What do you sell?
So far I'm stunned that you're trying to get some hits on your site with such vague information!

If it is not obvious, we sell software and ZLaucher skins.

kinda lame site......add some flare to it....you look at it and think its some scam site (no offense) cuz its seems like you never took the time to give your customers a positive environment..a site where you gave your time to make us happy...instead you rushed and tried to get us to buy your products just for the money...

Not only lame, but not professional looking at all. If he wants us to take him seriously, then at the very least he needs to spend a few dollars and buy a domain name and have it hosted. Customers will expect to see sumthingpalm.com not FREEWEBS.COM/sumthingpalm. The latter suggests they have little or no money to invest. Second, he needs to get a nice looking website and populate it with actual products. This guy (kid really) has been touting his company for several months now stating how we will all be amazed. So far all we have seen is one ZLauncher skin.

But he's a CEO ;)
The rhetoric on the site is a bit much to cope with on an empty tummy :)
Good luck with it, but I think you would get a bit more respect if you werent protraying yourself/selves so seriousily as a major league compnay when your just starting up.

When our real site is complete, we will purchase the domain. Thanks for all the support. Ill try not to be so serious lol. This is my first company where I am actually the CEO and I got 4 people working for me. Its sorta cool being a CEO at 15. :cool:

I would suggest you at least find a free site where you can use sumthingpalm in the subdomain and which does not have the word free in it (or is widely know as a free site). Look here (http://www.freewebspace.net) there are several good choices. I would work on getting your site up quickly. People tend to make a quick judgement about a site and its products the first time they see it. Your site, right or wrong, gives an indication to them of the quality of your product.
Secondly, words like stunning are good to use on ads, maybe on PalmGear etc. At forums, such as these, people know more about Palms (or at least think they do). They are only going to become offended with strong language. I suspect it is best to just show your products, give information etc. and let them decide.

he has copied many themes from people in the past and charged...so one should be wary of anything he does...

I agree! Cut the guy some slack! He is young, ambitious, and part of our community. He's learning lessons in business and marketing that I had no concept of at 15.
Keep working hard at it, Justin! Develop your website and take the domain advice presented earlier. Do your own work, and be original. Fill out your product offering...grow, grow grow! Most of all, ENJOY it!

90+ posts doesn't mean squat!
This kid needs to learn what the real world is like. You don't copy other peoples work, you don't use several different login names, you don't make a lot of claims that you cannot fulfill, and you don't exaggerate about your company and expect people to take you seriously. Respect is earned, and I'm not for handing it out like candy.

No doubt, tough crowd! But I believe the kid needs a break with some constructive criticism. Hey, he's just starting out in life. And only a tongue lashing if needed. So far I don't see it being justified. "So if he needs to know what the real world is like", help him out! Why not teach him the ropes. A real teacher is honored by the students he teaches! So far I see many words and no examples!
