I also like to see traffic growth, see my posts get votes on sphinn, inbound links, ratings on technorati etc. I haven’t monetized yet so my main factor is my RSS subscriber number.

Then measure it up with the cash you got compared to the money you got from your day job to see if your blog is successful? Well when you look at it that way, it seems like you and the top 1 percentile have taken away all the money. :P So basically what you are saying is that use Alexa Ranking (traffic), Google’s PR (quality) and FeedBurner statistics (RSS).

Whether it is 15 more subcribers or 10% earnings increase a goal allows you to form a plan. You can then lay out tangible steps towards achieving those goals. When you surpass goals you have set yourself, then you now for sure you are succeeding! That is why I keep saying it is so important to set goals.

I use WP Stats for the overview and quick info and Google for details. As a blog ages, Analytics becomes even more important because it identifies how people are finding you in search. I'd also agree that RSS usage is related a lot to the niche and doesn't necessarily match traffic. For example, OpTempo, which is only 2 weeks old, has more subscribers than my software development blog which has about 10 times the traffic.

Google Analytics and some other counters basically will tell you everything about your visitors. You will just need to take those who stayed for more than one minute into account and ignore those staying for less than 10 seconds.
