Build your own online network
There are many ways in witch you can build your online network. Social media sites, services, mail, websites, blogs and many more.
I just started using Linkedin the other day, and found a whole bunch of my clients on there. With Linked in you can find other businesses, share yours and contact people.
I use Gmail, and find that the Chat feature is great when your clients need to chat to you and ask you something. It saves money and makes it simple to communicate with them. And the whole conversation gets saved.
Facebook is also a very good place for you to start building an online network. Create a group, Invite people and post on there whats happening with you/your company.
Technorati, digg, stuble all those social media sites create opportunity to make contacts and share your site/blog/company with people. Sign up to some of them and connect to the world.
If you are interested in following me on facebook, Join my group.
So close, but no Target met.
Gitui.com is a fairly new blog. Its been going on since early this year. I have only now had a better flow of traffic on the blog. People are only starting to find it now.
Yesterday I set out to get a 100 people to my blog. I was so very close.
I think that its quite important to set goals and try to meet them. Not to be unrealistic. Be within reason. Yes, its dissapointing when you don’t meet it, but it feels so great when you do. If you get very close its gives you persaverence. So I’m going to set out to get my 100 visitors. meet my goal.
Maybe you can help?
Link Exchanges
Links play a very import role with the sucess of your website on the internet. Without links, it would be very difficult to navigate around the internet. We would have to manually enter the new URL’s every time we want to view something different.
Wouldn’t that be a pain?

What kind of visitor are you?
I visit alot of blogs during the day. Some of them I hang around for a while, others I look at and leave quickly. Today I started thinking, “What kind of visitor am I.”
You get kind of visitors:
1. The Fly by visitor.
This is a kind of visitor that comes to your site, takes one look at it, and moves on. They generally are not all that interested in what you have to say and what you have on your Site/blog.
When I come across a blog about Growing vegetables, I leave quite quickly. I have no Interest in Growing stuff.
2. The Click Happy visitor
These visitor generally don’t stay very long, they click more than the minutes they stay. This is Ok, They are interested in what you have to say, but not really into reading what you wrote.
3. The comment Friendly visitor
These visitors love leaving comments. They like to tell you what is on their mind. Their comments might not always be what you want it to be, but they will comment on it. Some of them might leave comments like “nice post” or something simmilair to that. Its not really worth much, but it still counts.
4. The interested visitor
These Visitors are great! They are actually really interested in what you have to say. They might be visitors that came from search engines or are subscribed to your RSS feeds. This means they are looking for what you have written. These people also like leaving comments. Their comments are more constuctive and worth something. They might be questions, and they love for you to answer those Questions.
So tell me, what kind of visitor are you? What are you interested in?
Any Web Traffic Is Good Traffic
I was doing some experimental “testing” with Blog Exsplosion. A traffic Generating site.
I’ve come to the conclusion: Any traffic is good traffic. Blog Explosion’s visitors stay about 30 to 60 seconds. So that’s not really all that great. On the flip side though, My rankings have gone up on amatomu, and I get alot more exposure than I normally would.
The same goes for Stumbleupon users, they generally don’t stay all that long, the have a quick glance at your blog and off they go. The good thing about Stumbleupon users, they like pressing the thumbs up button. Witch is really great.
The Visitors that come accross your blog and stay for a while generally end up coming back. They are great. The leave comments, and actually read what you have written.
So I would safely say: Any Traffic is good traffic, or, No traffic is bad traffic.
