What’s Blogging Doing for You?

by admin on December 3rd, 2007

It's been 21 months since I started blogging for a living. I jumped in with both feet and haven't looked back…though, I probably should have.

I have written 7,500 blog posts at the three blogs I maintain for KnowMoreMedia.

The three blogs I write are TheBizOfKnowledge, at PanAsianBiz and at RisingSunOfNihon.

So what? What's it gotten me?

1. I have had 2.75 million unique visitors.

2. They have viewed some 4.75 million pages.

3. I am blessed with some 1300 RSS readers…mostly here at PAB.

4. I also pay my mortgage blogging.

Don't you wish you could pay your mortgage by writing on your blog in your garage?

75-80% of my visitors come from a search engine started by a company right up the street from me. Google. They are in Mountain View, I am in Sunnyvale. I can get there in less than 10 minutes.

Google sends about 2/3 of all traffic that I get.

That's why Google can set the standards for advertising, rates and such. I don't like it, but that's the way it is.

15-18% of my visitors are referral. I have my blogs interlinked pretty well for the more popular posts. And I enjoy the fact that readers/searchers think enough of what they found on one post to go looking elsewhere in my little network.

The rest are direct traffic.

I have another blog.

It's kind of off-the-wall, like me I suppose.

You can find it at Wispid - the Wisdom we gain from the stupid things we and others do.

If you are interested in what else I think about besides China, Japan, Asia and Education, it's there…and even Wispid is NOT all I think about.

Thank you all very sincerely for reading.

My next milestone - 5,000,000 page views…maybe by Christmas. 

What are you doing with your blog?
