The 60 Day Challenge - The Return : : Increasing Online Traffic and Earnings
59The 60 Day Challenge - The Return
I am back, after taking a rest, I feel invigorated this time and I am excited to write again. The last month was just tiring for me, finding a new place to move and some personal things to do. To those who are following and reading my hubs, you all know that I participated in a 60 day challenge -- The 60 Day Challenge Agenda -- Writing and Promoting Online which was spearheaded by Sunforged last April to May of 2010. It was a successful undertaking not only because my views/traffic increased by almost three hundred plus views (fluctuating at times) and it is still increasing by increments but the adsense clicks also increased. Furthermore the techniques I learned in promoting and backlinking hubs are just invaluable. It was a great undertaking working with a dedicated group of people.
This is the first 60 Day Challenge I joined in and some hublogs which you can check if you want to follow it up.
Pertinent 60 Day Challenge HUBS
My Motivations and Objectives in Joining the 60 Day Challenge - The Return
This time around I am participating again in the second round of the
challenge to increase my knowledge about getting traffic and increasing
your earnings. It is always a challenge for me to learn new things and
challenging myself. I learned a lot from the previous 60 day challenge
and I intend to start from what I learned and to share to others as
well.
- Learning is an ever continuing process and it can be fun specially if you are determined to learn and achieve your goals. It becomes more fun and easier if you are with a group of equally challenged individuals who have nearly the same objective as yours.
- I want to increase my viewership by two hundred (200) at least, then from then on it will continue to increase.
- I want to increase my earnings, at the moment, I am receiving my monthly adsense already and while it is not as much as I want it to be -- I know I can increase it more by joining challenges and l can learn more by joining this challenge.
- I want to push myself in searching for options and alternative ways to increase viewership and how will people stay to read my hubs and click on the adverts.
- I want to write more well targeted keywords which will bring in traffic.
How will I Achieve my Objectives for the 60 Day Challenge - The Return
- I will closely monitor the dashboard (installed them already) and participate fully plus actively in the group undertaking. I will also actively participate forum chat for the members of the group.
- I will actively chip in whatever the group decided to do in terms of group effort
- I will be writing about women's accessories plus child care -- infancy and toddler. I will be writing fifteen hubs about child care focusing on (infant and toddler care), 15 for women's accessories (style and fashion). I hope to maximize affiliate sales and google adsense while writing these topics.
- Since I started learning more about keywords I am definitely trying to maximize the use of keywords and phrases hoping to learn to know what works and what will not work (and know the difference).
- In addition to the above undertaking, I will closely analyze my google analytics which I just started doing.
- This will be my log to the challenge and will serve as the page for writing the developments I am making. I will write the hubs here with the summary towards the end of the hubs.

These 30 day and 60 day challenges are tough...it's tough sometimes between time and other factors just to write a couple of hubs a week, let alone 7. So, anyone who can do this I certainly applaud.
Incidentally, I HAVE been thinking about doing a few of what I like to call "anchor" hubs. Or, hubs that are not time specific (like political hubs can often times be). One of my best performing hubs to date (although "Show Me Yours, And I'll Show You Mine" has now taken the lead) is "Forget Ragu, Spaghetti Sauce From Scratch Is Easy." Other recipe hubs are doing well as well.
In the meantime, I'll be looking forward to reading what you can churn out, and best of wishes to you Maita. :)
Good luck, Maita. Nice to have you back. Missed you.
Your motivation ensures your success. Glad to have you back.
Blessings,
Forever His,
Welcome back. Certainly missed your presence here. Good luck and I know you're going to do fabulously.
arh... I always have a soft spot for PDH! I cant tell you how much I am pleased that we are working together! Hand in hand in a journey will be fun, so see you soon x
Welcome back, Maita. It's good to be talking to you once again. I certainly missed you. As far as the challenge is concerned, I'm glad it's not me, but you. You have to be driven to crank out that many hubs in so little time. Anyway, I will be pulling for you all the way. Good luck!
Sounds like you have a serious mission on hubpages,wish you a best of luck for success!

Hi Carolyn, thanks and I miss you as well, Maita
Hello Maita, Cheeky Girl and I wish you lots of success and hope you have plenty of new followers and fans reading your hubs. I must say, you are very brave to do the 60 day challenge. Whew! Amazing. You are the Energiser Bunny of Hub Pages. Hahahaha. Good luck, Maita.
Thanks for the invite. I would really like to do this, but being a full time single Dad and running my SEO business just doesn't allow the time.
I may do one in the future though.

Prettydarkhorse - all I can say is Wow! 241 hubs in 10 months is quite an achievement. Thanks for participating in this challenge & sharing your knowledge.
I would love to know how you can use google analytics with hubpages. Can you see specific hub results?
lisabeaman, you're welcome my dear, Maita
Hi Pro Design, yes you can and just link your email add to google analytics, actually did you check the individual hub metric and stats here at HP already, it is above the title of your hub, I am glad to be working with you, Maita
Hey Astra, cheers and thanks a lot my dear, With lots of love for you and Cheeky girl, Maita
Hi prettydarkhorse - I just stopped by to say hi...one of these days I can enter these challenges but I look forward to reading and learning what I can in the interim...thanks
pdh - I look forward to gaining knowledge from you as a returning XC hubber. I always seem to get good bits of knowledge from you through the forum and I hope to gain even more working directly with you!
Thanks Dobson, we will help each other, Maita
mtsi, am glad to see you again here, Take care and thanks for your nice words, Maita
You are such an inspiration. I'm looking forward to working with you on the challenge.
I usually write over 60 hubs in 60 days, so taking the hub challenge should not be much of a challenge for me, but it might keep me from going that occasional day or so without writing at all. I know I need to keep my creative juices flowing, and I get somewhat down when I don't. Interesting hub. (:v
Here we go again. Good luck with the 60dc! Go team!
Hey Maita, I've been seeing your postings in the 60dc forum, but kept missing you in 'real time'. Looking forward to working closely with you for the next 60 days. Take care my friend! :)
Hi M, you're back, HOORAY, I will be glad to work with you my friend, Maita
Good luck to all of us, thanks pakpub for dropping by, Maita
Hi valerie, you could have join us my dear, thanks for the visit again, Maita
Hi Wendy, thanks for your nice comment, Maita
The Return Increasing Online Traffic and Earnings Great article about earn money online thanks for sharing
interesting information about earn money online thanks for sharing hub page community so keep it
Yo Maita! I love you Dear but I am negative. I see no money coming out of hubpages. It's like believing in God. Some do some don't. I certainly do not believe in money coming from hubpages. I can't put out anymore effrot. I have to write what I feel good about. I can't consider a time line which will help our "hub owners". They can't even talk that I know of. I hit all your buttons as usual. I'm glad this works for other folks. God bless!
kingkhan78, thanks for dropping by, and for your nice comment, Maita
Hello, prettydarkhorse. I'm joining this wonderful event late but I wanted to wish you good luck!
-K. Alto
Nice to see you back, Maita!
Micky Dee, thanks for your cheering me up, Missing you and your hubs too, will go and take a look now, Maita
K. Alto, welcome aboard, please feel free to ask anything, Maita
Thanks Cris, Maita
I am so excited Maita! I was feeling lost since I failed to complete the original challenge. I did quit smoking during that time so it was not a total loss! It is amazing to be so healthy this time around. I am looking forward to participating in the special forum this time, which was where I had my downfall last time. I missed out getting the mentoring that was available there.
This is a great hub log and thanks for including links to the past challenge hubs, so I can catch up on what I missed!
Hey Faybe, don't hesitate to call or email me if you have qs, at least you quit smoking, that's a great achievement, Maita
Glad to see ya' return, PDH...Good Fortune with your goal!
PDH, Swinging by to see how the challenge is going for you. I see that you plan on paying more attention to your analytics data now. How is it navigating around and finding what you need in there?
Hey there. Thanks for organised links. Keep up the good work.
hi glendocaba, thanks also and good luck, Maita
