E-commerce Shop- Anyone got one?

[AllGone]

I've recently been looking into starting an online business and have looked particularly into setting up an online shop. Not sure what product or service I'm going to sell as there is still loads of research to do.

I was just wondering since a few on here do AP full-time and as well as others perhaps spend a good few hours behind the computer each day; has anyone thought of doing this or currently run a online business?

Any experiences or thoughts?

I've been doing AP since the early days and have started several online businesses during that time. I've had websites promoting affiliate programmes, Google Adsense, Ebay, etc.

About 4 years ago I started offering an online ghostwriting service (which is basically writing content for websites) and have gone on from there. It ties in perfectly with AP and I have honestly never known there to be so much work available as there is now. I don't know if you know anything about Google but there was reently something called the Panda update and it has emerged that good quality content on websites is more important than ever to get good search engine rankings.....therefore the demand for writing has gone up even more

I still do some of the writing myself but mostly outsource it so it leaves plenty of time for AP and free time.

I've got quite a bit of experience with other online stuff, ie, affiliate marketing, blogs, promoting products through jv's so if there is anything in particular you had in mind give me a shout and I will help you if I can.

Thanks mojo that sounds fantastic. I'm currently just researching at the moment, but a big part of growing the business will be marketing, blogs etc, so will send you a pm or something near the time.

Thanks

I have been doing the same for about 11 years now but from losing money and spending more than what I make I can tell you what we all do here is the only SURE thing I have found so far. We all are making money week after week doing sign ups ,taking bookie offers and finding ARBS . Thats quite the opposite of what you hear out there in the Internet Bussiness world .Only a fraction of those involved make money and newbies are preyed upon by the Internet sharks and the Clickbank fraudsters pushing the latest Internet Money machine that will make you rich overnight much like the Betfair system vendors pushing stuff that NEVER works.
I am myself involved in a couple of ventures right now and I could PM you some info if You want. Very little money involved actually (By little I mean under 100) Hope You find what you are looking for. Be Careful out there .
