Is this another pyramid selling scheme?
Please identify yourself. Prove to me this isn't just a scam to harvest
credit card information.
There's no money in selling ads online unless you have a site with
millions of visitors. I've tried to sell classified ads for years on
boatingincanada.com, a site with large "boater" visitor numbers and very
high Google rating - few individuals and no marine businesses have
bought any (beyond the free month for personal ads). As for display
advertising, I have an American company - only one Canadian marine
business has ads!
In my experience most marine businesses think that having a Web site is
all that is required to attract new online customers. In the non-marine
world, I maintain a community Web site that struggles to convince local
business of the value of spending $50 a year to be in a business
directory, including a banner ad and a Web page that can be found near
the top of Web searches. Sorry, sliding off-topic...
