Monthly & Yearly Blog Goals

14th May 2015
Β 
As someone who loves a good to-do list, and feels rather excited by crossing things off these said to-do lists; I couldn’t let the opportunity pass to share one of my recent favourites with you guys. At the start of the year (January 1st, to be exact!), I decided to make some blogging goals for the entire year, in the hopes it would keep me organised and focused. I also decided to make extra goals each month as time goes on, so that I can keep things fresh in my mind and motivate me for small tasks.

 

So since we’re almost halfway through the year, I’d like to share some of my thoughts so far for monthly and yearly blogging goals…

(Bold are the ones I’ve done already)

Goals for 2015:

– Host a Twitter chat (confirmed, soon!)

– Open an Etsy shop

– Reach 1000 Bloglovin followers

– Finally get the hang of affiliate links (and use them)

– Reach 3000 Twitter Followers

– Publish 400 posts

– Reach 2000 Bloglovin followers

– Attend a blogger meet up (two so far!)

– Reach 100,000 views

– Reach 5000 Twitter followers

– Turn the spare room into an actual office for blogging/work

– Push my DA up to 30

– Work with more brands

– Design new business cards

Monthly Goals:

– Take part in at least one Twitter chat each week

– Publish at least three posts each week

– Add to my art journal

– Fill up my advertising slots

 

It feels fantastic to see the things I’ve achieved so far, whether big or small. Seeing the things I’ve yet to do doesn’t leave me disheartened either; I’m motivated to keep going! I have so many ambitions inside and outside of blogging, and knowing I’m on the right track really helps to keep me focused.

Do you guys set yourselves monthly or yearly goals?

Let me know how you’re doing so far!

    I set myself so many, then cry when I don’t reach them haha. I do want to reach 3000 BL followers by the end of the year though, and complete my 30 before 30 list. It’s great to set yourself goals to keep you on track

    I personally don't really set goals but its something I really want to start doing to help keep me on track. It must be so motivating knowing you have already achieved some of your goals! πŸ™‚

    I just found your blog via Twitter. I really like what you are doing here so I added you to my bloglovin'. Looking forward to seeing your posts in the future.

    My blog goals are to create better content. I am shy about writing about myself so I need to bump up the personal posts.

    Love writing to-do lists, especially when they are positive blog goals! I think I might have to do this too. Lets see how many I can tick off!

    I love this! So positive and has inspired me to do the same. I've never attended a bloggers meet up but i'd like too! I think I would be super nervous/anxious about doing it but I'd like to. Hope you get to tick off your goals! xx

    I'm always setting goals then promptly forgetting about said goals until I see a post like this, then I remember my list, have a look and realise how much I haven't done – and this is a habit I am finding so hard to kick! It's such an amazing feeling to be able to tick something off a list! I really want to re-do my blogging goals and set up a 30 before I'm 30 list too!

    Its great to see you achieving so many of your goals. I find having "to do" lists keeps me all the more motivated to keep doing what I'm doing. Keep at it and I'm sure you'll have heaps more of these ticked off in no time πŸ™‚

    I do enjoy having goals! I only set myself one blog related goal for this year, to reach 1,000 bloglovin followers. Even though, I don't really care for the numbers, I do enjoy reaching the milestones.
    The rest of my goals for the year, revolve mainly around food πŸ™‚
