i have been doing alot of research on my business. If you know what you want to do just check out what other websites have on thiers. I just started mine about a month ago and it has been a struggle to get it out there. Also the best thing to do is see how many websites that there is out there because the company that i have has alot of distributers out there. Its like shopping at one of the many Walmarts.
Good luck
To give you an example, My website has to do with Herbalife. Just type it in the browser and you will see along list of them and see what I mean.
But not all of them have a discount like mine, Some have 5%, many have 10%, Right now mine is 15% only because I am running a special for the week.

Take a class at your local community college - in starting a small business.
Or go to the Small Business Association in your area for help. Do lots of research on the business you are interested in and see if it is feasible.
I'd love to tell you about the small buisness I'm in.

Find out as much as you can about licensing requirements in your area. Research potential competition. Look into small business loans from banks, and grants from the government. Get all the legal issues correct from the beginning, it's much easier than dealing with the hassle of fines later.
Check out the small business administration in your area:

It's called a business plan. Go to the library. Start taking responsibility now, or you're going to have problems. Owning your own business is not easy, and you need to take responsibility now.
