It is sometimes hard to remember or believe that the internet didn’t
exist as recently as thirty years ago and that because of the rate of
online change, what we now know as the net is very, very different to
the way it was back then.

It’s therefore quite an oddity that the net as it is now far closer to the
original concept that the man who is widely credited with inventing the
World Wide Web (Tim Berners-Lee) had back in the late eighties. He
anticipated that the net would be a place where people all over the
world would be able to interact with one another.
Whilst this has not been the case for much of the history of the net, it is
beginning to be far more so nowadays, particularly with the explosion in
what are known as Web 2.0 resources over the past few years.

And yet, some things about the net have never changed, and most
probably never will be. Amongst these non-changing aspects of the
web, perhaps the most important and inalterable is the fact that without
visitors to your website, your site might as well not exist!
This is doubly true if you have a site or a blog designed to generate an
online income because without visitors, there is no way that your site is
ever going to be capable of doing so.
