Hey there-
I first found the Yakezie challenge on April 1st- I was still VERY new to blogging. Now I've been at it for almost 2 months- and I've come from "No Data Found" to a little over 2 million. (YAY!) I have 4 more months to get under 200,000. There is still a lot more work to do- but so far I'm having a blast. I use to work in finance and hated staring at excel spreadsheets all day. Now that I work in advertising, writing about finance doesn't seem like work- it is just fun! Any tips are greatly appreciated- and if anyone wants a guest blogger for their site- I am happy to write :-)
Thanks for the support!

Hi everyone,
I'm exciting to say that I'm joining the Yakezie Challenge. I started my blog, House of Tre eight months ago, not sure what my topic was . It evolved into a blog about personal finance, which makes sense since I work in finance and I'm obsessed with our family budget. My current Alexa ranking is 2,188,341.
I'm really excited about getting to know all of you!

Hi Tre, welcome to the challenge! I just started the challenge myself 10 days ago (but my blog last September) and my Alexa ranking has been on a steady downward creep. I just checked out your page and followed you on twitter. Good looking site!

Quick Question! I am 6,663 from dropping below 200K! I started the challenge January 20th and started at 1,950,443.
When I drop below 200K do I just come back here and state that I am below 200K and then just keep blogging or is there more to it? :D Thanks!

Hi everyone
I joined the challenge a little over a week ago but just found this thread now.
When I started blogging Mar 12 I was on a wordpress.com free site (Alexa 11,578,900) I bought my domain name through WordPress.com on Apr 6 at which point it had come down to 965,135.
Today debtdebs.com is 234,963 as of May 30.
Still lots to learn!
Looking forward to continued interaction with fellow bloggers.
Cheers!

Welcome Tre! I share a passion for budgeting as well, so I can relate. Best of luck on the challenge!

Great question Bre! I wondered that myself when I was doing the challenge.
Certainly come here and let everyone know you've passed the mark. We want to celebrate with you! Just doing that doesn't automatically grant you membership though.
Depending on when you joined the challenge, you will receive an invitation (application) to fill out for official membership. If I remember correctly, I had several weeks to complete mine.
Once that has been submitted, it goes up for review by Sam and a few other Yakezie members on his team. He will send you official word about being accepted. If you get accepted then you write your member post and that's it…your in!
Once below 200k I would just keep blogging and connecting. Get the Alexa rank as low as possible and build your case for inclusion in the network. Hope that helps.

Brain I had posted in a separate feed, I am officially below the 200k mark. Is there anyone I should contact about finishing the challenge or do I just wait to be contact?

Oh wow! My Alexa rank dropped to 199,338 today.
Started my blog: March 12
Started tracking Alexa: April 6 965,135
Reached Yakezie Challenge: June 4 199,338
I'm pretty pleased with the progress, but I put a lot of work into it so realistically, this level of effort is not sustainable, I don't think.
The challenge will be get it down to the 100K mark now. Anyways, just wanted to make a public record of this milestone. heeee
Still lots to learn and I really appreciate the help and support of fellow bloggers I've met so far since starting my public debt journey. Looking forward to meeting and interacting with more.
Cheers!
