Keeping with the current theme of this blog — tardiness — I give to you the 2008 Recap post.
Last year’s recap post began with me evaluating my performance based on the goals I set the previous year. I decided to call it a draw as I met one out of the two goals I set for myself. Lets see how I did this year…
- 100 RSS Feed Readers – This one is almost comical as my counter tends to hover around 7 with a standard deviation of about 1. The simple reason for this failure is that I don’t get enough traffic to the blog. More in depth reasons would be no promotion or advertising of this blog, infrequent posting… Failure
- Sign up for more networks - I definitely succeeded here. But to be honest, how difficult is that?… Success
- Break $100 in a day – I am really proud to have finally broken this barrier. What a wonderful day May 2nd most have been for me… Success
- Have $15,000 in the bank – It looks like I am slightly shy of this one if I just count liquid assets. Since that is what I meant when I made the goal… Failure
- Organize the categories - Happy to say that I got around to doing this. There are still a lot of them, but I think they are all appropriate… Success
3/5 isn’t bad.
January
I think I wrote two of my most popular posts in January. They doing well with organic traffic and have a few links from other bloggers… How to track keywords with Adwords and How to track keywords with Yahoo! Search Marketing
April
I started doing some PPC again and set some new records. Everyday is a new record
May
May was the first time I started making, what I consider to be, decent money. With the money came better and more frequent posts.
I began doing monthly affiliate income reports.
First $100 profit day (as I previously mentioned), I spent $4.69 for gas, Adwords site placement tracking, and I had my first guest post.
June
May affiliate income report, $200 profit day, and I started following the stock market (but didn’t jump in… thank God), I hit $500 in revenue, I went to my second undie run, and I went to Italy.
July
September
I saw the end… July affiliate income report.
December
