Did I Hit My Goals for the Month?

Posted on March 3rd, 2008 as Goals, Site News

Planning

I can’t believe we are in March already. It seems like yesterday we where just coming out of January. Since the month is over lets recap and see how I did on my goals for the month. My goals for Febraury where:

  • Finish my blog design
  • Get a better logo designed
  • 2500 Visitors
  • Write 15 posts
  • Get 25 subscribers
  • Comment on 3 new blogs a week

So how did I do on my goals?

  • Finish my blog design - Almost done need one or two minor things but I don’t think I ever will be finished with it
  • Get a better logo designed - Completed, I got that setup the last week of the month but I finally got that completed
  • 2500 Visitors - I really missed this goal.I only had 873 Visitors for the month.
  • Write 15 posts - I had 18 posts not including announcements so I managed to hit this goal
  • Get 25 subscribers - Another goal that I missed I had around 11 subscribers according to feedburner
  • Comment on 3 new blogs a week - I have been averaging 4 new blogs and commenting more

I started the month strong and was lacking towards the end and I know that had some impact. I am a little sad though on how low my visitors where. I realize I need to digg in and keep working hard to improve these numbers. So how am I going to work on improving the stats on my blog?

  • I am going to write longer posts with more frequency
  • I purchased 125×125 ads on winning the web and internet babel, and thomas sinfield
  • I have started a campaign with Project Wonderful to get my ad on more sites
  • Comment on more blogs
  • I am also debating purchasing a review from a blog (just not sure which one)

Top Commenter Winner

Stack of chips

Another month has passed and it’s time to announce the Top Commenter winner for February. This month I was offering 500 Entrecard credits to the top commenter for the month. Thank you to everyone who commented and left some good comments. I feel this month was better comment wise even though I did not have as many comments. Without further delay the winner is Willhaynes.

Congratulations Willhaynes I know you just barely missed it last month so it was good to see you win it this month. Will please send me a email and I will send you the credits. Thanks again to everyone who entered. Don’t forget the top commenter contest goes every month so if you did not win this month it could be next month.
