I figure it will take a total of about 3 months to get totally immersed and up to speed with my new blog, or any new blog, if you are somewhat knowledgeable and savvy with your blogging platform. Figure 4 months if you don’t have the skills before venturing forth. My guess is that after 3 months, you’ll have 75% of the process figured out if you are working at writing good content.

You had mentioned on a post of mine, Jacob, that the first 3-6 months are the toughest. I’m exactly on track after 6 weeks. This post is like a shadow of what I’m doing now, except no major Digg post of course. This is so fascinating.

I wonder if there is some other blogging site that carries user-reported stats like 1) what social media you are using, 2) how long are posts, 3) frequency, 4) platform and plugins, etc etc. I bet the data would confirm exactly what you have posted on this “old” post and is likely still exactly true at the end of 2009. It has been exactly the same for me…

Keep up the great work!

Usually it is frowned upon submitting your own articles. If the articles are of a high standard people will do the submitting for you. Interesting about the science category.

Interesting. I am getting huge (by my standards) traffic from Reddit, not much from the other sites, although I submit many of my blog posts to all four of the big social bookmarkers. I agree that they mostly just seem to look at the one page and then vanish, never to be seen again.

I’ve found that categorising the post as Science gets me lots of Reddit hits, so that may be another factor.

Well SU does send steady traffic which is great. DesignFloat is great for short little bursts but like I said only about 40% of the visits from designfloat are new.
I am not so sure about your problem as I have never used SU ads before. Organic traffic is better anyway.

Let me know of your list when it’s up.

Very interesting article, it has helped me limit my focus to stumbleupon and designfloat. It seems a lot easier to write articles for designfloat, but man, stumbleupon doesn't really like me. I get about 3 secs on average from them when I tried using stumbleupon ads. The organic stumbleupon traffic does seem to stay longer, which is odd, because its the same article. The only way I can tell the two apart is because someone stumbled one of my articles and I got 200 so visits averaging 48 seconds. The next day, I get trickles of stumbleupon hits so I decide to try the stumbleupon ads with that article. When the analytics data came in, it showed that they only stayed for 3 secs. Any idea? The only way a stumbleupon user can tell it is an ad is this little green guy in the corner so I doubt its that. Maybe they are just fickle O.o I am going to try to write a list following your short style and see how it goes. Thanks again.
