Once you have a domain, and a client area for it, it will be clearer, as you can see where the nameservers go.

I considered using this site earlier this year but in the end didnt. I am now reconsidering my advertising options and would appreciate feedback from any member that went live with their ad.
As they say "is it worth it?"

So far, it has been worth it. I got an email from them yesterday which announced a price increase for new customers to £69 a year, but also adding that new features were to be announced very soon.

And it isn't really an ad, it's a complete website. There's no listing site attached to it.

Thanks Helen. I got that reminder too and so my query! I could have phrased my question better. I have my website with Iowners but it is not generating many enquires. Is Promotemyplace generating enquires? I dont feel like paying for two and am considering dropping Iowners.

yes, it is generating both enquiries and bookings, and has about 300 unique visitors per month.

Again I have to thank Helen for alerting me to this. It is doing very well for me with visitors and enquiries.

I'm becoming obsesses with Google Analytics though, especially the new 'real time' thing where you can 'see' someone is viewing your site, and what they are looking at.

Thanks for the feedback. I think we are all obsessives on LMH! IO worked well for me for two years. I have their stats package and my hits info seems bizarre with hits seemingly being generated from all types of sites including XXX ones!
