A Progress Report On My Site
I read so much good stuff here at WA regularly that I thought I should chime in
and share my progress with my site.
I have had my site running for 7 months now and I feel like I am starting to
level off and get in a groove.
My traffic is regular and pretty constant and visitors are viewing my content
and seeming to like it. We all know that it feels good if people like your
content, right?
I am being quite constant with my schedule for posting new stuff and as I said
it seems to be getting into a groove.
The bummer is that I am not making any sales but visitors are clicking my links
and I think I am gaining trust with my audience so that feels positive.
I remodeled my site recently and spiffed it up so it looks better and has a
professional look now. And I think I have a way to present older content so I
can get some use out of it, afterall it was written well.
Visitors don't view my blog too much and I wish I knew a way to get more
traffic to my blog. If anyone has any ideas I am certainly open to hearing
them.
I want to give a shout out to the WA community for all the fresh ideas and
teachings everyone is offering and it really is good to be part of such a great
community. I hope everyone does well and that includes making money as well as
increasing traffic and user engagement.
A lot of people here post so much interesting stuff that there doesn't ever
seem to be any reason to want to leave. With so much available then it just
comes to growing and growing. We really need to find peace to digest so much
powerful stuff.
Anyway that's my progress report and as always thank you for taking the time to
read this and all are invited to comment below and join the conversation.
Cheers and happy sailing!

To keep people on your blog longer and to keep them even more engaged there is a free Wordpress plugin called "Related Posts" which works well. It adds a thumbnail and link to some of your other posts at the bottom of each post you write.
Hope that is useful
That sounds great and I will check it out. I use Recent Posts but didn't know Related ones. People go to my homepage but don't necessarily visit the blog. My blog is my baby lol so I want people to go there. Thanks for the info,

Tom, its great you are seeing consistent numbers in terms of traffic. As for you statement
"...I am not making any sales but visitors are clicking my links
and I think I am gaining trust with my audience so that feels positive.
Keep writing better and more compelling content that provides a needed service for your readers, and create a funnel. And you will soon see sales.
Best to You,
Kaju
Thanks for the input and I will surely keep this in mind. Good luck to you too,
