The Fourth Month of Blogging

Written by Tomas Laurinavičius on Monday, February 1st in Blogging / News / 11 Comments

Just finished 1st month of 2010. January wasn’t so successfully month in case of traffic but I think it was another great month for WebDesignFan and me. I’ve posted my first Photoshop tutorial, made more friends on Twitter and Facebook and sold two ad spots via BuySellAds.

I would like to thank for two new contributors: Matej Halič and Yanuar Prisantoso. If you want to become an author on WebDesignFan please check Contribute page.

Another special thanks goes for our sponsors: PingVPS.com – VPS Server Hosting for the Custom Tech Group and Green Hosting. If you are interested in sponsoring WebDesignFan.com you can check our directory listing on BuySellAds.

I’ve canceled my Daily365 project because I don’t have much time for it. Shame on me. But I’ll try to learn new skills by doing some tutorials.

Here are some interesting statistics of January.

    Yes, Tutorials definitely fetch a lot of traffic, especially if they are original and of some great quality like the web design portfolio tutorial of yours.

    I can contribute WDF with some good inspirational articles or a few tutorials of my own. What do you say, Tomas?

    Wow. That’s awesome, and very impressive. You’ve accomplished results in four months that most bloggers will never be able to do in many many years.

    Keep publishing your stats, it’s very interesting to read.
