Famous Entrepreneurs

 |
When do business people become famous entrepreneurs? When enough people know about them, and talk about them.
When do people decide to talk about any given business person? Generally speaking, it is when their accomplishments are noteworthy.
What is noteworthy? Money, or high net worth, and reputation, are the usual measures of success.
So. What does it take to be considered as one of the most famous entrepreneurs, when you do business exclusively on the Web?
When are you declared a winner?
How Success Is Measured On The Web
There are many highly successful Web entrepreneurs who are not talked about much, or at all, in the media. Yet, they are very successful, by any measure, and famous within their ranks.
My own entrepreneur success story is a good example.
Traffic Volume

You measure a given Web entrepreneur's success by measuring the number of people going through their Web site(s). Many own more than one business Web site, collectively pulling in thousands of new visitors … each day!
The official way to measure a Web site's traffic ranking is with Alexa.com. Here is a sample of some of the top Web entrepreneurs in the world. Alexa.com ranks them in the top 1% on the Web.
What's remarkable about this group of entrepreneurs? They are ordinary people. What sets them apart? They have a passion to share, and they share it with passion! Period.
Well, admittedly, passion is not enough. They do use a time proven method to make it all happen! Read on.
Web Presence

Another simple way to measure the success of a given business person, is to look for the business owner's name on Google. For example, if you look up my name "Claude Jollet" (using quotes to ensure accuracy), Google will return about 3000 pages on the Web that mention my name! (Mid-October 2007).
That is a measure of my Web presence in the world.
If you look up "Ken Evoy", one of the most famous entrepreneurs on the Web today, Google will return nearly 100,000 Web pages mentioning him on the Web. Dr Evoy owns Sitesell Inc.
If you own a business, and perhaps even a Web site, look up your name (between quotes) on Google. Of course, if your name is "John Smith", the search will not give true results, because it will bring back countless other unrelated "John Smith"!
The difference between my "Google score" and yours, should be enough to prove my point. I only started building my business on the Web in December 2005, with my first Web site, the one you are on now.
Another example of Web presence is on YouTube.
My video, titled "A Retiree Sharing His Passions", has been viewed more than 8000 times in ten months! (Mid-October 2007). You can check the latest total here. The popularity of my video attracts even more traffic to my business Web site.
If you have a video on YouTube, how many times has it been viewed?
How Do They Do It

| Web sites built with Site Build It! |
As you can see, there are other indicators than net worth, and press time, to identify famous entrepreneurs of the Web.
There are nearly 60 million active Web sites out there, on the Internet.
When Alexa.com ranks your business Web site at a position less than 2,000,000 … your Web site is considered to be in the top 3%, on the World Wide Web!
Here are a few examples of ordinary people whose business Web site(s) made them famous, throughout the world!
Like them, you could build your own reputation and brand name on the Web - the World Wide Web - by building your business Web site with Site Build It!
The more traffic goes through your business Web site, the higher your chances of making a sale. The Site Build It process ensures that your business, and its Web site, are engineered to bring in a continuously increasing flow of traffic.
The Bottom Line
The bottom line is that traffic is "potential" money.
It's your job to turn your incoming traffic into money, with useful information, designed to help your visitors make an informed decision. You are tipping the scales your way by being informative and helpful.
Search engines and word-of-mouth make you famous on the Web … if you deserve it!
