I want to start a website and sell something online. What should I sell? Any advice?

If you want to start an online business and sell something, you should sell a digital product, because physical products have two real problems:

  1. Unless you manufacture the product yourself, someone else will be undercutting your price on eBay within 6 months.
  2. Margins are tight. Inventory and shipping cost real money and take time.

  • Digital products are the best way to go do the reasons mentioned in this article.

    It cost very little to produce and re-produce digital products and delivery is all done on autopilot, so it’s literally a hands-free way to be in business after the product is designed.

  • Honestly. That is horrible advice. What is a digital product even? An E-book? Software? an App? Those take skill to produce and update as well. Reselling of products is one thing to do. Drop shipping can be done with some products. Or produce something yourself, like the above “Advice” tells you not to. There is no easy way to make money or to sell. Sell something of value, something you can get behind, something that fills a niche need.

  • I totally agree with Renegade – build once and sell often provides the highest profit margin compared to reselling. Jonathan – your remarks are totally off base.

  • I say RENEWABLE ENERGY products! go to my site at EnergySupplyStore.com
    at the bottom of each store-tab there is an option to sell these products on your own website.
