Some interesting points made in the article:
“Bloggers, small businesses, and simplicity have combined to create the dramatic growth of sites, much of it just in the past two years.”
"The bottom line is it's much easier to create a Web site nowadays, and it's much easier to make money with a Web site,"
“The cost, and the complexity of creating Web sites have both diminished since the beginning of the 21st century.”
"The Web has gone from being a very straightforward thing where you put some text and perhaps some images, to being this incredibly powerful medium in and of itself.”
As a small business you just can’t afford not to a have dynamic, informative web-presence anymore. Just one index-page with some minor details of your products, services and contact details, which once launched into the WorldWideWeb never gets updated, isn’t a proper business mentality anymore.
A website like that will be like the proverbial needle in the haystack. And it is a very BIG haystack now!
Make sure your website is being found without even the need for a magnifying glass.
