Hi Fellow Bloggers!
I have a 4 month old blog - Retirement Blog. It's not my first blog, I've created a few others, but this is my most intense blog. I've created blogs to educate, inform, and advertise.

The Retirement Blog, after only four months and starting from scratch, has a google page rank 3 and receives over 3,000 unique visits per month. Great! Money earned so far $0.

My advice to fellow bloggers, whether you're in it for the money or the ego, is to think of a blog as a baby.

0-6 Months - Excitement, exhaustion, worry. If it's your first blog, then you're learning to be a blogger, you're going to make mistakes.

7-12 Months - Your blog is learning to crawl. It's personality is starting to take shape, you're gaining confidence as a blogger, and your blog is discovering the world.

12-18 Months - Blog is walking. You're starting to develop a routine, you're worrying less, and getting sleep.

18 - 24 Months - Your blog is finally running!

In the meantime you have to keep FEEDING your blog. Feeding your blog with posts. If you stop FEEDING your blog, just like a baby, it will die. Will your blog grow up to be a superstar athlete, musician, politician, celebrity, who knows? But if you stop FEEDING your blog you will never find out.

What's so special about the Retirement Blog? It will save you hundreds of thousands of dollars, allow you to retire early, and have a safe and secure retirement - and help save the planet! Even though it's doing well, it's still young, not even crawling yet. In the meantime I'll keep FEEDING my blog.

Soon to Blog - check out the post on my blog about Marriage and Retirement. Your last blog post was back in Mid-February. 2-3 blog posts a week should be the routine.

Good Luck to all the Bloggers!

Default New Old Blog

I started this blog a couple years ago when I was in debt. After I paid off my credit card debt I stopped blogging, but I am starting to update again because I have become more focused on saving money.

I'll post tips on saving money, fighting debt, and my general adventures with money. Hope you stop by!

Started my first blog a few weeks ago...

Master Your Card

It's fairly credit card-centric, but I hope to touch on other aspects of personal finance on a fairly regular basis.

I've been keeping a blog of my random sketches for a while... admittedly I've been really slack about it so I'm trying to make it a goal to get back into the swing of things. Alas, no frugality blogs from Hemi.

My blog is mostly about making cash by blogging, but I cover other topics, like music, funny stuff, saving a buck or two, writing, and generally just have a good time blogging about whatever.

Retire Blogger - That was an excellent post. I know I need to post more often (I just put out a slightly longer post on disability insurance).

I'm back to your blog to read some more posts.

Thanks!

ThePennyMine - The site looks great. Your topics are also right up my alley. Just this morning I added an additional amount to my 401k and did some reading on mortgages!
