Increased web traffic anyone?

I’ve been staring at this graph for the last couple of hours. I’ve actually been staring at it for some time longer than that. I am just amazed at the growth in traffic since the beginning of the year.
I hadn’t realized the amount of growth that I’ve seen in traffic to that site. Look at the growth from January to now, mid-August:
My total traffic may be a little down for the month of August, but that’s because I stopped doing 2 things that were killing my bandwidth. I think I alluded to this in a previous post when I asked “is there such a thing as too much traffic?” Did I mention that it was all free traffic?
I plan on applying those same traffic generating principles on this site. I think that once I have it all proven, and documented, that it will make a nice report to give away for free, or close to free.
I’m kicking the internet marketing efforts into higher gear, so look for a newsletter with some traffic generation tips in it as well as other information to come soon!

A good foundation

Allow me to get a little bit religious with you here. I promise this won’t hurt.
Last night, I went to my small group meeting. My church, is not a mega church, but it’s growing in size. Two of the three pillars of the church, are connecting people with God and connecting people with each other. So, we have small groups that meet at someone’s house every week so we can connect with each other. We get together and study a biblical principle of some kind, have dinner and just hang out.
The topic of study last night, was foundations. Specifically, we were talking about having a strong foundation and about making God the foundation of your life. We talked about how if your foundation is weak, anything that you build on top of it will be shaky and weak. When a storm comes, the structure will not be able to weather the storm.
I’ll step away from the religious theme for now. Here’s the point of all this.
It’s not hard to make money online. It’s not rocket science, or brain surgery.
It’s not easy to make money online either. It will take work, but it’s not hard work, like working in the sun for 10 hours a day building houses or building freeway overpasses. It will take work. It will take laying a strong foundation. Your online business, will only grow as big and as strong as it’s foundation. You should also treat it like a business, not a hobby, unless you only want a hobby. By the way, there’s nothing wrong with having a hobby that pays you some money every so often.
Building a strong foundation takes time, it takes commitment and it takes vision. Take the time to build the foundation, then build upon that.
