Online E-business, How to...? I have no clue!
Well... I have ideas of making quick money selling my softwares. (O; But i don't even* have a clue how to do a e-business. Is it like... websites are connected to merchent accunt and when the customer types the credit card number via. the buyers website; the price of software is utometically deducted from his master/visa card or pay pal and deposited to the sellers account autometically and when the tranjection is done the buyer gets his goods/softwares.......
But, frankly I don't know...What is the easiest way to start a E-commerce, What are the procedure, WHAT ARE THE BASIC REQUIREMENTS? how much does it cost for me to open this SELLERS ACCOUNT? Can i do it via pay pal? How do people cash their e-money?
......YA, :lol: i don't know anything... I don't even have a clue. Can anyone point me to the right direction????? Googling didn't help me either )O;
I only found topics like,
Reasons to Open Your Own Merchant Account, Why People Don't Buy From You? etc...
I need real basics.
Finally i understand, knowing all about the book 'Hack Proofing Your OS' and starting a e-business is completely different story.
Free downloads first...
Very often people jump into eCommerce without researching the market resulting to a downfall of the company... I would suggest starting out with giving free downloads to users and then begin charging for upgrades and support. You can make it big if it gains popularity ;-)
What kind of software do you program?
ummmm
hello hUNT3R dude its dexter....
may be we could have this topic in nepsecure itself ... anyway ...
seems like u r in a hurry to selll ur softwarezzzz..... well then u can just start by getting a paypal account..... the link to the paypal's payment gateway (which is provided by the paypal itself).. they give many demo links with which u can start with .. n' i guess it is free as well.... they just deduct certaion percentage from each transaction ... u just need an email address to open a paypal accouint.... BUT ... paypal doesn't allow to administer the account from nepal .... even if u do they'll freeze the account after 4 or 5 attempts.... so if u r not in nepal this won't be a problem .... but if u r then u have to look for other options...
other options could be buying a merchant account... which is just like a bank .... lets say its a virtual bank ... for example ...when people buy things from ur site .. money is deposited in this virtual bank n' once the bank gets confirmation of the delivery .. then the money is transfered to ur bank account ... it could be any bank account of a bank that has atleast SWIFT code... they also provide many demo links to start with and there is also a manual for every steps .... n' i don't think this will be a problem to you..... for merchant account i suggest you of 2checkout.com or authorize.net's ... they are cheap and good.... good support as well... its around $49 or so ... and 2checkout doesn't have any monthly charges ... they charge for every transaction.. n' this is how they make $$$$ ... these companies are good to start with...
i hope this will be a help to you...
again i wud like to discuss this in nepasecure :-)
