Excellent post on Aaron’s SEOBook blog about the importance of monetization –
I think that limited $300 / month revenue figure is a great example of why it is worth worrying about more than just pageviews. SEO is just one piece of the puzzle, and usually most sites have big obvious on site gains that could be pursued long before you look to invest heavily in increasing traffic.
Unfortunately, in the press of day to day work on your sites, it’s easy to forget that however wonderful as it is to increase your page views, you need to do something with that traffic — specifically, you need to SELL something.
(I’m as guilty of focusing on page views as everyone else: I don’t focus on sales either. So here we go if you’re reading this PLEASE bookmark my site and contact me if you need a copywriter. :-))
You should also bookmark Aaron’s blog and read his excellent SEO Book.
