Default Re: Best ESL community I've seen so far!

One example would be the EFL-Law site. It's a site that helps teacher who have some problems and need some law advice like breaking a contract or when the boss does X,Y and Z. Anyway that site is now a paid site and I heard that it's not going so well. Seems that the main guy is not even a lawyer.

At this day and age there is so much information on the net for teachers that we shouldn't have to pay for any site. I understand that you have to pay for maintaining it all but the question is how do you do that? If you start to charge people then they will not join in the first place unless they have prior knowledge that it's a good site. Many new people would be turned off and then again you would have to pay the credit card company and some security company as well etc to keep it all save.

Seems like a huge headache! I'm happy that I'm just a member
