100 POSTS AND COUNTING...BY THE NUMBERS IN ACTIVE RAIN!

Today I posted my 100th article since beginning my blog writing in January 2011. Along the way I've accumulated 63,996 points, achieved the rank of #30 in Austin, Texas on the AR roster, rewarded with 2 features: First Blog and about Time (http://actvra.in/67m) and Push the Suggest Button: (http://actvra.in/7Wy) while acquiring 214,725 colleagues along the way!

I learned about Happy Grasshopper from Susan Emo (Gananoque, ON) and Sally Dunbar gave me great tips for a new blogger (ActiveRain blogging tips for Newbies - What I've learned here... (50 pointers and growing). May Friend recently posted a super article with a staging video that I couldn't resist book marking (A great staging video I found...).

Consistently I can find insightful post from Dorie Dillard (Dorie Dillard: Canyon Creek & NW Austin Living); Alan May (Holy Morklefeathers!) with his ever changing blog title and Barbara Todaro(Barbara Todaro "Franklin MA Homes" : The Kuney-Todaro Team.... Franklin MA Real Estate) with her wisdom.

I know there's many more out there in Active Rain land that have passed along tidbits of knowledge that I use so I give thanks to you all. Know that you are appreciated and rewards aren't always monetary.

Active Rain get ready...I'm beginning my next 100 posts and will look for guidance from my peers!

Gwynn...

Wow! Congratulations and keep on blogging. I think that the first 100 are definitely the hardest!

Richard: I didn't know blogging could be so productive and fun...and who knew that I would have written 100 post in 9 months? Just like birthing a baby!! (or so I've been told).

Gwynn - Congratulations on your first 100 posts and I look forward to many many more blog posts. I thank you for the honourable mention too! HappyGrasshopper.com has been a wonderful tool in my business arsenal. . . Cheers!

Georgina: You bet I'm sticking around...I found a place to use my voice AND my ears! I'm working on the 100,000 point to happen before the end of the year.

Susan: Happy Grasshopper has gotten me emails from clients but hasn't paid for it self yet (o yea- I use the free version) but know it will and you will have had a hand in that success. I've got to find how to fine tune my blog as its looking ragged.
