When I started, the Internet was only 7 years old, you can imagine there were hardly any websites, a bit over 17 million. No ebay, facebook, google. AOL was big, so was IBM. I used to go up and down high streets trying to get shop owners to have a site, no one was interested. Some sites looked like they were done in prep school. I was getting about £450 per site. As the trend when to CMS I wasn't getting enough work and sold what I had off after 14 years.
