240,000 knols published in the First year on the Knol Platform

250,000 knols will be published in the first year (2008-09)
Knol administrators officially declared that 100,000 knols are written so far in less than 6 months.

Based on the information, Krishan Maggon, a knoller (knol authors) made an estimate that 250,000 knols will be published in the first year.

I made the above entry on 30.1.2009.

Congrats Krishan Maggon for making the estimate and raising the spirits of knol authors during uncertain times.

Now once again Krishan Maggon provide the estimate for actual number of knols posted on Knol Metrics Knol.

My estimate for the next year based on comparative metrics is that 750,000 knols will be published during the second year. A logical break up is that existing knol authors write 375,000 knols and new authors who register during the second year write 375,000 knols. Actually I feel the number of knols estimated for new authors s low and there is likely to be a positive surprise in number of knols written.

Goal of Knol in Second year

Goal of Knol: Knol Authors 100,000 - Knols 1 million - Top 100 Website

Knol and wikipedia

Knol authors need to do a lot of promotion. The google name will not take them anywhere unless they put in efforts to make their articles popular.

In the blogosphere, knol authors are not making any substantial noise. During the last 12 hours there are only around 20 blogs discussing knol and there are 1000 blogs mentioning wikipedia.

IIT JEE 2011 Study Plan

Based on the experience I had with my child, I think it is important to have a study plan right from the day one of the preparation. That will give you an idea of the work involved in learning for a slot in the top 5000 students of India at this point in time. It is good that more and more persons are trying to prove their capability in this examination. Even if someone does not get a rank in this examination, his determination and effort to succeed will stay with him throughout his life and some of the persons may gain in ranking subsequently even though they may not get the rank now.

Life give more chances to prove your worth, and therefore even if you do not succeed at one chance, you need not give up. You can try for another chance.

I prepared study plans for two years 2009-10 (XI portion) and 2010-11(XII portion) and published them in a blog IIT JEE 2011. The physics plan of the 2009-10 can be accessed from

26 steps to 15k page views a Day and $2000 a Month

http://webkew.blogspot.com/2005/06/15000-page-views-per-day.html

The above post from webkew says that you can build a site that gives 3000 visitors per day. If it is a good site and if each visitor visits 4 to 5 pages, 15,000 page views a day is the possible number.

This also implies 100,000 visitors per month and that will make you in the top 100,000 sites on alexa.

This may give you (if you make $5 cpm) $2000 per month. The article says you can make a page per day with 2 hours per day effort, and therefore with 730 hours of effort per year you can make $24,000 per year or $32 per hour.

Is it easy? No, very difficult. Is it worth trying? Yes

What type of skills are needed for it?

Give your ideas
