Ultimate Blog Challenge Has Been Completed!

 

 

/
 

Today is October 31st and do you know what that means?  You are probably thinking Halloween but I’m thinking it’s the last day of the October Ultimate Blog Challenge!  I completed the challenge by writing at least one blog per day for the month and this is the 4th challenge I participated in and completed this year. It was so much fun, some days I had topics already chosen while other days I took the suggested topic from the UBC host.   So I can officially say the 4th quarter of the  Ultimate Blog Challenge has been completed!

But writing the daily posts wasn’t the only exciting part of this challenge, it was also great to meet so many other wonderful bloggers in the challenge.  Some I have known from previous Ultimate Blog Challenges but I always look forward to meeting bloggers that have just come across this challenge.

I had a good month with over 2000 views and many comments left by my blog readers. Thank you all for viewing, sharing and commenting on my blogs!

I enjoy checking my stats, checking which blogs are the most popular and which blogs get the most comments.

My top 5 of the month are:

 

Long Awaited Surgery Finally Scheduled

This blog was the 4th chapter of my granddaughter’s surgery finally being scheduled and had 111 views.

 

Grandchildren’s 2016 Milestone Year

The 2nd most popular blog was when I wrote about my grandchildren’s milestones and this had 65 views.

 

Before Hurricane Matthew Hit South Carolina

October was the month when Hurricane Matthew went through our area and my blog about the devastation even before the hurricane had 63 views.

 

HURRICANE PREPAREDNESS KIT

The 4th top blog I wrote for the month was about being prepared for a hurricane and this blog received 54 views.

 

Faced With Adversity

Keeping with the hurricane theme, my 5th top post was being faced with adversity.  This blog received 53 views.

I started my blog on Christmas Day 2014 mainly to review products I received. Since then it has evolved into many other categories of lifestyles, family, money saving ideas, low cost, delicious and healthy meals plus other surprise posts. My granddaughter has her own category, Alex's Articles and the latest addition to my blog is my great granddaughter now has her category, Lia's Likings The Baby Blogger! Lia started blogger at 8 months old and she now has a Friday Story Time blog you won't want to miss! I welcome you to join the conversation, ask a question, give a suggestion or leave a comment on any blog post. I hope you enjoy Lia's Likings, she has some great posts that will make you smile!

    Congratulations! I have completed the challenge, too! Usually, I miss one or two days! This time, I finished the entire challenge. I too alternated between using the blogging suggestions and coming up with my own ideas. I am very grateful to my readers. They are all awesome. I’ve been doing this challenge for, I think, at least two years. It’s a great experience and the hosts do a fabulous job. Looking forward to the next one, and I hope that you will participate.

      I actually “found” you from one of the early UBC months and so glad I did! I have enjoyed both your blogs and your beautiful photos! Congratulations on your completion and I’m sure we’ll see each other around in the blogging world! Thanks for visiting Alice.

    I am glad to travel this month together. Keep going! Love your blogs…

  4. It’s been a month! I started a new blog in the middle of the challenge, so tried to share posts from both. Unfortunately, I lost everything on one of the blogs because of the hacker assault on the internet. Thankfully I was able to restore all. It was a challenge to post every day, but got me back into the ‘groove’. I hadn’t blogged for quite some time , before the challenge.

    One of the things I enjoyed as well, was meeting people like you, Martha. You’re a great lady. Hugs.

      You sure have been busy Jane but you did it! The hacker assault was a scary one, but thankfully I didn’t lose any data. Looking forward to continuing to follow you great blogs. I so love your Christmas blogs (that’s my favorite time) So many wonderful new bloggers that I have met are now wonderful friends! So glad I met you Jane!

    Hi Martha,
    It has been wonderful to find you posting here on UBC. I’ll have to get one of those blue badges for my sidebar.
    Any suggestions on the easiest way to do that?
