Hi,

I have not done any pay per click programs, but considering "Looksmart". While I don't have a BIG budget, think this may be the way to go to get in the door.

If I go this route, will it also list me in the web results too, for their partner sites such as, such as Dogpile, Hotbot, Excite? The process is a little confusing. I like though that I can set a limit as to how much I am willing to spend so they don't have a free ride in any give month.

However, Looksmart may not be the best option as far as a pay per click setup. I really don't know. But only plan to do one. I doubt if in the beginning my budget will be much over $50 to $100, just until I see what kind of results to expect.

My site caters to booking online hotels, vacation rentals, airfares and rental car reservations. But my main focus would be for hotel reservations, with this marketing.

With so many pay per click options, really need to know FIRST, that it's even worth it, if already in a highly competitive market?

Or would my money be better spent just paying for inclusions into some of the leading directories? However even with that, don't want to get into alot of "moula"...

Any help offered would be greatly appreciated....
