Excellent article on find a stone you can lift. It’s so true — we need to manage our expectations of our blogs. They are one piece of the marketing mix — albeit a very important one. But there is no point in running to Google Analytics every day to either rejoice or become miserable at the stats. Thanks for the sound advice and encouragement.

Thank you Toma,
I read this post just in time, as I was just in the depths of blog envy. I remembered some words of wisdom from(I can’t remember which famous blogger)that it takes about a year for a blog to gain visibility. Your post and these words give me a lot of support in continuing my endeavor.
I am definitely going to subscribe to your blog, as I found myself spending a long time reading your other valuable posts and following the links to more good stuff.
I find that even if I don’t receive the immediate acclaim I would love to have, that my continued learning about philanthropy, CSR, and social media makes blogging a very worthwhile endeavor.
