 TITLE: How to Start an Online Business CONTENT: Succeed With an Online Business\n-------------------------------\nNo matter how small your online business is, open a business bank account and get a business credit card. Separating your business and personal finances simplifies bookkeeping and taxes and demonstrates you're a real business, which will be important if your business grows and needs a business loan. If the business credit card reports to the business credit bureaus, paying your bill on time and maintaining a low balance can help build a good business credit score.\nAs a new, one-person business, your personal credit is also a factor when applying for a business loan. Set up free credit monitoring to conveniently keep an eye on your credit score. After all, you're going to be plenty busy with your new online business. END
