My Writing Online Goals for February 2026

This was not a good start to the year. I did not hit a single goal for the month of January, but despite this outcome, I still made some progress! I still believe that the year of 2026 is going to be great, and I'm going to stick to that positive attitude!

Blogger: I reached 1,093 views for last month. My goal was 9,300 views, and I only needed about 300ish to hit this goal. I'm still pretty surprised that I even reached 1,000 views, but I think it had to do with the fact that I almost posted a blog every day. I did miss a couple of days, so perhaps there was a possible chance for me to reach this goal, if I hadn't missed a single day!

Medium & Vocal Media: I made a total of 9.67 for both platforms. I made $7.20 on Vocal Media, and $2.47 on Medium. I'm honestly surprised I even made this much on both platforms, since it's not really easy to make anything on either of these sites. I needed $15.33 to reach my goal of $25, but I at least made about $10 in total!

Benable: I made $1.81 last month. I'm glad that I stick to the $3 limit, because it is so tough to make a single penny from this platform, since I only focus on posting on anything that is horror related. At least I made something!

TikTok: I think I only posted 2 videos during the whole month of January. I stayed stuck at 11,800 followers, but at least people continued to watch my horror stories!

Threads: I only got one follower during the month of January. To me, this was an achievement, because this is by far the hardest platform to get a single follower! 

YouTube: I only got a couple of followers for February. I think I only got about 2, and wow, it is definitely hard to get a single follower on this platform! My goal was 1,270, so perhaps I'm going to have to lower that goal for this coming month!

YouTube Public Watch Hours: I reached 51 public watch hours, which means I reached about 8 watch hours in a month. Even though this month was pretty slow, I was still content that I even made it past 5. I was having too much fun with creating videos this month, and for me, it was mostly the experience that I enjoyed!

Now that my losses and wins have been listed…here are my new goals for February.

Blogger: I have now reached 9,057 views for the month of February. I'm now going to try and not miss a day of blogging, and I'm determined to at least hit 9,600 views on Blogger. I think this could work for me for this month!

Medium & Vocal Media: I'm going to continue my goal of $25. Every month can be a different whirlwind, so I think there could one day be a possibility of reaching this goal one day!

Benable: I'll stick with the $3 goal for this site. I shall see when I will start my new streak of making $3 every month!

TikTok: I'm going to still stick with my goal of reaching 12,000 followers. I think I can hit the goal at some point…perhaps if I post more than four times, I will possibly hit my goal!

Threads: 85 followers is still my goal for this month. Getting a single follower can be pretty tough, but I'm determined to reach it!

YouTube: I'm going to lower my goal of gaining followers to 1,260 followers. I got 1,250 so far, and I think there could be a chance of reaching my goal! 

YouTube Public Watch Hours: I'm going to lower this goal to 63 public hours. This is a pretty odd number, but I think I have a higher chance of reaching about 12 public watch hours for the month. I'm planning to post about 4 videos a month, so I guess we shall see what happens!

What are your goals for February?
