I do not think that it is bad. As long as you did not use black-hat methods, then I would personally say that it is good. Mucho gusto.

On the surface, I would say good.

But then you mentioned Twitter.

When I post something to Twitter, I can attribute about 55 visitors within the first 20 minutes after I post to the bots that scrape Twitter.

Match that against the number of posts you made to Twitter, and it no longer looks as good.

Anyway you look at it that is better than many people manage in their first week.

Although i would suggest trying to get consistant traffic from at least 3-4 different sources, to safeguard your business. With the constant changes online you don't want to be in a position where your only source drys up and your business dies over night.

Still kudos m8. Not bad going.

Is this a joke or are you serious? This statement can dampen his enthusiasm and it s not right.

A venture capitalist will be interested if you have a unique site with up to a 1million hits a month.

I think you are doing well, your blog is neat and tidy just keep updating it regularly and you'll surely start to get a following. Liked your facebook page to keep updated, thought you should possibly push that a bit too as it seemed a fair way down and out of the way. You almost have enough likes to change the url too which will look more professional.

You have a decent enough writing style too so i'm sure if you just stick with it and keep on tweaking you'll hit your dream eventually.

Actually black hat are unethical techniques to get high search rankings such as keyword stuffing, doorway passages, invisible text and the like. Using this techniques may provide short term gains for your site however once you are discovered using them, you will more likely get penalized by the search engines.

500 is good but not if it's junk traffic.

Targeted, interested, buying traffic = high conversions and high conversions = money.

So if you focus on getting targeted traffic that will be interested in your site or offer, then you can start to see money resulting from that traffic.

HI Gonzo,

Be careful with how you approach your traffic on Facebook they will shut your account down if you post into fan pages too much. So keep it spread out, always add content to the forums FIRST and if you don't have it, setup your own fan page so those people can follow you. 500 is good, but how sustainable is it? You will want traffic flow even when you are not online, so start building organic searching into your business model. So you can be out playing around and getting hits on your site, not just when your posting into FB. Good luck!

Thanks

500 visitors good?

If you are getting sales or making money in marketing terms then it will be good...

If you got 500 visitors and didn't make a cent then it will only be good depending on what you are trying to achieve.

Traffic purely for traffic's sake will not normally be good.

w gonzotrucker com thanks everyone im learning so much from this forum.

If you are not doing black hat SEO then it is a very good start. Beside using facebook and Twitter you can also use stumbleupon. It gives huge visitor which facebook and twitter jointly can't. So use it. Good luck.

Hi Gonzo,

Some may say 500 in a week is alright, others might say that it's not enough.

However, for me what's important is how much of that traffic were you able to sign-up to your list.

The reason is because if you didn't sign-up anybody, it's possible that it will be the last time they will visit your site and the marketing opportunity (money making opportunity) will be lost.

If you signed them up to your list you can either invite them to visit the site again or send them related offers and make money from them which is the ultimate goal of getting traffic.

Best regards,

Mary

Sounds like you are off to a promising start...but more importantly, whether you feel it's good or bad or so-so, you have to pat yourself on the back for actually taking action and tracking your results.

That's a heck of a lot more than a lot of folks have been able to do.

So, don't stop and keep up the momentum. If this is targeted traffic and you treat your visitors right, you could begin to see a steady stream of income.

In case people don't know, the term 'black hat' originates and is mostly used to describe the ethical standpoint of a computer hacker, rather than in internet marketing. That term itself originates from western films where bad guys wore black hats and the good guys wore white hats. Later it was obviously used for internet marketing techniques, which were so unethical that they rivaled the usage of the word in black hat hacking.

Just like someone else mentioned, the traffic number isn't necessarily good or bad...it's the fact that you took some solid action to get that traffic. That attitude will be worth more than any amount of traffic you can get right now.

Good job on getting started and doing more than what most will do.

Keep working hard, and build on what you already have done. Track your traffic, see what's working, and keep doing more of that.

As most warriors here stated, that is a good start. If you can reached 500 visitors in your first week, what more if it's your first month, probably that will surely extends the smile on your face, lol. Kidding aside, what you need to do is to continue on what you have been doing and increase the promotion in your social networking sites.
Then again, do not settle on what you have attained at present. If you successfully reached your target, extend the mark of your next target and so on. It's like, you dream to have 1000 visitors on your, let's say, 2nd week, you must simply do your best to attain that mark. And once you attain that mark, you can then increase that mark on your next target, like 1500 visitors on the next week and so on. In that sense, you are always challenging yourself rather than be satisfied on what you gain.

I would simply offer quality and unique content to site visitors. Isn't that why anybody visits a site - unless you pay them to. Write a few articles every month and post them on forums, and sites related to the subject matter you are dealing with. Remember, many big social networking sites, blogposts and article portals offer a nofollow atribute to your link. Some do and some don't. I too am new to all this but i am not interested in 'Get a million hits' hype stuff. Google is an intelligent search engine - almost like a brain. You WILL be offered ways to get 10K hits pm, but these guys are bad news. Just build up an organic faithful following of site visitors. Keep the site updated, add new stuff, free tips, reviews and i believe you will do well.
Good Luck!

I see your using wordpress that is one smart move. One other thing you might want to do is install a plugin called searchterm tagging 2 if your site is found from google or other web search engines the plugin will put a tag on your site showing what search term that was used to find your site. It will help in your rankings. The people who wrote above me are also great at what they do most of them are full time earners on the internet and they do know what they are talking about.

Also look up a person on google his name is Sean Donahoe he is my mentor and he does know what he is talking about when it comes to ranking.

He is an expert in Seo
You might also want to know there are many methods to get your site more visitors
Try also submitting Press releases they work wonders on the search engines.

If you want to ask me personally please send me a PM I will be glad to help you out.

Hi Gonzo, i like your site!.. And actually i even think you might have a chance to make it viral within the "trucker community"!.. I though maybe you could add videos and show different things in your "real trucker life"... I am sure other truckers, and also different people might have a real interest to come back and see your blog's news!...
by the way, you don't need to buy adobe to make an ebook... just do it with word or another text editor, and "convert" it to pdf... as simple as this..
see you... (maybe on the road.. ;-)

First of all... it's a great niche! Truckers are on the road all the time and those with their laptops are sure to find you. Why not write about some of your interesting stories on the road. You are sure to have many. If word gets around... you'll soon be attracting those not in the trucking field, just wanting to know about a truckers life.

I think 500 visitors is awesome for your first week. I suggest you set up an RSS feed for the vistors to get info as soon as u post. Also... I can't remember... did you have an opt-in? Find a great give away... Maybe a report you write on how to get the best fuel economy... or best side roads for trips..... the possibilities are endless!

What kind of information or content will you provide in your newsletters? That's what your visitors would probably like to know before they sign up... If you did mention it then it needs to be more visible... I also notice that your "subscribe" optin box is the 3rd one down on your right. You might what to bring that up to the very top so your visitor sees it as soon as they land on your page. Create a gonzotrucker FREE newsletter image that will grab their attention and increase your sign-up... Remember tons of traffic is useless if it is not targeted traffic...

Anyways, Great job by the way on your site it looks good with great content..

I would think 500 visitors for a first week is excellent, the social networks are a fantastic way to get traffic, simply scale what you are doing and you will continue to see good results

Great job driving 500 visitors. I checked out your blog, it looks pretty good to me. Another thing you could try out to drive more traffic is some video marketing. If you target some low competition keywords I'm sure you could get some more followers and hopefully more sales. Good luck buddy.

for the first time sinse i started this i feel like giving up. 14 hours of work and now im at the end and can not for the life of me figure out how to do it. i paid for my own ebook to test paypal and it did not redirect me to the thank you page. so i must have set it up wrong.

getting 500 visitors first week is really good. What are you doing with that traffic? I checked your blog and it is breaking up in IE 8.

Also plan to convert your visitors into leads for long term profits. As I can see you have no squeeze page added on your blog which you should be doing to boost your conversion and long term income...

Hey gonzotrucker! i have a tool that you may use to make your life easier ^_^

ifttt.com

when you post to your blog, you can setup a trigger to post the title and a link to your twitter and make another one that does the same for your facebook. that way everything is automated! it has several social sites it will do the same thing for.

It's definitely a good start, just make sure to make little changes and pay extra attention to what they do. Trial and error will get you to where you want to be but try not to over do it by making drastic changes as they will be very hard to analyze the changes they made to overall traffic numbers! Good Luck, keep us up to date on your progress!
