So, this is just a small report / documentation to track the growth of codewithmukesh.com. I would like to be very transparent with what happens in and around the blog. I would document various paramters of the blog month-wise. This includes Income & Expense, Traffic stats, Followers on social media, Subscriber count, Plans for the next month and so on.
Table of Contents
May & June 2020
I started this blog on May 12, 2020, with near-to-no knowledge about blogging. My first report will be for May 12 – June 30, 2020. I started off with the aim to write at least 15 good length articles and to attain at least 1000 visitors. I chose 1000 because few of the bloggers I knew in this space ( relatively new programming bloggers ) were getting around 2-4k visitors on an average. So here is how many views my blog got in the past 45 days.
87,915 Page Views! and 37,692 Unique Visitors! That’s a huge number to get as new Blogger. Thank you everyone. The sudden spikes you see on the chart are the times when Google decided to show me some LOVE. codewithmukesh.com got featured more than 4 times on Google Chrome for Android / Mobile, which drove insane traffic into the blog. Like, around 8,000 views a day. I know that I got too lucky this month, which is why I am not expecting the same for the next month. Of the 87k views, around 5k of them were organic, which is still awesome. Here are other stats.
Total Posts: 24 Long-Form Articles
Facebook followers: 750+
Twitter followers: 120+
Email Subscribers: 350+
Here is the interesting part. Income / Expense
Income : 120 USD
Expense : 65 USD (for Divi Theme Builder and other Essentials)
For the next month, July 2020, I am looking for at least 30-40k Page Views with no much expectations on the income. Generating Income via the blog is something that I would put away for now. More Concentration on the content. I hope to deliver at least 20 More Articles for the next month. I am writing such reports also to inspire other developers who are planning to start a blog. How about a detailed tutorial on How to start a programming blog? Let me know in the comments section. Thanks!
