Milestones and Good Times

Posted on 12. Oct, 2009 by David Y in General

It has been a rough ride the past 7 months here at HowsYourBlog. During this time of hard work and swear I’ve turned this site from being a autoblog(blame the previous owner) to a resource for designers, writers and freelancers alike and the best part is things are just getting started.

HowsYourBlog is now averaging the following stats:

15,880 uniques a month and growing

240 – 300 uniques a day and growing

41,119 pageviews a month and growing

22.17 % Bounce Rate

Alexa Rank of 483,111 and dropping

So to thank all my readers and subscribers there will be a whole host of new features as well as a new design for the site.. including but not limited to…

User link feed – where users can submit relevant links to articles and resources(great way to gain extra traffic)

Job Board – Finding a job these days is quite the task in itself so to make things even a tad bit easier somewhere in the future I’ll be adding this in.

New site design – Feature a fresh and easy way to find what your looking for.

Subscribe by email – Should have been a feature from the start but it’s here now

Contests. – Details coming soon.

Freebies – From wallpapers to icon packs and other good stuff in between.

Also here is a teaser of the new site design.

Featuring a featured post slider. Subscribe to comments, Live comment preview and many other nifty things I’m still testing out.

I’m also looking for guest writers.. so if your passion is in design, writing or development or even humor that relates to any of these.. head on over to the contact form and send me a quick message.

Would love to hear your thoughts as well as suggestions to what you would like to see here on the site.. feel free to let me know via the comments below.
