    There are some potential mistakes that you do when your new internet business started. At the beginning of the process, the mistakes can make your online business step obstructed.
    What is it? See 4 Mistakes while starting the internet business.


    The first: spend all the funds for the ads in one place.
    This can happen on the newbie. Perhaps because the spirit of the internet business started, and all funds for the ads is only spent to advertise in one place. With the expectation that the size of the ad, the ad can get great success. This is very dangerous.

    Solution: broken funds for the ads you into some parts.
    Testing and measuring the results. If successful, continue to try to increase big ad.
    But if not, you can try to move to other ad providers. Thus you can measure and compare the level of effectiveness of other ads. If there is a new ad service, do not be ashamed to try.


    The Second: Does not want to buy products of learning in the internet.
    does not want to buy products of learning in the internet, either the ebook or video training or membership training.

    Solution: Buy it.
    Why should buy? Simple, reason is to shorten your study time. That's it. As you all know that many internet marketing products is a summary of the various forms of knowledge from teachers online business. You can see many products of learning in programselection.com.


    the third: give up after trying only once
    Many people give up quickly because the results have not appeared. Suppose a new post the article once, then immediately want a blog make money. follow-up once, then never do it again. Hopefully this never happens to you.

    Solution: try again, again, again and again.
    Never give up! continue to post consistent.


    the fourth: does not follow up the prospects.
    Prospect is a potential user's product or service. No follow up or make a bid as well as doing something, but half way. Maybe they forget or are busy, so you need to remind them through the follow up.

    Solution: do follow up. And not just once.
    When you need up to 10 times. If not successful, provide the product or offer other services that may be needed by the prospect. Therefore, some products have become their own advantage. When the prospect has not be paired with one product, may be paired with other products.


    How do you think?
    have a list of mistakes that beginners usually do in the beginning of the internet business?

    rightly said...

    to add more...

    1)displaying ads and promoting products without enough content and readers in blog

    2)Too much of advertisements - that the user finds it very difficult to read the content

    3)lastly - doesnt invest time in learning - instead focusing on earning - thereby failing ultimately

    Adding two more here:

    1)Not understanding the chosen niche

    By god people if your going to write about a subject actually know at minimum the basics of it

    2)If you run a website at least learn the bare minimum in HTML so that you dont have to keep putting your hand in your pocket when small changes are needed. [basic to me is being able to understand 60% of whats written in your html file]

    and some more...

    1. Not planning enough
    2. Over-estimating your potential share of the market or potential earnings
    3. Having insufficient funds in place
    4. Poor cash-flow planning or management (cash is king!) - the killer of most businesses
    5. Not understanding the difference between turnover and profit (turnover is vanity, profit is sanity - don't know who said that)
    6. Expecting to succeed without hard work
    7. Related to 6 - expecting immediate success

    This is all great advice. Is there such a thing as a template plan for a website? One that makes you think about the content and SEO?

    No,the learning product can get it free by reading at various forum.
    It the biggest mistake to buy learning product online coz its waste of time especially those material that claim after you read the ebook,you'll be earning $200/hour which mean $4800/day

    The only people that profit from learning products are people that sell that book or video :)) it's just a business to sell words like "How to earn 10000 in one month doing almost nothing (^^) !!". The truth is you will work hard to earn even 100$ or even 10$.
    The part i like from above rules - do it again and again and again or die trying :)

    The most important mistakes that i could think are Niche Selection and Marketing Strategy.

    1. Selecting the right niche and keywords for your Internet based Business, is the most important step that you should not make a mistake. You have to investigate first, identify the competition and decide the niche. It doesn't matters you are an expert in that niche or not but it matters how well you are publishing quality content on that niche. Selecting a low demand keyword and low competition niche leads you to failure. You have to find a competitive niche, high demand keywords and go for long tail keywords to take off the competition.
    2. You have to market your business using right strategies, don't go for worst short term methods (like keyword stuffing, spamming etc). Go for the right SEO approach that works for the long term to promote your business. Giving out quality content in your site takes your business automatically to the next level of success.

    Great post. I agree with all of these, especially number 2 due to the fact time = money, and if your time should be worth at least minimum wage ($8) (AT LEAST!), thus if you can learn how to be successful for only $80, that is 10 hours of work. Which could perhaps be more like 50+ trying to learn it by your self :)

    Really good advice.
    The most important one, according to my opinion, is number three. This is where many people fail.

    these are great tips especially with the not giving up part, you are bound to have many failures but if you continue and never give up, eventually you will succeed.

    i wanna say i agree but i dont. you can be a real hard worker and just never give up. but like is a huge part of succeeding especially in a web business. need to be lucky when advertising ur site (right people see your site), need to be lucky to have something others dont. i could keep going down forever. but luck really plays a big role. but hard work and never giving up does as well

    Good post! However that is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the mistakes one can make trying to make a profit on the internet.

    One thing I love doing is helping out people who want to make money on the internet and that is why I started a consulting company for new internet businesses to help them through all these mistakes (and avoid them) and get them on the right path to success.
