I am planning to start an on-line business. What type of hosting do I need? The hosting company that I am signing up for is 1&1 hosting. It offers me beginners, home, and business. It also have an eShops, whatever that means..?

Anyways, I just want to sell ONE product, it's a start, and want to know which plan should I get. I want to be able to accept payment such as paypal, visa/master card. Does it cost money to have such service and do I have to sign up for the business plan to get such service or can I get an ordinary one and set-up my own.

I don't know which is best. Please give some insight on how I should go about is starting this business. Thank you.

I REALLY NEED HELP.

Cut out the 1&1 out of the picture and use ebay. You will learn Pay Pal there and get a little experience. Then if you want to do the 1&1 that would be fine but you might want to be more in control of your own site and business in which case I'd go with Yahoo Sitebuilder as any novice can build your own website with their software. My site costs $11.95 a month and I love it.

sell it on ebay if you only have one product...
