    As Starter, You should go for learn about anyone topic on which you can show your interest. I think building website of your interesting niche and then attach it with adsense will be best for you as starter and then you can go for affiliate marketing too through your blog.

    Ecommerce is an interesting business yet relatively easy to get off the ground. It's not as sexy as an app or indeed SAAS but it creates real value (and importantly, revenue!).

    auslion, as this is your first post in WF it would appear that you haven't asked questions in other biz-oriented threads?

    Go and check out all the other threads, not just eCommerce, and see what types of business they are running. There is a veritable plethora of ideas, models, hacks and scams for you to choose from.

    Read all the conversations. Learn about the challenges and opportunities offered by each model. Educate yourself. Ask questions when someone is discussing a particular business model. Dive in to the details.

    WF is brimming with incredible information.

    Then perhaps come back and ask specifics regarding eCommerce. There are many models even just within eCommerce.

    Your question is very open-ended and suggests that you haven't researched the topic first for yourself?

    Simple, if you take your time/cost to setup a platform where IT is 5% of business revenue, you can extrapolate the rest of the time/cost to hit balanced revenue ie. return on investment.

    Affiliate marketing is a great business to start up. Also selling on Amazon and Ebay are great ways to make money online. It really does depend on what your interests are but just pick one and go with it.

    Selling on Amazon is a great way to get started. Have a look at Amazon FBA. For a successful online business, you'll need to source a product which will sell and net you a profit.

    Sorry to break it to you, but you're going to have to do a little work to help yourself out here!

    I started selling online during my second year of university - I found a Chinese B2B website and made my first bulk order during a video editing class (my tutor wasn't very impressed when she saw what I was doing...) By the time I graduated, I had a fully functioning online business with an employee. There's certainly something to be said for starting a business during your time at university.

    There are thousands of great business ideas out there, you just need to land on one. No one is going to give you an idea, you'll have to find it for yourself.

    Best of luck with the rest of your studies!

    Hey so this question is awesome and also very broad. The great thing about the internet is that you can basically turn any interest or hobby in to a profitable niche online.

    You see you are more than likely not alone in the passions you have. So if you know a lot about a subject or hobby make a how to series and sell that how to series online. If you are really in to sales, find some affiliate offers to promote and sell. If you are in to building websites offer it as a service....

    Those are just a few of many different avenues you have available to you. I absolutely love the internet because of the vast possibilities available to us.
