Hi guys, I need your help. I've been in this business (celebrities to be exact) since 2000, but I've been out for 2 years. Now I'm working on my come-back, but it's hurting more than I hoped for.
When I launched my site back in 2000 I was a huge amateur, I did not know what I was doing. But I had success from day one. My traffic boosted out of nothing and cash started flowing in.
The past years I've been working several projects such as hosting, scripting and my general knowledge about the business has gone up from zero to decent.
Well, almost two weeks ago my site was ready to rock 'n roll so I started building traffic. As you can see it's a high quality content site (not a tgp), with hardly any blind links. All nonblindlinks automatically change positions in order to divide the traffic equally. I use TM3 for this. It all works like a charm, BUT I've got one frustrating problem:
MY PRODUCTIVITY SUCKS BIG TIME! (i.e. productivity at _my_ site)
It's not even approaching 1 (or 100%), and as a result my traffic hardly increases.
Now I would like to ask you guys to take a look (see sig) and tell me what could be a reason for this.
The top of the mainpage is completely jammed with outlinks: textlinks with description, thumbnails, a blind link. At the top of my content pages there's the 5 trades that owe most again.
A surfer will notice that all my links lead to sites that have content and are not misleading, plus that the description I have written about them is correct. So with this said, one would expect a surfer to click a lot right? He knows I'm not messing with him!
But well, that's not happening. Why not?
