7 Common Internet Home Business Mistakes

Many Online Gurus often tell you what you should do online with your internet home business websites but many do not tell you what not to do which is as important. In this article we will highlight the seven most common internet home business mistakes that internet home business owners commonly make.

Over optimize website

Most internet home business owners when they first learn about Search Engine Optimization spend a lot of time on "On site" optimization. This means that they spend endless hours tweaking their meta-tags and sitemaps and adding content on the websites that they create. Not that this is not important but search engines today have moved on and now look at PageRank which is a measure of how popular your website is online by counting the number of inbound links from other websites. Search engines also look at your website's anchor text link that is found on websites with related industries. One good way to get such links is to exchange links with other websites and another way is to write articles and put your anchor text into your signature text.

Putting all your eggs into one basket

Sometimes it is hard to diversify and build multiple websites when you first start out in your internet home business because you are so caught up building one website that will be your crowning achievement online. What you do need to do however is to build several related websites at the same time and build link popularity for them all. This would also help you generate multiple income streams for your internet home business.

Not registering their own domain

Some people spend endless hours posting free ads on free classified ads online using the company referral code. What happens sometimes is that the company changes the referral code and all their previous advertising is in vain. A better way is to register your own domain and point it to whatever referral code you want and avoid this problem.

Failure to focus on one thing on their website

Some people think that the flea market approach is the best when they start building their websites and throw many ideas and business ideas into one website. This is terrible because it confuses your website visitors. If your website is a sales website you want to show your visitors one offer and one offer only. The more blinking banners and things that distract them on the page, the faster they will click away and the less money you will make in your internet home business.

Join get rich quick schemes online

There are always one group of people online that think that money is abundant online and can be made quickly though get rich quick schemes. Such people then are burnt as quickly as they came and then they go around the internet telling people that there is no way to make money online in any internet home business. Stay away from such get rich quick schemes and the popular adage is true "If it is too good to believe, it often is". There is no substitute for working hard online on your internet home business.

Fail to plan

Most people fail to plan their websites and marketing campaigns when starting an internet home business and often spend a huge amount of time and money to realize that they have nothing to show for their large amount of work done. Spend some time formulating your online business plan and when in doubt go to popular internet marketing forums and seek advice. Tweak and tweak your plan continually so as to achieve greater internet home business success.

Fail to track conversion ratios

This applies to any form of internet home business promotion be it products or of the business opportunity itself. Spend some time tweaking all parts of your website so as to achieve the best results. This can be in the form of headlines, sales copy, opt in hoverads. A good way to start is to write down a list of variables and spend time testing them weekly. The Top Internet Marketing Gurus spend a lot time doing this and you should too if you want to get more sales from your internet home business website.

In conclusion, spend some time reading through these seven common internet home business mistakes and try to avoid them as you build your internet home business. Making money online is a deliberate plan and takes a lot of planning to be executed well. May your online endeavours be fruitful!
