I won a competition in March with my post I’m scared of the cloud and I’m currently waiting for the arrival of my new tablet. When it arrives there is likely to be long discussions about who gets my old one; my husband or my 2 year old who appears to be much more interested them! I recently joined Instagram because I got tired of trying to upload pictures to using the Twitter app on my phone. I love the hints of what we got up to last month, so I’m sharing some of my favourites.
Although I wrote more posts in March, unfortunately none of them were popular enough to make it in to my top 5 most popular posts, which are the usual contenders. However on the positives, I move up to number 85 in the Hibs 100 chart and moved up slightly in the Tots 100 chart so I’m making improvements somewhere.
Don’t forget my survey, I’m going to close it soon and currently the most popular options are more scrapbooking and opinion posts. Quite a contrast to my last survey five years ago when goal identification and achievement was the most popular. How things change after having children!

So altogether a pretty good month with all numbers increasing and I’m going to try to write posts that do well in Google so I can see some new posts in my top 5. Do you have any tips?
How was March on your blog? How do you include Instagram in your blog?
Well done on moving up the charts 🙂 I’m so new to blogging so still getting to grips with how to get my blog noticed, getting there!xx
Well done on winning the tablet. I’m new to instagram, I have a link to it on my about page but that’s it, I don’t really conect blog post to it. Maybe as it grows I may, but it takes long enough with the others, I will have to keep an eye on it.
What an awesome win – my best win was a piano a couple of years ago. 🙂 As for stats I don’t pay any attention to them LOL x
Lots of great numbers. Your blog is doing well. I also have a nearly 2 year old that loves my tablet!
I use Instagram a lot now for reviews as well as hashtags #

What a fabulous win:) Thanks for sharing your stats, I am at about the same level as you, and always negatively comparing myself – a complete waste of time to do so!! I should be valuing where I am at!!!!
That’s definitely a fab win- Congratulations!
I like instagram but tend not to use it with my blog, more, like you’ve said, as a quicker route to publishing, than twitter.
Well done on your stats! Your most visited posts definitely make sense, think my most visited posts are really random- and have no idea why!
It’s interesting to look at stats, and I do keep an eye on mine. I’ve found that the best way to grow is to be active; commenting, sharing, retweeting; but that is hard work! I have started using Instagram and Pinterest more and I have links to them in my ‘connect with me here’. I’m getting more into G+, but still getting the hang of that. I’m trying very hard to just enjoy it all, and not get too concerned about the stats though 🙂
Congratulations Kate! I am sure Ed won’t get a look in when the new tablet arrives. I have just got back onto Instagram and I prefer it to Facebook for sharing photos.
I don’t usually check my stats but I thought it would be interesting to see how I’ve been doing this year. I usually blog most days of the week but we moved house in February and I’ve had weeks where I’ve not blogged at all because I’ve been too busy and my blog stats plummeted. I had my highest stats ever in December last year and January this year then my lowest in February and March. Things have started calming down with the house move now, just the new boiler and new kitchen left to do so hopefully I’ll be… Read more »
I have no tips, its often unexpected things that I get the most traffic from, and then something I am proud of can sink without a trace! I am no help at all really, any success I do have is through luck not judgement! Seems to me you are doing pretty well without advice from donuts like me anyway! 🙂
woot, it is me!
the most comments… haha
I’ve made the survey already… and well done on moving up in charts 😉
