Maybe I just don't understand what you are looking for. Mom and Pop shops still need websites (the language used doesn't matter), they may be smaller jobs ranging between $1,000 and $5,000 but people still need websites! The 5 to 10 page websites can still pay the bills, change your marketing strategy :-) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?
