Finally!
If you have spent anytime on my site, you quickly realize that while my recipes are Top Notch, the rest of my site is pretty lacking – go ahead and say it, I have thick skin. My theme is basic, my pictures are at the level of a challenged beginner and while my recipes ROCK – did I already mention that – the flow, story telling and again, photography are clearly lacking. BUT, I still am getting decent traffic and favorable comments, so at least there is that.
I have done some studying on SEO and how to gain additional traffic and status on Google. Much of what I have read is basic and the other parts are still a little over my head. The reason I want traffic on my site is to share my story, encourage others to at least try a plant based recipe, to improve the lives of people and our animal friends and to have a positive impact on our environment. Seems like a reasonable ask, RIGHT?
So, let’s get to the Finally! I have finally got a couple of my recipes to show up on a Google search. Who cares if they are on page 4 of the search – They are THERE! That is due to the traffic and positive feedback I have received. It may not be much, but it’s a start and heading in the right direction.
Progress
My goal from the start was to show regular people that there are great benefits from a plant based diet. Going vegan is another whole step and I get it. Would I love to be part of the reason people adopt a vegan lifestyle – of course I would. Do I think that is realistic – maybe not, but if my story, my 3 pillars to being vegan, my Big and Bold awesome recipes and my passion, commitment and communication can get someone to consider, try and adopt at least a plant based diet – We All Win!
So for today, I am super excited that some of my recipes are reaching people who are searching for something better. I commit to continue to learn how to improve my site, how to come up with more Awesome recipes, how to better communicate all the benefits of living a plant based diet or dare I say, a VEGAN lifestyle. I guarantee you will feel better, your mental health will improve, your ailments will be improved and the world will also benefit from your efforts. Give it a try, don’t be scared, it’s not as difficult at you think – the only outcome will be Positive.
