Save-Invest-Grow said:

Hello Everyone,

I'm Michael and my site called Save-Invest-Grow.  I've recently found Yakezie and am excited to enter the challenge and hopefully connect with a lot of you!  According to Alexa, my current rank is 1,296,884.

My site talks about saving money, investing it wisely, and achieving financial and personal growth.  My background is in real estate, but I have a strong interest in all things personal finance.

I have some past experience writing on a financial blog, but recently started this new site.  I'm really impressed with how many great finance sites are out there.

I look forward to getting to know many of you!

Broke Millennial said:

Hi Everyone – I'm Erin from the blog Broke Millennial. I'm ashamed it's taken me this long to sign up for the Yakezie Challenge! As of January 19 I have an Alexa rank of 109,954. My goal is to be under 50,000 in six months. My site has a large emphasis on financial literacy and touches on the trials and tribulations of living in NYC when your income is laughably low. 

 

I'm looking forward to getting to know those PFers I haven't interacted with yet and finding more great material to read. The quickest way to connect with me is on Twitter @BrokeMillennial.

NomadWallet said:

Hi everyone, I'm Deia from Nomad Wallet. I write about travel and money, exploring the ways regular people afford travel. Travel is a big passion for me and I was frustrated by how little travelers reveal about how they finance their trips. Some recurring topics: alternative accommodation & transport options, saving money, location-independent work and working abroad. I also do a lot of interviews with travelers about how they handle their finances.

 

My blog is four months old, almost to the day. My Alexa rank is 513,651 and I'll get it under 200,000 by the end of July. My unique visitors figure has been growing by 80% every month and I'm hoping for this trend to continue.

 

I guess my blog is a little different in that it's not all about personal finance; I hope that's okay. You seem like a friendly lot and I can't wait to get to know you! :)

 

I'm announcing my joining the Yakezie challenge at the end of this post (set to publish tomorrow): http://www.nomadwallet.com/why…..ns-studies

Hi everyone

    I'm back, I took a couple months of blogging and got off track with the Yakezie Challenge but I'm here and ready for a new be-yoo-tiful beginning!

    Current Alexa 630,000. I'll update as I trundle along. Thanks everyone!

Hi everyone!

    I have been looking around the Yakezie site and I'm really impressed with what I've seen here – there seems to be a strong sense of community even though people come from all walks of life and an interest in helping out where and when they can!

    I am joining the Yakezie challenge as a new blogger of two months and at a very very humble Alexa ranking of 2,618,724. At this point, I'm keen to learn and be part of an exciting community of like-minded bloggers who can appreciate the ups and downs of this kind of work/hobby. I'm not sure I'll do under Alexa score 200,000 in six months but I'm going to enjoy the ride anyways!

Hi Everyone!
I started the investing and personal finance blog Roadmap2Retire.com last summer and have made quite a bit of progress so far. The Yakezie challenge has always intrigued me, and I think its the right time to start it. I post regularly – about 2-3 times per week.

My current Alexa rank is 565,407 and hope to bring that up over the next few months.

Looking forward to getting to know everyone here and share the joy.

regards
sabeel

Welcome everyone! I am also in the challenge, about halfway through my six months. It's been great having the support of the Yakezies as I go along. The Alexa rank drops faster than you think, especially if you are working hard, posting good articles, and publishing regularly. Good luck everyone!
