    first off I would hire a designer to make a template then I would promote the heck out my site by submitting bids to the top directories

    I would first get a really good script for directory, and possibly with unlimited license :) . Than code it and modify it and create a theme myself :). After all that is done and if any money left will get pizza and coke after the long hours i spent on it. And remaining will save for getting upgrades mods if required and than advertise it on google.

    Cheers

    Jesus .... you might get $150- $200 out off me and thats about it... :eek:
    Not saying your work is bad or good but in all honesty its equal
    to everyone elses and not more to me, and i DO shop around ... ;)




    Spend your money wisely....

    I personlly think that if your "very selective" and shop around on this list then
    you can add your link to most off these directories on this list and have a few bucks left over...

    I think it's normal. I know aviva has spent at least 600$ for the design. I, myself, has spend 200 and 300 respectively for a uniqueness in my site.

    500$ could definitely worth it if the site is full of features.

    $500 is just an average, you should check what exceptional designs cost ;) of course I wont tell you right off the top of my head.

    malcolm, thanx for bashing my spam. good luck shopping.
