What is the name of your state? CA



Hi,

I'm thinking about creating a price comparison website not sure if it's legal. What I do is I use the products information the merchants provide me (I'm their affiliate member) and displaying these products and prices when people searching for a particular product. A site such as bizrate or mysimon has been on the web for some time - do they have legal problems? What they are doing are perfectly legal, aren't they? not fixing anything?

Thanks,
John

Thanks HomeGuru. Easy answer, isn't it?

About my plan to create web directory for professionals for my county in 2002 - Wow! since Oct 2002... I don't do it. I think it's more appropriate job for an association to create a site like that and verify data. However, now I plan to create a large business directory or an Internet Yellow Page for my orange county in Southern california.

Thanks,
Best regards,
John
