Re: Dojolocator.com - scam or useful tool?

Does anyone have any experience with the web site dojolocator.com?

I am in the process of opening a new dojo, and (as I'm sure many are aware) am on a very tight budget. I have not set up the dojo's web page yet, so this would be my "interim web presence".

Listing is free at dojolocator.com, but I wondered if there are any hidden costs - spam, pressure to upgrade to "premium" service (for premium price), etc.

But looking at it from the point of view of someone new to martial arts who is trying to find a dojo in his/her area, it seems like it's a good jumping off point.

What do you think?
While it's probably not a bad thing, I will point out that I listed our dojo there about a year ago, never paid for anything upgraded, and I just did a search and we aren't even showing up. So while it's probably not a scam, I also don't know that it's going to get you any exposure.
