WHEW! 100 local posts in 100 days - I DID IT!!!

By
Real Estate Agent with RE/MAX Results St Cloud Mn real estate

WowIt has been a very fun and educational ride.

The best part of this exercise in blogging is the connections I have made through others here on ActiveRain. I also realized that one of the largest compliments that you can receive is being mentioned with a link in another ActiveRainers blog. I am honored that I have received this huge compliment from 3 professionals that I respect and admire.

Tish - http://activerain.com/blogsview/1838117/i-eat-challenges-for-breakfast-my-30-original-for-30-days-is-complete-look-ma-i-did-it  

Karen - http://activerain.com/blogsview/1813658/my-journey-day-16-oh-my-

Re-blogging is another huge compliment and several real estate professionals have been so kind as to honor me with their re-blog. Thank you so much!

There have been points where I was not sure what to write about for that day, and days when I wondered if anyone was reading what I was writing. We have already heard from others in the community that they have found my posts and there has been improved traffic to my website along with my Google position for the term St. Cloud real estate.

The series has no particular order it is just a list of wonderful reasons to enjoy living in the Saint Cloud and Central Minnesota area. You have just finished reading part one, I was going to list out the posts, but apparently thee is a limit from the blog provider (ActiveRain) on the number Characters in a post, yet there appears to be no limit to the number of Characters they will let join AR, hummmmm. Please check out the list it is actually quite a spectacle to see it all together (well in 3 posts.) Thank you for staying tuned and reading my Happy little Saint Cloud real estate blog full of wonderful reasons.

WHEW! 100 local Posts in 100 days - I did it!!! Part 1

Still not done check out Whew - Part 2 - ActiveRain Choked!

Whew - Part 3 - Because 100 is a lot of wonderful reasons!

Congrats on hanging in there!  Was this a challenge from AR, or something you did yourself?  Did you do the 30 in 30 challenge also?  You met some great members... good for you!  Kathy

Wow, you ladies were on top of this post, I did not even have the other 2 connected to this one up at the time of your lovely comments, Thank you!

Kathy, Hi, yes I ran into Karen's challenge when I was on day 60 of my own and just jumped in with hers as my posts counted. I did meet some wonderful members and I think I am going to keep that pattern, nice to meet you.

Hi Tina, Check the links at the bottom now, they should connect with the 100, also calling the DNR for their info packet is a help and looking on your county website and subscribing to local emails really helps with ideas too. Best of luck in your posting.

Hi Anna, It was the personal challenge, I knew if I committed to doing it I would get it done. Thank you very much for all of your support. We (Liz too) look forward to continuing our back and forth here on ActiveRain, and maybe when one of us takes a vacation or goes home for the holidays or something we will be able to meet (or maybe a RainCamp?) talk to you soon.

Congratulations Steve! I just finished the 30 posts in 30 consecutive days and it was a challenge. I'm not sure I have enough stamina to do 100. Really incredible and sounds like the payoff is good too.

Teral- Thanks, It was like swimming a distance I had not attempted before. Tiring but satisfying.

Susan- Thank you for noticing. Liz and I worked hard to secure access and photos. Some blogs were in draft for a while, while we waited for permission to put in a link, etc.

Tish-Sorry this is late. Your support and encouragement mean alot. I have been breathing the sea air every time i read your blog & I think drawing some inspiration. Thank you.
