Users & Pageviews
I am going to be honest and say I am not happy with my number of users and pageviews. I am honestly ready to quit promoting this blog on Pinterest. I am really considering focusing more energy on blog#1 and trying to find better success there.
Pinterest Impressions
April and may were looking so good for Pinterest. I was finally seeing some growth. June however, was a flop. All my numbers went down. This is so unfortunate!
Email Subscribers
None gained. Still at one email subscriber.
Income
$0
Expenses
$0
Goals
June/July
Because I had a baby in June my goals were basically just to keep up on Pinterest and even try to stay ahead. I have content written for this blog for most of July and August already. I just need to keep up with income and traffic reports as I am able.
With a new baby at home, my goal is just to maintain what I am doing. I can’t handle taking on too much more at this time.
Strategy/Changes
Seriously considering dropping off with Pinterest for a while. I have let myself go down to publishing only two pins daily starting July 1st.
This is my second blog and will take a back seat to my first blog if it gets to the point where I am struggling to run them both.
Resources
Grammarly
Feelings
I feel a bit overwhelmed with the addition of a new baby to our family. I don’t know where I am going to find time to keep up on my blogs. Once they are sleep trained a bit I will likely get up early in the mornings to work. However, in this newborn stage, I need as much sleep as I can get.
Conclusion
This blog honestly isn’t going anywhere. I am consistent in both of my blogs. Everyone says you just have to give it time and be consistent. Most people quit blogging after 3 months. If you don’t quit you will see success.
I am starting to doubt this. I am 12 months in with this blog and 18 months in with my first blog and I am not seeing success.
I love what I am doing with blogging and want to see it become my career. At this point though it doesn’t look like it will be possible. I have invested hundreds of hours with no return.
