Yes, your hosting will play a big part of your website/blog availability and the ability of your site to handle a big influx of visitors. Some of the other things that you want to focus on are:

- Be sure that you are not using too many plugins. Each WordPress plugin that you install chews up more of the CPU and memory on your host's servers. Try to implement as many features without the use of plugins as possible.
- Make sure that your images are well optimized for the internet. Smaller image files, or even better the use of image sprites will aid in the quick loading of your site.
- Minify and optimize your CSS files. Be sure not to over qualify your CSS, use efficient CSS selectors.
- Minify and optimize your JS files. Be sure not to use multiple JS libraries (JQuery, MooTools, etc). Choose one and try to find plugins that support your library of choice.
- Enable browser cache & GZIP in Apache with .htaccess - this will make sure that your server isn't working so hard so that you will be able to accommodate more visitors.

Absolutely correct.. The search engines are not people that are looking to consume the content that you create. There is nothing that you can teach or inform a piece of software. People are and always will be the intended target of your writing. You must make sure that you write to them.

Sure strategic keyword placement and effective titles and image alt tags are going to be in your strategy in order to bring the people to your site, but if that is all that you focus on, then you will not be able to keep the readers intrigued so that they come back to read more of your articles.

Couldn't agree with you more, Alex! There are so many people looking for the quick buck, not willing to do what it takes to succeed. There are so many websites out there, each vying for your attention. But, without the hard work and quality content, what reason do the readers have to keep coming back?

There are some people that expect that once you put up a website all you have to do is sit back and count the money coming into their bank accounts. We've all seen it before. There are a lot of big promises made by unscrupulous so called Internet experts who write "HOWTO" articles that lead people to believe that all they have to do is put up a website or blog and you can become rich. What they don't touch on is the amount of work and effort that has to go into making sure that there is a continued reason for your website visitors to keep coming back to the site.

There is no magic formula, nor is there an easy, sure-fire method for generating tons of repeat traffic. It's all about the continued hard work that you are willing to put in to make sure that your project succeeds.

Hi Onibalusi,

I couldn't agree with you more. It's one thing to diversify and expand once you have already become successful with the one blog, but trying to focus on more than one blog will really dilute the quality and effectiveness of your efforts. Many people warn about "putting all your eggs in one basket"... In response to this I ask, how many baskets can one chicken sit on?

Keep up the good work.

That's correct. Think of it in terms of support. When a free site goes down, do you have any recourse to get the free hosting provider to fix anything for you? The answer, of course, is no. It is a free service that you do not pay for. If the service never comes back up you are out a website.

With a paid hosting site, on the other hand, you are paying for a service that is contractually obligated to be available for you. Hence, the staff of the paid hosting service will be more likely to work with you to make sure that you have the best possible experience with your hosting account. A happy customer is the best salesperson.

The Internet is definitely a fast-paced ever-changing environment... definitely not a place for those afraid of change :p

It takes embracing the ever changing reality that is Internet Marketing that is going to be the winner. Over time, if you are on the fore-front of the changes you will begin to make a lot of money.
