No doubt, the first time you put up a website and follow all of the rules and implement all the methods available to increase traffic flow, nothing happens. Frustrated by the poor results, you give up trying.

In turn, if the website owner has a list, ask to have your link added. This can be the start of your own mailing list, which you can then use for newsletters; product information; and articles, or whatever you find yields the most traffic. The methods you utilize may or may not work at first; however, you must explore every avenue until you find the brass ring. Disappointments will arise, but don't let it discourage you from achieving your goals.
