2015 has been an exciting year! The Orthodox Mama first launched at the beginning of April, and I had no idea if anyone would even read it. Much to my delight and surprise, people began to trickle in, and soon a flood of visitors began arriving.

I am interested to see your daily schedule. I just started a blog too and find it hard to find the time to write and everything else. Also, how are you able to see what your most viewed posts are? I have Google Analytics but it doesn’t give me much info.
Hi Alisha! You know, I’ve gotten a few requests for a glimpse into my daily schedule, so I believe I’ll be writing a post on that soon. Since I work outside the home as a teacher, I use my evenings to write. As far as finding your most popular posts, I do have Google Analytics, and I am sure that there is a way to find it on there. However, I also have the Jetpack plug in. I looked under “Posts” and then “Yearly.” That showed me the number of views that each post had starting from the most viewed. I hope that helps. Best of luck on your new blog!
Thanks for the info. I’ll be looking forward to getting to check out your schedule.
