what's fair in equity sharing?

[yveskleinsky]

Hi everyone,

I have been working with a computer guy in hopes of turning some of my ideas into websites. He is willing to work for equity shares, however, I don't know what would be a fair proposition. I also don't know that much about web advertising and to what extent he could effectively help me launch my idea. Has anyone launched a site using equity shares for co-founders? Does anyone have tips on how to effectively launch a site with web advertising? Should I look for bloggers? Man, you would think I'm like 90 years old with how little I know about e-commerce! Any guidance here would be helpful!
