Why sites fail

No patience
Getting visitors to your website is an extremely long process. It can take months or even years before you see any good traffic from search engines. It also takes a very long time to get your visitors to start bookmarking your site or telling their friends about your site. When starting a website, be prepared for the long haul. Otherwise, you might as well not even start because you will only be disappointed.
3 big reasons why updating your website is important

Sites that stay fresh and updated have HUGE advantages over sites that don’t.
1) The first reason is the most obvious: it keeps visitors coming back to see whats new. A site that is never updated will never have repeat visitors because once they read everything there is to read they will just move on… and never come back.
2) Search engines will keep coming back to you! Adding new pages will trigger the search engine robots to come back to your site and index the new content. Sites that are frequently updated are also proven to have higher search engine rankings.
3) If you have an RSS/XML feed (highly recommended that you do), new content will be featured on many of the blog feed readers. If you wanna check out a list of sites to submit your RSS feed to, go here.
