Internet Marketing Pitfalls - Newbie Beware

There are many places you can find people who can help teach you the ins and outs of Internet Marketing but be fore warned. Some of the people who will give you advice don't really know what they are talking about. They are just handing you third hand information that they heard from someone else, it sounds good, but they haven't even tried it. So they REALLY don't know what they are talking about.

Another thing to watch out for are the so called Guru's. Yes there are people who live, eat, sleep and breath Internet Marketing. They know all there is to know about how to make money using the tactics they have adopted. So you might be asking right now...

Why should I watch out for the Guru's when they know it all?

You would think that they would be EXCELLENT mentors right? The thing is that they can send out an email and the next day they have $10,000 in their bank accounts. That is because they have existing lists. YOU DON'T! And it has been a very long time since this mentor has had to start from scratch (in most cases).

Also, because they have YEARS under their belt, they might have forgotten what it was like to be a newbie. So when they are teaching you, quite often they miss small but crucial pieces of the puzzle. It is these small pieces of the puzzle that will either make you rich or make you give up.

There are literally thousands of people willing to give you a hand. Just be careful what hand you take. You might be getting information that is either incomplete, obsolete or incorrect.

The best advice I can give you is to not jump at the first offer for mentorship that you run across. Even if it is free! Especially if it is free.

If someone offers to be your mentor, check into their credentials. How long they have been doing Internet Marketing, how successful they have been, if they have a product of their own that they sell, if they personally have affiliates for that product, etc...

Something else you could do is ask around. Find a Forum of Internet Marketers and ask some of the members there if they have heard of so-and-so.

Speaking of Forums, it is highly recommended that you join a forum. They are free and full of very valuable information. I suggest that if you do check out the Internet Marketer's Forums, just look around for awhile to get the feel for it. If something you read raises a question, use the forums search tool to see if there is a post that can answer it.
