    There’s little that I can really say here… I mean, how much is someone really willing to pay for a cut & paste web “design” for their web page? Do people still fall for those “Only $100 for a 5 page web site with one image per page” style advertisements?

    We are looking for design skilled site builders to work from a simple cut and paste programme building websites to order from your own home. Work when you want as much as you want.

    * Compensation: per job completed

    Of course I sent tham an email – we’ll see how much this company is charging to get people setup with their own work at home business…

    This sounds great – I know all about cutting and pasting – where do I sign up?

    I’ll post more if they respond.

    Update:The response feels like a form letter;
