I’ve made a lot of good progress this week. I did not complete everything on the to-do list I made for myself at the beginning of the week, but that is because I was so focused on my golf blog onlinecaddie.blog. It is still very much a work in progress obviously, but I feel really good about my first post, 8 Etiquette Tips that are Important to Know for Every Beginner Golfer. I worked really hard on it and used SEO tactics. Again, still a lot to clean up. I definitely struggle the most with the actual website design and making it look “professional”, I plan to work on this more in the next few days. What I am excited about is putting out more content and growing the credibility of the page, because I have a lot of ideas for blog posts that I can write next.
Looking at what I planned to accomplish this week vs. what I did accomplish this week, it doesn’t look great. However, with the progress that I made, I still feel good about the direction I am going in.
What I planned to accomplish this week:
- Start Social Media for Daily Content Writer
- Start “Online Caddie”
- Come up with a list of content and start my first post
- Figure out how to share resources while giving proper credit
What I did accomplish this week
- Started “Online Caddie”
- Worked on making the website more presentable, still more work to do on that front
- Write, finish, and publish my first post
I essentially completely ignored this blog this week, which I think was good for me. Not only are there still 0 readers on this site, but it allowed me to focus on the actual product that I want to put out. And there are already far more visitors on that page than this one which is encouraging.
I still plan to do social media for this website and continue to work on it to make it more marketable, but this blog is far more personal and not exactly a top priority of mine right now. One thing this week made me realize is that it is a lot of work to blog, much more than I thought. I can’t believe I even considered the thought of starting more than two at a time. Once I feel more comfortable about where Online Caddie is and how it looks to the potential reader, then I will invest a little more time into this blog. By then, I should have a bit more content and have a better idea of how to organize it.
I plan to work more on the site this weekend, but my next check in here will most likely take place on Monday. Where I will again, make my to do list for the week. Over and Out.
