2. Make it easy for your customers to pay.
Offer multiple payment gateways. Paypal is a must as it is widely used and accepted by online shoppers. They process payments fast and accept major credit cards too. The idea here is to make it easy for your customers to pay you. If they need to spend too much it is very likely that they would just click away.

3. Look around for what are the hot selling products.
Do you watch tv? If you do, good. Keep an eye on what are the advertisements that appear the most the next time you turn on your tv set. Why? Those are the current hot items. If they compliment with the theme of your legitimate home online business, then put it in there. The other good source to get product ideas is to pay a visit to your local bookstore.
