I totally agree with you. I feel that most potential client don't even spend the time to read profiles or maybe they just don't know how to navigate the website to get to the pros profiles. They end up asking you very costly questions which have been answered already in the profile.

The changes are somewhat helpful but in my opinion I am not getting as many leads for my business. The fees are reduced but I feel that there should be some modifications in the ways that the Pros are charged for the leads. Most of my leads ask unrelated questions only for which I get charged.
