Comments on: Your Article Author Goals? http://blog.ezinearticles.com/2005/10/your-article-author-goals.html Wed, 15 Oct 2008 21:30:46 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.0.2 by: Lance Winslow http://blog.ezinearticles.com/2005/10/your-article-author-goals.html#comment-750 Sun, 01 Jan 2006 05:12:33 +0000 http://blog.ezinearticles.com/2005/10/your-article-author-goals.html#comment-750 On October 27, 2005 at 8:30am, I, Lance Winslow, committed to have 3000 articles by January 1, 2006 and 750,000 article views; at the time I had only 2575 articles and 610,000 articles views. With regards to this lofty goal I stated; "This is going to be a tough one indeed, some say impossible, yet something inside is saying "oh yeah, watch me!" Time will tell" and the race had begun. Today is January 1, 2006 and I have surpassed this goal and now have 3333 articles written. I have surpassed that goal by 333 articles and written 758 articles since that goal was made in roughly three months time. Instead of 750,000 article views, action has rewarded me, as action always rewards life; with 844,800 article views. Thus surpassing my goal by 94,800 article views. This is 235,000 article views in about 3-months. Actually the goal, which was set for 3000 articles was accomplished on November 19 and I did not write an article for 3 weeks and resumed again on December 15 and write 333 articles to finish out the year. On December 1 my article views surpassed my goals a month early, thanks to EzineArticles.com and my robust article posting campaign. I would like to make a point here. I am not a writer, yet if a non-writer can do this, then anyone can. I indicated that time would tell and indeed it has, I have surpassed my goals that others said was impossible. I have surpassed these goals by a wide margin; you can too. For those who tell others it cannot be done, I say to you; �Oh yah, watch us! Time, that�s right; Time will tell.� Tell me your goals for 2006 are you going to make them happen or tell others they cannot achieve theirs? Think on this in 2006.

If you will recall my goal was orginally to accomplish 3000 articles and 750,000 article views by Jan 1. My comment upon the completion of this goal is this. I often find humans to be rather big talkers and under achievers, not willing to do what it takes to accomplish the mission. This weakness is unfortunate for such a species at the top of their food chain. I wish more people would do what they say, over deliver and do what ever it takes. I wish you all well, but also wish to kick you in the ass a little to get your butts moving. Today is December 1, 2005; I have beaten my goal of 750,000 article views by 7500.

I have completed my 3000th artile on 11/19 ahead of my orginal target date of Jan. 1, 2006and the revised date of 11/30. In october I posted 570 articles and wrote 285,000 words. This month so far I have written 425 articles and beat my best estimates. I can tell you this, setting goals and sticking to them works.

On October 27, I set some lofty goals. “My goal is to have 3000 articles by Jan. 1 and 3/4 of a million (750,000) article views by then.” At that time I had 2575 articles and 610,000 article views. I admitted the tough nature of this lofty goal. In October I posted 570 articles. On November 2, 2005 I complete one-third of my goal with less than 100,000 article views away from 3/4 of a million. At that point I knew I would succeed at the 750,000 article views if I stopped writing, but I had 260 articles to go on that day. This reduced my must write over 4.333333 Articles per day to get to my goal by January 1, 2005. Today is November 14, 2005 and I have 2871 articles and 129 articles left to get to the impossible goal of 3000 articles. I have 702,000 article views and need 48,000 more to get to my 750,000 article view goal by January 1, 2006. To complete my goal on time I must write 2.1 articles per day or I will fail. But my average is 12 per day currently, so I am moving up my goal to December 1, 2005 to succeed a month earlier? Since no one has ever written 3000 articles in 9 months before, we do not know if this is indeed possible. I believe it is and am therefore raising the bar and going for it.

However, I am concentrating on article topics that relate to a few websites that I will have up soon. So the content must be prime as well as interesting to read--a focus on 3 or 4 topics. I will be satisfied if I can create 2 articles a month that will mean something, and be of value to those who read them. Helpful, practical, usable, and new information are my generic keywords for my articles. Have a great day, Curt Hi Chris,

On October 27, 2005 when I posted my objectives I was at: 2575 articles and 610,000 article views. Today is November 2, 2005 and I am at 2740 units and 657,777 article views. My goal as stated is still: My goals is to have 3000 articles by Jan. 1 and 3/4 of a million (750,000) article views by then. I am one-third the way to my article goals and less than 100,000 article views away from 3/4 of a million. So, Therefore I will succeed at the 750,000 article views if I stop writing, but I have 260 articles to go. I am calling them units, but 260 articles in 2 months may be impossible; I am told by many, as that is over 4.333333 Articles per day and that is a boatload indeed. Maybe I should quit now, because it seems so difficult and everyone says I cannot do it? I am certainly impressed indeed with the lofty goals, shear will and complete dedication, determination and commitment of this group of authors, no wonder EzineArticle Authors have made this the number one site for online article distribution on the Planet.

Quality is always a must. My current topic is wedding-related, as weddings are my specialty. But I intend to cover some new topics in 2006 in addition to all things wedding. I'm looking forward to the new year. My goal is to write a minimum of 10-15 more articles between now and the new year. Quality is always a must.

The son of James Yates, a minister, he and his large family moved from Guthrie to Phoenix. The year was 1914, and he was eleven. He lead an adventurous life, always a horseman and, fortunately for us, he had an outstanding sense of humor. Hugh Downs wrote the foreword for us. My intention is for our book to become a best-seller on Amazon.com on November 29, 2005. If I can get thousands of people to order on that day, it will happen. Reviews have been excellent. If you don't like to do business on the Internet, it can be ordered from Xlibris by calling toll-free 1-888-795-4274. Present-day Oklahomans probably never heard of Hube Yates. They should get acquainted. They'd enjoy this personable, adventurous man who didn't like bullies. Sample chapters can be read at Amazon.com (click "Inside the Book") or at Xlibris.com/bookstore. If you would like more description of the book, please send me your e-mail address at ggarrison@sedona.net.

I don't use Jeff Herring's, although I'm certain there're excellent. I have developed my own sets of writing templates based on the kind of writing I produce or article series that I've seen and like. My first post on EzineArticles was in mid September and as of today, October 31st, I have 33 articles up. My goal for the end of October was 30 so it was exceeded. By the end of 2005 my goal is 50. Maybe 100 will be reached shortly after that if I rely heavily on article templates. I encourage everyone to produce quality articles on a regular basis and not get intimidated by cranking out "numbers". Unfortunately, many "articles" I've read on Ezine Articles I wouldn't call articles. Thanks for reading this.
