31 Days to Build a Better Blog: Week 2

This is the second week I’ve been doing the 31 days to build a better blog. I’ve completed steps 3 through 7 this week and have seen an explosion of traffic on my blog. (See week one.)

Comparing the week (Saturday to Friday) of June 7th to the week of June 14th I’ve seen my visits jump from 34 to 198. That’s almost a 6 times increase in traffic. Here’s the graph from google analytics comparing the two weeks.

I thought I’d see a slight uptick in traffic from following these steps, but I had over 6 times the page views and just under 6 times the visits. My new visitors was down slightly, but what that really means is that I’m getting more and more return readers to my blog.

The information in this booklet is pure gold! I’m going to get my Dad blogging for his dental practice and we’re going to apply these same principles to get his traffic and readship up just as quickly. To say I’m pleased would be a gross understatement. I’m really excited.

Look out for my report next Monday.
