Is Productivity Popular?

By Keith

Umm, yeah.

So, I’m not a huge stats geek or anything but I’ve just done my monthly check of my sites and was absolutely astonished. See, I’ve been running this fairly well read and trafficked site for about 3 1/2 years now and it’s only taken To-done around 5 months to over take it. I’ve got about double the subscribed readership (who are like, “thanks for the useless post dude”, right now) and I’ve almost crept up to the same spot as far as incoming links on Technorati.

Considering the timeframe, that is f’n unreal.

Since I didn’t really expect anything more out of this site than a simple place for me to work out and share my ideas in regards to GTD and work/life balance, I’m pretty impressed. I’m very, very glad that people out there are getting something out of this site and I fully plan to keep it going as it has been.

So, thanks for the continued interest y’all!

    Well, I certainly enjoy what is put on this blog. I only have 4 RSS feeds, and this is one of them. Keep up the great work.

    ShanMac — Thanks!

    Philip — I don’t know to be honest. Like I say, I don’t pay very close attention to the stats. I’m sure it didn’t hurt! ;0)

  3. dont know how i found it. was procrastinating :)
    haha.

  4. I found your site a couple of days ago through another site which I can’t remember now for some reason. The link pointed to your article “How I learned to stop worrying and love my schedule”, and after reading it I was hooked!

    I really like your writing style and your seem to take up really interesting topics most of the time. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and ideas, and keep it up!

    Its great having your RSS feed of articles pop up every once in a while so I can keep up with the play but not get swamped with too much new info. :)
    Luv ya work.

    I could repeat others: it is in front page on My Yahoo! where I have few rss. This article “How I learned to stop worrying and love my schedule” was also the first I read, I think so. I like the way you write and people you invite, too. The information is useful. Plus, the comments are also interesting, and the visual clean and different from others. Love it! Thanks!

  7. Slacking popular?

    Most of us probably already read the To-Done article Is Productivity Popular? Bottom line is that these are the times of GTD (Getting Things Done) and lifehacks – And productivity seems to be more popular than ever.
    What about slacking? I asked a …

  8. This website deserves the success. It is certainly inspiration for my own website.

  9. Hi Keith, I am not sure how I found your site this weekend, but it was through someone who referenced an article or two on your blog (I’ve got a blog, too– on organizing and productivity.) I use e-mail subscriptions and not really an RSS reader. I do this because the majority of my readers are not “bloggers,” only clients or prospects who need information and I wanted an easy way to deliver content. You may want to consider using Feedblitz as a sub option– check out a post on additional ways to send/receive blog updates.

  10. The reason behind To-Done’s instant popularity is it’s simplicity. It covers information on personal productivity, work/life balance and getting things done which one generally may not find very often online. The articles are associated with our day-to-day life and invite personal inputs from many.
