Well, been surfing the net mindlessly as I always do and I came across an interesting website which allows webmasters to sell links. I know you’re thinking that you’ve been there done that, however this advertising network has a twist, it allows publishers to sell links on all pages of their website independently (which is completely different to sitewide links).

My good friend has recently just launched a new Aussie only dating (and dating related) directory of goodness =). It is still in its early stages of development and is currently unable to accept new dating related business contacts, but I am sure it would be up and running very soon.
