Things picked up a little bit in January, with a more than 36% increase in traffic to the website. That's still not saying much, as we remain in soft-launch. Here is what progress was made:FinancialsStill no income. The only source of income the site has (for now) is Google AdSense, and there has not been enough traffic (and nobody clicking on links) to bring in any revenue yet.Also no new expenses.Previous Balance: $-22.24January Income: $0January Expenses: $0Total Cash On Hand: $-22.24What We've DoneVery little outwardly visible was done in January, with the only blog post being the December status update.

This is the first progress report for Getting There From Here... and since the site was only brought online on three days ago, there's not much to report yet! Obviously there is still a lot of work to do, but at least we're started!FinancialsNot much to talk about here, as we were only running for the last three days of October and had very little traffic.

Traffic has crept up slowly day after day, which is a good sign, as long as it keeps up.October Income: $0October Expenses: $0Total Cash On Hand: $0What We've DoneIn the first few days, we have set up the basic site structure, added The Plan, set up a blog, and put the forums in place.
