Hi there,

have you ever heard of Browsewebsites.co.uk(http://www.browsewebsites.co.uk/default.asp)? Can I trust them? :think:

They have nice internet businesses for sale and I would need some suggestions before investing or waisting my money with them. :confused:

Many thanks,
ctinnire

    I sent them an email asking for more info about the business, and they kindly replied to all my questions.
    They seems quite allright and professional... but you never know!!

    Thanks for your reply! :smiley:

    Hi

    Back in 1999 I got caught with a company called fast-data selling sites that were very similar to this - they disapeared Mmmmmmmm. The write up promised great returns but the reality is very different. The opportunity is sold to you as a way to make money easily... anything on the internet takes hard work as you need to get visitors to get sales. Also you need to offer good prices because savvy internet users seek out the best deals. So the opportunity to make good returns is diminished. Also, if you go with one of their classified type websites then they are REALLY hard to get going. Nobody will advertise on a site with no (or very little) content, as this suggests no traffic and therefore nobody will pay for the service.

    There are far too many BIG players in all the markets that they create websites for. It would be better to save your cash and get a freelancer to build you something bespoke, something that you want to do and is your own idea. https://www.scriptlance.com is a good start at using a freelance developer to build you something.

    Hope that helps.
