Hey! I wanted to check in with You, guys! Today is the first month of my website existence. I want to really say thanks to my loyal readers – for now I got 132 RSS readers – I really appreciate that You spend Your time reading and checking out my articles! Without You I am nothing!
Why I started to blog? Main reason was – I read many articles and sites, where other people say that blogging is the best thing happened to them. I thought why shouldn’t I give it a try! And yes, I totally agree – I started blogging and that’s one of the best things happened to me, even if it’s only the first month :)
And I must apologize to You about very slow web page bandwidth speed – I will switch hosting as fast as I can, so I only wish You’ll wait while I get rid of my problems. And yes, I didn’t write so often for few days because I got one big and serious project to do, and doing it, I understood I need to create slightly different and more user friendly webdesign – I am pretty sure I will do all these things in this month.
So…yes, this month was really good – I created 27 new articles, got ~45 000 unique visits and much more.. I think stats for the first month are pretty good! So I want to ask You too, which kind of articles You want to see more on this website? – tutorials, different list articles, I don’t know – now I just created articles, because I got really big interest in them by myself and I wanted to share information with You. Maybe there are something You thought to research but You haven’t got time? Share with me, and if the idea would be interesting – I’ll do research with the joy! :) I will do screenshots of my website too each month, so everybody can see how web is changing! Hopefully after a year it will be interesting to look through!


Okay, that’s all I wanted to say for now – however I will appreciate feedback – say what’s You got to say – be active and take action! Do this in everything You got interest in! See You on the other side!!

Those stats are for first month and look how amazing those stats are but its almost a year for your blog and looking at the stats again shows how popular has become.

Congratulations.
Regarding the articles I am pretty happy with what you are sharing. But it would be great if you share some of your own work/portfolio.
On a blog we expect something from the writer, you are sharing good stuff but it is others work, will be good if you share some of your own work :)
Good luck.

Congratulations! Reader feedback is a good way to encourage a loyal readership – a nice touch.
I’d suggest something on open source ecommerce packages like Magento?
