300 subscribers – time to celebrate and post roundup!

by Peter Anderson · 15 comments

We’re growing!

I checked our subscriber numbers today before posting a quick roundup of this week’s favorite articles, and noticed that today we topped the 300 subscriber number for the first time since the site launched.  I also noticed that at some point in the last week we topped 50,000 visitors to the site.  So to all of you out there that are now subscribing either via email or by RSS, or visiting the site on a regular basis, I thank you with all my heart. Without your readership and participation on this site, I probably wouldn’t have stuck with it these past few months.

@ FFB – Thanks man, I appreciate it!

@ Sam – 47 readers at one month is nothing to
sneeze at Sam, keep up the god work!

@ Pinyo – Thanks – it is a big deal to me – i can’t even imagine 1 person wanting to read what i have to say, much less 300 subscribers and 50k visitors! Maybe one day I’ll be a blog mogul like you!

@ Kimberly, thanks for reading! I really DO appreciate it!

@ Glblguy – thank you so much, you’ve been more help to me than you know.

@ Frugal Dad – Actually you helped me out a lot by sending so much blog logo work my way after posting about me that one time. :) Frugaldad mentions a website and they have instant credibility!
