I plead with Search Engines in 1995 to ad my Escort Directory. They did! I was the only Escort Directory in Yahoo forever. (Got grandfathered in thank god!)

In 1996 we went pay and I made a fortune in my first month. I had no banners, no outgoing links, no paid advertisers not anything.

Ynot was the shit and the best source for webmasters on the internet!

Ibill and Lancelot was the billing companies of choice. Ibill had pincodes and you had to pay 800 bucks to have it installed.

Hosting companies charged 13 bucks per gig and had almost no techsupport

ICQ didn't exist

Meeting members for parties did not exist.

I had a 15 inch screen, SVGA, a computer with a 14.4 modem, 100 mgz and I thought I was the shit.

I wrote all my sites in notepad and paid 800 bucks for a software to resize and edit pictures.

I like things now better, I do however miss some of the rush when you opened a new site!
