Have an idea, as simple as a felt boot, where to start?

Hello.

I have an idea for an internet portal. the portal will be in demand by everyone.
In general, my idea, as usual, is super-duper and should bring millions of money in the near future.
there are all sorts of startup points, and other various kinds of investors, but!
on all such sites, you must openly describe your idea, which I cannot do otherwise, any experienced programmer with a team of friends will make such a site and earn “my” million on it.
I myself can only describe the whole structure, the principle of interactions, in general, the whole mechanism and all the features of the site. but he is not able to do it himself, and there are no friends who will work without selfishness either.

Advise how to be?

I heard a hundred times - “an idea costs nothing!”, but if I own an apartment or even a room, I would have sold it a week ago to rent an office and pay for the work of the team.

where and how and what should be registered? I'm afraid that having put the idea on public display, everyone will appreciate and praise, but in a month a site with similar functionality will appear, but not mine.

I'm angry, how are you?

How many times have I heard the words one-on-one.
People, knowing what I do, come up to consult: “How are websites made?”, “What is needed for this?”.
At the same time, speaking vaguely, afraid to let slip about my wonderful idea.
In cases where I was able to find out what people wanted to do, it usually turned out that the idea had already been implemented, it was just that people did not know about it.
So I advise you to first find out if someone has already done the same thing, it’s just that there are very few really new ideas.

And when the site is ready, will you give a link to it or will you be afraid that they can copy it from you?

1) You are paranoid.
2) What is the Padonkoff language?
3) It just so happened in Russia that it is customary to put a capital letter at the beginning of sentences!
4) Well, the developers won’t steal your idea now, which means they will steal it a month after your launch, they will do more competent marketing and you will still be left with nothing.
5) Investors don't do bullshit.

And you didn’t think that after the launch of your idea and the start of advertising, in a month the same one would appear, and perhaps even better, because. will your mistakes be corrected? If the project is quickly done, up to six months, it is pointless to hide, because. delays for a "shot" are longer than the time for creating a clone and both can shoot at once. If the project is being done for a long time, then there is no need to hide it at all, because. no one just takes it without due motivation. In general, sitting only on the idea, you are doing meaningless business from all sides.

If this idea is worthwhile and its million-dollar potential is clear at first sight, then a month after the launch of your site, Serious Runet Guys will take up writing clones. They will have an order of magnitude more money and people to write, promote, maintain, add new features, translate into different languages, etc., so if you write five of us for six months, they can do it in a couple of months, and soon your site will die. And all why? Because the idea is not worth anything , although a modern schoolboy cannot understand this. Good luck.

Thousands of people have already come up with your idea, but for some reason no one has yet made and earned a million, hence the conclusion, no one needs your idea

more than one year has already passed, you can reveal your idea, just interesting.

Make a presentation of the project. Look for venture capital, negotiate with potential investors, convince. People who want to invest seriously don't usually do the bullshit of stealing other people's ideas.

I recommend reading what Eric Sink writes (his collection of essays has just been republished). In short, don't do this.

To begin with, I would advise you to watch the speech of Igor Ashmanov, if you have not seen it yet ...

If your idea is built around service, sales, advertising, and other vital necessities, then it is worthless. Act openly and focus on your business to be the first. But be sure to do some market research — maybe someone has already implemented it.
If your idea is built on a social component and it is attractive and easy enough to implement, then conduct a market research to see if it is already being implemented. If there is no implementation, then act closed. Find trusted friends and work in the "shadow" until you make a prototype.
If your idea is built on a social component, but it is difficult to implement, then you should not pursue it at all.

How much time and money do you need for the first publication?

if it burns like that in one place, pay for the services of a lawyer who will help draw up a competent NDA, and sign it with everyone you want to tell about the “super idea”
in fact : as a consequence of 1st - you will have to tell someone about it 3 - you do not have any critical view of your undertaking, because you did not tell anyone about it, and do not believe yourself that you have already assessed all the jambs and risks 4 - prepare a clear presentation and show her relatives (well, at least they won’t steal your idea from you), don’t try to infect them with your startup, you NEED a critical opinion

To work disinterestedly “for an idea”, guarantees are also needed. What can you offer your "dev friends" as compensation if you don't even reveal the idea?

Determine the methods you lack for the implementation of the project;
Read/watch several [tens/hundreds] megabytes of tutorials, manuals and examples;
Do it all yourself;

Why don't they steal startup ideas?
That is, 99% of startup ideas, according to Gaidar Magdanurov, are complete garbage, which makes no sense to steal. It's hard to disagree with him here. Indeed, the vast majority of start-up ideas, even those that have been invested in, are a waste of money.
Thus, we understand that 99% of the ideas generated by young talents are not stolen simply because they are really worth nothing.
