This initial venture into the cyber world should be basic, unless you happen to be doing e-commerce and selling everything under the sun. Although that would just make you another Ebay or Amazon. No, you’re better or should I say, unique. You offer a product that even Ebay doesn’t sell. And what would that be, you ask? Nobody said it would be a cinch and that’s Your immediate response is probably to make money of course. It’s the same reason you could have opened a pizza parlor, gone into insurance sales, or offer plumbing repairs. Yet, they all have something in common: they fill a need. So, getting back to that website of yours, will or does it fill a need, or provide services or goods that the public demands? So does every other business that exists or will exist.

But, because there are so many different facets to society and so many people using the net, the opportunities still abound. The best way to get going is to: (a) create a new idea, (b) copy an old idea and make it better, (c) or cheaper, (d) or easier to use. The patent office is filled with designs that changed a single part of an existing invention. But that one alteration created a better product, that might have eventually outsold the original. So, once more, so I can hear you, why are you building the website? Hopefully, it’s to solve a problem, fill a niche or need, or provide a benefit. If and when it makes you money will be determined by what you charge, how you advertise, and if you have done your preliminary homework. Rewards don’t always have to be monetary, for you or your customer. Building a terrific website that does everything well can be fulfilling in itself. Then you’ll be working for fun and profit.
