Tony,
Just jump for goodness sake. Jump in head first! Make a huge splash. What is the wost that could happen, you fail miserably? Well good, I want you to fail, you need to fail! You might ask why i would say that?....Here is a quote by a huge failure you might have heard of, that might better explain it....
"I've missed more than 9,000 shots in my career, I've lost almost 300 games. Twenty six times I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over in my life. And that's why I succeed!" - Michael Jordan
Tony STOP thinking so hard, follow the blueprint. Never be afraid to fail! Winners and Losers both fail.......Winners are just willing to fail harder and more often and they reap the rewards for it!
Those experts with the huge budgets and staff and years of experience started somewhere. Most likely right where you are, a small, nimble, "David" facing the Goliaths in their path. I would venture a guess that you have at your disposal talents, resources and a motivation that they didnt have. Oh yea, and lot of those "Goliaths" are just figments of your imagination
As far as competition goes, who cares! Find a way to get your piece of the PIE. The internet is a HUGE PLACE, you are putting the limitations on the net. The net is not putting limitations on you.
Everyone fighting over position 1-3 on Google search? Good let them have at it. Go to Yahoo, MSN, or the thousands of other traffic sources out there, perfect your strategy! Then head back over to Google later with cash in hand and dominate.
Tony, here is my final bit of advice, you know that figurative ledge you are standing on, jump your butt right off it! Do it now! You don't need wings or a prayer.. YOU JUST NEED TO DO IT....take the action and gravity and the laws of nature will do the rest!
To your small failures and huge success,
Whistler
