I'm building a website where members will pay a monthly fee to join, do I need to register as a business?

Question

Aside from membership fee, I may also have outside sources advertise on my site in the future. However, I will never be selling any products or services.

I also won't have any physical entity outside of the internet such as a building or anything like that. I live in CT if it makes a difference.

The Internal Revenue Service would be very interested in you. Collecting money for a service rendered is a business.
