This tip is a simple one… but its very important. Its about a lesson I’ve learned the hard way and continue to learn to this day. If there is one thing newbies should learn it is this skill.
You can learn all the ways to make money there is to know about Clickbank, affiliate programs, building a list, great copywriting, keywords, Ebay, Craigslist, picking a niche, and pay per click and it all won’t mean a thing unless you learn this one skill.
What is that skill? It’s TRAFFIC
You can have the prettiest, greatest website known to man with the best copywriting and it won’t make a dime unless you get website traffic. In this business the saying goes “build it and they won’t come”. Without traffic you probably won’t make a dime – no matter how great your website is.
Everyone trys to teach you how to “monetize” your site and how important great copywriting is. They are important but in the end they mean nothing without traffic. This is the truth…the worst looking website known to man that gets traffic will make more money than the prettiest well constructed site that gets no traffic.
Newbies, learn everything you can about driving traffic. Everything. Its the most valuable commodity. Even if all you do is drive targeted traffic to an affiliate link, you will make money. Traffic does indeed trump everything else.
