Just a quick post today to celebrate the 3rd blog birthday of FIby35. I had been considering starting a blog for several months before finally publishing my very first post on January 18, 2021.
Some stats from the past year:
- Page views: 378
- Visitors: 169
- Most page views in one day: 55
- Followers: 4 (at least I haven’t lost any)
Of the 23 posts, these were the 5 most popular in terms of page views:
- Travel Hack Recap: Cancun, Mexico
- July 2023 Financial Update
- Our 2022 Spending Revealed
- December 2022 Financial Update
- Travel Hack Recap: Europe, Part 3 – London
Interestingly, the Travel Hack Recap of Cancun was posted way back in March 2021.
Total number of posts was up this year, though there was admittedly some pretty sparse months in the middle of the year. I kept up with the monthly financial updates, but additional information was scarce. I still have a backlog of information to share on the rest of our Europe trip in Fall 2022, as well as a few other vacations from the first half of 2023. I’m hoping to do a better job of filling in the gaps before the next blog birthday comes and goes.
Obviously, I haven’t hit it big yet in terms of popularity, but that wasn’t my intent in the first place. I’ll continue posting in hopes that documenting our journey to FI and beyond will be entertaining (and maybe even helpful) for somebody someday.
Happy 3rd Blog Birthday (to myself), and thanks for reading!
