Some bumps along the way but worth it now.

Limos.com is a shit affiliate program, they pay you basically 10 cents a lead and only one guy can explain how it works, Michael Holder.
It took me numerous calls and 2 weeks to get to Michael Holder.

I make $30-$60 a lead if I take the lead and enter it myself into the bookalimo.com system which is simple to use.
Limo.ca is generating roughly 50 reservations a week currently and that is on the rise.

Lesson learned.

Astounding! You may need to hire someone to work for you.

We are booking on average one limo ride per day currently.

I'm sure the price you paid doesn't seem so much anymore :)

I think the site looks great. Not sure why you are linking to the xml sitemap in the footer though.

Great turnaround, numbers say it should pay off within a month. Expect a lot of competition in the serps after you posted this :)

I'm sure DCG got to where he is because he is scared of competition :)

I like it, both the domain and it's implementation.

Using a third party system the way you are is both innovative and long term friendly since you're the one capturing the data, smart move.

On the dev front, there seem to be some pages missing and the sidebar widget could be better implemented as well, maybe as a drop down.

If you're creating pages manually, here's a better way to do it - http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/mass-page-maker/ though you're probably adding content as you go, so probably not an option.

Oh and the party bus limo sounds like a complete blast!

You said you use WordPress for 90% of your sites, what do you use for the other 10%?

Also how did you finally persuade the owner after two years, was it just price? What were your interactions like during the two years?

The other 10% are customer sites that insist on using something else, for all my sites I use Wordpress.

Yes, it was price and the right timing.
