Is the company called explore talent, in the us, as they do exactly what your mentioning. If it is, its not a scam they work like an agent and get work for you, they take a commission on any work they get you. There are a quite a few in the states that do this, they have tens of thousands of actors on their site and directors or advertising company's can join up for a fee and they then have access to heaps of different looks and talent. The adds they put on the sites also earn money for them as they affiliate with various companies and get a commission if anyone buys their goods or service that has come via your site. Or it could be a company that get paid to sign people up to have a site and they earn their money from the adds they post on your site. They are legal but for a small fee you can do it your self and the web design tools are really easy to use. My site costs me $12 per month and it was really easy to use their site building tools. I use yahoo which is via yahoo small business. That price included my private domaine name which is important to have a private domaine otherwise you get too much spam as an email address is linked to it, Actually I get up to 1oo pages of site, 200 email addresses help with optimization. If your not optimized you may as well not have a site. If you want any help with this email me and I am happy to assist. You can view my site to see what can be done with their tools. keep in mind I have never build a site before, my site is at www.dare2audition.com but its still under construction email me at actingup@dare2audition.com I know other companies that host for as little as $4.99 a month that do all the above as well or one that has fantastic templates to use thats free to trial for 1 month. So feel free to email me if you want further assistance. Regards Helen
