Back In The Saddle

April 17th, 2008

NCN

We are home with the new baby. She’s doing so well and I want to thank all of you who responded with ‘well wishes’ and prayers. My wife and I took her for her first checkup today and she is a healthy, happy baby girl. My mother-in-law is staying with us this week, helping with the baby and our other two kids. Big sister and big brother love baby number three and are enjoying showing her pictures to their classmates.

I am ready to get back to blogging about personal finance -

I’ve already started to publish updates over at No Credit Needed Network. I am about 1 week behind. Updated charts will be published, every hour, around the clock, until I catchup.

I’m moving forward with my weight loss, over at No. Calories Needed.

Friday morning, I’ll release a new episode of the No Credit Needed Podcast.

I want to thank you all for your patience, as I work blogging into our new 3-kid household. I love writing about personal finance and I have a new series of posts that I think you will really enjoy. Over the next few weeks, I have several topics to write about – including how the new baby changes our budget, increasing our life insurance coverage, and why I decided not to sell our old car.

Again, I want to thank all of you who left comments, wrote guest posts, or sent emails. We are truly blessed and we have so enjoyed the last few days.

Inside Baseball: Analyzing My Site’s Traffic

March 31st, 2008

NCN

I usually refrain from ‘blogging about blogging’, but March has been a banner month for No Credit Needed. As you can see from the graphic in the right-hand column, No Credit Needed now has more than 3000 subscribers. Traffic to the site also reached an all-time high. So, I wanted to take an opportunity to thank those sites that sent traffic my way.

Upgrading Site

March 27th, 2008

NCN

I’m in the process of upgrading the software that manages all of my websites. If you see anything that looks a little quirky – I’m working on it. Hopefully, I’ll have everything looking ‘just right’ in a few hours. Thanks for your patience.

Basically, you visit the StumbleUpon website, add the StumbleUpon bar to your browser, and start ‘Stumbling’. You can set up a profile for your favorite types of sites – and StumbleUpon will ‘guide’ you to sites, based on your profile settings.

By the way, if you ever see a post that you like here at No Credit Needed – feel free to ‘Stumble It’. I’ll get a web-traffic boost, you’ll help share the debt-free message with the world, and we’ll both feel great!
