I've launched a website for about three weeks ago. I've been working on just building my website till then. (Honestly I'm not really working on it. Because I give it just 2 or 3 hours of my time)Anyway I made a sale within the first week but there is no other sales. I haven't worked on pulling traffic, all my traffic is coming from Google(About 30 unique visitors per day). Am I doing good? Is it normal or do I miss smt? Please help me

    Just keep building your website the money will come... You need to keep writing more content base on whatever keywords you research...

    The money will come... Remember, Google is sensitive, keep it simple by writing long 2000 word articles...

    You want to create other articles to post on your site that targets your primary keyword and interlink within your site...

    Occasionally write on guess blogs

    keep doing this for about 6 months you will see lots of traffic and income.

    Well, I have no experience in this area so I can not give you any specific advice pertaining to this area.
    However, what I can say is that if you already made one sale, then you are obviously doing at least something right. So I suggest that you keep working at it and I am sure that the number of sales that you make will go up eventually.

    6 months is a very long time period for me. I need to see results in another month(At least 200$). But I will try to figure out and work harder. And Victoralexon thank you for your words.

      If you need money that quickly, you might consider being a ghostwriter or something where you can get paid via Paypal.

      The truth is Internet Marketing is not a get rich quick scheme. It takes hard work and time.

      Back when I first started I did massive amount of research before I even posted my first site. But with proper planning and smart keyword research my first site was making me over 300/month within about 2 months.

      IM is a simple thing really: Targeted Traffic + Offer (or Adsense) + Conversion = Profit

      You will hear that line a million times but its true to this day.

      Put in the hard work and time into a successful venue of IM and you will make a fortune.

      Believe me, I'm doing it and you can to, good luck!

    Keep putting more content and expanding your site. Make sure the content is well written and relevant to your niche. Make sure you're doing your keyword research and write articles targeting those keywords. Build backlinks in a slow and steady manner.
    It's a process man.. nothing happens overnight!
    Wish you the best!

    I would say that you are doing quite well, especially since your site isn't even a month old. When you're building a website, traffic take times to build. That's just the way it is. All you can do is continue to publish unique, quality content that provides value to the end user and continue to get backlinks from a variety of sources. Your income will grow once you have more content on your site. Keep doing what you're doing.

    Good luck,
    Joey

    I'm putting 1 or 2 articles per day which are all rewritten by me. All my pages are showing up within the first two pages on their keywords. Although these good things the bounce rate is always high such as %70-80 and the avarage visit long is about 45 sec. I don't understand why this is happening. But I'm sure that I will fix this. I've been searching SEO for 2 years and as far as I see I'm doing well for this. The matter is sales and this is because of being newbie on the niche. People don't know about me then why do they trust me on buying laptops? Thank you guys I will work on my site and never give up till seeing results. I'm sure this day is coming soon.

      With a bounce rate that high and an average visit time of 45 seconds means only one thing:

      The people visiting your site are not finding what they are looking for

      Did you make sure the keywords you are targeting are buyer keywords?

      If you are already ranking in the top 2 SERPS it makes me think your keywords are either: low volume or poor keywords

      I'm going to assume your in a laptop niche as you mentioned that in your post, when you are targeting a keyword you have to think:

      "If I just typed searched for this keyword, would I be looking for something to buy?"

      If the answer is no, STAY AWAY from that keyword.

      Keep practicing and never stop learning, patience and optimism are the key to success in IM.

      To add on to the other warriors here suggesting adding content (which I totally agree ... just make sure it's great content), put in some time everyday to generate some backlinks to your site.

      Work to get high quality links from RELEVANT sites. You can do this by posting genuine comments in related blogs, participating actively in forums with your link in the signature etc.

      Just 20 ~ 30 minutes a day will do. Forget automation software or services. It'll do you more harm than good.

      Be consistent, and the magic will happen. This will be what brings you non-stop and sustained traffic from the search engines in the long run.

      Hope this helps!
