Starting an online business is not rocket science, but it's very easy to fail if you are not careful either. Below I will try to outline some of the steps you can to increase your chances of success.

1. Decide what you want to do. it is very important that you do someting you enjoy doing. I suggest evaluating your interests first.
2. Carry out keyword research.
3. Register a domain.
4. Create your web site.
5. Market it.

You Can Also Use Subdomain And Host Free As Trap17 For This Business

For steps 3 & 4, trap17 can fulfil it but as for steps 2 and 5, can you explain in details like the tools or sites involved?

Which field you are interested with??

Don't ever go to the much popular fields like Hosting, ect..

Stick with unique or new ideas. That makes much benefit on future.

answer the questions: what do people want? want do you want but its too expensive or doesnt exist? what makes you mad?...then think of things that can fulfill that void. think and grow rich.

one thing that is missing from your web business...

What are you selling??? What can you provide that no one else has done, or can you do it better than your competition.

My aim with my (real world) business is to provide cut price Computer services for those who can't afford it.

And for those who can afford it, IT support when they need it.

Who are your target groups???? (who do you want to sell your product to)

there is so much that goes in to internet marketing, it can be VERY confusing to a person just starting to learn this outline. it's a good general outline, but within that, there literally 100's of things you can do within this outline.

#1 on the list is self explainatory. basically your website will reveolve around a hobby or an interest you have vast knowledge about AND something you enjoy(even if internet marketing isn't something you enjoy:))

#2 some would disagree that this should be #2 and creating your website should come next. since this is internet marketing and making money or driving traffic to your website, i think finding good keywords to employ should be #2. overture or wordtracker are great tools to find many targeted keywords for your website. you want to try to find the keywords that everyone ISN'T using compared to how many people search for those keywords. EXAMPLE would be that you would want to target a keyword that was googled 1000 times that month with only 1000 web pages(other websites) incorporating that same keyword.....RATHER THAN targetting a keyword that gets googled 100,000 times that month with 1,000,000 webpages incoroprating that same keyword. with this strategy, your competition is less, and your chances of getting to the 1st page of any search engine is much greater which means your rewards will be greater. DONT be general with your keywords. use 2-4 words as your targeted keyword phrase. i like using 3 words for a key word phrase. also, only target 2-3 keywords(key word PHRASES) on each page of your website. do NOT use the same keywords for the different pages on your website! this will allow you to market each page seperate and each page will have a GREATER chance of being on the first page of a search result. if your website's main subject is fish, don't use a keyword "fish". use something more specific such as "tropical fish" which is still too general but better than just fish. or use a keyword phrase even more specific like "fresh water tropical fish". this is only on the top of my head without researching through wordtracker which i recomend HIGHLY!

#3 is to register your domain, but i would personally create a website first before thinking of a domain name and registering it. why? because you can view your finished product first and the name of your domain will come to you easier and it will be able to fit in with the content of your website better. also, there is a marketing strategy in choosing your domain name. some search engines like one of your main keywords written within your domain name. also, you want a domain name that is easy to remember and easy to type. successfull websites have built their business around this marketing strategy. "ebay" or "amazon". both these domains are easy to remember and easy to type. in fact, amazon is a word everyone has heard of before so that worked GREAT for them as a marketing strategy.

#4 which i would put at #3 is building your website. you really need to do research on SEO or search engine optimization because there is just way to much to list in building your webpages in order for them to be marketable....especially in the search engines. you have to deal with your title and description meta tags, your keyword tags and your keyword density within your webpage, your img alt attributes, your headlines, your outbound and same site text and urls, first paragraph of your body text, what inbound links you want from other websites(very important now), and much more to consider in preparing your website properly in order to market it properlyand get some good quality traffic to it. also, leave room on each of your pages for new fresh content so you can update your page monthly...but weekly is better! the search engines LOVE fresh new content on your web pages! not alot of people update their webpages and find their sites quickly dropping in webpages. the more you update, the better chance you will gain better ranks than those who don't update regularly!

#5 is to market it. again, this is another area which you need to research the different areas. but i will quickly go through the main ingredients to market it. first, you need to submit your site to all search engines and directories. key thing about this is to MANUALLY submit your site to the top ten search engines and directories. there is one exception. DO NOT screw with submitting your site to google. let the google spider find YOU. you do this by posting on trap17 or other high profile forums on the net. google should pick ya up within a week so don't sweat google. google would much rather find your site than you submitting your site manually or automatically. google has always been about relevency and if the spider has found your site, then google will think your site is more relevent than those who just submitted their site manually or automatically. make sense? i hope so. after you spend a day submitting your site and each individual relevant web page, then write and article and a press release about your site and what it has to offer(hopefully if you created it right, you are offering something that other similar contect websites do NOT offer, and you have set yourself apart from the crowd by doing that). go find some forums to post in. stay within the topic of your website, use your keywords within your post, and ALWAYS use your website url as your signiture to your site and incorporate some keywords within your signature as well. you have now started your one way incoming links that are very relevant to your website. google LOVES these! post in these forums at least once a week. now enter one of your main keywords in google and do a search. copy and past the top 50 urls in to wordpad, and save it. start with the top url and visit that page. find the webmaster or owners email address and write to them. tell them that your site can compliment theirs and ask them if they can put your link on their site somewhere . go down the list and keep writing those letters. this is marketing. it's tedious. check out relevant newsgroups and post in them using the same techniques as i mentioned in your forums postings. create a blog and post to it EVERY DAY and incorporate your web pages within your blogging. RESEARCH internet marketing and seo WEEKLY since internet marketing is like buying a computer. once you do it, some of it gets outdated a month later. keep up to date! and spend at least 1/2 hour a day in these basic marketing techniques. keep killing the pipline so there is always a fresh flow of marketing going out so new visitors can see your site and come in. allow 6 months before seeing any results compared to the first day you published your website on the internet. it's a slow proccess. if you FAIL to fill the pipeline by not spending 1/2 hour a day to market your site and update your site, then the pipline will slow down which wont allow people to see your site to enter it. do not for ANY REASON think that once you have the traffic you need, you can stop what you were doing before. this will slow down your pipeline and you'll wonder where all your visitors went. if you want traffic, you need to spend at least 1/2 hour a day FOREVER trying to market it and updating your website with fresh content.

anyway, there is a ton of things you can do. i just went over the basics. even though what i refer to as basics, don't fool yourself. these basics lay a foundation to what can become something big if you continue to put effort in to it. these basics alone can put some of your web pages on the #1 page of a search result based on your keyword phrase and can easily draw in 1000 visitors a day after 6 months of persistance. want a little extra money? put adsense ads on your website. research the proper way to do this by blending the back ground color, using vertical ads on the left side of your page, horizontal on the bottom, and a couple blended in within the body of your site. don't put crap on top or on the left. there is a psychology to google adsense and how to place the ads and even the colors you use for them but that's more advanced marketing, sorry. what are you going to do with the extra money earned through adsense? ADWORDS! your adsense can literally pay for your adwards account if done right....but don't be too quick to use adwords unless you have the money up front to pay for a campaign.

that's about it boys and girls. if you have any questions, write 'm to me here or pm me. i'm always happy to answer any questions. there are more advanced areas of marketing, but this is a good overview and a good start for anyone who had the question "how can i start an online business and how can i market in on the internet?". there are many ways. this is just one way.
