Where can I register as a locksmith, and what's my cut?

Which them are you using? It's a custom theme?

Don't use sockpuppet accounts to upvote your submission. It doesn't work.

So a car unlock is $175? You might as well get AAA which costs a third of that, and you can get car unlocks all year for free.

The website refers to http://lockedout.io/provider.html (says nothing about your cut)

The source refers to flat-ui as a variation of Bootstrap. So I guess its this one: http://designmodo.github.io/Flat-UI/

Did not know it and indeed looks interesting :-)

You may need to clean up your wording. For example, this is not worded well:

Must have paid experience in locksmithing. 1-2 years or above years of experience preferred.

Thanks! That reminds me to get my AAA membership!
