Question:
I'm suprised about all those private services that wants to help you with
entering this GC lottery....not sure if it's worth the money to use any of
those services though...anyone has any experience with this? I'm sending in
my entry by myself anyway as chances of winning should be equal as long as
I'm very careful with filling out the entry...all I'm losing then is my
money for the stamp instead of paying someone anything from $50 and less
for the same job..
Answer:
You are absolutely right, Maryann. You should never pay more than
postage to enter the lottery. If you are selected, THEN you might
contact a lawyer to help you with the paper work. Take a look at the
examples we have provided on our website. We show you how to fill out
both the entry form and envelope. And it is free!! No kidding!! :-)

Free?! yah right. BS.
making money by ads!
it also has a mouse trap.
blood suckers.
Granted, I haven't bothered to view his page (doesn't render in my
Netscape 3). But what's so bad about paying for webservice by
advertising. There are real costs associated with hosting a site you
know. And while there certainly are ways to make a greencard lottery
site pay off, I don't think selling banner ads, is one of them.
If you don't agree, I have this great site which I would sell banner
space on for real cheap. I obviously am oblivious to the real market
value of that ad space, so you are bound to get a great deal :)
We don't sell banner ads. The ads on our website are there as a
gesture to a friend who helped us set up the website. We don't make
any money off those ads. If we make any money at all, it will come
from the redirect service that we're using.
We are basically a group of people trying our luck in the lottery for
the third year. A friend of ours was selected last year, so we're all
crossing our fingers (and toes as well) and hoping we're the lucky
ones this year. Our primary goal with the website is to help people
fill out their entry form without having to pay for it. Since we
couldn't find any website with the same information that we are
providing, we decided to make our own. Now people can surf to our
website and take a look at our examples when filling out their own
entry form.
Making information available - that's what the internet is all about!
As long as this information is free ...... what's wrong with making a
little money on it?
