If you can find a niche within that sector, you'll have a better chance of making it. Is it difficult to get traffic? No, it's not difficult, it's just a process that takes time, dedication and focus. It won't happen overnight, but if you stick to it and follow advice on this site an other resources, you can make it happen. Best of luck!

If you're looking to start/run your FIRST business you should buy one. Starting off from scratch means you have 0 customers, 0 name recognition, 0 revenue, 0 systems, etc. etc. etc. More importantly, you have to learn nearly everything from accounting, taxes, legal issues, marketing, sales, customer service, payroll, etc. etc. etc. all at the same time. It's a lot to absorb. If instead, you buy an established business for cheap (with little to no money down) and improve it, you can learn a lot while still making money, connections, and building equity to set you up for your start-up. In this economy there are PLENTY of good deals to buy existing businesses. I know the question is specifically, “what business to start” however please afford me a little latitude in addressing that.
