		<description>As Duvet pointed out the days of the yellow pages are numbered, I work for an auto dealer in the UK. we now reply on people finding us via word of mouth or through the internet.. in a way this is better because we do not have to fight the big boys quite so much..

		<description>Search marketing can be vital for local business, just recently the yellow pages was banned from a number of U.S states. The focus for search is now totally down to google, if you need a local carpenter you go to the internet. The joy of this is the little guy can get noticed for his locality and the the rest is down to his/her capabilities.</description>

		<description>Dane,

I couldn&#039;t agree more. We see that here as well. It&#039;s actually kind of stunning. I think it is the real small business folks that have that fear you talk about. I am actually thinking about how I define the idea of a small business moving forward. My gut is saying that maybe the real small guys are so far behind the curve that it&#039;s not worth the time to talk them them down from the ledge, so to speak. Maybe it&#039;s looking at small and medium enterprise companies?

Your description of search being akin to walking on the moon is both funny and poignant. I still think there is great hope for the little guy but it may not be as widespread as it should be until something happens to shift the paradigm dramatically. Wow, that was a lot of $10 words, huh?

Thanks for stopping by!</description>
