That actually brings up another point that is continually seen on this forum time and time again. People seem to not understand or they forget that any market is a continually moving target. You can't just start an operation or business one day, and expect it to work exactly the same way with exactly the same structure / model five years later. Markets change, constantly. As a business you have to adjust and change your scheme in an every flowing manner in order to stay on top of the ever changing markets.
Look at how people on this forum constantly bitching about how they aren't making money anymore, and that this is to blame, or that is to blame. No one is to blame but themselves. They got into an industry ten or fifteen or however many years ago, they started at one point in time where the business model was one way. And now however many years later they're still running off that same business model wondering where the fuck their profits have gone. It's a perfect example, and an even easier industry to see it happen in. Because these people can so easily "start a business", there's no risk - with $20 bucks and some goggling they've got themselves a domain, hosting, and some reference on what to do. It's why failures are so prevalent online. They don't need any business sense or skills, and without that they tend to fail. The markets WILL change, every year there are going to be new challenges and problems to face in an online industry. If you don't have the wherewithal to find solutions to those problems, you will crash and burn.
