Practice-makes-perfect-at-the-Wealthy-Affiliate

This page is about the rest of my first month at Wealthy Affiliate. The first 10 days of my experience you can find HERE 

And this page is about:
1. Dealing with the first major issues
2. My very own domain
3. The struggle with a content creation
4. Finding the right WordPress theme for my website was a big deal
5. Starting all over again
6. Getting to know the WA activity dashboard is a great source of an inspiration
7. The time zone struggle

 

 

Dealing with the first “major” issues


I was seriously stressed out when it came to the first issue I had to deal with. I couldn’t figure out anything and I felt like everything was against me. Even my screenshot tool.

Fellow friends from the WA explained to me that all the newbies go through that stressful process of figuring out “strange” things, and they gave me tips on how to do all of the tasks I found difficult.

My self-confidence rose up again and I was sure again I could do it! I could get everything done!

My very own domain


I finally purchased my very own domain with my name. As an actress, it’s good to have a website that represents my work.

The web page is not done yet, it will be soon 😉

 

The struggle with a content creation


Content has a big role in an online business. In the beginning, I was struggling a lot. I had many ideas on my mind but my fingers just wouldn’t type. And that’s it!

But then, I discovered a fantastic deal! I started writing down whatever was on my mind without thinking of the final product.

Those few pages on the Good Vibe Source website are my first babies. My the first words from my soul that I ever shared with the world. I learned that writing content for the website doesn’t have to be official and standardized.

I realized that writing a blog for me means:
Letting my artistic soul dancing online.

Finding the right WordPress theme was a big deal


I haven’t failed. I just found the ways that did not work!

As a Wealthy Affiliate member, I have access to over 2000 different WordPress themes for free. That means that I can install as many themes as I want and try them all.

I couldn’t decide which one was good enough for my www.thegoodvibesource.com website and I tried many of them.

This is how I got familiar with the WordPress dashboard and realized that some themes require a premium upgrade in order to let you have some features on your web page. As I didn’t have to go for premium I would just switch to another theme. And another. And another.

 

Starting all over again


After one very interesting self-talk on August 9th (my day 15 since I made a commitment), I decided to start all over again. I started my Certification course from the beginning for the third time. This time I created a plan with daily tasks and was going to “rebuild” my two websites.

Well, practice makes perfect!!!

I also decided to start with BootCamp too and see how that goes. So I was spending 4 hours on the Certification course and my niche website and the rest on the BootCamp

New Websites


As I started my Wealthy Affiliate BootCamp, I bought my new domain for that purpose. And that’s this website which you visited today and which grew all the way up to this point that you are reading it’s content!

Do I need to point out how much I am happy for having you here on my page? 🙂

By the end of the first month, I created a Siterubix website for my good friend and I was so happy to use my already gained knowledge!

 

Getting to know the WA activity dashboard is a great source of inspiration


Reading inspiring blogs and success stories written by the Wealthy Affiliate members helped me to go through difficult struggling times.

There is this awesome member, Peter, who posts amazing quotes every day, and that’s his all public activity within the Wealthy Affiliate.

The time zone struggle


Well, it was unthinkable for me to sleep at night during my first month of the commitment I made. I took it so seriously. I was staying up until early morning getting my lessons done, sleeping just a couple of hours after that before getting into work again.

And there is something more I have learned during this first month:

That’s all folks! My first month came to the end! The first 30 days! On August 24, I reached the TOP 200 RANK at the Wealthy Affiliate and went on vacation with my friend.

The next chapter for me to write about and for you to read is the month of September 🙂 But before we get there together, you can feel free to share your thoughts on anything mentioned above.

I will be more than happy to chat with you 🙂

A Great Start Of An Online Business – How To Find The Perfect Niche

I-can-do-it-journal-at-the-Wealthy-Affiliate

The second day of my commitment to my Wealthy Affiliate journey was Wednesday, July 27th, 2016. This was the day when I realized once again in my life that everything happens for a reason and at the right time.

I-can-do-it-journal-at-the-Wealthy-Affiliate

 

I wasn’t up to creating a website just for the sake of creating the website. Instead, I was questioning myself all the time: “How to find the perfect niche?” The one I would enjoy talking about. How to recognize it?

 

My perfect niche


I signed up for the Wealthy Affiliate back in September 2015. when I decided to get into an online business, but I didn’t have any idea how to start at that moment. I was just around reading others’ success stories not getting into mine so much.

I was waiting for some great idea to come to my mind, while studying positive psychology, meditating, and being involved in my spiritual growth more than ever before. That great idea happened!

My goal was to create a place on the internet where people can gain some positive, lovely vibe. So I decided to choose my niche based on my experience with meditations and spirituality I was learning about throughout my life and especially during the last ten months till that moment.

The second day of my commitment was special to me for some other reasons too:

My rank# dropped from 4616 to 3021 in one day

The ranking within the Wealthy Affiliate is important since it is showing the first results of the hard work. As much you are involved with the community and the tasks as more your rank drops.

Being highly ranked in the Wealthy Affiliate means more followers which means more friends which means more positive vibes, more fun, more lessons learned, more help and assistance, possibly getting the ambassadorship, which leads to more followers, more friends, and so on 🙂

 

Setting up goals


The Wealthy Affiliate training is second to none. The first lesson is all about the introduction and getting to know the starting points of the online business, setting up goals, and meeting Kyle (the owner and co-founder).

I set my financial and non-financial goals. Looking back now, my goals at that moment were pretty high lol

More awesomeness


I got introduced to affiliate marketing and understood it pretty much. Kyle is just a perfect teacher. He knows how to convey his knowledge to people. He put the theory into an awesome scheme.

Take a look 🙂

Overall this was a great day, very creative and progressive. I finished the first two lessons of the Online Entrepreneur Certification course, expanded my network, met some amazing people, and once again was amazed by the Wealthy Affiliate community.

Now here is about the rest of my days of the first decade 🙂

 

Day 3 – Thursday, July 28th – I can, or I am doing it


On the third day of my Wealthy Affiliate commitment, I finished lessons 3 and 4 of the Certification course, expanded my network, learned a lot, and got more clear about a niche, offered my help to the folks in a live chat.
The time went by fast which was proof of doing the right thing.

My rank number dropped to 1449.

I bought my domain The Good Vibe Source and built my brand new very own website 🙂

 

Day 4 – Friday, July 29th – Challenge yourself, bet with a friend or do both


I made a bet with my friend that in 3 weeks starting from July 26th I was going to make my first online income. That bet motivated me to get up early and set up my website even though I was up till late working on the tasks.

I finished the tasks from lessons 5, 6, 7, 8 of the Certification course, learned a lot about the keywords and how to search for them and set up my first three pages of The Good Vibe Source.

Very satisfied with the accomplishments, I went to sleep after a long, long working day.

 

Day 5 – July 30 – Level 1 of the course done!


Here is a small part of my journal from that day 🙂

This was such a great day! I was super happy with what I’ve done in a short time 🙂
Some wonderful members gave me great tips especially on my announcement about a decision to have Sundays off.

Day 6 – Day Off – July 31st


My rank number was 911 LOL

I finished the first two lessons on the second level of the course. It came to the point when I had to step away from my computer. I was stuck with writing. Couldn’t get into it. I was so disappointed, and I lost the satisfaction to continue working on tasks.

I also couldn’t figure out how to add my photo to the About me page 🙂

 

Day 7 – August 1st


My rank number was 735.

I fell asleep typing on my computer. I remember now how I was spending hours (all day long) every day studying online business and how to create it. Going through the Wealthy Affiliate tasks, reading other’s stories about success, and daydreaming about my success.

Day 8 – Day OFF – August 2nd


Day 9 – Finding a way to do it – August 3rd


My rank number was 682.
I finished lesson 3 and started the next one.
I couldn’t break through that writing block just yet.

For the first time getting involved in the SiteRubix feedback platform, where is established the “pay it forward system” and in order to get some comments and feedback for your website you need to earn credits. And you earn them by commenting on others’ posts. Awesome Wealthy Affiliate feature.

 

Day 10 – Day OFF – August 4th


My rank number was 602! I would like to be clear about this rank number. That was my way to track my progress. It was my motivation at the very beginning of my commitment. I loved waking up in the early morning just to check my position in the Wealthy Affiliate community.
