Fund your online business through personal savings, crowdfunding, small business grants, angel investors, or bank loans. You can also reinvest early profits. Each option depends on your goals, risk tolerance, and how fast you want to grow.

As long as you know your business will turn a profit, a business loan can be quite beneficial. I'd actually start off by taking out a small loan, pay it back and then apply for a larger loan. You don't want to go into debt over a loan.

Loans, general loans to be specific, might be easier for people than you think. I had bad credit and got two loans, one for $750 and another for $1000.

Anyway, though, banks can still be tough without perfect credit and I don't know how I got those loans (from loan companies, not banks).

Note: You do need a good source of income at the least. I have SSI and a new fast food job.

In my opinion, the best method to fund an online business, especially in the beginning, is early reinvestment. I feel like it's less risky than a loan or anything, especially since many small businesses end up failing. Taking a portion of profits earned in the beginning and allocating some of that to solely the business is the best way to fund it when starting out.
