December was a down month but January is stronger. I expect the site to reach its maximum strength in the next 3 months. My goal for each site is 30,000 paveviews a month. Unfortunately, I didn't choose my topics well and I doubt I will ever reach that goal unless I write 30 new topics based on better research. I will continue to work on my Dating site first.

2nd Site: Urbane Dating

Videos are not attracting views and I am not promoting them. It was an experiment that didn't really fit my personality and presentation. Pageviews, impressions and clicks are starting a healthy growth curve. We will see if strong growth continues. I was actually discouraged during the last 2 months and took a break from writing. Also, Google Analytics lost my Dating site ID number and didn't accurately record my stats in December (2 weeks) and January (1 week) until I got around to fixing it. But since the site I growing, I will get back to writing this month.
