said, is consistency and keeping your reader experience your primary focus :) Keep up your writing!
Hi again Eric and thank you for your input - I really value input from people who know what is needed
Yes, I have a plan to write 1-2 posts every day to reach my intended goals as I am on a mission to go to Vegas not this time around of course lol. I do need to sleep sometimes
Thanks again
