Leo, you’ve reached so many in such a short time frame.
What would you attribute your success in building so much traffic so quickly to?
There is no question your articles are helpful, interesting and relevant but that doesn’t always translate into traffic.

1) Great writing
2) Great topics
3) Useful content
4) Leo does a lot of freelance writing
This is probably the secret to Leo’s success. Good work with the 4000RSS in one month. Continue the great job!

Thanks for the positive feedback, guys! And, as a fan of Gretchen’s site, I’m especially honored by her compliment.
ZHereford, I don’t really have any secrets other than trying to put out the most useful content I can, every day … that and writing catchy headlines. ;)

4000 in one month… wow.
I became a new reader in May. My favourite post was ‘How to be a Great Dad’. My little guy is only 3 months old so it’s all pretty new to me.
