Hey sweetie
Cindy’s right, people get put off if they have to sign up for things and I agree with them as you’d have money all over the place if you signed up for all the accounts people use!
I have an ikobo account but haven’t used it yet, but as Cindy says Nochex are great, I just wish they’d go world wide (but that might lead to them getting crappy!!!!)
I have a PO box for safety reasons as I don’t want to give out my home address, it also means people can send cash (as long as it’s wrapped up and can’t be seen through the envelope!!!!) and postal orders and cheques.
I would say if you are in it for the money, it takes a bloody lot of work to get started, getting your site seen, advertising and building up trust (as a lot of guys get screwed over and then come to us thinking we’ll do the same) But it’s a lot of fun (apart from timewasters)
I’d start up on a free site like homestead or something, see how it goes and then buy it if it is successful (homestead is free for 30 days) I wouldn’t recommend getting a site built as it would cost a fortune and be a damned lot of hassle.
Hope that helps!
