Thanks for your thoughtful (more detailed explanation) about what your site is about, Sherm.
Under the circumstances, I think it would be inappropriate for me to accept your offer of a free no strings/affiliate fees review on your site, however if you would like a pass, I welcome your honest opinion about my site in a private e-mail to me.
This may come as a surprise, but I am my own biggest critic. Despite how I may come across, I am pretty well aware of my shortcomings and constantly strive to improve (although I honestly don't have time as a one-person operation to go back and improve upon what I produced years ago).
As I mentioned, I am truly a one-person operation, and I am almost completely self-taught (mea culpa...I recently took classes on film-editing and DVD authoring, although none of that is shown on my sites yet).
The bottom line is I think people appreciate it when you are forthcoming as you were in your above post. In the end, your credibility with surfers will determine your success - at least that is what I have always depended upon.
Although you may not get paid for it, sites which you review (and that display your recip link banner) might provide good traffic even if they don't provide you with direct cash in your pocket, such as how Jane's Review used to operate (I understand that they now have a fee-based expedited review service - hopefully they are still remaining independent and unbiased).
BTW, some of my sites have been featured in review sites in the past, even though I offered nothing in return. I have generally received quite good reviews. More importantly, most of the feedback I get from Members is favorable.
