I have achieved quite a bit here on Active Rain since I first joined last year.  At that time I remember sayng "What would I have to write about?"  Since then I realize that I actually enjoy blogging.

I have gotten to number 1 in my area, passed my friend John in points and he's the guy who suggested I start doing it in the first place.  I have seen my blogs get to the first page of google and I have finally begun to get leads from my blogs.  I have closed one transaction so far this year that is a result of an AR lead and I have 2 more clients now who came to me via the hyper local blogs we did in July & August.  I've even been featured a few times in some of my favorite groups like Whacked and Club Chaos.

The one thing I can't seem to achieve is the featured post.  I know I shouldn't care, but I do.  I've written a few things that I thought might be feature worthy, but nothing.  I think we need to start a group where those of us who have never been featured can put our posts. 

I know that if I keep getting leads then i'll get over it but for now my feelings are a bit hurt :-)

Here are some of my favorite past posts:
