Stuff Goes WRONG! So, Fix It

12811864499?profile=RESIZE_710x

Hi ALL!  I am George Pierce, this post is about how we respond when our online efforts go wrong.  I still remember my early days online, and I hope that your reaction is similar to mine.  I felt an urgency to fix it, also I took it almost 'personally'.  Most of us put more than just our time and effort into our online creations, we also invest a certain amount of care and love.  So when something goes wrong, I believe that it is OK to take it a little 'personally'.

What is NOT OK is to ignore our errors and mistakes, or worse, to quit.

Things are going to go wrong, it is part of the process, and when that happens, it presents an opportunity for you to learn and improve.

My Story:

The following snapshot is a recent email.  

12811892900?profile=RESIZE_710x

About a month ago, I set up five WordPress sites, two on free hosting sites (Altervista and Infinity Free) and three on ggpierce dot com, which is my AIOP site.  In my opinion, Altervista is the BEST free WordPress host, Infinity Free is second, and AIOP is the BEST paid host, you not only get hosting, but you also get a complete marketing platform, all the tools you need including unlimited autoresponder, and training for less than what many hosts charge for just hosting.  

The reason for the sites was to give five of my video channels an added boost, by driving traffic to the sites, as well as links.

Recently, I got an email from Quality Monitoring (a free service from AIOP that monitors my ggpierce sites).  All of a sudden, my SEO score went from 100 to 0 due to broken links.  I have been quite lucky at SEO for over 15 years, so, yes, I took this SEO red flag a bit personally.  The broken links were not broken ~HUH?  They were good links, but they did not work.  

What I learned, or was reminded of, is that WP is like a worldwide quilt, an Internet patchwork that has evolved over the years.  Every once in a while your WP site may experience a glitch or a hiccup for no apparent reason.  WP has awesome plugins that allow you to do almost anything you can imagine with a WP site, and these plugins include numerous backup options. Be sure to add a plug-in that will back up your WP site. All these plugins are supposed to work in harmony, once in a while, they do not. 

As you can see above the SEO is back to 100.

If your online experience is anything like mine, you are going to make all kinds of mistakes and you are going to inherit a few errors that are like the one above.  

Each is truly a learning opportunity, so embrace it and fix it as soon as possible.

Thank you for reading.

Much success,

George Pierce
