Income & Traffic Report – April 2019

April came and went REALLY quickly! Between prepping for our Ireland trip (more on that to come!) and being out of town the first two weeks of May this post kinda fell off the schedule until now. BUT here it is.

April Traffic Numbers

My page views went down a little bit this month compared to last month, but there’s nothing to worry about there. Traffic numbers ebb and flow, no need to get hung up on that.

Once again my best performing blog post was Perfect 7 Day Road Trip Itinerary: Grand Canyon Plus Zion National Park to Bryce Canyon . That’s four months in a row!

My top performing post had nothing to do with the outdoors…aside from keeping me warm outside. I have been working on this shawl for over a year and I FINALLY finished it just in time for our Ireland trip! Thank god! Turns out ya’ll were just as excited about this as I was so thank you so much for all your wonderful and kind comments.

I’ve pretty much come to terms with the fact that April and May aren’t going to be quite as productive as I would like. AND THERE’S NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT! This Indoorsy Camper thing is a hobby. Would I like it to be a money-making endeavor in the future? I’m not gonna lie to you, the answer is yes. BUT I recognize that it takes time to build something, and even more time to build something great. So I’m willing to take my time and slowly move forward with this little project.

Goals for May:

Who are we kidding! May is like 1 week away! No goals…just keep swimming!
