You'd think people would start to figure it out wouldn't you? I think it comes down to the web making it so easy for people to create sites and businesses. That's a great thing, but it's also a bad thing, because in making it so easy people get misled into thinking they don't need to spend the time developing a real business model and creating real goals.
There's still the 'if you build it they will come and buy' mentality out there.
I'm with you in that I could have done a better job setting those goals from the outset, but I know both of us did have goals in mind for our sites and have business models behind our sites. Maybe we can both improve the goals and models, but we're that much closer for at least having them.
The post does seem familiar, but I don't mind reading good advice more than once.
