Creating a sustainable income online did not come instantly for me when I first started out a few years ago. You often hear lots of people touting their success stories of how they made thousands of dollars in just one month.

Whether some of these are true or not I don’t know – but it certainly didn’t happen for me.

However, I could have made my life a whole lot easier by avoiding these mistakes.

1. Too Many Ideas.

The internet is full of opportunities to take a bite at, and my eyes were too big for my belly and I bit off more than I could chew.

I always found myself writing down ideas, researching them, and deciding how to implement the idea, but then never actually implementing the idea because I was already too busy.

Now I just make a very quick note in my ideas folder and leave it at that. When it is time to expand or start a new project – I just open up the ideas folder for inspiration.

When I have the time to poke my head around some of the webmaster and money making forums out there I frequently see two things.

1. People wondering how they can increase traffic to their site.
2. People who don’t have a lot of experience giving other inexperienced people advice on increasing traffic.

This often leads to people following the wrong advice, and then feeding it to other people.

So I’ve decided to compile a list of 65 site traffic & link building techniques.

Getting traffic to your website should not be a problem – it just takes time and effort and it won’t happen if you sit there doing nothing.

65 Traffic Building Techniques:

1. Write something great about your niche and email other bloggers to let them know – there’s a good chance they’ll link to you.
2. Have a signature link in forums that points to your site.
3. Post links to your pages to social bookmarking sites.

The sales funnel approach to marketing is part of a coordinated marketing plan for successfully selling products, which is used by top internet marketers to dominate a niche.  The metaphor of a funnel, with its wide top and narrow bottom, is used to monitor the sales process and seek raving fans that buy repeatedly, providing a constant stream of business.

The top of the funnel captures the “unqualified prospects” – people who might need the service or product, but who have not been introduced to the product yet, whereas at the bottom of the funnel are people who have bought the service or product and willing to buy more.
