Buddypress or Membership plugin?

Aloha gang,

I'm starting a business opportunity site for both offline and online businesses.

My goal is to increase my business by attracting network and affiliate marketers.

I'm also considering selling posting rights as a subscription so people can list their businesses.

I'd like the general public to see the posts, but only paid members may post their business opportunities.

Any thoughts?

Rick

    Darn,

    I should have used a more popular blogging system than Wordpress so I could get some opinions on this.

      ...Used a more popular platform than Wordpress? I hope
      that was just sarcasm and you weren't serious. Every
      second or third question about site building has to do
      with Wordpress around here.

    Buddy press creates too much SQL tables, go for a membership plugin instead. If you are not a techie like me, you might be confused. LOL anyway. If your site won't exceed 5000 members then buddy press will work for you. But for bigger, use any plugin or go for another platform like joomla as its powerful
