By Steve Weber I work with many beginners and I see them making the same mistakes over and over. In fact, I made many of these same mistakes myself when I began online marketing. I have here a list of the biggest ten mistakes that are very commonly made by newbie online marketers. 1. I see too many newbies paying $20 per month or more for hosting their sites. There is absolutely no reason for this. An excellent hosting account can be bought for five or six dollars each month. This is more than enough for most beginning Online newbies needs. 2. Many beginners begin their sites by sticking many affiliate links all over the pages. This is a huge mistake. When Google sees a page with many affiliate links all across it, they are liable to believe it is nothing but another affiliate site. They do not like sites made specifically for affiliate marketing products. Don't make yours look like another spam site made only for affiliate marketing. 3. Also Google AdWords is a great way to promote products online, it is a very difficult marketing method to learn. It requires great practice, plenty of money to work with as the clicks cost money. Too many beginners assume Google AdWords is a very easy way to make money online. Nothing could be further from the truth. 4. You may have heard content is key. However, many beginners fail to understand that content must be original. tI cannot be copied content from anyplace found on the web. It must all be written in original content. You may rewrite something, but it must be seen by Google as completely original. 5. Many beginners find it difficult to find images to use on their website. They often end up stealing those images from other sites. That is a very bad mistake to make. There are photo services and image services online where you can obtain images quite cheaply. Never take and use an image form another site without that site's permission. 6. Beginners often learn so much about internet marketing in the beginning they become overloaded. They find themselves scattered here and there and lose focus. This is a big reason many internet marketers simply quit before they see any success. Beginners need to insure they stay focused. This is where having a mentor becomes very important. 7. Many beginners want to sell physical products online. Before they even test the idea, they install a shopping cart, or pay for a shopping cart system for their website. They should not do this without first testing the product in order to make sure the idea will work. It is best to use a simple PayPal shopping cart in the beginning. 8. Be very careful of the information products you purchase. Many of them are spam products or scam products. They should not be trusted just by their sales pages. Do research on the seller before you purchase! Steve Weber owns http://www.StevesClassRoom.com which offers free tutorials for building a profitable website.
