    I agree with the list except point one - you could have a great website and not get any traffic due to bad promotion and bad SEO.

    The most important factors are 4 & 5, if this is happening to you, you need to look at your design and content and rework it!

    I agree with edgray. There are amazing websites on the web that we don't know of because they didn't create backlinks, submitted to directories etc.

    Perfectly said, edgray. If 4 & 5 are occuring on your site, you are losing a lot of potential earnings and need to figure out what the problem is FAST!

    6. You're making up blog posts in a desperate plea to drive traffic to your site.
