Two Month Update

Wow!  What a crazy two months I’ve had since this blog went online!  I’ve met some awesome people both online and offline and have been thrilled with the progress of this blog.  I’ve gone from zero subscribers to 100 after one month to over 470 after two months.  Thank you to everyone who read my blog!

What kicked things off was my blog post about 101 great blog posting ideas.  That brought in a flood of subscribers and visitors who still come in regularly nearly a month after the post.  Thanks again for all of you who dugg, stumbled and linked to it; that was very kind.

I also decided to make a change in my offline job.  I will be leaving the legal world and joining a bank on the business side.  With that should come better hours and more predictability.  Anyone who works in New York City as a corporate finance lawyer will know what I mean when I say that sooner or later almost everyone leaves law firm practice because of the unpredictability and the hours.

I started this blog intending to post daily and on a regular basis.  This was going pretty well until I stumbled across Frank Schilling’s blog while preparing to do a post about domaining.  As I read about this strange little niche, I found myself becoming increasingly captivated by its potential.  And over the last two weeks I have been trying to absorb as much knowledge about this industry as possible.

For those of you who have visited my Cell Phone News site, I am in the process of redesigning the template and layout to better take advantage of advertisers who have frequently requested to be featured on the site.  Right now, the income on that site is about one-third of what it could be.  I’m very excited about the new design and it should be live within a month.  It will make an interesting case study on how design can influence revenue for a professional blog.

Finally, I purchased a domain name recently in the four-figure range.  I plan to develop a site that I hope will be able to bring in steady revenue and I’m very excited about it.  I plan to do a feature post on how I went about researching and picking this particular domain name.
