Step by step
Today was a day of promoting, submitting to a number of directories. Now, for many beginning webmasters, this batch of submissions would be reason to sit back and wait for the avalance of traffic to pour in.
But that's not the way it works. Each batch of submissions will have a negligible effect on traffic and sales. One day's worth of submissions—or any other promotion—is not enough to have a noticeable effect. The power is in persistence and consistency—promoting it again and again in any way you can.
Each promotion is like a single snowflake. By itself, it doesn't have much of an effect. But once you build them up into a big enough mass, they can have a huge effect. So keep building that snowball. Eventually, it will become big enough to surprise you with how great of an effect it can have.
