One Year of Blogging

I have just finished a full year of blogging on my CEO blog. It seems like more.

This year, I did 200 entries so more than every other day. At 20 minutes each (see my article on how to write a blog entry in 20 minutes), thats about 67 hours. I am sure I would have spend another 67 hours in set up and maintenance.

I wrote over 50 mini book reports on the blog. Many of the posts had some reference to time management or leadership (thats the blog theme so they should).

10 of the posts were slightly rewritten an published elsewhere as articles:


8 tips on how to write an article in 20 minutes
60 Minutes To Clear Goals
9 Ways To Network Easily
Efficient Blogging
Good Ways To Procrastinate And When Procrastination Might Be Good
Guerilla Versus Gorilla - Small Companies Can Win
Jim Estill's 8 Rules Of Time
Successful Merger Synergies – How To Make It Work
The Ten Cardinal Rules Of Blogging
The Top 10 Ways To Grow Your Small Business

The blog brought me some traditional paper press. I was featured in Forbes magazine, The Globe and Mail and Rex.

I also moved CEO Blog to my own domain www.jimestill.com (so if you still are coming here via the old blogspot address, pleas change your bookmark)

Today I will set new goals including new blog goals. I think to start, I should at least get 12 articles from my blog published elsewhere. I will also set traffic goals. And link goals (I lost most of my links when I moved to my own URL so dropped from 40,000 to 400,000) so will need to build that back up.
