Hello, WA, Family!

Before I begin with the "update" of the 500 post-challenge, I want to tell you about 2 things.

First, I noticed that I didn't make a "January Update" and secondly I want to share with you some things about "how my life looks at the moment"...

So, let me take some time and thank you for reading this post.

Now, I truly believed that 2020 would start, and everything will be fine. I will work the hardest and make it "easy" for me to finally create a full-time income. In fact, I was so sure that so far, I'd have doubled my posts (I had 121 when I started this challenge, and I'll have at least 240 by now...)

The thing is that from the moment I created the 500 post-challenge, everything was messed...I'm literally all day from bed to couch and repeat because of my ear...and since that wasn't enough Ι'm now trying to recover from a sinus inflammation (I hope I said that correctly...)

With that being said, my life is a mess for the last 2 months...and as a result, I had basically a few days to "take advantage" that I'm feeling better and write the posts and focus on my business.

Unfortunately, the number of days that I "worked" was approximately 4-5 for the whole month...and it wasn't so easy to do that either.

I'm not saying to create excuses or to quit and say it doesn't worth it, nor I'll stop trying to create the 500 posts this year even if I'm 60+days behind my schedule. Let me explain the reasons...

The good with "having an online business" is that it works for you when you already worked for it...it's 24/7, and it never stops no matter what you do. As you'll see later on, I didn't work for almost 2 months, and still, my business grows every day!

Secondly, even if, for example, I make it to 400 posts instead of 500...I'll still have 400 posts to rank for and drive traffic! So, there is no such thing as a "lose situation."

Lastly, I'm determined to succeed and change my life! There is no such thing as a plan B...I love what I've created it, and I want to scale it! Honestly, it doesn't feel like working when I "work" I don't have any plan B, and I don't want to have one. I wake up and sleep with the idea of me growing my business and achieving my goals...I just won't stop until I succeed!

So, again. I'm not saying to create "excuses" of me not working. I'm just sharing a part of my life with you. And yes. As I previously mentioned, the challenge is still on!
Without further due, let's see how my traffic for the month of January... (note that this is only the organic traffic that I show you)


JANUARY


FEBRUARY

As you can see...even though I didn't do much...my traffic keeps growing slowly but steady!

500 POST CHALLENGE

January - 6

February -5

Total posts - 11

Post to complete the challenge - 489

Before I leave you, for now, I want to say that I want to do so many things with my site that I don't know how long it will take before I actually "finish" everything...

I want to create pages to create a pop-up and split test to see to make it convert better (I managed to get 100+ subscriptions) and also create a follow-up sequence and create leads that will convert and take action the way I did!

So in short, for this year, I have to

1)Create 500 posts

2) Create Opt-in, bridge/sales page(s) for another platform that I joined

3) Create a god knows how many e-mails (I actually have a strategy for this...and I'm planning to build 2-3 lists in MMO but for different platforms

4) Create the best pop up that will have a good conversion (I'm open to suggestions for -which plugin to use that will increase conversions-)

5) At the end of the year, I'm planning to grow my list to a huge number (I want to make it to 10k e-mails minimum) and start preparing for a project that I want to do next year that it's going to be the biggest thing I've ever done!

Thank you for reading my post! If you want to share your story, comment, or have any questions, you know what to do ;)


See ya soon!

I appreciate the never give up attitude. Hats off to you for not changing the target.

For sure you will achieve your goals and best wishes.

Mine is... 62/500 posts for two months.

I am really amazed at your organic traffic mine is just 20-25% of your traffic.

I need to work hard...

Thank you, Paul.

It seems like you're doing an amazing job. I'm sure that your traffic will increase very soon!

We all need to work hard indeed.

All the best,

Thanks, please take care of your health!

I will, my friend. That's a promise

GOD Bless!

You're doing what you can do and we can do no more than that. The fact that you are determined to carry on regardless, speaks volumes for your character and resolve.
For you, I would imagine it is a question of 'when' and not 'if'.

Thank you for this. I'm determined and I truly believe that I'll make it happen!

All the best,

Congratulations for all your accomplishments so far and hard work. Always congratulate yourself for what you have done so far!!!

I'll do that! That's a promise. Thank you for your kind words.

All the best,

I am sorry that you have had a rough start Loannis, I wish and pray that the rest of the year goes better for you.

Your determination is an amazing quality, keep that spirit and you will go far and do very well! Thank you for sharing your latest update, I can't wait to see your next one!

Thank you, Maria. I truly appreciate what you've said!

By the way, I know that just because my name is in Greek it's a bit confusing to most of them and they spell my name wrong it's actually Ioannis (with I, not L) hehehe

Again thank you!

All the best,
