What are the biggest mistakes that newbies to Internet Marketing make?

Posted by on August 8, 2010

When a newcomer to promoting a web business or starting a work at home business online begins this venture what are the most common mistakes they make? This would include any business that involves Internet Marketing but especially the work from home income opportunity type.

The failure to modify, and test.

You MUST, and I do mean MUST… Test your strategies, looking at the results, and then make modifications again and test again.

Also, most people come into the Business with the theory, I’m going to start making $10,000 this month. Unless they have a huge budget to start with, it’s not going to happen.

Internet marketing is a game of education, practice, testing, and as my fiancee tells me "Try and Try Until Success".

I spend a fair amount of money on Education every month, simply because I don’t want to learn all of it by trial and error.

But even with everything I’ve learned, I still test, and test, and test.. and try new things, and change that, and keep on keeping on..

    The biggest mistake is to commission a website from a web designer who knows nothing about how users and search engines actually behave. No web designer will actually admit that they are ignorant of these behaviors but almost all of them are.

    Only one in thousand new websites are designed for users and search engines, the vast majority are designed only for the client. They may look nice (sometimes!) but they don’t actually work. They are not search engine friendly and do not stand a chance of appearing high in the listings. If users do find the site and can’t see exactly what they are looking for in the first couple of seconds they will just hit the back button.

    To avoid this very common mistake it is essential to find a designer who is up to date on SEO and user behavior studies. There are very few!

    They believe they can earn a lot of money in very little time and with very little effort. They do not have a plan and jump from one business opportunity to the next. They believe the hype that fill up their mailbox. They do not focus on something they know about. They do not invest the time and money required to do it right.
