Traffic is no joke, it's the core of an online business. Tap into traffic and you have people visiting your website, each a potential customer. So when you hit traffic flow you hit a goldmine.

That's what happened to me today. This morning I created my first hubs on HubPages.com and by middle of the day I already got 20 hits. That's fantastic return for all of 30 minutes work.

Believe me, I'm out there in the thick of it and no content sharing site has ever given me that many hits in one morning on the same day I loaded content. I can't explain it, I won't even try. You must see and try this for yourself. So far I've created three hubs African Real Estate Investment , African Stock Investment and Prepaid Metering . Check them out. They're simple for now, but if hots keep on rolling, I'll keep building.

Property investors looking to meet a true heavy in real estate investing will be glad to know that plans for the long awaited visit by Dolf de Roos are well under way. News of Dolf's coming to South Africa was announced last year in a short press release from South African Real Estate INVESTOR Magazine . The story has also been unfolding on the local Dolf de Roos website Property Prosperity .

Inside information has now been handed to me that dates for breakfast meetings with Dolf will soon be announced on the Property Prosperity and South African Real Estate INVESTOR websites. Last year, Property Prosperity invited all property investors interested in getting early warning and booking discounts to register on the Property Prosperity website. So if you have not already done so, I suggest you get on over there now and register. When they send out the early booking, you most definitely want to be the first in line. These seats will sell like hot cakes and you don't want to be disappointed.

Don't say I did not warn you. You heard it first from me.

Here's an African site worth blogging about called bundublog.com , don't asked me why an African website should rightfully have a .com domain extension, but this one does. I'm happy to overlook this non-African twist simply because this is a blog website for Africans.

Looks like the the site is built on an open source platform which interests me. Site features are kewl but I am not sure if Technorati is automatically pinged when you blog here. With everything what remains important here is that this site is African and hence is showing that Africa is starting to address the need for social media in an African context. Web 2.0 sites and especially social web 2.0 sites are lacking in the African context, so it's good to see somebody has realized this and is making a difference.

Traffic to the site is still nowhere on the Alexa scale, so I guess it will be one to monitor. Interested to see whether this builds the critical mass of sites like amatomu. 

So kudos to Gordan for scratching his itch and building the site.
