Looks nice, and has the simpleness aspect that I really like.

That is, until today when PFBlogs took over the top spot in my referrer logs.

If you have a personal finance blog(and I think they have a real estate category too), signing up with pfblogs.org is a must. The best part is that it’s free and actually brings a targeted audience to your site.

I checked my feedburner stats this morning and it says there are 10 subscribers. I know it ain’t that many, compared to lots of other debt blogs, but I’m still really happy to see that.

While a lot of the steps listed I have already done, there were plenty more idea’s, especially in the promotion category where I was lacking. And frankly, that’s where I need the most work(since according to feedburner stats I only have 3 subscribers). So far, the biggest payoff has been joining up with PFblogs.org. The majority of recent clicks have come from them. So at this point with all I’ve done, it will be interesting to see if the numbers increase over the next few weeks.

I’ve should have mentioned this sooner as I’ve had the Twitter account since the day I started this blog, but just never really thought about it until No Credit Needed got himself an account there and let the world know. I’ve never been good at marketing! If you want to follow me on Twitter my account name is MyDRBlog.

I’m on Pownce too, but never post there. If you’d like a pownce invite, just contact me.

I’m trying them both on a bit to see which I like better.

Right now I’m leaning to the greener one.

This weekend I plan to really look for a nice 3 column theme thats fits my ’simple’ personality.

Well, I’m finally getting around to that. I’ve started adding relevant information to the About Page. While it’s far from complete, at least it’s something.
