My Head Hurts Just Trying to Keep Up With It All

Recently, I have been taking every webinar I can get my hands on to learn more about SEO and the blogging world and how all of that helps me with ranking in Google. In fact, I signed up for SEO TO THE TOP - the 9 week course taught by AR Superstar Katerina Gasset. It is full of incredible information and I feel like I am putting all the pieces together but each week I log on and am ready to absorb like a sponge and at the end of the webinar, my brain feels like it is going to explode!

Don't get me wrong, I find all of it very interesting and I do want to learn it. But I am a mortgage broker and suddenly I am trying to turn myself into a web guru! On days like today it does begin to wear on my psyche a little on if I can pull this off and make it work for my business. I mean really, I am venturing into this whole different world in which people get paid alot of money to do (all well deserved) and I won't say that I question my ability to get it all right. I know there is a learning curve in every adventure and I believe I am on the verge of emerging from the dark side but I do understand why people just pay to get all of this done for them.

The social networking, SEO strategies, keywords, videos, Google maps, Google tools, blogging and I am sure I am missing something but could I be the only person who seriously sometimes wishes I could snap my fingers and my phone would just start ringing from all the leads I was getting??

In the case of every thing we do, hard work will pay off in the long run and so I will keep my eye on the ball that is until I go cross eyed from watching all the webinars!
