The reason I say this, is with the internet, time is of the essence. It is important to get your idea going as quickly as possible, because it takes time to get noticed, and drive customers to your site. Once you have them there, you'll find the right messages to convert them.

Don't be afraid to co-opt with the competition. The goal of your site is to earn money. The old days of battling with your competitor are over when you use sponser based advertising in your site, even when it comes from your competitor, or near competitor. There are many reasons an internet prospect won't click through to a purchase, but why lose an opportunity to a competitor completely, when you can get paid to send that prospect to your competition.
