#LifestyleBusiness Own Your Online Store I wanted to start this section off by addressing a few philosophical issues. One question I get asked all the time is why should I host my own website and shopping cart when there are so many services available that will allow me to use their own proprietary shopping system for free? Why wouldnt I just want to open an Ebay or Yahoo store? Why not just have an Amazon store? I always answer this question with another question. Would you ever place your future and destiny in the hands of someone else who doesnt share your same interests? Not only do services like Ebay charge an arm and a leg to sell items (you forfeit up to 15% of your profits with Ebay), but they can mess with you whenever they feel like it. In fact, Ebay has raised their fees without warning on a number of occasions which has driven smaller stores out of business. Dont fall for the allure of using someone elses setup. You want to own your store. You never want to be tied down or forced to use a specific service provider.#BusinessMythBusted
