Hello & welcome Simon

Womble mentioned kick backs, well it's not quite like that I have affiliate linked display ads and discount codes (exactly like these forums do) that will hopefully, sometime soon, produce a bit of income!

Just like to point out that this forum doesn't earn a bean from any e-cig supplier or anyone else.

Hi Chrissie, thanks for the welcome My apologies on the on the above comment, I stand corrected.

There are often posts an aaec from newbees seeking advice on starter kits. They get good help. Now when I look at the recommended starter kits on E-cig central I don't see any of the kind of stuff aeec members recommend in fact I see the sort of thing newbees are advised against buying, the very things vapers say are a waste of money.

Sorry Simon but it looks to me as if the only person you're trying to help is yourself.

Hi monty.

I wouldn't say it was a waste of money for me. I've saved nearly £600 by not smoking and it was one of those brands listed that I bought the starter kit for. So if someone can stop, or nearly stop, then in my book that's not a waste.

My site has been running two months I started with what I knew - that minis helped me because they looked and felt almost like a real ciggy! My horizons are now spreading wider, I'm using a tornado style vaper this week and absolutely love it, that will get reviewed and added to the site; as my horizons widen so will those of any newbies who visit the site. On top of all that I've now found this forum, and it looks like the members will have no problems pointing out my 'mistakes'

Cheers
Si

Not mistakes as such, but this forum is affiliated with no brands or suppliers and so we can advise or speak about anything we want.
You have massive adverts running across the top of your site.

Now, while I admire anyone who has set up any site to promote e-cigs at little or no gain to themselves, you can see why people would think your site may not always give the best advice. As Chrissie has said, this site (and all popular UK forums I think) make nothing from anyone.

That said, the best of luck to you and welcome to AAEC!

Hi Si, good to hear from you.

I'm going to stay out of this generally, as t.b.h. I am still vaguely recalling the trauma of using a certain mini e-cig brand some 8 (?) months ago. They took my money (far more than smoking, as well), I went through weeks of being thoroughly horrible to my friends and family (through nicotine withdrawal) and I thought I would need taking away up in a straight jacket. Thankfully, somewhere along my vaping journey, I was rescued by my guardian Angel.

Since then, I have been sorting my life out and am nearly free of both vaping and NRT. It's close.....it really is.

I wish you luck with the site. I think I mentioned the good job you'd done (although my original post was made in anger) and also, any e-cig is a good e-cig up to a point. It pains me to see the inclusion of one particular brand on your website; and that is where I must bow out, as I have already had my comments about this brand removed from many an internet review site under duress.

Good Luck.
