Bon Anniversaire! A Tentative Personal Finance Blog is ONE month old. It’s been an exciting first month. I’m actually surprised at a few of the things that were accomplished. My goal of posting at least once at day was met and mostly exceded, except for one day. The site has had over 5000 visits from all over the world in the first month and is now averaging between 400 and 500 visits a day. I’m not really sure how to gauge that, but to me it’s a huge success. I love waking up each morning and seeing my RSS feed numbers grow. It’s at 45 subscribers right at the time of this post. If you haven’t subscribe yet, what are you waiting for?

Just wanted to say a personal thanks to my buddy Milenko for hosting this site. Also thanks goes out to John Chow at Make Money Online and Michael Kwan at Beyond the Rhetoric for helping with some of the coding and ideas for monetizing the site. Couldn’t have done it without you guys. Thanks!
