Surprised with SEO Score after upgrade. Level Up?

After doing so much on the free version, I realized my page wasn’t really going to be seen much at all unless I either upgraded, or shared it constantly to try and bring some traffic. As I’m still really new at all this, I’m finding I’m a little too hungry for feedback and engagement which is making my advertising coming across a lot more spammy than I want to be doing. I’d really like to be just creating more anyway than trying find the people into what I’m creating.

Hoping upgrading the site will help w/this a bit, just allowing people to find my stuff and what I’m trying to do more organically. Featured image is a pic of what it rated the sites Search Engine Optimization after the upgrade, which is encouraging. Makes me feel like despite not knowing much about what I’m doing yet I’m still doing a decent job. I have also noticed more site traffic naturally since it was upgraded yesterday afternoon.

I realize I’m doing more niche stuff, and my Designs aren’t particularly everyones vibe. As well as the fact my site shows I’m still figuring out my direction and what things are going to work for me. I want to find a balance of the things I enjoy doing and get excited about, but also what my future followers are into. So I’m still very much at a phase I’m looking for feedback on stuff, and very open to constructive criticism and suggestions. I am a lil stubborn and still want to do things with my vibe and flavor, but I also listen to feedback and try and find what works for me in the middle, or can be convinced I need to change something with just some reasonable details.

I mostly come from a collectible card game / video game retail background, and have been developing my own CCG over the years. I’ve created my own custom “Card Creator” file in Photoshop elements. More details about all that can be found on my About Page and in my Blog/Updates. All engagement / support greatly appreciated. Gonna just keep working and making stuff like I already have thousands of followers or I’m just looking for that one Super Fan haha.

Thanks for Reading =)~

500 Views Milestone

500 view milestone reached 3-18-24. Still using free version so I’m happy w/the progress so far. Really makes me wish I could afford the upgrade sooner than later even more now though that I’ve put a ton of work into it LOL. I didn’t realize until a couple days ago I can’t tag anything to show up in search engine stuff w/out paying for the upgrade like 3 tiers in >< =( On page specifically anyway which is partly why I started a Blog lol.

I finished rounding out my Designs Collections page these last several days. Has auto-scrolling (pause-able) Slideshows, expandable Gallery View, links to stores, design details, and ability to like the specific collection. Because this page is so image heavy, w/auto scrolling images, this is the page I’m most concerned about how well it loads and works. If I get a feedback on any page atm it would be the one described.

But I also put a ton of details in my About / Contact page for anyone interested in seeing details about the Designer, Collectible Trading Card Game Development I’ve been working on over the years that has gotten me to this point, or any other details I’ve been adding to the page to make it more personalized. *Example Below with link to blog post*

My Card Creator Working File

I’ve been at this new venture pretty non-stop several months now trying to figure things out and what direction is going to work for me. Getting the acceptance letter from InkedGaming.com was pretty great news, but they had a hang up with my electronic approval the first time I signed it and I haven’t heard back from them yet. So still waiting to figure that out and see where that goes. Being on playmats dice bags etc. will be great for me as I was trying to focus a lot of my products in the tabletop gaming area as it’s something I’m passionate about.

All feedback / support greatly appreciated. (likes, comments, follows, shares etc.) I don’t really have much experience with the specific things I’m trying to branch into, haven’t built a website before, still learning design placement for Apparel to make it more visually appealing, especially women’s clothing so feedback is appreciated. I know some of my stuff is pretty bold and eccentric and not for everyone, but willing to make adjustments in sizing background color etc on request / feedback. Thanks for reading!

My Website Design Experience and Qualifications

I don’t really have any LOL. I inquired with a local place that quoted “starting at $2500” to help me build a website. As most of my motivation for starting my online stores was needing some income now, I just decided I’d figure it out myself LOL. So I’m still learning, w/the free version of wordpress for now until I can afford to upgrade.

I did take an html class in high school, which isn’t really that applicable now as I don’t really remember much of it and it’s not really used as much anymore anyway. But it probably helped give me a basis of understanding of what I’m trying to do.

Once I started, I noticed it was really giving me throwback vibes from building my MySpace lol, so I even added my Motivation / Keep the energy going spotify music playlist to my page haha. Hope you’re enjoying my website as much I’m enjoying making it LOL. I’ve spent about all this week working on it and feeling really happy with how it’s coming along.
