I'm Currently Feeling: | I know it means paying....but you can get a package where you pay for your URL to come up higher on google etc. Or you could buy a domain name, mask it and have the package on that
You're looking at paying about £30 though if you go through LCN |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I think as with everything its down to word of mouth and building yourself a good reputation ... personally i wouldnt worry if i only had 2 members for the time being ... these things take time!! |
