Pace of the internet

It’s well know that the technology industry is very fast paced and all, but is it? Well, yes. But then again with websites, everything moves a little slower. Because it takes time for websites to build up a reptuation, get into search engines, get back links, etc, things often have a much longer development period than it seems.

I’m often working on projects that won’t pay off until 6, 12 months down the line. For instance, my new blogs aren’t really going to start picking up on search engine traffic for months while the search engines get used to them and it will be years before they are fully trusted.

Sites on xmeltrut.com which I launched 6 months ago or even longer, maybe in 2004, are only really now starting to really pick up traffic.
