And you know what this told me? Precisely nothing. Nothing ofrepparttar 124660 tips and advice contained inrepparttar 124661 book or its likelihood of becomingrepparttar 124662 next global Bestseller.

You do this Numb Nuts Number Obsessing with your website, I know you do. In fact - YOU know you do but guess what -repparttar 124665 numbers tell you precisely nothing! Here's some numbers you might be numbing your thinking with:

- The number of pages viewed on your website every month

- The number of visitors coming to your website every day

- The number of your ranking in Google for your most important key phrase

- The number of your global traffic ranking according to Alexa.com

- The number of people that signed up to your mailing list yesterday
