DIY.com!
The phrase "do it yourself" came into common usage in the 1950s in reference to various jobs that people could do in and around their houses without the help of professionals. A very active community of people continues to use the term DIY to refer to fabricating or repairing things for home needs, on one's own rather than purchasing them or paying for professional repair. In other words, home improvement done by the householder without the aid of paid professionals.
DoitYourself.com is an open, free community with thousands of articles and over 100 active forums on several do-it-yourself home improvement topics. They have information on lots of topics, from finance to plumbing to hang wallpaper that can help you get things done without the help of paid professionals.
I have experience running, or rather failing to run, online businesses. I'm a sucker for the American Dream, which at one point I thought meant eBay. Doityourself.com has a great article on what NOT to do as an ebay seller. I wish I had read #5 when I decided to buy 100 worthless DVDs. Here is also a great article on how to drive traffic to your site for free. #1 is especially helpful, never would have thought of that.
