Hello all! My name is Michelle of fitnpoor.com and I'm officially joining the challenge!
I started my blog about a month ago after my husband lost his job (two days after we got back from our honeymoon)! I started as wanting to use it as just a way to track our progress in paying off debts and sticking with our budget, but as I've slowly been introduced to the finance community, I've wanted to grow my blog more and more.
So, today my Alexa rank is 6,621,617. I'm positive that I can grow my site to the 200,000 rank!
Here's my official announcement post: http://wp.me/p453KO-3S
Any feedback or collaboration ideas is much appreciated!

Hi Michelle, glad you're taking on the challenge. That's a good (if painful!) story behind your blog's start. Has your husband found employment again?
Best wishes, and enjoy the ride to 200k!

Thanks for the welcome! Unfortunately, not yet. He's enjoying his time "off" by working on his novel for National Novel Writing Month. But he's had several interviews and a couple of position offers. Hopefully something will come through soon for us!

Hi! My name is Bobby and I am co-founder of Making Money Fast and Slow.
I founded this blog earlier this year with a good friend of mine from college in order to provide young adults with an education on personal finance and the financial markets.
Right now our Alexa rank is 317,791. We're hoping to cross the 200K threshold by the end of the year.

Hello, all!
I'm here to join the next cycle come Winter 2014! I really need the right push to just get my writing going, and the support of the right community. I was a bit worried about the Yakezie challenge since there weren't any updates to the page in recent months.
Anyway, I'm still working on relaunching my site, recessionFRESH. My blog focuses on better financial choices young adults can make, the labor market, some microeconomics, and how I'm living post-recession.
Hoping to read all your work in the coming months, as well!

Hello everyone!
I’m new to the challenge and wish I found this sooner. I’m Jonathan, by the way. I founded True Financial Planning in 2009, but only got serious about blogging about a year ago. Right now my Alexa rank is 6,987,291.
As an insider, I witnessed the unethical behavior of a large and reputable financial advisor firm during the financial crisis. Disgusted, I terminated my employment and went on to earn my MBA in Financial Planning. I founded True Financial Planning as an alternative to the large advisory firms and help bring transparency to the financial planning industry.
I look forward to working alongside all of you to help people with their financial challenges.
Thanks!

Hello everyone. My name is Syed and I run Thebrokeprofessional.com, a personal finance blog for students, working professionals and everyone in between. I started the blog at end the of August 2013 and would love to grow and increase my reach to engage the most people possible.
Discovered the challenge a few days ago and am pumped to get going! My current global Alexa ranking is 2,278,378. Looking forward to get to 200,000 in 6 months. This seems like a great group with so many helpful people so I have no doubt about reaching 200,000 with some hard work.

Hi everyone. My name is Alicia and I blog over at Financial Diffraction. I am a late-twenties recent grad who is working at paying off 30k in consumer debt (ugh, I know – what was I thinking!). My posts are about personal finance, admitting my mistakes, tracking y progress, starting my career in a new location, and pretty much anything else that might interest me at the moment.
My current Alexa rating is 1,677,948, and I am aiming for under 200,000. Seems totally reasonable ;)
If you are interested in reading my blog, or getting in touch, here is my info.
