First, pick one category of products. Sites that try to sell everything do not do well (unless you're WalMart or Amazon).
Second, electronics, computer gear, and DVDs are difficult to sell profitably online. The markup on these items is usually very small to begin with. Then you're usually up against major players who can buy in bulk and sell cheap. Most buyers in these markets are buying on price. Third, look for products with a high markup - be sure to compare against real prices you can find online - not the MSRP since almost nobody sells for that price. I usually like to see a minimum of 30%. This gives me room to run special deals. There are alot of products that will give you keystone markup (100%). Jump on those. -Ramprof Get Your Free Drop Shipping Ebook at http://www.dropshipprofessor.com/ebook
I recommend you first start with a free
website. Try to generate traffic to the site and if its successful then go for a paid hosting service.. Because if you set up a site and are paying monthly fees and you don't have traffic you might as well go open a store in outer space.... Most people think that just because they have a website that they going to make a ton of dough....The reality is that it don't happen that easy. I have a e-crater store and in the three months that I've had it sold (1) item... Google ads words is costing and arm & leg and no sales...it takes a long time to start making money.... ** Link Removed: Only Available to Registered Members** ** Link Removed: Only Available to Registered Members** John
