9) Undercooking the pizza

Don't be overly hasty when it comes to the cooking process. Nothing will shut down your excitement quicker than biting into raw pizza dough. You can keep a close eye on the crust toward the end, but when in doubt, leave the pizza in the oven for a few minutes longer than you think it needs. If you made sure the oven was hot enough beforehand, it should cook up quickly and efficiently. That said, all ovens cook differently, so take note of the cooking times that work best for yours.
