Dragonblogger’s Goals and Blog Stats for the Month of September 2008
Now that it is the last day of the month I will repost my goals I had set for Sep ’08 and list my stats, earned money among other information.
- First here were my goals for September:
<1500 average weekly IZEARank
<1.5 million Alexa Rank average
50+ average visits per day
20 RSS Subscribers
10 backlinks from google
I have exceeded every one of these goals except the RSS Subscribers. At one point I was up to 12 subscribers, but that has dropped down to 7. I lost some subscribers due to me posting some paid content, and I talked about that in a previous post. It is hard to find a balance between providing good content and making some money from your blog as well. I try to keep 10% paid content, with 90% quality original content.
- Here are my specifics for the month:
My Weekly IzeaRank is 708
Here is snapshot

Alexa rank average is 626,765 this month:
Here is snapshot:

My average # of visits is 101 per day according to Google Analytics and 89 per day according to SocialSpark.
Here is snapshot of Google Analytics:

Backlinks I am referring to are only from blogsearch link: searches.
I have 10 links to http://dragonblogger.com
I have 26 links to http://www.dragonblogger.com
For a total of 36 backlinks for the month.
Link Popularity Check shows that i have 5,750 links on the web total, which is around 2,000 more than at the beginning of the month, I am closing fast on DamienRiley.com but still a long way away from postcardsfromthefunnyfarm’s 14,902 links.
I didn’t project or set a goal for income for my September as it was my blogs first month, but I did make some money from this blog and will report it below:
Google Adsense = $7.83
Social Spark = $6.00
PayU2Blog = $62.50
For a total of $76.33 for my blogs first month of operation.
So that is my blog’s performance for the month of September 2008, I am going to set some new goals for October and post them tomorrow.
