So I finished my website...Now what?

Well, I am sitting here working on business, Hannah finally is asleep. There is a lot to do with the holidays coming up but since I just recently finished developing my website(What an accomplishment!!) So now what?????
I ask my trusted friend who informs me that I need to "Go live". Okay....that project accomplished.
So she says.....Now you market it......Say what? She tells me about target keywords. meta tags, submitting to search engines.....which feels like a foreign language film to me!!!
So I am going to be up all night...trying to figure out how to market my website so that the search engines pick it up and people find me. Well, perhaps if you are reading this, you might have found my website...or blog...
As they say...with time and trial comes accomplishment. As with life, you learn something new everyday...and today is all about marketing my website and getting one step closer to my goals!!

Still learning...

Hi. I am sitting here with my daughter watching her shows, because she is home from school. We have a snowstorm and it has been snowing since 6am, and there is about 7 inches on the ground already.
I am new at this but I find I am still learning, the learning process has more than one focus, my home candle business. There are many aspects to learning...I have to learn how to be a parent to my 7 year old who thinks she is a teenager....I was just getting used to the 6 year old she was.I can't imagine what my life will be like when she is a teenager as it seems hard now. I am learning how to deal with being disabled and not being able to work as a nurse any longer. That was all I knew..I worked in Obstetrics and NICU...I really loved my career. You never really plan for "what if?"....something should happen and you can no longer work.....you have no income and use all of your life savings to pay bills.....you have to care for not only yourself but a young child who doesn't understand life yet.....care for your child who has her own set of medical problems.....and you need to do it all alone because your husband wants a separtation because he wasn't prepared for the "For worse" part of the marriage vows......
So, I had to learn how to..... care for my daughter and her medical problems, which I think I have managed to come to terms with. I have now accepted that I will always be a nurse, I won't lose that knowledge I have, but I needed to find new ways to help people.I have to find new ways to make an income, because my daughter means everything to me, and She deserves a good life! And I am proud of myself because I was able to accomplish all of this by myself and have become Independent in the process!!
I did a lot of online research and found a way to work from home and MLM. I found a wonderful person, Lisa Willard, who got me started in online marketing by becoming my business partner, and I consider her a good friend now. But she has been an awesome inspiration and source of the knowledge I needed to learn how to do this and be independent .
I found the Gourmet Candle Home Business and it feels like the perfect fit and what I needed to accomplish all of my goals.
So, about the business....
I had information overload in the beginnning because this is all totally new to me....all I knew was nursing...
I had to learn how to navigate the computer.....develop my website....advertise and market myself(the product speaks for itself) but no one knows me...learn what a blog is and how to blog!
I tried to absorb(and print out!) everything I found....I went through 3 ink cartridges on my printer in 1 week time!!!!But I am more knowledgable about the candle business now....I have become a "product of the product" but don't get me wrong...there is so much more learning to do.....
But now I have a purpose and goals to lead me along my path to becoming a success in the Gourmet Home Candle Business.
