    Thanks for your help, however, I am reluctant to make it free just on the basis of getting more traffic!

    I agree with fokerss promoting slowly is very IMPORTANT..

    Many time We might get EXCITED & totally forget that it's the FUNDAMENTALS that will build up a long term business.

    It's just like a house..First you lay the foundation, than the post, than once the frame is set you start on the roof etc. This is the same as Our business it has to be strong to ENDURE for years not a fly by over night.

    I'll will get to the methods of doing that soon. =)

    diggs11 brought up a VERY IMPORTANT POINT..

    It's important that WE keep in mind that We're dealing with CUSTOMERS who are People...that want to be heard, involved, validated.

    As you begin it's important that you constantly remember while YOU primarily determine the VISION of your directory it's important to REMEMBER that MEMBERS will provide often times HIGHLY valuable ways of Improving your directory resulting in them PURCHASING MORE.. =)
