instead of cash.?

My boyfriend is exceptionally good at designing and building websites. He can create anything of any design or taste with special effects, videos etc etc on it.

There are so many web design businesses out there that we decided to make ours with a difference - we will accept company stock or services from the business as payment for a top class website. This will appeal to people as they don't have to find a cash lay out to pay for a site which can run into the thousands for a really good professional site.

Instead they use stock they already have or services they offer - i.e we do a holiday website we get free holiday that we can sell or keep at our discretion. This gives the smaller business's who cannot afford to pay for a website to still enjoy and benefit all that the world wide web can offer in extra marketing and sales.

However i do not have a clue where to start to advertise. Can anyone advise any good sites?
Thanks

An interesting idea. Maybe try google adwords for targeted on line advertising. You can also place an offer in the Kent Business Forum members offers section.

That sounds like a great idea to me. Have you looked into Bartercard? I'm not registered with them myself, so can't comment but it certainly looks interesting.
