I'm not giving up!
The last month and a bit has been a real tester for me. Even though I have kept putting up new posts regularly and made continual improvements to my site I have not seen the results that I was expecting. I have been doing this for 10 months now.
A few months ago I was seeing an increase in visitors. So I went back and fixed up old posts, reworded them and extended the word count. I have optimised my pictures, gone with a pro version for my theme and deleted several plugins to make my site load quicker.
Even though I have done these 'improvements' it has made no difference whatsoever.
I will keep on plugging away though at my site. I am determined to make this happen because:
a) I want this to happen. I want to make this my life, and
b) I believe that I have created something that I can build on. I know that I am on the right path.
I just wanted to put this out there and get this off my mind. Thank you

When Thomas Edison was asked how he felt about failing at inventing the light bulb 1000 times, his reply was," I didn't fail 1000 times. The light bulb was just an invention that took 1000 steps"
Don't give up! I have the same issue as you do. I did everything like you did.
It will just make us stronger, I know that!
Please keep in touch.
All the best.
Thank you. I have built a site that I am proud of. There is still plenty of things that I want to cover with my niche. I know that I have a strong foundation. It will just take longer than expected.
Just give it some time. The success must come!
I do have a strong foundation too, and I know that all we need is patience!
What are you doing to make money here - if you are not maybe ask the rest for some help or suggestions - I just found a couple of people who are working on something to help me - there should be others out there who would help you...
Several different affiliate programs and have just put google adsense on a few pages. Getting results with that.
It did climb to 100+ but has fallen down below that now. I see it's because of one particular post that ranked highly. It was an informational post so I went back to it and tried to monetize it. The post however has lost its ranking a few days ago and so my visitors has fallen again.
You have a great attitude and am sure success is only round the corner for you!
I'm kind of in the same boat, im in my 6th month and starting to get more views but I need to improve my conversions!
How frequently do you post Btw?
All the best to you!

Thanks Josh. Much appreciated. It can get frustrating, especially when you think you are doing improvements but it's not getting the results you thought you would get.

It can be quite heartbreaking. I have had a few times like this in the past but I thought that I was getting somewhere. I will keep at it though.
