Setting Your Blogging Goals for 2009

Every year I sit down towards the end of the year and come up with my goals for the upcoming year. This year is no exception. Yet I’ve also added a new level to my goal charts – a whole section on blogging.

Even though I’ve been blogging for years, I’ve never used them to generate revenue. Instead, I always saw them as a way to build traffic for my sites, ultimately selling my services.

But something clicked this year, and I’ve seen what blogging can do. So this year, I’ve decided write down my goals for my three blogs, (HowToBlog, Virtual and Vision) and use them to evaluate my performance throughout 2009.

Want to join me? Write up your own blogging goals, and post your comments here. Or if you want to make it even more official, write a blog post about your goals, and put your ideas in writing.

My 2009 Blogging Goals

to reach 10,000 RSS subscribers on each of my blogs
to reach 2,000 Twitter followers
to make a full time, six figure income through revenue generated by my blogs
to publish 1 new program on each blog, helping my readers develop their businesses
to teach one class each month on the power of blogging

What are your goals?

If you’d like a tool for setting your goals, you can use this web application:

http://www.Gtdagenda.com

You can use it to manage your goals, projects and tasks, set next actions and contexts, use checklists, schedules and a calendar.
A mobile version is available too.
