Thanks

Chris! Thanks for the info. I am new to blogging and will keep your tips in mind. I too when I first started was not consistant with posting. I am now more mindful of posting and constistantly trying to learn more about blogging as well posting content. I find once I have my topic in mind the creative juices start to flow.

I think I worry too much about what others think but I am slowly finding my voice.

To your Success!!! 🙂

Hey Chris, great job on the blog! Congratulations, your numbers are looking good!
I’m with Adam in that choosing which metrics to track (the ones that are important in your business) and then setting goals and tracking systems in place to measure those metrics will keep you not only informed of your progress (or lack of at times) and also act as a source of encouragement. I mean who doesn’t like forward progress right? 🙂

In reply to Harshit Singhal. Hi Harshit, thanks for your comment. You are right - targets, especially weekly, monthly and yearly are very important.

Very very useful tips for any new blogger Chris. Another one I would like to add is to set daily, weekly and monthly targets to spur the growth of your blog.

Hi Yeremi thanks for the info about Alexa, I’m really excited about it (my plan is to be below 100k till the middle of September, but it’s harder and harder…)
BR, Chris

Thanks for this great post, Chris! If not for the fact that you mentioned how young your blog is, I would have thought it has been here for at least a year.

Just a few months of work and already with an Alexa rank 167k. 🙂

Great job and an inspiration…

Really liked this post – especially the closing point about not giving up. I have a 2 year old and another arriving soon (7 weeks) so my blogging may take a slight hit over the next few months! But, I certainly wont give up – this site and many others are the inspiration sometimes to show what can be achieved with hard work!

Excellent source of information.

Thanks for your comment, RCONNORIII. I don’t know, if this picture is real – I bought it. But my children (3y and 5y) are also good painters 😉
BR, Chris
