2012 Blog Goals
- Increase traffic to 100,000 page views per month. This is going to be a tall order.

Hey retireby40,
Hope you don’t mind, but I like how you tracked your Alexa ranking on your page. I borrowed the idea for myself. I hope to break 200,000 like you did. Congrats!

Not at all! I thought it would be helpful to keep track of what I did.
great commentary, I am planning to create a rank page, you inspired me
Very well done!!!! I love how precise you are. You don’t list your current Feedburner subscribers, but if I remember correctly, you’re already about 60% there. With respect to Twitter followers, those come so fast, I think you will be surprised by how quickly you can amass that 5000 goal. I think these are equally ambitious and awesome! Cheers!
I updated the page with Feedburner subscribers. It won’t be easy, but I’m sure we can do it.
All I can say is WOW! Rock on!
Best wishes in your goals! Was curious why it’s so hard to get past PR 5 for blogs?
Good luck with the goals!!! Why not shoot for the sky?
Great goals. Keep up the good work man.
Oooo, great numbers. I just 200K on Alexa and now have a google page rank. good times… but you, daaaaaaang. impressive.
