Today I am at 200,848 – sooo close to that 200,000 challenge marker.  My Alexa rank has been steadily droppnig but really slowed down in the low 200,000's, so I guess it is sort of finding its place now.   Hopefull in the next 2 days I can celebrate breaking the 200,000 mark and then start heading for 100,000. |  |  |  |

Congratulations!  It feels so much better after the Alexa drops below 200,000, and then even better when it keeps dropping! |  |  |  |

Great job Jaymus! I enjoy your site, and I would say in another month or less, you will be at the 100,000 mark. :) |  |  |  |

Keep it up Jaymus and congrats on breaking 200k. If I can give you any advice it is KEEP IT UP!  That's what we've done.  Keep commenting. Guest posting, Hosting carnivals and your own round ups.  Network, be social – keep people engaged (especially those w/ the alexa toolbar … ) We've slowed a lot in our progress but we keep at it week in and week out.  You won't see the progress you saw from 1mil to 500k or 500k to 250k – but there is progress when you keep at it.  Trust me … I read that lots of bloggers are done in 6 months.  As long as we're not "that guy" we will get success as long as we produce great content and keep the connections we've made alive. I believe, and given how much I like your site, you should too brother. |  |  |  |
