How do you prevent the developer you hire from stealing your idea?

Hi, I have a great idea for an income generating website for myself, and I have someone that can program it. But I am afraid, once they see how good the idea is, they will just code it on their own time and put it up on the net. Is there a way I can prevent this? Please any help greatly appreciated. Thanks.

If it's that good it will be copied en-masse soon after putting it on-line anyway.


You need a developer who isn't interested in running, operating and promoting websites.

I suppose you could get the developer to sign some sort of agreement (something like an NDA), but if it came down to it I'm not sure how much good it would do. Ideas aren't worth a whole lot. Implementations of ideas are.
