With the financial problems we are all facing right now, many people are turning to the internet in the hope of being able to earn a living that way.

Starting an online business or ebusiness is quite easy to do in principle. There are no overhead costs and start up costs are minimal. The most common type of business on the internet is Internet Marketing or IM, as this is the simplest, requiring no stock of physical products.

However it is a very steep learning curve and pretty difficult to succeed.

There is so much information out there, in fact there is too much, leading to information overload and you can end up spending a lot of money just trying to learn it all.

This blog is basically a complilation of questions and answers asked about IM which may help you along the way.

Manuel asked:


Hello everyone, I’m trying to find some legitimate work from home business that is completely 100% free to join and become a member(No Credit Card Required).
But if there is a work from home business that requires some kind of pay to join or become a member I wouldn’t mind as long it’s legit and it pays well. Please answer only if either you have gotten paid from the home business site you are recommending. Or you are 100% sure your home business site you are recommending is legit. Thanks very much.

I am in the process of setting up a small business on eBay. I am planning to open a featured eBay Store in which I sell consumer electronics. I was wondering what my business checklist should look like, including the legal aspect such as licenses, permits, and incorporation. I am incorporating in the state of Massachusetts. Thanks a lot.

Without giving away my idea to the whole world, the online business would be an online portal of sorts. I’d imagine it would be setup in a way more like Facebook or Myspace.
