Two months in and still No traffic!
wo months in, two owned domain names, sitting in front of the laptop for over 12 hours a day most days, ignoring my family for what? Well nothing actually, no traffic what so ever only what I have requested through here, and not a dime in revenue. I know I've been told that this is an investment, but come on, even bad investments see a tiny return, this one has shown me nothing but heart ache!! The bills unfortunately won't pay there selves, so its back to the 9 to 5 for me, I've enjoyed the ride, but reality is now restored. Merry Christmas!! My best regards to you all. Glenn.

Hi Glen,i am not sure of the money goals you set to yourself and the targeted time.Though we are different but i believe success does not pile in one day or two.Internet marketing is tricky and all depends with what one is promoting.I have been around for 5 months now and still no sale and i am still persisting knowing that success will come my way one day.All this is to say be patient,keep working on your site i am sure it will happen when you will least be expecting it.All the best of luck and be strong man!
That sucks man I wouldn't give up on your business so quickly... I have felt the same way, and can fully relate to you. The thing is this really does just take time.
You clearly have been working hard and are determined since you've been putting in 12 hour days, but give it time. I've read posts from so many successful guys here and the one thing that really makes them succeed is that they just keep going, even when they are faced with these feelings of giving up.
This post helped me stay motivated and maybe it will help you... it's worth a read. Vegas Here I Come! I'm not trying to convince you to stay, that's your call, but I hate to see someone give up before seeing the fruit of their hard work.
Remember too, how much you have learned since you've been here. I've personally learnt so much in the couple of months I've been here it is crazy. If your not getting traffic, figure out why, ask others, research but most of all give it time.
My thinking is it will take 6-12 months to really see a profit if you are promoting WA, it's a tough niche. Personally I am ok with that. I think at first I wanted everything to happen a bit too quickly but then I realised this just takes time, and that just means its real!
Kyle said this which is awesome: "Every time you think of quitting, there's someone out there that won't, and they will be the one to reap the rewards".. or something like that lol.
I guess it comes down to how bad you want it? If you want it bad enough just keep pushing forward, make yourself. At the same time try not to put too much pressure on yourself, give your business time to grow and keep learning and working at it.
Anyway, you can do this Glenn, believe in yourself!
I think you had unrealistic expectations about what it takes to build a real business with the WA system. Two months? You can make money in two months with network marketing, MLM, and Internet marketing "deals" - but none of those will build a lasting, viable true business, they all eventually dry up on you. I know from 30+ years experience.
I worked my niche site for FIVE months before seeing any significant traffic, and didn't get my first tiny little sale until six months in. Now, after a full year, I have hundreds of visitors daily, double digit product clicks, and a steady flow of sales. Even so, I am not making enough money yet to live on. But it is the tip of the iceberg, letting me know my site is well on track, with steady growth and ever-increasing high Google ranking status. In another year or two, I am confident I will be raking in significant dough, that will only grow and last.
