2006 Plus Stomper Surveys About Online Marketers In General

Surveys derived from various sources such as Newsletter Subscriber, Smarts Members, Simple Members, & Stomper Members.

Seventy-eight percent of those surveyed consider themselves beginners at SEO.
Seventy-two percent of those surveyed consider themselves beginners at paid traffic.
Eighty-five percent of those surveyed consider themselves beginners at conversion tactics.
Seventy-seven percent of those surveyed consider themselves beginners at strategic business planning.
Eighty percent of those surveyed consider themselves intermediate or advanced at Microsoft Office.
Seventy-eight percent of those that have been online two years or more, trying to build their business... make less than a thousand dollars a month from their online business(s).

There are three things that your online business must get good at for it to be more than a hobby.

1. Traffic – Getting Traffic To Your Site.
2. Conversion – Converting That Traffic To Buyers.
3. Community – Building A Community Of Not Only Customers & Prospects But Also Of Employees & Resources So Your
   Business Can Operate And Grow Without You.

This survey certainly applies to me.
