    Awesome advise. Measuring sites based on traffic is a mass-marketing tactic that no longer works. Treating visitors as people and building relationships through forums and other social media tools is fast becoming the most effective way to communicate with potential customers and clients.

    Hey Chris

    Thanks for your comment, It's a fact that connecting with your audience will keep them coming back for more as long as your honest and supplying information that you understand better than anyone else. If it's style your passionate about, make the best damn style site out there. If it's a certain type of espresso, make your site specifically about that. And treat your guests with respect.
