10. Be patient
This is the most important factor. Many people give up, thinking that they won't succeed no matter what they do. They post numerous articles, but ranking on Google seems difficult. They upload many videos, but views remain low. Be patient! What I mentioned earlier is just a part of it. Some people prefer quick results and opt for paid advertising (point 7), while others save costs and proceed gradually. The key is to keep going and never stop.
Online marketing requires time and effort. Results won't appear instantly. It's crucial to be patient and wait, and one day you'll see results that exceed your expectations. If you stop, your online presence will stagnate.
Imagine you and a competitor both write one article per week on your websites, using the exact same keywords. However, you do it for three months, while your competitor does it for a year (although in reality, the chances of this happening are almost zero).
Who will have more keywords that customers might search for on Google? And whose website are customers more likely to see? Oh, and one more thing: Google favors websites with consistency. They view consistent websites as high-quality websites.
