You have a good website, you are focused on your product, you work hard at the business and yet your website is not delivering the expected... What went wrong?
Mike Carlson (name changed) had a website that was perfectly in all aspects- it was running well, looked good and it was even on page one for some keywords. Yet he was getting practically no traffic and his conversions were abysmal.
Mike is no exception. There are plenty of entrepreneurs with online businesses who are unsuccessful in attracting traffic.
Mike just failed to plan well.
What Mike planned was that "I will sell this product, target this keyword and have an online shopping cart for 24 hour accessibility"
Mike failed to plan a strategy. He did not plan how to achieve his targets. He just planned what he wanted to do.

In fact he was selling niche products to a generic audience. He did not research and did not plan long [url=http://www.jeremyparendt.com/Barbour-Paris.php]barbour france paris[/url] term He just focused on the present.
