Over the past few months, I’ve put together quite a few articles, tutorials, and lists for the Thesis Theme community. As you can tell by looking in my sidebar, these posts are by far the most popular on my blog.
Since I started focusing on Thesis, My Technorati ranking has jumped a few MILLION spots. Additionally, my posts have been ReTweeted nearly 700 times (many thanks to @copyblogger), saved on Delicious nearly 500 times, and Stumbled 100 times. I received my first AdSense check and my first Thesis Affiliate check as well. I’ve even received nearly 4,000 spam comments! Exciting, right?
I’m approaching the 200 RSS subscriber mark, I’ve doubled my Twitter followers (with no crazy Twitter schemes or programs), and my blog traffic has increased every month for 5 consecutive months!
I’ve spent exactly $0 on advertising. I’ve depended solely on word-of-mouth and links from my fellow bloggers. Of course getting multiple links on the front page of the DIYthemes.com official Thesis blog (see here and here) never hurts (I even have a listed testimonial)! Other blogs that have sent me healthy servings of traffic are HowToMakeMyBlog, Asnio, and CollegeCandy (non-thesis related).
Basically, I’ve said all this to say THANK YOU! Thanks to those of you who faithfully read my blog, Thanks to those bloggers and administrators who link to MattFlies, and Thanks to those of you who accidentally end up here!
Also, due to the growing popularity of my blog, I’ve decided to *consider* making a single advertisement opportunity available. If you’re interested, let me know! It could be a traditional text link, banner ad, or a featured post highlighting your product.
