1). Always plan. you need to be sure about what you are doing, and how you are going to do it. - Make sure that it is legal - Check that people want what you are (selling) to them - Find out more about what you are doing or selling, become a novice expert in it, so you can answer any question thrown at you - MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE TIME TO DO IT. Whilst it might sound fun to have an internet business on the sideline... when people start to get impatient and it is down-rated, you are wasting lots of money in profits.
2). Make sure you have, or can find the requirements to make your online business. - If you arn't a webdesigner, make sure you can find the necessary elements from seperate companies, that will build it for you. - YOU MUST HAVE FULL CONTROL over your website. Don't get hosted with companies that don't register the domain in your name... etc. - Have the skill to do it. You don't want to make an expert technical computer support site, and not be able to answer any questions...
3). Don't go rushing ahead. It might sound pleaseant to buy your domain (and) hosting before you know exactly what you are doing, yet when you can't get it off of the ground, then you will have wasted money. There are a few people I know who bought resellers, and paid hundreds over the year, without a single customer. - Plan where you will advertise (if you are going to) - Plan the customer support systems - Plan the website design and customer panels - Plan every scrap of website page to make sure you are fully in control of every account.
Lastly... and most importantly... DON'T MAKE A BUSINESS THAT YOU WILL HATE RUNNING! You will no doubt shut it down soon-after. Plus make sure you have the time!
Thanks, CJ Lastly, please visit Ezyrewards better for US people, but completely amazing for anyone, even international. You can get free domains and hosting from there!
I think the most important thing is that you know what you're doing. I think it's especially important that an online business owner must understand webmastering and design, or else they'll have to rely on someone else to do the work, and that costs a lot of money.

So...what your really saying is...control your money and make sure you get off ground.

I think he is kind of agreeing that it's no use opening, say, ebay, and then not being able to administer it, causing fraud and then you will be shut down. Someone else will TAKE your idea!
Also make sure you get expert with your hosting an go with a host that looks professional and which has a good track record - doesn't have to be a big company like 1&1. You will find smaller is usually better.

entirely different from the existing networks and will create a revolution in the Cafe & Gaming
networks. Since this new idea requires implementation of latest technologies and hardwares, its
cost of implementation will be high. It also requires the expertise in the areas of Networking,
database management and OS shell Programming. I can manage the technical side very well, and l....
