In years gone by the number of people looking to start their own small business was just a fraction of the level of interest today. It seems that the internet and other advances in technology have allowed more and more people to work form home, many looking to set up their own businesses, but is this the time to look at working for yourself?

There are however tax, import and export issues to consider to ensure that your business runs within the laws of the UK.
But imagine if you were selling a service or advice which could be passed over the internet or indeed you started a successful affiliate business. There would be no postage, no packing and you could literally leave your site on auto, selling goods 24 hours a day 7 days a week.
