Looking Back at 2019 and Looking Forward to 2020 Header Image

Happy 2020 everyone! As I normally try to do this time of year it’s time take a little retrospective on what’s been done over the last year and what I want to accomplish in the coming year.

Last Year

Last year my goals were:

  1. Produce 26 new “content” blog posts
  2. Double my readership. Based on Google Analytics.
  3. Improve my social media footprint.
  4. New site look. For reals.

Going through the list this is what happened:

  1. I produced 41 posts last year 10 of which where monthly link roll-ups which gives me a grand total of 31 content posts!
  2. This still didn’t happen. I’m not sure why my traffic is still more or less flat but increasing traffic is on my radar for this year.
  3. This mostly happened. I didn’t share out every post on social media but it was close
  4. Also didn’t happen again.

We spent a lot of this year adjusting to having our baby grow into a toddler and our eldest becoming a Kindergartener.

This Year

  1. New site look.
  2. Increase Google Analytics page view numbers by 25%. Double seems like a lot. :-)
  3. Produce 26 new “content” blog posts
  4. Produce 4 sets of screencasts on topic of interest to our readers.
  5. Start a mailing list. I’ve been seeing a lot about this lately and I’m hoping it can increase my reach.
  6. Generate an eBook.
