Next step in GPS ... Selling waypoints?

I was thinking of making some business with my personal GPS waypoints I collect from my navigation device. How can I start such a thing? Or is it the right time for me to do that? What I am looking for is actually a next step of what I understand about the Global Positioning System. Is this the right next step? Or do I have to start learning more about the “Navigation World”. If so, what resources do I need and where can I find them? Basically, I have simple knowledge about GPS just gained practice.

AlexNek,

I know that waypoints are available for free, but there are people who value specific waypoints for specific purposes in countries they haven't been to before. Also, there are people who will value citizens advices for small shops and markets in their country which are unfamiliar to an ordinary visitor. For example, I haven't seen any web offering Middle East waypoints including advices for new visitors.

It is not so complicated for concept understanding.

A personal computer is a general-purpose computer whose size, capabilities and price make it useful for individuals, and is intended to be operated directly by an end-user with no intervening computer time-sharing models that allowed systems to be used by many people, usually at the same time. Personal computers may be connected to a local area network (LAN), either by a cable or a wireless connection, and through that to the Internet. A personal computer may be a laptop computer or a desktop computer running an operating system such as Windows, Linux or Macintosh OS.
