Goals for March

To reference one last time to February, I will talk about goals.

Last month I had set myself some goals for myself and this blog in general. I wanted to increase this blog's readership which has gone up from 30 to an average of 90 - 110 for the past week. I know Alexa is a semi-worthless indication of traffic but my rank there has steadily increased and my PR is supposed to be a 6 when the next PR update takes place in March/April { it is 4 presently }.

March Goals -

• Increase RSS subscribers by at least 100 - 200 more at the very minimum.
• Break into the Top 100,000 in Alexa's ranking system. { preferably top 70,000 }
• Write a minimum of 3 - 4 posts a day.
• Provide a valuable resource to my readers.

Why setting goals for yourself is important -

When you do set a goal for yourself it becomes a sticky in your mind. Something that will push you to get to that point and keep nagging till you do it. This blog has grown from nothing in 3 months to being quickly indexed by Google in a day most of my traffic now comes from search engines. I attribute that to the content I write. Balancing content created for humans and the search engines is a delicate process.

Rather than just yeah I'm thinking of doing it, or I'll get to it someday write it down and make it a point to reference yourself everyday and see how much you have accomplished so far.

Do you have any goals for yourself? It doesn't need to be connected to the web. I have many life goals as well some which I will share some I may not, let us know yours by commenting.
