So many kinds of online business could be started with a single website in possession.
It depends on your expertise.
If you can write interstesting material for your readers, start blogging.
If you are good in Internet marketing, you understand about SEO, start an SEO company.
If you can't start a business yourself, start serving in the online marketplaces like oDesk, getafreelancer or elance.

Get your own website for $15 or less, it's not free, but it's cheap and become an affiliate. Create content and promote someone else's products. That way you don't have to worry about dealing with the customers, you are just the lead in. Set up a free mailing list from bravenet.com. For a free affiliate e-course visit [REMOVED].

Where could you get a website for $15? Does the website look professional?

To start a free online business, I would first start a blog about your favorite topic! You can monetize them with adsense or/and affiliate promotions!

Doing freelancing work should be the best option. Depends on what you are good at. Sites like elance should provide an opportunity for you to start from there.

If you have a zero budget, you need to make up for that through effort. The good thing about the internet is that there are many promotion techniques that are free - submitting articles, forum marketing, social network marketing, submitting videos to the different directories are all free.
There are lots of free videos and posts on different promotion techniques here:
http://www.trafficmarketingadvice.com
If you mean 100% free - then you're not able to host your own site or get your own domain name, which means your opportunities are limited. People also don't take free sites too seriously (IMHO), and hosting on free platforms like blogspot are risky (several years ago, I lost my blogspot blog which had a lot of backlinks and content - would never have happened if I used my own site).
Setting up rich content sites in good niches is a good way to generate free income - pick a solid niche which has financial muscle and set-up various affiliate, pay per lead and Adsense ads targeted to your content. Then promote, promote, promote.
Hope this helps...

It depends on the kind of online business you want to put up. If you plan to work on your own then that would do. It might take some time. But if you intend to get the help of others in creating/promoting your site, you need capital.
If you want quality, you should at least invest on it, otherwise you can't complain for something free.

Get a free domain, get free hosting and then sign up for an ad program.
Next comes the hard work.

To start an online business for free, first of all you need a blog. create a free blog and start practicing seo, when you start getting visitors you can then use it to promote your affiliate links or add google adsense to your blog. But it is not easy at all, it takes a long time.
but there are other ways you can make money online i.e freelancing, taking paid surveys but i cant recommend any of these methods for someone.

I also think you have to invest a bit in your online business...at least for the web host. There are cheap web hosts ($4-5) that offer high quality services.
In my opinion you have to treat your online business like a real business. You have to invest a bit in order to make it successful.

Starting an online business is just like starting any business, it depends on the products or services you want to provide, and the response you get from the people as your customers. One of the best services right now is search engine optimization.

I have heard many successful stories for starting a business from zero investment. It is not an easy job to start a profitable business with zero investment but if you want to start earning some few hundred/thousand $ per month with a simple website with good niche, then Google Adsense is the best option.

Want To Start Online Business Free??
Create your own blog in wordpress.com or blogspot.com and post the content in which you are interested. Follow the SEO tips by using google to search for it. After getting a good amount of daily traffic, put some google ads by Google Adsense.
Then you can get the money. This process is totally free.

Like other business, online business also needs practice. Good business practices, like building the confidence of customers through truthful advertising, providing products and services at a fair price, and developing long-term business relationships, are as applicable to Internet business.You now need to have or be able to acquire skills in graphic design, web server technology, programming, and a brand new marketing medium.The advertising industry has found itself with many more possibilities as well as significantly more competition.

You can prove me wrong on this but it is kind of obvious, someone good enough to own a site like www. registrybooster .com(linked to from your sig) does not know how to start a free online work!
well you can go google for what you are looking for and you will find hundreds of millions of information there.
