Re: [ATM] Newport glass works

[Dominic-Luc Webb <dlwebb@canit.se>]

I have created websites for even larger companies that ended up not
being able to pay me because they went out of business. After a lot
of hassle, I got paid, partly by proving these companies were
negligent in not filling the orders they received. In one truly
impressive case, there were over 10 million Swedish kronor of
orders that never got filled. I had to take the matter to court to
force them to fill their orders in order to pay me. I generally
got my money, but it was amazing how many businesses do not
understand that when they go for a website, and want to refer
their ordering to online ordering, they need to adapt their
sales and purchasing departments accordingly.

Google has made things a lot more complicated because of their
trading keywords like stocks on NYSE. Many legitimate
businesses have gone bancrupt because of a sudden drop in
their scoring. They switch ordering, etc to the Internet,
business picks up, and they convert everything to online
ordering. Then, Google scores them much lower, the new
customers that represented a large proportion of their profits,
no longer find them, and in little time at all, the company
goes belly up. I am doubtful that any of these smaller
businesses like Newport are Internet savy enough or have
resources enough to hire an IT service specializing in
optimizing Google scores.

Newport for now can definitely be contacted by phone and I
think they are happy to fill most orders for us, but above
I have offered two reasons why I would not be surprised if
they went bancrupt, either by their own fault or by others.
