Heh... Point well taken. Although I noticed I misquoted the price.. it was acually $2.50.... I wouldn't mind spneding $2.50 to test the water as long as there's nothing they can do to 'harm' my listings? I know I've heard of them before and they have an lexa rating of 3,000 I just don't know if they are reputable or not... This is what the ad says....

Fifty dollars? You got to be kidding, right? How much SEO is going to be done for fifty dollars, including page submission? 20 minutes?

I know, whats that £33 or so. 3 times less than what I charge. It depends though, for example my company = 3 of us doing it part-time so we hardly charge anything.
I Need Hits however are huge so who knows exactly what they do...!

I don't really think that sounded like an ad... He was just shocked... That's all... And here is the bigger shocker. The ad did not say fifty dollars! For some reason every time I wrote the price, it chopped off the 2. They are charging a whopping TWO DOLLARS AND FIFTY CENTS =0 Now lets see.. if fifty was 3 times below your price... what's 2 dollars and 50 cents? LOL They charge 60 times less than you!!

If it walks like a duck, talks like a duck, and smells like a SCAM, then you can bet it is. You get what you pay for, and in this case I am sure you get 250 pennies less than that!
