Progress Report After 1 Month

460 followers

So, its been a month and I'm happy to say that I haven't quit yet! Just kidding, but yes I am still in the blogging business. I've gotten to the part in the training where they want me to write a blog reporting my progress so far...so, here I go.

I spent the majority of the first 2 wks doing the trainings and going step by step as best I could. The last 2 wks, I have been spending more time writing posts and trying to fill out my website. Which I think is probably a good thing. I'm currently in course 4, so I feel I've made good progress on the education side.

Am I allowed to drop my website here? I hope so, here goes. My website is:

www.the-home-gym.com

I chose the home fitness niche...writing about how to exercise at home, what equipment to use, proper nutrition, etc. As of today, I have 12 posts and 4-5 pages I think. The pages are basically the intro information and about me. All of my reviews and writings have been in form of posts.

I've learned soon much in the last 4 wks, really pretty amazing. I had 0 experience in website creation or blogging... I didn't even use social media, I really spent very little time on the internet before this. I didn't know what affiliate marketing was or that it could be turned into full time income.

I'm proud that in 4 wks I have learned what affiliate marketing is, created a website, and have written 12 posts...all while doing this part-time. I'm surprised at how much I have been enjoying it. I was nervous when I signed up because I have never been much of a writer. But I must say, I am enjoying the process of creating posts. It's exciting. I'm sure if I ever start making money it will be more exciting.

So, right now my main concern is getting traffic. A month in and I have had a handful of clicks. My biggest concern is that my niche is too broad or too competitive and I will be unable to get the traffic I need to start making conversions.

My 3 month goal: to get my first sale!

My 6 month goal: to continue increasing traffic and start getting regular conversions.

Thats it. I'm happy with my first month and enjoying the process. Everybody here at WA has been great and I would like to thank the community here for all the help and support it provides.
