Happy New Year, 2008!

Written by admin the 1 of January at 9:30 am

I wanted to post on Jan 1 and wish everyone a Happy New Year for 2008.  I am not really much into doing “new year’s resolutions” but I would like to set a goal for myself to blog more this year.  I’ve had one internet business close down, but 3 or 4 more open in 2007.  Additionally I have plans for several more sites that could be good with Making Money Online or gaining members and hit-counts, or hopefully both.  I don’t want to divulge too much yet, but keep checking back this year for new projects that I am working on.

2007 Projects: 

My most successful 2007 kick-off project was my new Heroes Blog, based on the hit TV show Heroes.  Before the show ended for the writer’s strike, I was averaging about 300 hits/day.  That doesn’t sound like much really, but considering I haven’t promoted the site hardly at all, it is less than 6 months old AND that once I registered it and put up the first homepage, it was already a P2 on Google, I don’t think it is bad at all.

The other 2 projects are my Dexter Blog, based on the Showtime original series Dexter, and the Bionic Woman Blog I put up for that show. Dexter and Heroes seem to be doing quite well with ratings, but I am not too hopeful about The Bionic Woman.

Everyone have a great New Year and check back often for more updates in 2008.
