Update! -
Alright guys... so today I did have to work but did a little bit of things on my breaks and also took care of some things lastnight. Lets go over what I did!
- Worked on the Facebook Page. My facebook page for my authority site now has 116 likes! This may not be a lot for some of you but this is pretty exciting for me so far! All I have done is boosted a couple of posts and had a couple of buddies share some things. I wrote down stats for each boost which had a budget of $15 each. Tomorrow is my last day of the week to work so I will try promoting the actual page tomorrow (instead of just posts) and compare it to stats of post boosting, see which one works better, and go off of that. Anyone have any comments on this with their own experience? Which one worked better for you and what else did some of you do to promote your pages? Any feedback is greatly appreciated.
- Worked on the authority site - On the authority site, I have found what I believe to be "pdg hosting" . Pretty Damn Good Hosting. Then again I dont have much experience with hosting so time will tell. It had awesome reviews though. For those that are wondering, it is VPS hosting. I went with VPS hosting for the simple reason of being able to let it grow with my site without any, or not much, down time. Plus they seem to be a happy medium with performance and cost.
- Thought of the perfect name for my online business. I will be checking the domain for this tomorrow. I don't see it being open though. We shall see.
- Did a lot of research how to setup the site itself. A lot of people tend to forget that not everybody knows how to do this stuff. I dont consider myself un-skilled on a computer, but I am def no techie that's getting offered a job from a programming company anytime soon. Having a feeling that it is going to be something that I learn more of as I start doing it. You can only learn so much by reading and researching. You REALLY start learning when you get hands on with things. So that is what I am starting tomorrow. I am going to attempt to install the theme and get started with some content. How is it that a lot of you learned to actually set the site itself up? How did you learn the ins and outs of wordpress and themes and everything else? I would love to hear from some of you on this matter.
For today that is it guys, Im about to go crash the hell out and sleep like a baby in a craddle. Sorry I dont have much more to bring you for the day but tomorrow I wont have to worry about going to work the next day so I will be able come home and sit down and focus on more things.
So be looking for an update from me tomorrow! Quote for the night :
