Turning Website Into A True Business

[NerdSmasher]

I have a few websites that I am currently making a profit off of, by selling products that I am affiliated with on clickbank, commission junction, and other sites like them. To be perfectly honest, I would like to sell my own product, but I'm trying to take this one step at a time.

What advice would you give to someone trying to turn a few websites that they own, run, manage, and advertise by themselves into a business? I know I can hire people on sites like elance.com, though I'm not completely sure that I trust them. What kind of people would I need to hire? How many? Where do I find all of the necessary people? And, probably most importantly, how do I manage them (especially if they're in a different state, or even country!)?

I really don't feel like running my business completely any more; and wish to expand. I know that this may not be the right company to expand, and perhaps I should just, essentially, start from scratch.

Any input on this is welcome
