Looking through your previous comments history. In some it seems you have had some success with websites. Do you consider yourself successful?
Did you build your products on the side whilst holding a full-time job? And you just went at it, creating products and getting cash from users from it?
Are you a good programmer?
I've been thinking about these things a lot, but finding it hard to actualise everything around it. From what you've said, it appears to be as simple as it is. Build a product, try to get customers, and maybe make some money. Worry about everything else later.
Should look a little further before I comment.
http://coryliu.com/ Looks profesh. And HiveDesk. So a lot of experience? Do you have a blog entry on some starter tips?
I don't consider myself particularly successful compared to many people here, but yes, I've created products which got users/customers, and made a few bucks.
Its good that you have questions and curiosity, but some things you need to figure out or learn on your own. So in short:
• If you need to accept money, use paypal or google "accept credit cards online". Thats your research.
• If you have unhappy customers, you talk to them and resolve it. Don't worry about terms unless you have a good reason to.
• If you want to know more about Twitter, look them up on Wikipedia.
Don't worry about other people or about trying to follow a pattern to success; there are no patterns. Just work hard, and do what you gotta do.
