need some advice, because I'm new to this industry - but not to business in general, nor to programming and development
First, some background:
my business partner and I run a small dedicated host for a few websites that we own. We're sufficiently proficient in setting up servers on the hardware and software level.
A friend of my business partner has steadily been building up adult content. He's been looking for a way to start distributing it online.
The questions..
We have the server equipment and the knowledge to setup the server, but this will be the first time we run a transaction-based site - so,
- how should we process the payments?
The guy who's getting us the content needs to register the company and have everyone sign the release forms.
- Is an LLC his best bet?
*I've read some threads here that say that for the first year, you have to spend $800 to accept VISA. is that our only choice? what about other cc merchants like paypal?
