    Something I can’t already find, a unique line of useful or novel products. A very professional and secure website, nothing amateur looking or with broken links and misspellings!

    After owning and operating multiple sites, i’ll give you what little knowledge I’ve gained. My opinion, ignore as needed.

    1) Content is key to success. If you are selling something tangible, have a lot of it. I don’t know of any websites that made anything that were only selling a handful of items. You cut your market down too much if you don’t have a good amount of items for sale. If you aren’t selling tangible goods, it must be appealing. An online gaming website works well due to the repetitive usability of them. If you are not selling anything and your content isn’t appealing, you will not make money, simple as that.

    2) Traffic. Make sure you are listed in the search engines and think about investing some money advertising on other sites. Don’t skimp on this because it only hurts you. If nobody knows your site is there, how are you going to make money?

    3) It needs to be visually appealing. If I go into a website and see misspellings, broken images and links, cluttered pages, I don’t stay long. Overall asthetics are a very important part in my opinion. I could show you some examples of my sites to show you what I mean but yahoo will probably get on me for advertising. Just be sure your site looks good to visitors and they will come back for more. Best rule of thumb, “If I don’t like how it looks, odds are my visitors won’t either.”

    I could probably come up with more but those are the main keys to success from what I have learned. If you want to discuss further, give me a shout!
