The amount of income to a business, group or individual is proportional to the amount of attention it receives.

You become well know by generating interest in what you provide or accomplish, and this involves doing and producing something of value, and then communicating about it. You'll find that the successful marketers, both those using traditional media, and those concentrating on the internet, will tell you that the most valuable thing you have is your email mailing list (or central files of names & contact details). This is because it provides you with a way to contact people who are or were interested in what you do, and are open to hearing more about it.

Promoting yourself over the internet isn't limited to email campaigns of course. There are a heap of things you can do, and some will be best for you, and others not much use. It's usually best practice to concentrate on a single thing that gets results for you, rather than spreading yourself too thin trying to cover all options.
