www.usdirectory.com - worth it to advertise there?

[Derek]

They called me up and want $5 per month, no contract. And 25© per click with a $5 max amount of clicks per day. This to put me at the "top of the search engines".

Do they have a monkey in a back room pushing mouse buttons all day? So I'll prolly end up spending $150 for a month of clicks??

glad i asked!

well Shane, that is why i am getting all of these sales calls. eat yor heart out Werner it's all free except the 10 minutes they use up on my cell phone bill and my time to turn them down. no won ton soup for you!

oh another thing, she wanted my credit card # over the phone. of course i declined since she called me out of the blue. i said if she'd email me with an actual weblink to usdirectory.com where i can look things over and give my credit card info, that i'd think about it.

so she emails me from a yahoo account KMA! scam sounds about right.

Sounds like a new age version of the old Yellow Book Invoices for listings in a book I never heard of , that never gets mailed to anyone

Even at a low price, it's over priced


I think you're right on about a monkey in a back room doing the pay per click deal, you'd definitely be paying way more than the $5 " give me your credit card #" monthly charge
