I am looking at starting up an internet business. I do not know where to start. What I know so far is this is a personal research website for hard to find goods. People will come to the website; they will ask a question, the question will be automatically logged for me to view only. I will then be able to prepare the answer. Once I have done this another automatic email will be sent to the client with a link back to the website - through which he will be offered the information he requested for a finder?s fee. Then if the client decided he wants the full answer he will pay online using a credit card and the necessary information will be emailed to him. Perhaps the idea needs to be improved upon, any comments would be greatly welcomed. Q. My question is how can I make this happen ? what do I need to do, I am not very internet literate nor business minded and so need some big help. I also need a business plan, contacts and anything else you feel may help. Looking forward to you answer! | |

I don't see how you would have any competitive advantage over business models like Google Answers. You would be offering 1 person to answer questions compared to hundreds, you would not have the brand name, and you would not have the distribution. Things to think about before you start investing in this. |

I think, Its always good to do some experiment, if you can provide something unique and useful for the users then It can always have business for you. Google is a big name but it does not mean that innovation and experiments should stop here, One can add some new and innovative ideas in the service any time. It was just a comment, Now how to do it, It would require following steps, I believe 1) First of all you have to come up with a through and professional requirement specification added with your ideas that how actually you want it with some form of prototype. You can also assign this task to someone. 2) After that the web site providing this service should be developed and deployed. 3) The main thing is that what you provide is unique in some sense and you market it very well on the internet, The best website top market on the internet could be Yahoo or other most visited website. In my knowledge there is a group which works on ideas and they can help you on this very well within your budget of US$ 2000/-- Go and contact them at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/techages/ Kind Regards, Ehsan Baig |
