Welcome to the Yearly 2017 Report for AliRaza.co. This is the 21st Progress Report of this Blog. So instead of having a december report, I planned to have a 2017 in review at Whole. The purpose of this yearly report is to review the amount of work I do every month, along with website, social media and subscribers statistics. In other words, I critique the performance of myself and my blog every month to see where i’m standing. Hope you people like it, but still this is an experimented reports as this is the first time, I’m writing an yearly report, so if you have any suggestions or something should i improve on, please mention it freely.

Most visited pages in the year 2017 :
Well In 2017 Year, the top 3 articles were :
However, personally my favourite article is : How To Make Money online? Because it’s a 10,000 word guide for people who are trying to learn for different ways to make money online.
Subscribers :
Let’s have a look on the subscribers to find and analyze where I’m standing as compared to last month. If you are going to start blogging, then forget earnings and this is the place you need to target in. Forget Income, Focus Subscribers, this should be your ultimate goal with blogging.
Below are the updated stats till 31st December 2017.
Thankfully, all social channels subscribers increased and the numbers were in positive, I’m so glad for the love.
Overall, a total of 6958 people are following me over social media except the following on my personal facebook account. However the bad thing is that the number of increased people is very less and i need to focus on this to improve.
Social Media Traffic in 2017
Let’s have a look on the traffic I received from Social Media Traffic, in the year 2017.
Major Observations Regarding Social Media Traffic
- Facebook has always been a constant performer and generating top traffic from me, usually it was sending me 90% of total traffic but my latest tweakings at Quora is also helping me.
- Quora came on second, thanks to some efforts of developing a profile and building links there with good answers.
- Stumple upon took the 3rd number.
Now let’s move on to, 2016 vs 2017
Evaluating the performance of this year vs last year helps you finding in either you are going in right direction or wrong, is people do really like what you produce or eventually you are loosing visitors. Let’s evaluate this year performance vs last year :
Critique
- I received 36,665 sessions in 2017 vs 18,582 sessions in 2016, so 97% increase of sessions is great actually.
- While, in 2016 the blog received, 13,534 unique visitors which went to 28,677 unique visitors showing an increase of 111%. Great Going.
- Less page/per sessions means i need to do more inter linking for my content, however I did this alot, still I lost the page per session, this needs more evaluation. What do you think, anyone would like to comment on this?
- Average session per duration is also reduced, however I plan to add more video content on this blog to improve it.
Why my organic traffic increased by 290% this year?
What do you think, in your opinion, what’s your take on this? As a visitor what factors do you think played a major contribution in such an increase.
Personally on my opinion, I would like to discuss some of the factors :
- Social media shares plays huge role in improving your ranking factor.
- Article with references and interlinking is being considered as an authority in Google.
- Structuring your article with bullets, headings, pictures and videos improves user experience and time spent.

Question of the Month?
How did your blog improved over the year? Did you use any special strategy?
Not at all, your best teachers are your readers, learn from them, what do they like and what not, they are the best teachers, in fact thats how i improved and learned over the year.
I keep on evaluating and judging myself and my blog as a user’s perspective to keep on improving and where required, I don’t mind asking my visitors to pass me suggestions. The second strategy is, when you become consistent with any thing, you become more interested about it’s result, performance and other factors and your interest widens in it and that helps you in evaluating yourself as well.
P.S. Do you want me to answer your question in my next month report? Reach me and ask it!
