Now, if someone asks why they are blacklisted at the big sites, I do take a look just to see if it's something I blacklist for. But I'm like MadMax in that I don't usually read all that many rejection threads for other lists. Even when I do, I don't often see the same things that the other reviewers do. We all catch different things. If someone gets snagged by another reviewer for having 4 links out on gallery 2, do you think I'm really going to take my time to go back and delete their site? Hell no. Smart submitters will fix the issue that caused the decline anyway.

I would be inclined to agree. There is human nature to think that what he describes does happen, and indeed it probably does;very rarely. In actuality the different Linklist often have rules that which vary considerably. Especially in regards to questions such as "what is a blindlink?" or "What are the content requirements?". Everyone has their own opinion on these things and so they run things accordingly.

I almost never look at other sites decline threads. And even if I do happen to notice that one of my submitters has been declined elsewhere...it makes no difference to me unless the submitter has gone over to the dark side.

Besides, posting site rejection questions in the forums helps everyone in the long run. Smart submitters learn from the mistakes of others and get sites listed more consistently and link lists get cleaner reviews. Ahhh...there's that symbiotic thing again :D

Thanks Chopsmith
Thats fine I have checked those and appealed accordingly.
My question is...........
If the sites are so closely reviewed, why was I able to to get listed for two months and then blacklisted when someone noticed I had a counter?
It would have been easier to reject my first site and set me straight.

I normally only look at decline threads when I see one of my partners name. Or the name of known cheater just see them get caught...again :D

It would have been a lot easier if you would have read the rules first, then you wouldn't have been blacklisted, and then you wouldn't be repeatedly bitching about how YOU fucked up and got blacklisted. What do ya think?

Thanks! |thumb

Again, this goes back to the premise of this whole thread...it's about relationships. You asked first, and got our advice and input and we've even traded messages about your free-sites going down temporarily. You're a perfect example of creating relationships and how they are beneficial to both parties. |thumb

Thanks useless warrior,
Thats cool, not bitching. I already acknowledged my mistake just asking those those questions as a newbie on the learning curve.
The more I know the better I get and as they say the only stupid question is that which goes unasked.

i think its very cool of reviewers to take the time to send rejection emails. i like to know when i fuck up so i dont do it again

Reason for this is that I know sometimes rejecting or deleting a site submission when you meant to do another can sometimes be a mistake.

One thing I got back on track with now (as of recently), is to send a quick email off to the submitter that if there is something wrong and its something that can be fixed, I will provide a solution. Once done I get them to reply back and then we do a 2nd review.

I think it is important to let the submitter know whether or not they got accepted. I know if I was one, I would want to know if I got in or not so I can move on without going days, weeks, or months wondering "did I" or "didn't I not get accepted" ....if I had recip banners in my sites and didn't know if i was accepted or not, I would be pissed knowing I have been sending traffic to them. At least an email notification by a LL or directory would allow me to know which recip to remove off that site.

I do know though that its all a two way relationship to make it all work. LL's would not be in business if it wasn't for submitters; likewise, submitters would not be doing too well either without them. It really is a business and it is an ongoing learning experience for "everyone" regardless how experienced someone is.

Anyways....its mocha time for me :)

TO TRUE

Why Netgoonie, you always know how to, erm, get down to it :)

Iv had an LL last week (no names) who iv heard nothing off, and im not listed ? And i was told they were one of the "big guys"

Who knows, maybe they lost their MoJo |shocking|
