Breaking into the Domaining and Web Development Industry
If you are a Web Designer or Web Developer then you most likely have asked yourself…” Where is the work? How can I utilize my skills for a living?” The first answer that comes to your mind is “new businesses”. I am sorry to tell you but your answer is wrong, you will not succeed or gain new clients with a marketing goal targeted to new businesses.

This is not going to be the place to bid on a project and make $4,000.00 per job but instead is the place for you to reply for their plea for help and offer “assistance” at a reasonable business to business rate. After all they are asking for help right?
