Well,  We are officially announcing the series “The Barriers to Success.”

The Key to Success

Over the coming months we will be going over those things that hold us back, keep us from breaking out and stop us from accomplishing great things.

There are many barriers in our life and we need to look inside ourselves as we approach any of them to ascertain how we will get around, go over, go under or blast through those barriers.

The key to success is navigating those barriers that we encounter.

With each post we will be highlighting a barrier you are familiar with that is physical in nature and then sharing the mental, social or philosophical barriers along with.

I know this is a short post.  But, Monday starts a new dawn in learning The Barriers to Success.

Make sure you are ready and have a pencil and paper as you read the posts.  There will be plenty O’ good stuff.

Today I was doing the math on my improvement with regard to my Alexa rating.  It was fascinating to look at that improvement and what it would mean to my business.

It made me think of the dollars that would be coming from that improvement.  While at this point they will not be significant, there will be incremental improvement.  As my sites move up through the ranks there will be improvements that translate into dollars along the way.

What that made me think of is how small improvements make major dollar differences when you get to the stage of excellence and beyond.  A 1% increase in excellence when you have achieved excellence translates into millions of dollars.  Where as a 1% increase in excellence (while still good) produces very little in monetary gains when you are at or close to incompetence.

I have created a visual for this.  The principle is called the “Excellence Principle“.  I conceived this graphic and named it while I was at IBM.  I watched good, bad and great sales men/women and their achievements or lack thereof.  It inspired me to study why some made extraordinary income and others struggled.  Using the lines first, it shows how much initial effort is necessary to gain financial rewards.  Then it shows how little effort is necessary to do it when you are at the excellence stage.

Here’s the goods.  Last week I had an Alexa rating of 2,493,100.  I have made a concerted effort to move traffic to the site as well as create compelling content.  Whether I have done that or not, well, you be the judge.  However, this week when I checked the numbers, I had achieved an Alexa rank of 1,101,201.

That is a 59% improvement over the last week.

Now, I get to create real improvement to achieve each percentage point from here on out.  The key is to promote your blog consistently and to continue to create serious content.

The critical thing to remember is to continue to improve and create consistent quality content.  My commitment to you is to continue creating content that I consider valuable.

Keep watching for the beginning of the “Barriers to Success” series we will be walking through in the coming days.

Just starting this web thing right can produce big changes.  Here are some changes in the last couple of months.  they are compelling to say the least…

From Exponential Real Estate:

You will notice the percentage change in the last 3 months (3,541%) in visitors on the top line.  On the second line you will notice an 18,524,959 improvement in places in traffic rank.  And finally, the page is ranked 169,798 in the US.  That is a big change.

Young Millionaire Group has some similar results.  Lets look at them:

Again, you can see the monthly average -vs-the weekly average and the stark difference that just consistently working on the sites makes.

You can make similar strides with your website if you take the time to work your business.
