How do you begin and internet business?

I wanted to know what it took to create an internet site that most likely will be a business, but the way you make money is off of pure advertisement, from other companies. As is an internet site that will be viewed by a lot of people and you do not have to join or anything

Do I need a License?

Any legal information?

It is based in the U.S.

What great questions! I need this information too. I let my previous site go down for lack of attention/hits. But I'm ready to try again.

Hopefully with the wealth of info from the members in this forum, my next attempt will be more successful!
