Starting an Online Business

Find a business that you like, because each person may have a difference ....
after that, start planning ....

 

in a nutshell do your research thoroughly and make sure you budget on everything, allow yourself a grace period of about six months and you may stumble on the billions otherwise you will have to be content on survival.

 

thanks for all of your reply guys... really appreciate it! 

 

You need a promotion for your website.. let others know about your online store...without that you will not be able to receive any orders.. Can you tell me is your website ready to be published on the web?

 

SEO is a slow but steady process. If you want to generate sales right away as soon as your website is fully functioning, try learning about PPC (Pay Per Click) Advertising. PPC can help your online business grow tremendously...you just need to take the right steps. I'm currently doing well now with PPC...4 figures a month isn't that bad. If you want to start learning about PPC, I suggest you go over at http://www.ppcacademy.com/freetips

 

i suggest you offer a service or product for free to begin with, build up a userbase before you decide to charge, its low risk, unlikely to fail if the product is good enough

 

Don't pay more than ten bucks for hosting. Especially since your starting out and learning the biz.

 

You have nice thought to start a new online business you have options of any service that you can provide or you can start an affiliate marketing to earn money.

 

SEO services business is cheap and easy i think u go ahead. Am also a Snr. SEO

 

Hi,

Launchin a website offering seo and web design service won't cost you much.

The cost including (domain + web hosting+web design) would be around $150-200.Not more than this.

Go for simple web design having 5 or 6 pages like

Home Page
About Us Page
Web Design Page
Seo Page
Contact Us Page

After launching it, try to capture local area market.

For instance, if you are living in West Palm Beach, South Florida,then add title of your website as West Palm Beach Web Design Company or West Palm Beach Seo Company.

In Seo and web design field being a big fish in small pond is more beneficial than targeting being a small fish in big sea(targeting high competitive keywords like seo services,web design services etc).

Targeting local area will result in faster search engine ranking and more success than going for big competitive keywords.

Hi,

Can anyone help me where to find clients?

 

i started my business with £100,

 

wow! what is your business then?

 

Is it realistic to say that you can get 25 clients in 3 months or better to say in 6 months?

 

my business is classic football, rugby shirts, printing,
started small, now its my full time job

 

What type of business you want to start

 

me and my friends would want to start and SEO Services business.

 

You would need a domain name(namecheap.com or godaddy.com) which costs around 10 dollars a year and a hosting(hostgator.com) company which costs about 19 dollars per month.

 

Pretty much all you need to do is have is have a product that a particular targetted demographic want,find a way to get it to them,and get ready to deal with their questions and objections on a regular basis

That all in all does not cost more than $500
