I notice that when I post elsewhere, as I do occasionally, more visitors visit my blog. Thanks for the great tips!

It's funny that the things that take your blog to the next level are all basic things (grammar, friendship, consistency, etc.). Makes me realize I need to focus on that and not get caught up in other bloggy stuff! :) a Great post!

I'll take your advice and bump up the SEO knowledge. I've stayed away from that because it didn't seem all that interesting to me. And laundry is :) So it is much easier to focus on. Yes, I just launched my new website this week! I'm thrilled with it! Thanks again for getting back with me! Can't wait to meet all of the fab ladies at Savvy! -Lauren Toni – Thanks so much for taking the time to answer me personally.

I wish I could remember my stats for my first few months, I am sure I didn't have many readers at all! Since you have a very specialized blog (laundry) think learning SEO, so that would be a big benefit to your site. You are probably going to get more visitors from searches than anywhere else. I see you are already on thesis and wordpress, so you started well! I look forward to meeting you at Savvy! And remember growing a blog takes time. :) Toni For 6 1/2 weeks I think you are doing well.

I'm working hard to do a great job on all of your bullets. The only ones I haven't worked on are learning a little SEO and partnering with another blogger. Yet I still have a pretty low average number of visits per day. Any suggestions? I'd love to hear any and all advice and (nice) criticism! I should mention that I've only been blogging for 6 1/2 weeks. Think my expectations are too high? Thanks for any help you can offer! :) -Lauren So what do you do if you’re faithfully implementing all of your action steps and still not gaining much of a readership?

I have to admit I was on a roll, last year, with blogging and then when to Europe. I did get a little discouraged with things that were happening within some blogs. I also go sidetracked with school starting etc and then just did not blog. I really want this to succeed. How to decide your niche for your blog? I also need to get my family on board, that this would be a job if I got it going. I might not make much, but I would feel fulfilled. Let my creativity out, while being a stay at home mom.
