My new idea

I have started or I should say I am going to start a website dedicated to American Made products.
I have purchased a name, buyamericansite.com
I will be listing any company that make any product in the USA.
It will be that simple. A company will pay a small amount to be listed on the site. The site will link people to the website of said company or person. No website, just give an email.

I would like to feature all of you for FREE. Any HT member with a business or company that makes a product in America will get a Free listing on my new site.

Any thought or advice will be appreciated.

No advice, but want to say I think you've got something there

Great idea, but I am curious how you plan to promote the site? How will you find the companies to list on the site and how to let people know that the site exists?

I will contact companies by either phone or email to see if they want to list.
As for people finding it, I will sign up with a search engine like you do when you sell any thing on the internet.

If you are interested in listing for free PM me with:
your business name
Website or email or any contact info you want
A short description of what you sell

You can give as much or as little info as you wish.
I will simply copy and paste so please proof read.

My biggest hurdle is the website building itself. Not my strong point.
