I've run a web development firm for the last twelve years and am now aiming to "go pro" photographically and am finding your articles extremely useful. The SEO tips are extremeley important and all those sites that ar just Flash based need to think seriously about incorporating SEO into those too. Thanks again, Kevin Damien – a great article.

There are loads of networking groups out there now run by local Chambers of Commerce etc, and they are great for building relationships and getting your face and name out in the local community Great advice as usual Damien – another thing which I have found to be really useful is networking with other local business people.

It can be difficult to keep a possitive frame of mind when the going gets tough. However as you say by keeping a positive optimistic mind set and planning for the future we are setting our selves up for the eventual win. In addition to your excellent suggestions, we could also offer our services for free in order to build & improve our portfolios or get free PR perhaps by helping a local good cause. As you say, there are many great opportunities to keep our minds off the doom and gloom and make the best from the additional time we now have. We must also remember that 9 out of 10 people will still be in work and have the same spending power they had before the recession. Great article Damien.
