It's a good idea, as it's very similar to "craigslist" -- nice thing about yours is, you don't limit people to just 5 postings.

I like your color and it's much cleaner than mine. You make me re-think what I have done already.

Just wondering how would you promote your site to the wild internet beside "Submit Website" on your links pages. Join other web directory?

Good works!

I really like the site. Nice work. How are you generateting $$$? You want to sell me design/files? Let me know.

thank you for taking time reviewing the site. appriciate it. i did follow the concepts of craigslist. they are big company, I couldnt afford to put all the features.
right now its not generating any money, its only 3 months old. may be in future. I am programmer/designer so I can do the work of building, but marketing is something really I dont understand it much.
but I will be happy seeing it helping people. I intend to keep it free as long as I can afford.

I think marketing is my weakest point. I should learn that when I did project for fortune 10 companies. What a shame. I think no matter how good your products are, it won't sale without good marketing.

I check your web site everyday by clicking your page on my site. Did you see that in your hit counter log?

I can tell that you are getting more traffic every single day. That's nice. I have learned something from your site. Thanks! I will continue to run my beta site until I learned how to better market it. I am moving on to my next project and hopefully the next one will be more attractive and 100% XHTML validated.

Keep up the good works. It will pay off.

nice site, wel u can develop the sites appearance furthermore

The website is very simple and professional............

I think you muss highlight " post " "subscribe" "shop" buttons........

Give them eminence.........

...........

Instead of Change Location...............

You muss use the phrase -----"Search by location".........

Category names should be given different color or fonts........don't let them lose their identity by using same color or font.........

Overall all website is good..............

And i wish you GOOD luck.........
