Three months down and many more to go! In an effort to give you a peek behind the curtain, we are back to share with you something very near and dear to our hearts: the State of the Blog Report.
Just as a reminder from the first report: we intentionally make known our status reports as a way to share with you and the blogging community what we have found that works and what doesn’t. It is a way for us to see what our baseline is and how we need to improve.
We do these posts because it is helpful for us to see where we have come from, where we need to grow and work on, and hopefully help others who are starting their own blogs. We do not claim to know it all, we simply and humbly share with you our results saying this is where we have come from , this is what we are building on, and where we hope to keep growing.
The thing about blogging is that it is a LONG journey! Very rarely is a blog successful overnight or in a week, or even a month. Being a successful blogger takes time. For some, they are blessed with quick success. But for many, it is a slow and steady build up that for some ends up fizzling out as the time and factors of life get to be too much to produce the content needed.
We all see and read about the success stories. In our humanity, we don’t always think about the time, effort, and energy it took to get to that point. At least I don’t, I should say. But for many, the numbers came after a long time. It came as the content got better, the website was improved, the marketing continued, and really there was more content and the fan base continued to grow. This is part of the reason for doing these post in our infancy so that you can see how we grow (and if that happens).
