hi,
thanks for replying...id definitely like to see your site-- what is the address? i think i paid around $120 for my domain, hosting and a template system also. ive submitted to endless free sites and do find that most of my traffic is from reciprocal sites. i guess it just takes time! advertising was the last thing on my mind until my site was actually finished! oh well...i learn something new each day :) have a good night, marin
