How much does it cost to start an internet business ?

Before we even start with this topic I would like to state that there is NO business out there that is worth doing if it is free.... It has never been easier to setup an internet business from the comfort of your own home.The internet literally opened up thousands of legitimate business opportunities. One of the biggest misconceptions that people have is that the internet is free.There is no such thing as a free business,if someone claims that ,be very careful. The positive side is that starting an internet business can be done with very little start-up costs compared to a brick and mortar business. First off,you would need the obvious such as a pc/laptop and internet. If you don't have that COUNT it towards your start-up capital before you make an informed decision about starting up an internet business. Secondly ,you would need to purchase some system that you can follow to profit with your internet business.The system that I am using was $349. Thirdly, you would need to set aside monthly fees for hosting and advertising.The system that I'm using cost around $149 per month and I also set aside about $300 per month for advertising. The nice thing about the internet is that you can market your products in a lot of free ways such as articles,videos,forums and social media to name a few. So lets count it all up assuming that you already have a laptop and access to the internet and that you are making use of free advertising methods. Once-off cost for the system = $ 349 Monthly fees for hosting = $149 This is an example of one of the thousands of systems available out there.These fees include everything you need to start your own internet business within a few days.These fees also includes training,websites and products.There are higher investment opportunities available within the system but this is the only fees required to start your internet business.

Social Network Internet Forum Idea - As an avid car enthusiast I am an active member and poster on many different car forums. Of course I wont give away all the details but I want to start a sort of social networking forum for a specific niche. For quite some time I have been wanting to have a business that is simple, easy to run, and low cost. As, a college student I stay fairly busy so an internet forum seems to fit the bill. From my research I have found that forums can be difficult to start but I feel my idea will be very successful due to the special niche it would fill. While I have tons of experience with internet forums, I have little/no experience with the technical aspects such as website design, internet hosting, etc. Seeing how low cost is a must, I obviously can not afford to hire a professional and this has led me to consider finding a website design/computer major on campus to help. Again, since I am on a tight budget I could not offer them much in the way of payment other than a stake in any future income the forum might accrue and that the project would be a great resume builder! This is one of the major obstacles I am faced with and I am looking for any resources or advice people would be willing to give. A crash course in the technical aspects of forum design/hosting would be great! Any insight, ideas, and advice would be welcome. Of course, this is a long shot but I am hopeful that with hard work I can make this idea a reality. Thanks, dtmpower

Help to start a Web-Based Business - I’ve well thought of plan for internet based business. Unfortunately, I don't have any web design knowledge or experience at all. I know how to start and run a traditional business but I have no idea where to start with web design. I realize it's a huge dilemma for the type of business I'd like to start but I'd like to give it a shot. If anyone has any insight or guidance I'd appreciate the feedback. Should I hire a web-hosting company, ask a friend with a computer science degree for some help, or throw the idea out the window like so many others...? Thank you.
Re: How To Use Free Promotions For Your Internet Business? - David makes a good point here, there are many internet marketers who are trying to build their businesses part time and internet marketing is a pretty time consuming job if you want to do it for free or very little cost. I think that one needs to work out the amount of capital they have to invest in their business versus the time constraints they have and then outsource some of the tasks that consume the major part of their time.
