Blogging goals for 2008

December 20th, 2007 | Comments (1) | Trackbacks (8) |

In the last four months, JakeBouma.com has gained a lot of exposure in the blogosphere. As with any blog, this is partly due to my efforts (blog redesign & contest, frequency of posting, quality of content, etc.), and party due to the readers. In addition, I was honored to be selected as a member blog for The Daily Scribe.

It is my hope that in 2008 JakeBouma.com continues to grow in popularity and readership and that I continue to be faithful to the medium of blogging. Therefore, I am laying out a few goals for 2008 to give me something for which to aim.

Increase my RSS readership to at least 200. Right now it fluctuates between 85 and 95 (it was only 20 at the end of August).

Increase my Technorati authority to above 100, and rank in the top 50,000 (I’m not sure how the two are tied together).

Increase my average daily unique visitors to 250 (right now it averages at around 120).

Increase visibility through social bookmarking sites like Digg and StumbleUpon. (Here is my Digg profile and StumbleUpon profile… let’s be friends).

Design a new logo for the top of the blog.

If you have your own blog, I encourage you to come up with some of your own goals for 2008. If you’re a reader, what would you like see for JakeBouma.com in 2008? Leave a comment and let me know!
