I Need Advice On Officially Starting My Business!
Published on January 24, 2015

I'm at the point now in my online business that I am generating steady income each month. It's still small, but it's growing.
I feel like I should actually file for my own business license to legitimize myself, both in my own head and on my actual website.
The only thing is, I know absolutely nothing about the different business structures, which would be best for the type of business I have (just one guy with one website making money from affiliate sales), which would be best for tax purposes, etc. Basically I have a lot of questions about it all.

I also will be branching out to other niche sites in the future, but I think I would want them to all be under the "Kirby's Marketing" business. So, I don't know how that plays into everything.
Honestly, getting into all of this legal stuff is slightly scary because I don't want to do something wrong.
So, those of you that have filed your business, how did you do it? What would you recommend I do? Should I wait? Or should I start the process soon?
Thanks again and I look forward to hearing what you all have to say!

P.S. I think Kirby's Marketing, Inc. sounds a lot better than just Kirby's Marketing!
