I just wanna clear up something with the counter. I put that counter online last week to see how many visit's I get.
Yahoo who is my webhoster counters don't seem to work. The site stats were not showing up.
I sign up to a counter site and sicnce then the ture stats have been coming through.
The counter has been up for only 4 days with the 2nd day not uploaded right.
I got over 200 hits on the weekend and with the results that friday and Sat'day (6 winners from 10 tips (no tips today)) that will grow.
We are not desperate for exposure, we are just trying to get a base of people who will keep coming back.
We all know the web is full of free sites, racing tips and ratings, porn, music & other things. It might be ture that they are selling things and claim to be free sites.

Like I say on my site (Which I have no pop up adds from what I know of) I want to go to a pay site in 8 months. And like I've said here before The reason is hosting costs, my time and if they are winning people money why shouldn't I get some money for myself?
I can see where you're coming from, You don't like people telling you one thing, but doing the other, I understand. Like last night we had a party on a boat that was meant to finish at 2am, it finished at 12 and we all wanted our money for the 2 hours lost.
