Since posting my 2005 traffic figures recently, I’ve received many questions about how I was able to start  this web site from scratch and build its traffic to over 700,000  visitors per month (Jan 2006 projection) in about 15 months – without  spending any money on marketing or promotion.  Building a high-traffic  web site was my intention from the very beginning, so I don’t think this  result was accidental.
My traffic-building strategy isn’t based on tricks or techniques that  will go out of style.  It’s mainly about providing genuine value and  letting word of mouth do the rest.  Sadly, this makes me something of a  contrarian today, since I happen to disagree with much of what I’ve seen  written about traffic-building elsewhere.  I do virtually no marketing  for this site at all.  My visitors do it for me, not because I trick  them into doing it but simply because they want to.
Here are 10 of my best suggestions for building a high traffic web site:
1. Create valuable content.
Is your content worthy of being read by millions of people?  Remember  that the purpose of content is to provide value to others.  Do you  provide genuine value, and is it the best you’re capable of providing?
When I sit down to write, I sometimes imagine myself standing on an  outdoor concert stage before an audience of a million people.  Then I  ask myself, “What shall I say to this audience of fellow human  beings?”  If a million people each spend five minutes on this site,  that’s nearly 10 person-years total.  I do my best to make my writing  worthy of this differential.  I don’t always succeed, but this is the  mindset that helps me create strong content.
Think about the effect you want your writing to have on people.   Since I write about personal growth, I want my writing to change people  for the better.  I want to expand people’s thinking, to raise their  consciousness, and to help them eliminate fear from their lives.  If my  writing doesn’t change people’s thinking, actions, or awareness, then my  value isn’t being transferred well enough.
When you focus on providing real value instead of churning out  disposable content, your readers will notice.  And they’ll refer others  to your site – in droves.  I typically see at least 10 new links to my  site appearing each day (mostly via trackbacks but also via vanity  feeds).  I’m not going out and requesting those links – other bloggers  just provide them, usually because they’re commenting on something I’ve  written.  Many fellow bloggers have also honored StevePavlina.com with a  general recommendation for the entire site, not just links to  my individual blog posts.  It’s wonderful to see that kind of feedback.
Strong content is universally valued.  It’s hard work to create it,  but in the long run it generates lots of long-term referral traffic.   I’d rather write one article I’m really proud of than 25 smaller posts.   It’s been my experience that the best articles I write will outperform  all the forgettable little posts I’ve made.  Quality is more important  than quantity.  Quantity without quality, however, is easier, which is  one reason so many people use that strategy.  Ultimately, however, the  Internet already contains more quantity than any one of us can absorb in  our lifetimes, but there will always be a place for good quality  content that stands out from the crowd.
If you have nothing of genuine value to offer to a large audience,  then you have no need of a high-traffic web site.  And if there’s no  need for it, you probably won’t get it.  Each time you write, focus on  creating the best content you can.  You’ll get better as you go along,  but always do your best.  I’ve written some 2000-word articles and then  deleted them without posting them because I didn’t feel they were good  enough.
2. Create original content.
Virtually everything on this site is my own original content.  I  rarely post blog entries that merely link to what others are writing.   It takes more effort to produce original content, but it’s my preferred  long-term strategy.  I have no interest in creating a personal  development portal to other sites.  I want this site to be a final  destination, not a middleman.
Consequently, when people arrive here, they often stick around for a  while.  Chances are good that if you like one of my articles, you may  enjoy others.  This site now has hundreds of them to choose from.  You  can visit the articles section to read my (longer) feature articles or the blog archives to see an easy-to-navigate list of all my blog entries since the site launched.
Yes, there’s a lot to read on this site, more than most people can  read in a day, but there’s also a lot of value (see rule #1).  Some  people have told me they’ve read for many hours straight, and they leave  as different people.  I think anyone who reads this site for several  hours straight is going to experience a shift in awareness.  When you  read a lot of dense, original content from a single person, it’s going  to have an impact on you.  And this content is written with the  intention to help you grow.
Although I’m not big on competing with others, it’s hard to compete  with an original content site.  Anyone can start their own personal  development web site, but the flavor of this site is unique simply  because no one else has had the exact same experiences as me.
While I think sites that mainly post content from others have the  potential to build traffic faster in the beginning, I think original  content sites have an easier time keeping their traffic, which makes for  a more solid, long-term foundation.  Not everyone is going to like my  work, but for those that do, there’s no substitute.
3. Create timeless content.
While I do occasionally write about time-bound events, the majority  of my content is intended to be timeless.  I’m aware that anything I  write today may still be read by people even after I’m dead.  People  still quote Aristotle today because his ideas have timeless value, even  though he’s been dead for about 2300 years.  I think about how my work  might influence future generations in addition to my own.  What advice  shall I pass on to my great grandchildren?
I tend to ignore fads and current events in my writing.  Wars,  natural disasters, and corrupt politicians have been with us for  thousands of years.  There are plenty of others who are compelled to  write about those things, so I’ll leave that coverage to them.
Will the content you’re creating today still be providing real value in the year 2010?  2100?  4000?
Writing for future generations helps me cut through the fluff and  stay focused on the core of my message, which is to help people grow.   As long as there are people (even if our bodies are no longer strictly  biological), there will be the opportunity for growth, so there’s a  chance that at least some of what I’m creating today will still have  relevance.  And if I can write something that will be relevant to future  generations, then it will certainly be relevant and meaningful today.
In terms of traffic building, timeless content connects with people  at a deeper level than time-bound content.  The latter is meant to be  forgotten, while the former is meant to be remembered.  We forget  yesterday’s news, but we remember those things that have meaning to us.   So I strive to write about meanings instead of happenings.
Even though we’re conditioned to believe that news and current events  are important, in the grand scheme of things, most of what’s covered by  the media is trivial and irrelevant.  Very little of today’s news will  even be remembered next week, let alone a hundred years from now.   Certainly some events are important, but at least 99% of what the media  covers is irrelevant fluff when viewed against the backdrop of human  history.
Ignore the fluff, and focus on building something with the potential to endure.  Write for your children and grandchildren.
4. Write for human beings first, computers second.
A lot has been written about the optimal strategies for strong search  engine rankings in terms of posting frequency and post length.  But I  largely ignore that advice because I write for human beings, not  computers.
I write when I have something meaningful to say, and I write as much  as it takes to say it.  On average I post about five times per week, but  I have no set quota.  I also write much longer entries than most  bloggers.  No one has ever accused me of being too brief.  My typical  blog entry is about 1500-2000 words, and some (like this one) are much  longer.  Many successful bloggers would recommend I write shorter  entries (250-750 words) and post more frequently (20x per week), since  that creates more search engine seeds for the same amount of writing.   And while I agree with them that such a strategy would generate more  search engine traffic, I’m not going to take their advice.  To do  so would interfere too much with my strategy of delivering genuine  value and creating timeless content.  I have no interest in cranking out  small chunks of disposable content just to please a computer.  Anyone  can print out an article to read later if they don’t have time to read  it now and if the subject is of genuine interest to them.  Part of the  reason I write longer articles is that even though fewer people will  take the time to read them, for those that do the articles are usually  much more impactful.
Because of these decisions, my search engine traffic is fairly low  compared to other bloggers.  Google is my #1 referrer, but it accounts  for less than 1.5% of my total traffic.  My traffic is extremely  decentralized.  The vast majority of it comes from links on thousands  of other web sites and from direct requests.  Ultimately, my traffic  grows because people tell other people about this site, either online or  offline.  I’ve also done very well with social bookmarking sites like  del.icio.us, digg.com, and reddit.com because they’re based on personal  recommendations.  I’ve probably had about a dozen articles hit the  del.icio.us popular list within the past year, definitely more than my  fair share.
I prefer this traffic-building strategy because it leaves me less  vulnerable to shifts in technology.  I figure that Google  ultimately wants to make it easy for its visitors to find valuable  content, so my current strategy should be in alignment with Google’s  long-term strategy.  My feeling is that Google would be well-served by  sending more of its traffic here.  But that alignment simply arises from  my focus on providing value first and foremost.
5. Know why you want a high-traffic site.
I write because my purpose in life is to help people become more  conscious and aware – to grow as human beings.  I don’t have a  separate job or career other than this.  Because my work is driven by  this purpose, I have a compelling reason to build a high-traffic web  site, one that aligns with my deepest personal values.  More web traffic  means I can have a bigger impact by reaching more people.  And over the  course of the next few decades, this influence has the potential to  create a positive change that might alter the future direction of human  civilization.  Most significantly, I want to help humanity move past  fear and for us to stop relating to each other through the mechanisms of  fear.  If I fail, I fail.  But I’m not giving up no matter how tough it  gets.
Those are big stakes, and it might sound like I’m exaggerating, but  this is the level at which I think about my work today.  Everything else  I do, including building a high traffic web site, is simply a means to  that end.  Today I’m just planting seeds, and most of them haven’t even  sprouted yet.  A high traffic web site is just one of the sprouts that  came about as a result of pursuing the purpose that drives me.  But it  is not an end in itself.
What will you do if you succeed in building a high-traffic web site?   If you someday find yourself in the privileged position of being able  to influence millions of people, what will you say to them?  Will you  honor and respect this position by using it as a channel to serve the  highest good of all, or will you throw that opportunity away to pursue  your own fleeting fame and fortune while feeding your audience  disposable drivel?
Although I launched this web site in October 2004, I’ve been writing  articles since 1999, and feedback has allowed me to understand how small  slices of my writing have affected certain people in the long run.   After reading something I’ve written, people have quit their jobs,  started their own businesses, changed religions, and ended  relationships.  While some people might find this level of impact  ego-gratifying, for me it intensifies my feeling of personal  responsibility for my writing.  I’ve seen that I’m able to have an  impact on people, so I damned well better make it a good one.
This “why” is what drives me.  It’s what compels me to go to my  computer and write something at 3am and not stop until 10am.  I  get inspired often.  The #1 reason I want more traffic is that it will  allow me to help more people.  That’s where I direct my ambition for  this site, and consequently I’m extremely motivated, which certainly  plays a key role in taking action.
6. Let your audience see the real you.
My life and my writing are intricately intertwined, such that it’s  impossible to separate the two.  When someone reads this web site,  they’ll eventually come to know a great deal about me as a  person.  Usually this creates a skewed and inaccurate impression of who I  am today because I change a lot over time – I’m not the same person I  was last year - but it’s close enough.  Getting to know me makes it  easier for people to understand the context of what I write, which means  that more value can be transferred in less time.
I’ve told many personal stories on this site, including my most  painful and difficult experiences.  I don’t do this to be gratuitous but  rather because those stories help make a point – that no matter where  you find yourself today, you always have the opportunity to grow in some  small way, and no matter how small those changes are, they’re going to  add up over time to create massive lifelong growth.  That’s a lesson we  all need to remember.
When I find ways to turn some of my darkest experiences into lessons  that might help others in similar situations, it actually transforms  those painful memories into joyful ones.  They take on new meaning for  me, and I can see that there was a positive reason I had to endure such  experiences, one that ultimately serves the highest good of all.  Oddly,  I now find that it was my darkest times that help create the most light  for others.
With respect to privacy, I don’t really care much for it.  I do  respect other people’s right to privacy, so when people tell me personal  stories via email, I don’t turn around and re-post them to my blog.   But I’m OK with being rather un-private myself.  The need for privacy  comes from the desire to protect the ego, which is a fear-driven desire,  and fear is something I just don’t need in my life.  My attitude is  that it’s perfectly OK to fail or to be rejected publicly.  Trying to  appear perfect is nothing but a house of cards that will eventually  collapse.
I think allowing people to know the real me makes it possible  to build a relationship with my audience that’s based on intimacy and  friendship.  I dislike seeing people putting me on too much of a  pedestal and using labels like ”guru” or “overachiever.”  Such labels  create distance which makes communication harder.  They emphasize our  differences instead of our similarities.  Communication between equals –  between friends – is more effective.
More genuine communication means better connections with your  audience, which means more repeat traffic and more referral traffic.   This isn’t a manipulative game though, and excessive or overly  dramatic self-disclosure for the purpose of linkbaiting will only  backfire.  Your reasons for storytelling must be to benefit your  audience.  The traffic benefits are a positive side effect.
7. Write what is true for you, and learn to live with the consequences.
If the stuff I’ve written on this site means I’ll never be able to  run for a political office, I can live with that.  I’m willing to write  what is true for me, even if it goes against my social conditioning.   Being honest is more important to me than being popular.  But the irony  is that because bold honesty is so rare among civilized humans, in the  long run this may be the best traffic-building strategy of all.
People often warn me not to write things that might alienate a  portion of my visitors.  But somehow I keep doing the opposite and  seeing traffic go up, not down.  I don’t treat any subjects as taboo or  sacred if they’re relevant to personal growth, and that includes diet  and religion.  It’s no secret that I’m a vegan ex-Catholic.  Do I  alienate people when I say that torturing and killing defenseless  animals for food is wrong?  Perhaps.  But truth is truth.  I happen to  think it’s a bad idea to feed cows cement dust and bovine growth  hormone, to pack live chickens into warehouses where the ammonia from  their feces is strong enough to burn their skin off, and to feed 70% of  our grain to livestock while tens of thousands of people die of hunger  each day.  I also think it’s a bad idea to pay people to perform these  actions on my behalf.  It really doesn’t matter to me that 999 people  out of 1000 disagree with me.  Your disagreement with me doesn’t change  what went into producing your burger.  It’s still a diseased, tortured,  chemical-injected cow, one that was doomed to a very sad life because of  a decision you made.  And you’re still responsible for your role in  that cow’s suffering whether you like it or not.
That last paragraph is a good example of the kind of stuff I write  that makes people want to put me in a cage, inject me with hormones, and  feed me cement dust.  It wouldn’t surprise me terribly if that ends up  being my fate.
I write what is true for me, regardless of public opinion.  Sometimes  I’m in the majority; sometimes I’m not.  I’m fully aware that some  of my opinions are unpopular, and I’m absolutely fine with that.  What  I’m not fine with is putting truth to a vote.
I take the time to form my own opinions instead of simply  regurgitating what I was taught as a child.  And I’m also well aware  that there are people spending billions of dollars to make you think  that a burger is not a very sad, diseased, tortured,  chemical-injected cow.  But I’m going to keep writing to help you remain  aware of things like that, even though you may hate me for it.   That defensiveness eventually leads to doubt, which leads to change and  growth, so it’s perfectly fine.  I’m good at dealing with defensiveness.
I don’t worry too much about hurting people’s feelings.  Hurt  feelings are a step in the right direction for many people.  If I’m able  to offend you so easily, to me that means you already recognize some  truth in what I’ve written, but you aren’t ready to face it consciously  yet.  If you read something from me that provokes an emotional reaction,  then a seed has already been planted.  In other words, it’s already too  late for you.  
My goal isn’t to convince anyone of anything in particular.  I’m not  an animal rights activist, and I don’t have a religion to promote.  My  goal is to awaken people to living more consciously.  This requires  raising people’s awareness across all facets of their lives, so they can  make the big decisions for themselves.  It requires breaking social  conditioning and replacing it with conscious awareness and intention.   That’s a big job, but someone has to do it.  And if I don’t do it, then I  have to admit I’m just part of the problem like all the other  hibernating bears.
A lot has been written about the importance of transparency in  blogging, and truth is the best transparency of all.  Truth creates  trust, and trust builds traffic.  No games, no gimmicks… just plain old  brutal honesty.  Even the people that say they hate you will still come  back, and eventually those people will become your most ardent  supporters.  Even if they don’t agree with you, they’ll learn they can  trust you and that your intentions are honorable, and trust is more  important than agreement.
8. Treat your visitors like real human beings.
Even though I’m sitting at my computer writing this, seemingly alone,  I know you’re a real human being reading it on the other end.  My  apologies to sentient androids who may be reading this years after it’s  been written.  You aren’t just a number in my web stats.  Despite the  technology involved and the time-space differential between my writing  and your reading, there’s still a human-to-human connection between us  that transcends time and space.  And that connection matters to me.  I  feel its presence whenever I do my best writing.
While I imagine being on a stage in front of a million people when  deciding which topic to write about, once I actually get going, I  imagine having a one-on-one conversation with a friend.  This means  revealing some of myself and being honest, as the last two points  already addressed, but it also means genuinely caring about you as a  person.  And that’s perhaps one of the best kept secrets of my success  as a blogger.  I actually care about helping you grow.  I want you to  become more conscious and aware.  I want you to experience less fear in  your life.  And my concern for your well-being isn’t conditional upon  you liking me.
I happen to think we have a lot more similarities than differences.   Based on what I know about myself, I imagine you’d like your life to be  better tomorrow than it was yesterday.  I imagine you’d like to be  happier, more fulfilled, and more at peace with yourself.  I also  imagine you’re living below your potential and could use some help  overcoming fear and solving certain problems to enable you to tap more  of that potential.  And finally, I imagine you wouldn’t believe me if I  said you can have it all for only $19.95 (as well you shouldn’t).
The reason I work so hard to create original content and then give it  away for free is because I want to help as many people as possible.  I  genuinely care what happens to this beautiful planet and to the people  who live here.  It’s possible I actually value your life even more than  you do.  This is the kind of motivation that never wanes.  I sometimes  lose sight of it when I get caught up in the details, but the connection  is always there, waiting for me to tap into it whenever I want.  This  provides me with a wellspring of creative ideas and an inexhaustible  passion for contribution.
I don’t need to play stupid marketing and sales games with you.   There’s nothing for you to buy here.  Even if I add some products in the  future, I’m not going to try to manipulate you into buying something  you don’t need with a slew of false promises.  I might make more money  in the short-term by doing that, but it would sever our genuine  connection, create a wall between us, and reduce the level of impact I’m  able to have.  Ultimately, that approach would lead to failure for me,  at least in terms of how I define success.  I can’t help you grow if I  violate your trust.
I cannot force anyone to grow who doesn’t want to.  But there are a  lot of people on this planet who are now ready to let go of  low-awareness living and start pushing themselves to the next level of  human existence.  And they need help to get there because it’s a  difficult journey, and there are strong forces working against it.
Real human beings helping real human beings is ultimately what  traffic growth is all about.  That’s precisely what a link or a referral  is.  If you align yourself with the intention of genuinely helping  people because you care, you’ll soon find yourself with an abundance of  traffic.
9. Keep money in its proper place.
Money is important.  Obviously I have bills to pay.  Money pays for  my computer, my high-speed internet connection, my house, and my food.  I  just returned yesterday from a vacation that money paid for.  My wife  and I had a great time partly because we didn’t have to worry about  money at all on the trip.  We did everything we wanted to do without  being hampered by a lack of funds.  And this web site paid for it.
It’s important that I generate some money from my work, but it’s not  necessary that I extract every possible dollar.  In fact, relative to  its traffic levels, I’m seriously under-monetizing this site.  But money  is only a means to an end, not an end in itself.  Making a positive  contribution to the world is a lot more important to me than money.   Money can be useful in achieving this objective, but human relationships  are far more important.  The funny thing is that the less I rely on  money, the more of it I seem to have.
I’m already making more money than I need to pay my bills, and my  income from this site keeps going up each month.  If I simply keep doing  what I’m doing, I’ll probably end up becoming fairly wealthy.  But  money is an extremely weak motivator for me.  Very little of what I do  today has a profit motive behind it except to the extent that money will  fuel more important goals.  That tends to confuse certain people  because some of my decisions align with earning money, but many don’t.   While I do consider myself an entrepreneur (at least it’s less isolating  than “guru”), I only see money as a tool for enhancing and expanding  my contribution.
While many entrepreneurs pursue money for the purpose of becoming  wealthy, I chose a different route.  I sought to earn money for the  purpose of increasing my freedom.  I don’t want to get myself stuck in a  pattern of working for money, so I’m constantly turning down  opportunities to make money that would restrict my freedom.  For  example, I don’t do any consulting or coaching.  Consequently, my  calendar contains very few fixed appointments.  This doesn’t mean I’m  idle.  It just means I spend my time doing what I freely choose to do  instead of what others would have me do.  I require this level of  flexibility to do my best work.
By paying close attention to how I earn money and not just how much I  earn, I keep money in its proper place.  This allows me to stay focused  on my purpose without getting wrapped up in less important concerns  like building a brand, closing sales, or doing phony marketing.
I dislike it when other people use one-dimensional sales and  marketing tactics on me, so I avoid using these techniques on this  site.  I’ve sort of unplugged myself from the current capitalistic  system and set up a side system of my own that I find much more  congruent with conscious living.  I would love for other people to have  the same level of freedom I enjoy each day.  I’m sure I’ll continue to  improve my approach over time, but it’s working wonderfully so far.   Imagine having a business with no products, no inventory, no sales, and  no customers, but still generating an abundant positive cashflow.
Since the income generation is largely on autopilot, I can focus my  time and energy on creating content instead of on doing marketing or  trying to sell something.  And being able to devote so much time to  content creation without worrying how I’ll pay my bills makes it a lot  easier to build high traffic.
Some business models make it very challenging to build traffic.  You  have to spend a lot of time and energy just on lead generation, and then  maybe you try to monetize those leads by selling a product or service.   It’s always an uphill struggle.
I give all my best content away for free.  Word of mouth does the  rest.  So my traffic building strategy is more like flowing downstream.   It hasn’t been a struggle for me at all.  And once you have sufficient  traffic, it isn’t that hard to monetize it without becoming an ogre.
We’ve all heard the expression, “Build a better mousetrap, and  they’ll come.”  And we’ve also heard marketing and sales people say  that this is just plain wrong – you have to market and sell that  mousetrap effectively too.  I say they’re all wrong.  My approach is the  equivalent of, “Build a better mousetrap and give it away for free, and  they’ll come – and they’ll bring friends too.”
10. If you forget the first nine suggestions, just focus on genuinely helping people, and the rest will take care of itself.
One thing that turns me off about typical self-help marketing is that  authors and speakers often position themselves as if they’re the  opposite of their audience.  I’m successful and you’re not.  I’m rich  and you’re not.  I’m fit and you’re not.  You need me because something  is lacking in your life, I have exactly what you lack, and if you pay me  (and make me even richer and you poorer), I’ll show you how you can  have it too.  And if it doesn’t work for you, it just means you’re even  more of an idiot than the people who provided my testimonials.
I’m sure you’ve heard this sort of nonsense many times before.
All of this I’ve-arrived-and-you-haven’t stuff is stupid.  It  suggests that life is about destinations and that once you’ve arrived,  you’re done growing and can just relax and sip fruity drinks for the  rest of your life.  But there’s more to life than border crossings.  If  you go from single to married or from non-millionaire to millionaire,  that’s fine and dandy.  Crossing the border into parenthood was a big  one for me.  But that’s only one day of my life, and to be honest, I  didn’t have much control over it except for a decision made nine-months  earlier (and it seemed like a pretty attractive idea at the time).  What  about all those other days though?
Growing as a human being is something I work on daily.  I’m deeply  passionate about my own growth, so naturally I want to share this part  of the journey with others.  If I start marketing myself with the “I’m  successful and you’re not approach,” I hope someone will come put me  out of my misery, since that would mean I’m done growing and ready to  die.  I don’t expect to ever be done growing as long as I exist as a  human being.  There are always new distinctions to be made and new  experiences to enjoy.  And yes… plenty of mistakes to be made as well.
One of the great benefits of focusing on helping others is that it  gets fear out of the way.  Without fear you become free to just be  yourself.  You’re able to take intelligent risks and remain detached  from any specific outcome because the journey is more important to you  than the specific stops along the way.  Personally it’s not the  destinations that excite me but rather the unfolding process of  discovery.  I love the anticipation of wondering what lies around each  new bend.
If we are to help each other, we need to be partners in the pursuit  of growth, not opponents.  So it makes no sense to put up fake walls  between us.  The ego needs walls to protect it, but if we can get past  the fear-based needs of the ego, we’ll make a lot more progress.
There are plenty of things I could do with this site that would make  me more money or grow traffic faster in the short-term, but I won’t do  them because they’ll just put more distance between us.  I’ll be on my  side, you’ll be on your side, and we’ll each be slightly afraid of the  other.  I’ll be worried that maybe you won’t buy what I’m selling, and  you’ll be worried about getting ripped off or taken advantage of.  We’ll  just be drinking yet another round of fear, which is exactly the  opposite of what we need to grow.
One of my biggest challenges in life right now is figuring out how to  help enough people switch their primary polarization from fear to  love.  Our emotions are an energy source for us (they drive our  actions), and most of the world is still driven by fear energy.   Watching TV news is a good example; we can actually feel energized by  watching others suffer.  Hurting animals is another example; we eat  their fear for breakfast.  But there’s another fuel for human  consciousness, and perhaps the best way to describe it is unconditional  love.  This isn’t the squishy emotion of romantic love – it’s a sense of  connection to everything that exists and a desire to serve the highest  good of all.  Unconditional love, when it becomes one’s primary fuel,  cultivates fearlessness.  In this state you still have the biological  fight-or-flight response, but you aren’t driven by emotional worries  like fear of failure or fear of rejection.  You feel perfectly safe  regardless of external circumstances.  And when you have this feeling of  unconditional safety, you’re truly free to be yourself, to embrace new  experiences, and to grow at a very fast pace.
Personal growth is not a zero-sum game.  If you grow as a human  being, it doesn’t harm me.  In fact, ultimately if all of us grow as  individuals, it’s going to make this whole planet better for everyone.   When enough people switch their primary polarization from fear to  unconditional love, this planet will become a true paradise.  That’s a  good thing for all of us, one that’s more important than all the money  in the world.
Perhaps you have a less ambitious goal for building web traffic than  raising human consciousness and working towards world peace.  That  doesn’t matter.  You can still make helping others your primary focus,  and if you do that, you’ll find it relatively easy to build a  high-traffic web site.  If you align yourself with serving the highest  good of all, you’ll receive plenty of help along the way, and best of  all, you’ll deserve it.
Do your best to help your visitors out of genuine concern for their  well-being, and they’ll help you build your traffic and even generate a  nice income from it.  It’s as simple as that.
