Thank you,

I spent only a few minutes on your site. I did a search for several common cars (Honda Accord, Toyota Camry) within 100 miles of my zip code, and found no results.

I suspect that your site is new, and there aren't many cars in the database. I think part of the reason some of the larger sites are able to charge for listings is because they have a lot of traffic, and a lot of potential buyers looking at their sites. I would imagine that it's difficult to get one of these sites started.

My personal recommendation would be to hire a site designer. Your current site is not bad, but I think having a professionally-designed site really makes a difference. Marketing is going to be key, also.

I hope some of the other members will be able to offer their opinions. I love the idea of a free listing, supported by advertising though. I wish you the best!
