Get traffic.

Get paid.

Does France have laws against launching services that have yet to produce anything, including income?

If so then maybe you should look into registration.

If you want to avoid law problems, you need a lawyer, not strangers.

Since it's an online website , can I register it in another country ?

Sorry for being a fun-spoiler, but I think you should have done more background research before implementing your business idea. The good news is that the internet is full of answers, however it requires a 'can-do' attitude

All the best with your venture!

Then you have to do the research, nobody will do the hard work for you.

Of course that's not what I'm trying to avoid , but just get advices from people who may have done the same thing

Nobody can really give you advice on something we don't know, and most people on here are not big fans of "give me advice" posts as first posts.. Just read through the threads on here, maybe you will find some answers. But the research is something you have to do for your own.

You don't even realize what learning opportunities you are exposed to! Just check internet, browse your local library catalog for relevant sources, check YouTube videos etc. Believe me, the process of learning is exciting - it's like building a puzzle, one minute you feel lost and then you find that missing puzzle part...believe me, looking for missing puzzle parts is going to be rewarding...the glorious final picture is going to be you, enjoying the fruits of your success.

Bear in mind: you are already one step ahead of people who are subconsciously incompetent, because you are consciously aware of your incompetency in the specified area, the next step is opening your multi-billion gygabite processor (aka brain) and stuffing it with the new knowledge!

If you're really this new and unknowledgable, the good news is you haven't learned any bad habits. A website is just a portal where your customers interact with your business. Time to build the business.

I am in a similar position as you- just started my membership website. I would definitely recommend making some form of a business plan to get your idea and valuation cleared up. Now, it comes down to getting traffic (users) to your site. How you do this is the trick- marketing your site in creative ways to attract your target population.

Google is your friend, books etc,also,ask other people around you or that you know personally or might have some interest or reason to help you. Alternatively help someone out with your skills or resources and ask/get them to help you in return.

No expert on French law- or any law for that matter- however, I would say two thing to consider are your liability and tax.
I would be surprised if there is anything illegal about making money online without registering - it is such a common place activity with the various online market and auction site. However, if you make sufficient money then the government will likely want a share- In most cases the easiest mechanism to manage this is to have some form of company registered in-line with local laws. You can of course declare this personally in many jurisdiction.

Another issue is liability- if you start trading in any form you expose yourself to bad debt and various potential other issues- copyright infringement, personal injury.. whatever. Your personal exposure to this will depend on local law. A registered company, depending on it structure, can in some cases limit your personal liability.

I would also look at what your USP is for your sit - If brand promotion is key then look at trademarking.

Salut MoncefL,

I am french too, and just few months older than you on this forum. You've just pushed the right door, since they are many strong guys here to follow... and some of them already answered you on this post. Just remenber two things here... (and I will try to answer your question after that, since I am french too).

- If you have read MJ's book, you already know that the good starting point is to give first. It's not a commercial rule here, but that is the proper way to be aware about the entrepreneurship process... At this point, you should wonder how can I help these guys, they new the music better than me. That's not a question of entrepreneurship mastery. Everybody has something to give, and everybody has something to learn. Give some details about you, your background (you're a programmer, that's a very interesting profession for many of us there, since you are able to go throught the internet and software barriers), your special skills... try to answerto some posts relating to your skills, and follow some sympathics guys here...

- The most part of people here are not french... so, when you speak about entrepreneurship's laws, school,... keep in mind that they are not working on the same frame. Sometimes, you will also have to change your point of view on some cultural subjects, but it's a good exercise too...

TO ANSWER TO YOUR QUESTION :

I am not a law specialist, but what I understood about our specific rules about commerce is that, as soon as you start to easn money in France, you have to be registered. It can be easy since you can start with an "autoentrepreneur statut", that cost nothing, and allow you to easn a little before you have to pay some taxes (around 35000€/75000€ for goods/services, but you will need to verify it). You have some other choices, like individual society statut wich allows you to protect your private life (house, car, ...) in case of professional troubles with your society. Then, when this one will grow up, you can choose SARL, SAS, ... You will find many informations about them on internet. I try to build something in the art market, and even there, you need to be registered as soon as you sell one sculpture or one painting...
For sure you can try to register over seas, but, technically, you will have more difficulties to define the frame of your society (think about cutural aspect, wich bank will you choose, what will be thge administrative adress of your society... and you will also need to learn how the laws are working). Moreover, you will surely attract financial state's services attention on your society, and if your market is the french one, maybe you will encouter some customers' doubts. Besides, it's another debate, but even if it's difficult at the begining, I think french taxes, if used correctly, are the ones wich support our scholar system, health care system, and retirement system... and I agree to pay them for that. Remember, GIVE FIRST...
See you soon on the forum, and tell me wich statut you choose...

Sorry Mj but I do not understand...
I 've just read the post about Elon Musk. Is it a poor subject to open the forum worldwide...? Nobody seems to be able to answer to this young guy since it is a specific question about french laws, is it bad to answer him in a specific way, and with some advise about how the forum work?
Please tell me what's wrong...
