It’s been quite a year on A Geeky Gal blog. I re-branded, gained more AND new traffic, found my writing groove, and even started utilizing social media to meet other bloggers. I’ve had this blog for 4 years, and I have never felt as motivated to continue blogging as I do today.
One of the things I’m most proud of is my new branding. I feel like it’s definitely more “me” and more of the look I wanted. There’s still some changes coming though for the look and feel of the site. I also want to expand to Youtube! I really feel like I can reach more people and more geeks by creating vlogs and Youtube content which brings me to my blog resolutions for this year!
Blog Resolutions for 2018
- Finish website changes
- Create a Youtube channel
- Make pinnable images for ALL blog posts
- Have 150 WordPress followers (91 currently)
- Have 100 Facebook likes (68 currently)
- Have 300 Instagram followers (202 currently)
- Complete a 30 Day Blog Challenge
- Guest post for at least 2 bloggers
- Do a ‘Let’s Play’ for Youtube
- Host a giveaway
I usually don’t make resolutions because I never keep them. This year feels different though. I decided to focus on small goals that I knew I could complete so that hopefully it’ll push me to do even more. I have lost almost 40 pounds and want to reach my fitness goals this year. I also want to add to my portfolio and plan on giving it the attention is deserves. Here’s 10 of my personal resolutions for the New Year.
Personal Resolutions for 2018
- Reach my goal weight
- Make my Pinterest closet dreams come true
- Read one book a month (or 12 in a year)
- Finish the Library
- Design 10 branding boards for my portfolio
- Create 5 game-ready 3D models for my portfolio
- Pay off debt (not including school loans)
- Generate a second income
- Learn HTML/CSS
- Take a vacation

Awesome resolutions! The guest post and 30 day blog challenge sounds interesting!
I hope to read at least 24 books this year, find some internships, and work more with photography. I always say I’ll try developing my own film but never do 😛 hopefully that will change this year.

I wish you luck with your resolutions for the blog and personally. I’m intrigued by 30 day blog challenges but I also realised I’d probably not finish it. Maybe one day though. I hope you manage all of these.

Thank you! I’ve yet to actually complete a 30 day blog challenge as I just can’t seem to post every day consecutively. But this is my year to change that!

Thank you! I definitely want to complete one this year because I can’t ever seem to post for a straight 30 days… It’s time to break that!

You’ve set yourself a lot of targets. I love the Library, by the way. Looks awesome. It is possible you have more books than me. Having your own space is good in a house. I converted my spare room into my office/Library, and since I live alone my Living Room became my personal space. It works quite well.
A 30 day blogging challenge sounds pretty daunting, and I am saying that knowing I have stuff scheduled four times a week, weeks in advance. But, I wish you success in that as with you other goals of learning programming, becoming debt free and all those cool things. All the best!
