My most favorite find in blogging research is reading about other blogger’s income, traffic reports and monthly updates. Traffic reports share successes, failures, new affiliates and one day I hope to get to report on my own blog’s income.
Starting this blog was exciting and labor intensive. It’s a much different feeling than I had towards my last blogging experience. If you feel like you are spinning your wheels on your blog… just stop! I can’t stress enough how important it can be to cut and run from an old blog and start a fresh one. Don’t fret over the past. Move onto your new found platform for a renewed feeling in freedom of expression.
The cost of liberating myself was minimal compared to what I gained. I really wish that I made the decision sooner. Oh well, late is better than never!
