June 2017 Income and Traffic Report (2024)

Welcome to Budget with Belle monthly Income and Traffic report. If you’re new toBudget with Belle, you maybe wondering why I would want to publish my income report online.

I know, it’s a bit taboo to disclose what you made/lost. I wrestled with this idea of publishing my income and expenses online for awhile now. But, after much thought, why the heck not?!So, going forward (until I decide to stop), I’ve decided to create a monthly blog traffic, income, and goals report.

I have a few reasons why I decided to start doing this, but here are my big 3:

As a new blogger, I’ve been inspired by reading other bloggers monthly reports. Specifically, what they’ve learned, what they’d do differently, and other strategies that helped them grow their following.
.
Pinterest is chalked full of blog income reports! I could probably spend hours reading them all. Hopefully, my blog reports will help other newbie bloggers as well.
.
I’m eager to share what I’ve learned over the past 30 days. SEO, Pinterest, Social Media, etc…There is SO much to learn in the blogging world! Though it’s sometimes overwhelming, I’m looking forward tobecoming a blogging subject matter expert.

Bonus

By publishing my goals in such a public forum, I’ll be able to hold myself accountable more than I would if I just wrote down a few goals in my notebook. Plus, I’d like to connect with other bloggers who might be aiming toward the same goals.

If you are interested in starting ablog of your own, I createda tutorial that will help you start a blog ofyour own for cheap, starting atonly $3.95 per month (this lowprice is only through my link) for blog hosting. In addition to the low pricing, you will receivea free websitedomain (a $15 value) through my Bluehost linkif you purchase, at least, 12 months of blog hosting.
