I’ve been helping people develop online businesses for a long time, but I’ve yet to find a web site like this.

What I have discovered is that people who are new doing business on the Internet find it difficult if not impossible to get even their most basic questions answered. Information is scattered about on different web sites, it's almost always poorly written and there's too much technical content.

Starting-an-online-business.co.uk gives you the answers and explanations you need in readable and plain English.

I’m not offering an all-encompassing guide to setting up a business on the web, but what I can do for you is take a lot of the 'mystique' out of the subject.

Explaining the key essentials will help to dispel many of the doubts you currently have about starting an Internet business and give you a better understanding of the whole Internet ‘thing’.

The net benefit to you of reading this guide? You’ll feel more in control of the process and as a result, more confident about launching your Internet business.

Once you’ve read what I have to say, you’ll have sufficient knowledge to:

1. Choose the best possible name for your web site
2. Know what kind of web site you're going to need
3. Establish and develop your niche market
4. Be in a better position to negotiate a right price for building your web site
5. Understand how people are going to find your online business
6. Know what you must know to start an online business

I’m not promising to make you rich, teach you everything you need to know about starting a successful Internet business, or expose so-called ‘insider secrets’: remember if it sounds too good to be true it most definitely is.
