General Over-Arching Rules

1. This directory is free; therefore, the editors can reject any site for any reason or no reason.
2. A fairly strict interpretation of the rules will be followed when reviewing submitted links. This means even minor errors like poor spelling, incorrect caplitalization will most likely get rejected without full review. The stricter rules make a better, "cleaner" directory.
3. If you don't like the rules, that's tough.

Content Rules Links and Articles

1. No adult/ porn related websites (this would include "Escort services").
2. No gambling related websites.
3. No racist, hateful or otherwise politically disturbing websites.
4. Art/ artist sites with modest nudity will be decided case by case.
5. Online pharmacies or mail-order drug sellers are not allowed. Actual brick and mortor pharmacies who do not sell online or via mail-order will be considered.

The following types of websites, as determined by an editor, will be rejected.

6. Sites that are specifically or solely designed to be for Ad-Sense advertising or similar pay-per-click.

7. Annoying pop-ups. Pop-ups = automatic rejection.

8. Any false or misleading information as determined by the editors.

9. Sites will minimal content and only external links leading to other sites.

10. Sites that are exlusively designed for affiliate leads with little or no legitamate content.

11. Any site with very little content. Such as a blog with only 3 or less posts.

12. Any site that improperly or illegally uses another company's established product trade mark in the link title.

The editors of this website reserve the right to accept or deny ANY link or article for any or no reason.

IF ANY WEBSITE IS IN VIOLATION OF ANY OF THE ABOVE IT WILL BE DELETED WITHOUT REVIEW.

Review process and approval

1. May take up to 30 days.
2. You must confirm your email address within 24 hours by the automated email when you submit your link. If it is not confirmed in 24 hours it will be automatically deleted from the queue.

3. Reciprocal links are NOT required, but we appreciate them and will review submissions providing reciprocal links much quicker than regular free links.

Standards and Criteria (strictly enforced)

ALL LINKS MUST BE ENGLISH LANGUAGE. ALL WEBSITES SUBMITTED MUST HAVE AN ENGLISH VERSION.

1. Title/ Anchor text must be no more than 3 - 5 words. Must be a properly capitalized title, not a list of keywords.
2. Description must be:
    a. Objective and consise.
    b. Do not use superlatives like "best, top, awesome"
    c. Do NOT use "CALL TO ACTION" phrases. i.e. "buy the best selling brands now!"
    d. Descriptions must be in third-person active voice. i.e "Provides web design services", NOT "Let us design your website"
    e. Lists of keywords in the description will be rejected.
    f. URLs, phone numbers, mailing address must not be included in the Title or Description.

    -- Think "DMOZ" when writing your title and description.

3. All submissions subject to minimal edit. Most that need editing are simply rejected.

4. If the editor finds the title, description, URL or category choice unacceptable, it will be deleted from the queue with or without notice.

5. If the description is poor or violates the above rules, the submission will be rejected.

6. "Deep links" are accepted, however only one instance of your domain can appear anywhere in the link directory; so if you want to use an interior page of your site as your URL, make it a good one. (FYI: "deep links" are links other than the domain home page. Ex. http://www.zindexica.com/latest-links.html is a "deep link" because it points to an interior page of the website.)

If your site is rejected, you must resubmit it just like the first time. We do not save any records of rejected or deleted links. Once they are gone, they are gone. Do Not email asking WHY? Just read over the rules and try again. Persistant emails demanding answers will get your IP banned.

Remember: Its a directory listing, not a marketing ad.

TOP REASONS LINKS ARE REJECTED!

  1. Email is not confirmed. You must confirm your email via a link sent to you.
  2. Site content violates rules. (porn, gambling, etc)
  3. Title is too long or a list of keywords
  4. Description is not objective and not in the third person active voice.
  5. Non-english language site
  6. Fake website with no real content.
  7. Poor grammar, mis-spelling, improper capitalization

Articles

To be accepted an article must be about a subject matter other than your business or website. In other words, it should be about a subject related to your business or website, but not about your actual business or website in a promotional way. It must be written without any self promotion or promotion of any business or website. At the bottom, the author information will be added with a anchored link to your website of choice. However, the content of the article must not be promotional in any sense.

  • An article must be at least 350 words and no more than 1000 words by MS Word word-count tool.
  • An article must be reasonably well written with few grammatical or spelling errors.
  • An article must be in English language only… no exceptions.
  • Unique articles are preferred, but if you are distributing the same articles on many article publishing websites, it may also be accepted.
  • Plagiarism is strictly forbidden.
  • An editor may accept or reject any article for any reason without explanation.
