Hi Everyone
I have recently joined the Yakezie challenge and have added the Alexa badge – I feel O have my work cut out though as there is no data available!! So for me any score will be a good score….
Have put on the Yakezie challenge badge and have added a post here about the challenge…
http://youandyourmoney.com.au/…..-challenge
Would love some feedback (& twitter followers!!) to help us improve and get an Alexa ranking!!
Welcome aboard

Got everything signed up and my starting point on Alexa is 1,614,245. Getting down to 200,000 isn't going to be easy but if it was, then everybody would be doing it! I look forward to seeing how things progress over the next 6 months.

I just joined the challenge today. I'm Roger Wohlner and I am a practicing fee-only financial planner and investment advisor. My Alexa rank for my blog The Chicago Financial Planner http://thechicagofinancialplanner.com/ is 157,067.
I'm active on Twitter @rwohlner http://twitter.com/rwohlner
and Google+ https://plus.google.com/u/0/113309940557978076926/posts
I blog about financial planning, investments, and retirement plans. I enjoy sharing the knowledge I've gained by providing clients with advice in these areas over the past 15 years. I look forward to interacting with the other members of the Yakezie network and am always glad to be of help whenever I can. My email is thechicagofinancialplanner@gmail.com.
Besides improving my readership to the site in general, I have the dual goals of using my writing to attract clients to my professional practice and perhaps of developing my blogging and writing into a separate profit center unto itself at some point.
I've placed the badge on my site and will announce my participation in an upcoming post.

Hi! I'm Cristin Frank. I joined the Zakezie Challenge on August 2nd, 2013. It's been a month and a day and I'm at 558,319. I started at 3.4M, so that's an encouraging leap.
I blog at EVEofREDUCTION.com and am the author of "Living Simple, Free & Happy: How to Simplify, Declutter Your Home, and Reduce Stress, Debt & Waste" (F+W Media, March 2013).
I blog about reducing consumption and using what you have (talents + resources). My site's tag line is: Where Reducers are Producers. I'm extremely frugal and creative, which is what brought me to a debt free life.
I am really interested in networking with the Yakezie crowd. Please feel free to reach out to me and I'll do the same!

Hi everyone! I actually introduced myself over at the official members and challengers thread but wanted to say hi here too :)
I've decided to joined the Yakezie challenge and am so excited to grow my blog and interact with you all. My blog is called Savvy With Saving (www.savvywithsaving.com), focusing on my life as a 20-something living on a budget in NYC.
My current Alexa rank is 749,575 (was at 842,322 last week, yay!).
Looking forward to the challenge and hopefully, getting to know you all!
Best,
Connie

Hello all. My name is Ward Carson. I am the managing partner of Cambridge Financial & Insurance Group. We are a b2b firm providing consulting in the areas of corporate retirement plans, employee & executive benefits and wealth management for owners and execs of the companies we work with. My area of expertise is 401K plans. As such, I have started the blog http://www.thehappy401k.com. I joined the challenge 10/1. I have installed the alexa toolbar and will be adding the yakezie badge this week along with announcing my involvement with the challenge on the blog. My blog is so new it has no alexa rank. I will be publishing a minimum of 2x a week.
I am looking to learn from many of you and grow my blog. I am a CFP with 15 years experience. I have seen just about everything in the world of finance. Hopefully I can help you as well.

Valuable insight for corporate retirement plan sponsors & participants
