Like most bloggers (I hope), I am always trying to gauge my success blogging. I wonder about comments, and stats...and basically drive myself nuts. Sometimes I feel good about things, and other times, I start wondering if I am wasting my time. When the latter feeling strikes, I remind myself that I know I do have a few regular readers, so I keep writing for them (and myself) whatever else happens.
Last night I was listening to a podcast, they were talking about their blog and how at first they had a couple hundred hits a month, and how they compared themselves so someone else who gets about 1500 hits a month. (The first blog now gets over 2,000...) You know what this means....one more way to judge myself and how I am doing, LOL!
I don't get many comments, but I do get about 900 hits a month, I figure as long as that number grows gradually then I will call that success.
How about you? How do you decide on your "success", stats, comments....do you just write for you and not worry about it? Want to share how many hits you get a month so the rest of us can beat ourselves up over it? or pat ourselves on the back...LOL
