Getting a website to the top of the search engines "on your own" is what independent traffic is. It is also what independent money is. Look at it this way, the way to get your website to the top of the search engines is by simply having more backlinks to your website than your competitors. Not just any backlinks though, they have to be "quality" backlinks. The search engines will determine what website will rank number one by these three key factors: trust, authority and the relevance of the backlinks.

But believe it or not, you do not necessarily have to rank number one and be at the very top of the search engines to generate independent money online. It helps but it is not mandatory. A lot of online entrepreneurs feel that they have to rank number one in order to see profit and make money online but this is not necessarily true. For example: you can receive a consistent amount of independent traffic from other people's websites and thus making independent money as the end result. There are a lot of independent internet marketers who's websites are far from being number one but they are still steady generating a six to seven figure monthly incomes online with ease through receiving independent traffic.

Always remember that independent traffic equals independent money.

Traffic building is simply a means of creating bridges (backlinks) to your website. It is really not that difficult if you can put a little time and effort into it. Now, this does not mean that you will not need help making money online. You have to have some type of network stream where traffic is transferred from one site to another. A lot of people would classify making independent money online is equivalent to getting free traffic "without" the search engines. In other words, this simply means getting traffic from other sources other than finding a website from the keyphrases or keywords people search for in the search engines.
