I'm a new blog - What should I expect? | Yakezie Reader Insights | Yakezie Forums

Hey everyone!

I can't say how much I've been impressed with the Yakezie network!!  Everyone's comments have been so encouraging and people genuinely want to help others – it's great!

 

I just started my blog Faith and Finance – http://www.FaithandFinance.org – last month (first post was 9/14) and wondered if you guys had any tips about what to expect traffic wise or any advice on the site itself.

 

My Analytics data started on Oct 2 – and since then I've had 281 visits and 735 pageviews.  (That averages to 11 visits and 30 pg views per day)  Since I'm new to the blog world….I'm not even sure how this compares to other financial blogs.  I just want to make sure I'm on track to building a good readership – which is at 17 subscribers now.

 

I've really been enjoying myself and couldn't have started at a better time – thanks to the Yakezie network. 

 

Any tips (ANY) or critiques are welcomed!!

Thank you!!

Tim
