#12 is very, very true. Couldn't be more true. When you have a breakthrough, you have to double your efforts and not only maintain the current level of activity but plow forward further at three times the pace.
I had (and still have) a mainstream site that I was spinning my wheels on for a couple of years. Then one day I got it wrote up in the media (big publication, nationwide). Traffic poured in and the site became super popular. That was almost two years ago and my traffic has never went down since then, not because I sat on it and "enjoyed the success" but because I never stopped pushing the site, never stopped trying to exchange links, never stopped checking up and never stopped trying to get one more user to sign up and start using the site.
Bookmarked this thread for when I have more time to read instead of skim, but lots of good ideas here. Thanks for posting.
