New Category Added to Site

2008 and we are still here, although the new year has already been extremely busy in the last few weeks we added Electricians to the site. Each new category is increasing our and your link popularity, so the time it takes to add categories is well worth it in the long run.

Mouse update, he's still lurking on a few pages in the site, soon to be wiped out probably with in two weeks. Hopefully.

We have had a few questions concerning the free listing that we offer and one of the most common is "Why after the free trial duration does my description get removed?" the answer is quite simple really the space required to hold your company description and special offers and images actually costs us money and we aren't a huge conglomerate such as google or Yahoo. We rent the space and can't afford to host free listings with all of that information for an extended undetermined length of time.

We all know that there are companies that charge up to $2000.00 dollars for what myservicelocator.com does. (This is the most expensive one I have found other than the Yellow Pages), our users need to be aware that however much we would truly like to make this a completely free service it is just not a possibility at this point in time. However maybe three, four years down the road with a little luck and a huge corporate sponsor it certainly isn't out of the question. As far as today and the foreseeable future we must generate advertising capital from the site in order to spreed the word that not only us but our loyal users exist.

That's the update for the New Year
Have a good 2008,

You guys are great, we love your service and continue to get leads. Not all of them work out but for the most part it has been a prety good expirance. I was on superpages and even tried servicemagic (that was a huge mistake) and we are certain that you guys do alot more for us than either one of those other guys.

Thanks again,
