It's a non-profit organization who puts the smaller companies online for very cheap prices. Three-Dimensional does that too.

I think it's a great idea as well. Maybe labeled as something slightly different than Public Relations? You would have to focus on a certain city or subsection of a city at first. You would be able to utilize the same press contacts for all your clients. It would come down to a lot of relationship building. The good side is, you would only need to focus on a small base of publications and sites. Noah, how much do you think a fair charge would be? M&M's Local store isn't looking for the cover of wired. Is there a PR firm out there doing this? Shameless plug: we'll give the first pr firm that contacts us Publictivity for free use, if this is exactly what your PR firm does. Oh, and we'll give Noah a burrito too :-) -JLB I’ll throw my two cents in :-) . I think it’s a great idea as well. Maybe labeled as something slightly different than Public Relations?

It is not scalable but for someone looking to start there own business or wanting to hire high school/college interns this is a great chance. I think what would be even better is focusing on niches like automobiles, liquor stores, restaurants, etc... Since no one is commenting I will start it off;)
