The Internet is a very visual medium, and so if you take pictures for  a living (or hope to) the ideal way to get started is to get your photos out there and seen.
And although you can [...]]]></description>

For example, say your hobby is clothing for pets. Imagine a website of your very own, where you sell your creations. 
But no one is coming &#8211; in fact, the site is deadly calm.

So I&#8217;m left wondering, is it because the offer is no good? Wrong product for the right people? Email filtering? People too busy to open it? Or is is the weather?

But the question is &#8211; does narrow focus mean slim pickings?
No. for example, I came across a site devoted to industrial suppliers, ThomasGlobal. And not any [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[How does a small business compete with a big business online?
You don&#8217;t.
Instead, you focus &#8211; and do a better job on your section of the market than any big company possibly can.
Case in point &#8211; Equestrian Cupid.
At first I thought it was a matching site for horses, helping you breed the next Seabiscuit. But of [...]]]></description>

In it, he highlights some of the less than savory things Google has been involved in, such as siding with Chinese government for business reasons, supporting Youtube and Google Book Search and their copyright infringements, and Google Japan paying bloggers, among other things.

And despite the popularity of online insurance brokers, there&#8217;s one small problem &#8211; I&#8217;m in Canada.
It&#8217;s odd, but most of the places that help online appear to be American &#8211; yet we need insurance as well!
