Yakezie Update
I have been a member of the Yakezie Challenge since Nov. 22. Last week, I was ranked 664,125 on the Alexa toolbar, this week I am at 512,889. My goal is to get under 200,000 by May. If I reach my goal before then, I’ll just have to create a new goal ; ).

Nice work on the guest posts, it is a great way to get your blog known by others. That Alexa rank will be down in no time, keep up the good work.

Thank you for mentioning me! Appreciate it! Don’t worry about Alexa. It will drop faster than you think.
