It was many years ago when I ventured online and began my venture working from home. I will admit I made mistakes; I got nowhere fast and with the help of more successful work at home moms I began to see why my initial strides fell flat.
Top 5 Mistakes Made:
- Joining forums and only posting ads and links.
- Only sending links on social networks.
- Buying leads and unknowingly spam.
- Posting ads on link farms and/or free classifieds sites.
- Buying cheap ads on sites not in their market.
I did all of these except the buying of leads and spamming, but I was new when safelists where all the rage. Those were for me as useless as if I had bought leads. Until I found good, solid information and helpful people who were successfully working at home.
