How do you start? First ask yourself a question, "Would I jump into the middle of the ocean if I didn't know how to swim?" No matter what your background is or what kind of business you intend to start online, you absolutely have to obtain enough knowledge relating to Internet business to be successful.
Almost all online newsletters that you can subscribe to are free and come in your e-mail. They contain pieces of the Internet business puzzle that will enable your success. This is a fact --- believe it. All Internet experts (gurus) are stumbling over each other to get you on their sign-up list. This ultimately permits them to promote and sell their products to you.
But, in order to get you interested and signed-up, they must first give you something for free. They are very happy to share knowledge with you that is practical and helpful. They sell their "elite and complete knowledge" of a topic and give you little chunks of good information from the "elite" product little by little in each successive newsletter.
What the experts give you for free, are newsletters that always contain bits and pieces of the "elite" package of their knowledge, ideas, and advice.

Picking the right business for yourself is not always easy. Most people have talents, passions, and knowledge relating to certain areas of interest. It could be just a hobby that you have been spending time on for years. Pick something that drives your passion.
Doing that will help you focus on the experts who write newsletters or articles (called ezines) relating to your ideas for a business.
Subscribe to and read as many newsletters published on your topic as you can. Because you will be obtaining small bits of information at a time, it will take a while to become comfortable with starting the business you are looking at. Persistence is necessary.
