<p><img src="http://www.threeturtlemarketing.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/turtle.jpg" alt="turtle" width="186" height="134" align="left" />The turtles are nothing if not consistent. The picture to the left was taken first thing this morning and the gravel is dug out AGAIN. Sunday is there normal clean up day so I reset the pieces to MY liking, level the gravel and swap out some of the water. Makes it look just the way I LIKE.</p>
<p>They always have a different idea and are quite consistent at changing it back to what THEY LIKE asap. Now this can be aggravating at me as The Turtle Dad but give them credit they are always going to take the action to get it the way THEY LIKE.</p>
<p>Your marketing takes the same kind of consistent behavior. Unfortunately we don&#8217;t always do that.</p>
<p>Does this sound familiar?</p>
<p>Day one you did your blog post, created a Squidoo lens and submitted an article. Day two though you answer email, visit the forums and thats it.</p>
<p>Day 3 something comes up at home (life does have an habit of interfering) and nothing gets done. Day 4 you missed so much that you just deal with email. And it continues.</p>
<p>You need to consistently do the things that will push your business forward EACH day.</p>
<p>The <a href="http://authoritysite-2.com" target="_blank">Authority Site</a> will give you the blueprint to get traffic rolling but it takes consistent effort. There are numerous other plans including Marlon Sanders <a href="http://getyourprofits.com/z/748/CD15293/" target="_blank">Promo Dashboard</a> if you want to market various affiliate products that will do the same IF you take consistent action and don&#8217;t let the outside interfere.</p>
<p>The turtles consistently change the tank back to what THEY LIKE no matter how often I interfere. If you did the same with your business it WILL grow much faster and the success you are looking for will finally arrive.</p>

It seems the spot at the top is usually the one everyone jockeys for. Today Gizzard had the coveted spot and I watched him fend off other challengers until the others left him alone to enjoy his spot at the top. The picture to the left is him enjoying the fruits of his effort.</p>
<p>Now it isn&#8217;t that easy every day and it does change day to day.</p>
<p>Reminds me of Google and what they do. Check the listings for a topic three days in a row and it is not unusual to see some changes. Other topics it rarely changes.</p>
<p>The ones that don&#8217;t change much are usually for a simple reason. Google has decided that these sites are the authority in that topic. Create that kind of site site and you can get lots of traffic from the Big G.</p>
<p>The problem is knowing how to create the type of site that Google feels is the authority on the topic. It isn&#8217;t hard but does take effort.</p>
<p>You do need a plan and to understand how you can use good quality content and a variety of Web 2.0 sites to create that authority. Doesn&#8217;t happen over night but can be well worth the effort.</p>
<p>If you would like a plan on how to do this step by step check out <a href="http://authoritysite-2.com" target="_blank">Authority Site 2.0</a>. Then after you have fended the others off you can relax and bask like Gizzard is.</p>
