Best Posts of the year<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>A review of the year&#8217;s top posts with links to them is a common trend everywhere. There are two advantages to doing this. One, the new readers can know what the old posts were. The second is that the older posts get more exposure and more visits through publishing them again. I posted my Best Posts too.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Site_Goals_for_next_year\"><\/span>2. Site Goals for next year<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>New Year is the time to take new resolutions and set new targets. Many bloggers have made their site goals public. Making site goals public is like committing it to your readers. Such posts create more responsibility in the blogger himself and act as a drive to achieve them.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Stats_Analysis_and_Review\"><\/span>3.
