Hi, my name is Herman du Toit, advertising specialist at http://www.mysearchplace.com
My main job is to promote your website on a daily basis for FREE. Yes, no strings attached, free advertising, link building and higher page rank for our customers is my job, but only for a limited time!

You see, My Searchplace is a new general link directory, accepting FREE, NO RECIPROCAL listings for a limited time only.
Why? Originally the site would have launched beginning of September 2007, but the owner, Johann Snyders, could not wait anymore. He decided to launch it mid June. No advertising had been done prior June. This meant that any sites submitted in the directory in the first weeks would be listed free, with no reciprocal. "We must reach as many site owners as possible, so when the searchers start arriving the directory would have atleast 100 geniune good sites to visit." he said and continued "it should take us a month or more'

We started off with free advertising campaigns, forum posts, submitting into other directories - that sort of thing. The response was amazing, in 1 week 100 sites submitted, week 2 - 480 and now in week 4 an amazing 1250 sites (all of great quality) are running live on My Searchplace. This is amazing growth, and if I may say, its because of me! Hard work brings in results, more often than not! And that is exactly what I've done.

Johann started having second thoughts about giving away free listings, but I was first to remind him about his promised time limit. 'I'm making a loss here, actually paying you to advertise other people's sites!" he said to me smiling yesterday. And that is exactly what is happening!

To make it even worst for Johann, our scheduled first leg of "targetting 2.5 million unique searchers in 5 months" also started this week, costing him $850. Next week, 18 July, the site will be upgraded and get a new look, the way its suppose to be, another $800. This is driving him mad, but he is a man of his word!
To cover some of the startup costs he decided to create an additional sponsered plan. For only $5 you get a sponsered listing for 1 year. This will soon change to $15/month.

Although our aim is to become one of the best link directories on the net, submission will not, or rather cannot remain free forever aswell. Which brings me to the point, WHILE ITS STILL FREE WITH NO RECIPROCAL, ADD YOUR SITE TODAY, it will remain listed permanently!
You see, so by doing my job of advertising My Searchplace http://www.mysearchplace.com I'm directly promoting all the sites listed, Free.
Remember that this is a limited time offer, and believe me, in future you would want to be listed with us!
