The size on your business card will depend on your final design of the card, but should be used at 300dpi for printing. Online use (such as watermarks) will be dependent on the resolution of the photo.
If you've created it in PS, it's likely a bitmap logo, so will need to be saved at various sizes to ensure the best possible quality each time.
For a 'catch all' file, make sure it is a vector logo (you'll need to use a vector based program for this such as Adobe Illustrator), as you'll then be able to resize at will without any detrimental effect on quality.

If it is done in Illustrator it will give you more flexibility with the logo as you'll not need different size files all the time. You can just use one file and resize as needed without losing the quality.
There's nothing 'wrong' with doing it in PS, it just makes it more work to use the logo in different environments as you have to keep resizing/redrawing for different uses.
