A few things you may not know:
Some of the people who have responded to you on this thread are successful website builders.
Others are successful entrepreneurs who have taken their "ideas" and made them real-- real money earners.
Like millions of dollars.
So some of the advice you're getting here is pretty darn good.
I'm an idea guy, too.
I've developed systems that became worldwide standards within 18 months.
I've seen things from a different perspective-- and learned how to make money on those ideas.
I finally figured out that being the idea guy was fun-- but it really didn't make me millions.
So I did that somewhere else.
Now I've got my millions, and I can spend each day having fun w/my ideas.
It's a good life.
But something is important, that I'd like you to hear from an old-timer like me:
An idea isn't worth cow poop by itself.
I kid you not.
(and I'm not interested in your idea-- so no worries about me stealing it)
What's worth money is taking that idea, and developing all the infrastructure around it to have it actually make money.
THAT is the hard part.
All that infrastructure stuff.
You may think your idea is worth millions.
But until it can be successfully implemented, it's nothing.
Hope this doesn't burst your bubble-- not my intent.
Just want you to see that you might have a great car-- but without gas, it ain't going nowhere.
At this point, you have an idea about what makes a great car.
But you don't have the car built yet.
And you don't have the gas, either.
So get to work. That's what this site is all about! :banana:
