The month of October had it’s ups and downs, here are the goals I set and the results I got.

Goals from Last Month

  • Reclaim Alexa ranking of 50,000.
    Instead of reclaiming 50,000 I have dropped to 60,000. How disappointing is that! Looks like I need to be more aggressive in promoting and spreading my content.
  • Increase RSS readership above 350
    I have been averaging about 380 RSS subscribers this month, well over my goal!
  • Increase Technorati ranking into the top 1,750
    My Technorati ranking has dropped this month to 2,879.
  • Maintain a post a day
    I knew this wouldn’t be an easy task and indeed I had written only 26 posts in the last 30 days.
  • Hold yet another giveaway contest
    I did manage to hold a giveaway contest a couple days ago in the form of a little game. The winner, Joyce Badu, won a 125×125 button ad spot on this blog for a full 3 months (a $150 value)!

Goals for Next Month

  • Pull Alexa ranking over 55,000.
  • Increase RSS readership above 400
  • Increase Technorati ranking into the top 2,500
  • Maintain a post a day (give or take)

I’m not trying to be too ambitious next month because like last month, I have a fairly packed schedule. Regardless, I have an exciting project that should be completed before the new year!
I hope everyone else is doing well on their blogs!
