Default If I had to start over I would......

Hi everyone I'm new to this site and new to affiliate marketing. I have to say this is a excellent site I've learned a good bit just from reading some of the post.

I wanted to ask you. Knowing what you know now. If you had to start all over again what would you do with your marketing? Step 1, step 2, step 3 etc..

I know I'm going to make mistakes and I'm ready for that, I want to learn from the Pros (you guys) what are some mistakes you would avoid if you could start back over again.

Thanks

1 - Follow the choosing your first niche guide
2 - ensure the niche you chose can be monortorized (instead of sub niches)
3 - If using wordpress install the All in one SEO plugin.

Hi 1million1,

Welcome to 5 Star. Thanks for joining us.

I hope people answer your question here too, because you put it in an easy 1-2-3 format.

But additionally if you want to read TONS and TONS of answers to that question, here are 22 pages of great insights.

If You HAD to Start Over - What would you do Differently???

Also am moving this post out of the SEO forum since it's not about SEO
and moving it over to the newbie forum.

The number one thing I would have done, and you are doing it if you are reading this, is join a good affiliate forum like this one to learn and ask questions. I had no idea this industry was as big as it was when I started, all the help out there and how helpful people can be.
