Extremely useful
This is one of several books I bought before I started my online business and definitely proved the most practical and constructive guide. It is clear, succinct, to-the-point and has a user-friendly layout. It has many useful lists and checklists in all chapters that work as handy reminders. Many chapters in the usual how-to-set-up-your-own-business books are irrelevant to Internet entrepreneurs, but this book covers all the basics for anyone wanting to set up shop online. Highly recommended.

Very thorough and well laid out
I thought this book was very thorough. It covers a lot of ground and covers it very well indeed.
Sure, you will need to read other books for more on say SEO, email marketing and email newsletters - to name but three areas - but this is a very good starting point and it goes into a fair bit of depth anyway. - and easily enough for a first years or so on the internet.
It is especially strong on some of the basic marketing points - and even as a veteran of having read 10 or so books on the internet and net marketing, I still found some of the advice very good and the points clearly made with no waffle.
