What's up fellow IM warriors. It's time for some accountability action, what better way than a journey thread?

Here is my journey to $1000/week blog. This won't be easy and will take some time. I will provide weekly/bi-weekly updates on growth and strategies.

What I'm starting with
  • Wordpress blog - designed, analytic's ready, Ad Sense running (would love to find another network that accepts blogs with no traffic, yet)
  • Social media accounts (aged a few months)
  • FB - 1,000+ likes/followers - real not-paid
Content
  • 3-5 posts a day to start out
  • social media driven posts to build following
Week Goals
  • New posts everyday
  • Organic traffic through social media posts - Goal 100 new visitors
It seems videos are driving traffic these days. The following week I will be focusing on pre-production of original video content for the blog.

Good luck in your journey. This is inspiring me to do something similar with an idea that I have since a few months ago.

Keep us updated!
 
Update #1

What's up fellow IM warriors. Checking in for my first update.

Numbers are trailing the set goal of 100 new visitors. Checking in with 30. Why am I so far off?

I analyzed social media impressions and have not been hitting the numbers needed to have a chance at converting clicks. Posting an image/video gets 100x more impressions on FB than a link ever does.

These new visits are based off only 3 new blog posts and very little social push. Not much of an update but I promise to check in with BHW along the journey.

SO YOU ARE 70 SHORT....

Not a worry. Major work is getting done in the video department. By creating templates now, much time will be saved when traffic starts moving. Also nailing the brand image before a video push IMO is worth the effort. I've made a video intro sting, custom lowers and info-graphic style cuts needed in preparation. Aside from effects I've put together the video structures down to the second.

Goal is to get YouTube up next week. Until then.....
