February Recap

How on earth is the month of February over?!  Before I go onto my blogs, I have some exciting news to share (if you follow me on Facebook, then you’ve seen it.  If you don’t follow me on Facebook, you should ;)).I am a new contributor for the Detroit Moms Blog!!  I am super excited. 🙂 I’ll be sure to post more about it later.

So, how are my goals going so far?  Let’s check it out!

Blog:
~ Blog two-three times a week
~ Create a button for my blog (for reals this time)
~ Have two-three posts a month be Pintrest worthy pins
~ Grow my Instagram followers to 75 (I currently have 60).
~ Grow my Twitter follower to 145 (I currently have 132)
~ Interact more with other on Instagram/ Twitter
~ Create a PR tab
~ Reach out to companies to see if they work with bloggers
~ Use google analytics to help improve my blog
~ Post a recipe once a month
~ Post  a learning activity twice a month

~ Increase traffic to 60-70 page views per post by really participating in link ups.

I’ve crossed some stuff off my list.  Trying to get my new blog up and running has put a little damper on some of the listed.  I still did get some stuff done though.I posted four recipes this month.

Red Velvet Cookies

Rolled Red Velvet Cookies.  Great for decorating with royal icing or cream cheese frosting.

Apple Pie Margarita

Surf and Turf

Nutella Stuffed Banana Muffins

Instagram:  I went from 60 to 84!
Twitter: Didn’t do so great there, increased to 139

I also participated a in a few more link ups, which did help drive traffic to my blog, but not quite 60 a day.

Finally I reached out to a few companies, but my blog isn’t quite big enough to work with yet.  It’ll come (I hope). 🙂

Personal:
~Start working out again
~ Use MyFitness Pal again
~Attempt to keep house uncluttered
~Start doing more “school” activities with Annabelle
Umm…. #fail.  I really have been trying to keep things uncluttered.  Everytime we clean, I turn around and it’s a disaster again.  I am planning on coming up with a printable to help me stay on top of things.
Etsy:
~Revamp look
~Add new selections 
~Possible add pre-made items

I added a few bodysuits that are ready to be purchased.  I also added some legwarmers for St. Patrick’s Day, that are made to order.

 

 

Overall not to shabby.
