Check out Matts Reply to: What advice would you give to a Young Entrepreneur setting up their first business?

Be conservative with your investments and your projections.

Be patient since everything will take 2-4 times longer than you think

Create real value. I cringe at all the people who think that pay-per-click arbitrage, scraping RSS feeds and all this other nonsense will generate any real, long-term results or value.

Finally, don’t be afraid to tackle a really small niche. Without globalisation, SitePoint wouldn’t be in business (50% of our products ship outside of the USA). The internet gives entrepreneurs and unprecedented opportunity to aggregate an audience, no matter how obscure or niche the value proposition is.
