2007 goals

A lot of people are currently writing about their 2006 stats and 2007 goals and predictions, so I thought I would play along (considering I still need more content before I can actually call this a proper blog). It won’t be my predictions, but rather my goal/aim for this year.

Before I say what I will be focusing on in 2007, I’d like to summarise how 2006 panned out.

Dec 2005 – Bought myself a domain (www.geniosity.co.za) for Christmas
Jan 2006 – Moved my Home Deco blog from Blogger to it’s new home
Feb 2006 – Realised that there was something called SEO
Mar 2006 – Created a Google Desktop Sidebar plugin for the Performancing Metrics statistics tool called “gdPMetrics” which has been downloaded over 6,500 times (not too shabby in my opinion)
Nov 2006 – Realised that AdSense isn’t necessarily the way I want to earn money online, but rather try and go the affiliate route

So, in 2007, I figure I’m going to try and learn as much as I can about affiliate marketing. I have a LOOOONG way to go, considering I need to learn more about AdWords and the like, as well as trying to get higher conversions, but I still count this as a hobby, so I’m not stressed. My goal is to be making $2000 a month by the end of 2007. It might not seem like a lot to you, but think of me as Mr. Wendal.

If you feel like sharing your knowledge with me, I would REALLY appreciate it. Even if it’s just a plain old “3 step process for getting started with affiliate marketing (for dummies?)“

    Hi,
    your writings are interesting to read I must say.

    What’s your “day job”?

    So, what have you learnt so far? Are you gonna share? :)

    Cheers,

    Thanks for the complement. I’m a programmer by day, blogger by night :-)

    I actually think I’ll do a series on what I’ve learned this year. So stay tuned.

    It might be a lot of obvious things, but it’s what I know. And, like you said in a previous comment, it’s obvious to me because I know it. ;-)
