Forums: Discussions for entrepreneurs and small business.

I think we should have regional forms within the main forum so like minded individuals in close proximity could meet and work together.

Charles you have an idea that is ahead of the curve. Most local business owners still view the internet as the place for global business and overlook how powerful the platform can be to drive local sales.

Small and home-based business websites that make you money!

Speaking of which.

One of my client`s owns a bar/restaurant.

Her and her husband were paying some random guy 75 something bucks every year to be listed in a business listing service, which was a directory of this guy`s creation that received no localized traffic at all, and provided no use for their business.

When I brought this to their attention they were fumed, because people have a tendency for accepting things for face value- especially on the internet.

For that reason, I encourage people to read as much as they can about what they are doing before they do it- and do what I can to have people open their eyes to people looking to exploit others, and people who are providing genuine/valuable services.

(I didn`t post the above example to give scammers any ideas, but to show what I saw being done with my own eyes so people can beware of such things, especially the more internet-inexperienced)
