I feel like I am losing focus and I haven't really made the connections with new people like I was hoping when I first started the blog. I made a lot of mistakes with the blog, and have focused on some of the wrong things. Almost 200 posts later and I am barely reaching 20 visits a day. 

Good luck Levi! By visiting other bloggers' sites, commenting and sharing their posts on social media or weekly roundups, you should see the favor gets returned and improves your stats quickly.

I subscribed to your RSS, looking forward to following your progress!

I also just joined today!. I'm pretty excited to post my challenge on my blog tomorrow and meet more bloggers in the extended PF community. My current rank is 3,290,770. I think it will be challenging to get this below 200k, but I look forward to blogging my way there!

Here I am…finally! I've been thinking about joining the challenge for…well, way too long! 2013 is the year of action, so as of today (1/15/13) I am joining the challenge. My current Alexa ranking is 1,365,737 – and that is down from approx. 6 million not too long ago! My goal is to be under 200k by 7/15/13.

You can read my challenge post here - http://www.aspiringblogger.com/goals-for-2013/ – I look forward to networking with other challengers and members, and I definitely can't wait to write my new member post! I've been a lurker for a long time, so I'm really looking forward to committing and getting things moving in the right direction. Good luck to all of the other new challengers – hopefully we can help each other be successful!

Thanks everyone,

AB

If you are currently a Yakezie Challenger, here's a place where you can get to know other new Challengers by stating when you joined the Challenge, your current Alexa ranking, a little bit about yourself, and your goals!

Best,

Sam

Hi Sam,

I just launched a peer to peer lending site at http://www.lendingmemo.com that hopes to educate the public about it. I also just entered the Yakenzie Challenge. Current Alexa rank is 3,778,590. Hope to break 200K in 6 months!

Thanks for all you do,

Simon

Hey guys I'm rejoining the challenge again.  I decided to get in again because last year when decided to do the challenge, I did not have a strategy to stay committed.

 

So i added the alexa tool bar again to my site, my current stats are at 2million+, hey it's better than last year.  When I started last year alexa could not rank my site because it was too new. 

Looking forward to connecting with new bloggers and some of the old ones. Laugh

Good luck Sarah!  I hit 4000 uniques and 10,000 page views this month and my Alexa rank actually got worse, so I'm not able to provide you a bit of advice on meeting the conditions of this challenge.  That said, I've added a few page views to your nicely designed site and look forward to visiting again!

I'm incredibly excited to annouce that I'm joining the challenge today!  My Alexa score is currently at 2,086,543 and I'm pumped to get it below 200,000.  My blog is about my quest to live frugally, spend wisely, and invest rationally.  I'm a twenty-something engineer who's trying to figure it all out and retire early.  

I'd welcome any and all advice about blogging, relevance, and post ideas (oh yea, and living frugally!).  I'm just starting to figure it all out, but I'm having a great time along the way.  I look forward to learning from such a great community.

Welcome Sarah! Smile 368k isn't bad at all for starting the challenge, you'll get under 200k in a flash.

Hey everyone. Just started the challenge today. Ranked at 8,349,158 on the Alexia rating, can only go down from here!

My blog is called Cheap Students which is geared towards Canadian university/college students who want to save the most of their money. I've been writing on and off for the last year and finally decided to start up on this (it's been a pretty crazy 12 months of school and co-op terms) but it's time to get start.

If at any point I choose to change my URL (I hope to register a domain name soon) will that affect me at all when it comes to the challenge itself? Also considering switching over to Wordpress, but still up in the air. Would love some pointers.

 

Thanks!

Lauren Bernardo
