Succeeding Online is not Rocket Science

Once you have a website established, there are two steps to succeeding.
Step 1 - Getting traffic to your website.
Let's face it. It is difficult to get people to visit your website.
Who are we kidding? There are millions or web sites and agazillion web pages out there!
Does that mean it is impossible?
Of course not!
There are some simple strategies you can implement to get both free and paid traffic to your web site. And most people don't do these things. It's not rocket science. It's just a matter of doing what works. You can get traffic to your website through google adwords, yahoo, US free ads or by writing articles and submitting them to article directories like ezinearticles.com
Once you do have traffic to your web site, the next step is...

Step 2 - Converting your traffic
It's one thing to have visitors to your site.
It's another to make that visitor a customer.
So how you make more out of what you have right now?
The fact is that human behavior determines whether people buy ornot. All successful site owners know this.
In fact, understanding human behavior is the biggest factor every"A" list marketer uses to get people taking action.
The problem is this. It takes a long time to figure this stuff out on your own. You've got to make all the mistakes before you get a good handle on it.
But there are standard principles that work on your sales letters and opt-in pages.
Again, it's not rocket science! It's just a matter of doing what works.
Just follow one or two successful internet marketers regularly and watch what they are doing to promote their online business and copy their activities. That's it.
