Big Mistakes Many Network Marketers Make On Their Websites

There are plenty of different ways to make good decisions regarding your network marketing business.  You could make just as many mistakes.  Therefore, as you consider which methods to employ in your quest for the best business out there, try to avoid a few of these mistakes.  Many leading entrepreneurs are warning that they could be the way out of business.

1:  Don't Make The Flash Intro Mistake

The flash intro is a heavily debated topic.  Some believe that this is a good way to introduce the website to your guests.  Others believe that it is a total waste of your prospects time.  Compare it to a commercial and how willing you are to change the channel instead of watching the commercial.  Prospects are most likely to do the same thing.  In addition to this, another downfall of the flash intro is that it keeps the search engines away, which could further harm your chances in a competitive marketplace.

2:  Animated Buttons

Animated buttons fall along the same lines as using flash intros.  They are likely to cause a number of problems, including being annoying to your prospects.  The problem is they do not attract a customer's eye, but they annoy them and they tend to close pages with too many of these listed, too.

3:  Employ Inappropriate Soundtracks

Using soundtracks on some websites works well, but on others, it is not warranted.  Some prospects will be driven away, especially if you have a soundtrack that repeats itself repeatedly.

4: Not Employing A Copywriter

If your website is not looking too grand you can fix that one thing yourself.  However, remember that most websites can benefit from a good copywriter.  The key is to get your point across and to do that you need clear, precise content.  Long-winded, fluff stuffed content is not going to sell your product, service or your business in any way.  Hiring a professional does not have to be costly.  If you believe your content is quality enough, have someone else look before you dismiss this notion.

5. Pop Ups Out Of Control

While some websites warrant the use of pop ups, using them correctly is the key.  In some situations, they are going to backfire on you instantly.  For example, if a prospect wants to learn more, clicks on a link to take them to the "more" information, but they are facing a pop up that not only is in their way but also takes forever to load, they are more likely to close off the entire website and go elsewhere to find the information.  This is particularly painful at the end, when a prospect is trying to leave your site.  It looks desperate and it often results in a bad taste in their mouths.

While your business may not be in designing websites, it most definitely is in attracting a client base.  This often means providing key information to your clients on a timely basis that has proper delivery.  Keep them happy and they will be more profitable to you.
