Disaster #19. Skidding Wildly Off The Road Because Of Bald Tires
If you don't have enough friction or conviction in your website then you will end up totally careering off the road. You need to be determined, committed and totally convinced that your website and its goals are true to who you are as a person.
Think I'm being wishy-washy here? Let me tell you - if you aren't totally passionate about the subject matter and overall mission of your website that it will show in your copy.
Also, whenever you face challenges with traffic or anything else then you are not going to have what it takes to continue. You will not have enough friction to stay on the road towards success!
Disaster #20. Caught Dangerously Tailgating
Tailgating is when you follow the volatile hot trends of search engine optimization or traffic generation methods, rather than adapting the long-term strategy of developing quality content.
If the people you're tailgating or following closely behind with these hot trends and new borderline acceptable techniques actually end up crashing and burning, then you're going to crash right into the back of them. Hence the phrase tailgating.
So be your own manager of traffic. Don't be tempted to start tailgating the latest hot trend or new killer technique just because everybody's talking about it. It's easy to forget that there are still traffic techniques available that are just as effective now as they were one, two, and even five years ago.
So there you have it. You now know the main traffic disasters to avoid. I hope this information has been useful to you. Although you're now armed with what you shouldn't do, I'm sure you'll still need some further information on what you should do.
Disaster #21. Falling Asleep At The Wheel
You thought I said there were only 20 Traffic Disasters? Well this last one - Falling Asleep At The Wheel - is the BIGGEST killer of them all.
You can easily get caught out thinking that you know all there is to know about traffic or that you know enough to get by. But meantime - other people are over taking you all the time as they perfect new Web Traffic 2.0 methods.
You cannot afford just to rely on two or three different traffic methods. What you learned about traffic six months ago is no longer relevant.
"You must not fall asleep at the wheel - you must stay ahead of the competition by learning the best and most advanced traffic techniques!"
That's why I've created a powerful series of how-to videos that show you step-by-step how to generate masses of traffic from virtually any source you can think of. I've created these videos from my 12 years' experience online and they include lots of traditional methods, some new totally undiscovered methods, and also some methods that are so off-the-wall you won't believe how effective they are.
The big thing with traffic is that there is no one big thing for traffic.
You need to be using multiple sources in parallel with one another. If you go where everyone else is you're going to be splitting a small piece of the pie. However, if you employ some of the techniques that I show you in the videos, there's next to no competition in these areas and you're going to get a large slice of what is sometimes an even larger pie.
I wish you all the very best for you in your traffic endeavors - all I ask of you is that you be honest to yourself and continue to learn all the time. The more knowledge about traffic that you arm yourself with - the further and quicker you will travel!
