    In terms of daily uniques with unique and fresh content posted almost daily. I know there are variables, but whats the mimimum one should expect or be considered he/she has failing.

    Personally I think 10,000 uniques a day is wildly optimistic because Google tends to sandbox most new sites for quite a few months, and even if they hadn't, getting 300,000 uniques a month at the one year point form search engines will be very difficult unless you produce multiple pages of content a day and you've achieved lot of good natural linkage.

    not possible to say. it could be zero if you just put the site up and did nothing to promote the site. or could get traffic storm if the site is promoted properly. all depends on the site quality, content, onpage optimization, and promotion

    depend how much work you put into SEO and marketing. 10,000 uniques a day after one year is pretty far fetched, so don't use that as your curve.. do work

    I think that 10,000 figure is very unlikely unless te site produces a lot of ontnet daily and manages to get some really high quality natural linkage from other related sites which can boost for various top search terms as well as lots of long tail keywords. Even then, a site usually gains momentum after the 1 year mark, in most cases.

    it depends more on your content & if you're not doing any "blackhat techniques" to promote it.

    good content has a way to getting around and self-advertising.
