Ramon, you're confusing advertisers with venture
capitalists and investment bankers. Those are the folks
who "invest" in the **potential** growth of websites. IF
you had a track record of previously producing successful
websites that you could point to, you MIGHT get some
advertisers who are willing to take a risk. Otherwise, you
need to deliver the audience before an advertiser can
realistically be expected to spend their limited budgets to
target them.
