Search engines can control your employment prospects. As one niche dev to others, get involved with your niche language/tool online (web based community) and make sure the website advertises jobs. A lot of recruiting companies go through agencies which only deal with mainstream tools and languages, so unless you produce your own 3rd party addons and get known that way in your niche tool/language, you need to come up with other ways of getting known as its very reputation based and it can be extremely clique even when the devs are sparsely populated around the world! Fortunately Github is slowly increasing the number of languages it lists and Linked in is helping people get in touch, but you have to find ways to make your self known, its better today than it was a decade or two ago or even earlier.
