Taking A Step Back

I think I jumped into everything a little to fast, a little too hot and a little too ready to go. I am not saying that doing this is a bad thing, I just think for me I need to take a step back and really lay out a blueprint for myself. Lay out a monthly plan, a monthly goal, breaking things down into consumable chunks and move from there. And since it is not technically even the 1st of January I thought doing that now would be the best time and from there I can see exactly where to go.

I am still going to proceed with the ebook on setting up membership sites easily and fully automated but some recent changes to the plugin have caused me to step back and re-evaluate the approach. Of course for the beginner only running one or two of these sites it is easy enough to manage and accept all memberships manually but for a site like TodaysCookie.com manual approval doesn’t cut it. They need the recipe now, not in a few hours and I think having to await approval would drastically kill my conversions and sales so that is a site that needs to be automated now. I am wondering if I keep running the previous version for the time being if it will still remain automated or if I need to upgrade right away.

Personally I think if you have the money to invest, upgrade the memberwing plugin and go for the automation, it will save time and essentially money down the road, but for my book it won’t cut it because the main aspect is for low to no cost, although even under $100 can be classified that, but just not the same appeal.

Another thing I am going to alter is that the cooking niche membership won’t post quite so often, I don’t want the search engines or the pinging sites to black list as being spam, so instead of posting 4 an hour, I am going to drop it back to once an hour, 24 recipes a day is still quite a few and it still works out to a very nice ROI for the purchasers of the membership site.
