It’s nearly 2008, another year has passed, so it must be time to formulate some rough plans for the year ahead.
Personally I have two sets of goals: ‘real life’ goals and online goals.
Real Life Goals
My real life goals are pretty simple. I want to carry on having an awesome time at university. The first term has been so much fun and I’m pretty happy with how the works going!
Online Goals
My online goals are also pretty straightforward: make enough cash online to not have to worry about how much beer I’m drinking at uni!
How am I going to achieve this? Well so far I have my eye on two actionable projects:
Once I have say, 20-50, mini niche sites and 10-20 eBay sites then I think that will be a pretty solid foundation for further ventures. I just need to find the time to make the websites.
What will your goals be for 2008?
Are you going to be blogging harder, faster, stronger? I’m not. It’s not very profitable unless you’re really unique. I’ll probably only be blogging when I feel I have something genuinely interesting to say. I’m bored of seeing the same regurgitated shit across the blogosphere and I don’t feel the need to participate.
Are you going to try and build your online empire? That’s what I’m going to do. I want to build 50 sites that make me $3 a day. It’s going to be a lot easier than making the next facebook. Once I’ve got the cash from that then I’ll think about the next facebook 
.
Are you going to expand your business? I’ve been doing a little freelance analytics work, which I wouldn’t mind doing more of but I doubt I’ll have much time while I’m at uni.
Are you going to embrace social media? While I’m an avid user of facebook I’m certainly not a power user on any social networks and I would really like to be but at the moment I just don’t have the time. Everyone seems to think when you’re at uni you have loads of free time but I can tell you that with the partying, the studying and the sleeping to recover there’s not a lot of time left!
Some random stats from 2007
The majority of people who found this blog in the past year, were looking for harry potter porn (I should probably try changing that next year). After that it was google analytics tutorials.
I got the most referals from stumbleupon, more than Google. I’m quite happy with that.
The blog that sent me the most traffic was davidnaylor.co.uk. That’s just from commenting though.
My top content was the big social media marketing mix.
Right I’m bored now, have a good new year!
