I'm a very talented actor and would like to get in the business. I have an exotic look, but its hard to find an agency that takes those looks. But anyway, I've decided to go to auditions myself. There are a few on actinginfo.blogspot.com, but is it legit?
Also if anyone get give me any help in the business that would be great!
Such as classes, agencies that take exotic looks, audition notices, photographers, etc.

With all the things you would like to know, the best advice I personally could give you is to have a look at my site, that I built especially for people like you. There's lots and lots of free information about all the things you asked about.
If you are already trained (which I highly recommend), then you might want to start here: http://www.actingcareerstartup.com/teen_acting.html . There's a link on that page about how to find an agent too as well as Disney Channel.
Good luck!

Most, but not all actors have a training; you don't say whether you have or not.
There are auditions listed in the Stage online : non-subscribers can see them a few days after first publication.
Also you can join Casting Call Pro; the free version lets you see unpaid work, but you have to subscribe to see the paid work. You can subscribe to PCR magazine. You can join the Spotlight which now sends some casting calls direct to you by email, even if you don't have an agent, but there is an annual subscription of about £135.
The actors centre in London runs classes and workshops.
Hope this helps.

I have to suppose you're in Hollywood. There are a lot of agencies looking for exotic looks nowadays. You may not get big parts at first (of course) but keep up the good work. Sorry I don't have any names to give you. The best thing you can do for yourself and others is to be yourself, professional and honest in all circumstances. Don't BS people, they'll see you coming from a mile away. And oh, PERSIST PERSIST PERSIST. Good luck, hun.

If you can't determine if it is legit, do NOT go! Your best resource for help in the industry is to ask actors in your acting classes.
