CERTIFICATIONS

I, MICHAEL Y. BRENT, certify that:

1.I have reviewed this quarterly report on Form 10-QSB of YTB International,
Inc.(successor to REZconnect Technologies, Inc.):

2.Based on my knowledge, this quarterly report does not contain any untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make
the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which such statements
were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by this annual
report; and

3.Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial
information included in this annual report, fairly present in all material
respects the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the
registrant as of, and for, the periods presented in this annual report.

4.The registrant's other certifying officers and I are responsible for
establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in
Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) and internal control over financial
reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) for the
Registrant and we have:

     a.  Designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such
         disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under our
         supervision, to ensure that material information relating to the
         Registrant, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to
         us by others within those entities, particularly during the period in
         which this annual report is being prepared.

     b.  Designed such internal control over financial reporting, or caused such
         internal control over financial reporting to be designed under our
         supervision, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability
         of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for
         external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting
         procedures;

     c.  Evaluated the effectiveness of the Registrant's disclosure controls and
         procedures and presented in this report our conclusions about the
         effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end
         of the period covered by this report based on such evaluation; and

     d.  Disclosed in this report any changes in the Registrant's internal
         control over financial reporting that occurred during the Registrant's
         most resent fiscal quarter (the Registrant's fourth fiscal quarter in
         the case of an annual report) that has materially affected, or is
         reasonably likely to material affect, the Registrant's internal control
         over financial reporting; and

5. The Registrant's other certifying officers and I have disclosed, based on our
most recent evaluation of internal control over financial reporting, to the
Registrant's auditors and the audit committee of the Registrant's board of
directors (or persons performing the equivalent functions):

     a. All significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or
        operation of internal controls over financial reporting which are
        reasonably likely to adversely affect the Registrant's ability to
        record, process, summarize and report financial information; and

     b. Any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other
        employees who have a significant role in the Registrant's internal
        controls over financial reporting.
