How To Start A Website, Its Your Money.

This short review is for USA and UK citizens parting with their money, although the advice  can effect anyone who parts with money on the Internet.

The Internet is a place where a lot of Websites are after your money, in one way or another. It is getting increasingly more difficult to know who to trust.

That said, what can we do to make sure that if we spend any money on the Internet, that we are spending it in the right place?

Two things come to mind straight away and both these things affect both USA and UK citizens who use the Internet, also for anyone else from any country who is going to spend some money on-line this is important.

First off you should never use anything but a .co.UK or a .com Website, by using these two types of Website you are giving yourself a guarantee that if there is a problem, it will be sorted out.

Both .co.uk and .com Websites that are in the USA or UK are recognized by their respective governments which means certain controls are placed on them to act within the law.

Your rights as a consumer are protected, this cannot be said for any other Website ending.

Example of endings include:- .biz
                                                    .info
                                                    .net
                                                    and others.

.co.uk and .com in Great Britain are covered by the law of the land and in the USA are covered by State Laws. This means to the consumer that you are protected.

That cannot be said of any other type of Website, If you are buying from a Website abroad be very careful, look at the small print before you part with any money!! (see below).

This brings us to the second thing of importance, which is never trust a foreign Website with your money!!. There are many foreign Websites that are trustworthy, but I am afraid that because of the total lack of any governing rules or regulations covering these Websites, you are asking for trouble and believe me if you use them sooner rather than later your going to find it.

These are the places where the fake Websites hide out so stay away.

There are a growing number of FALSE Websites around, these appear to be from a reputable business but are scams. These sites look exactly the same as the ones they are copying but the problem here is you will lose a lot of money, never get anything you have ordered and they disappear one day and are back up the next with a slightly different name.

I am hearing about these types of Websites more and more, as long as we have the Internet there are going to be people trying to steal your money, sad but true.

One of the big questions you should ask yourself when buying on the Internet is, What comeback have I got if something goes wrong?.

Well to answer that question for a USA or UK citizen is simple, you must use a .co.UK or a .com, anything else should be checked thoroughly and only when you are satisfied that the particular Website is safe, should you ever part with any money (although I do not recommend using other Websites with different endings).

Website security and the padlock symbol I will go over in a later post, also the way you should pay for anything you buy on the Internet.

Remember use .co.UK and .com Websites only and make sure their from the USA or UK.

By following this advice you greatly reduce the risk of being scammed by Websites.     Note:- These views are held by this Website and Author and are for guidance only.
