Assuming that you dont mean they want on THE index page of the domains root, ie domain.com/index.html, then you can obey their rules and tend to YOUR needs as well. You create new directories and for those particular LL owners that insist on index.html and only x amount of links, THATS their page

now if you ARE talking about LL's saying give me domain.com/index.html, or if a LL owner just isnt happy with getting a unique folder (for god knows WHAT reason ) you just might be right about the assessment you made.........

Rules to ensure ones profits (like you stick to the niche of the LL, you accurately describe your site, not putting the LL's recip 20 rows down at number 44 recip) those are legit rules, as are rules to keep ones butt outta jail or civil court. those a webmaster should obey or else find another LL.

But Rules for the sake of "I'm in charge and I say so", I personally dont have time for that. People with that much anger are not good to deal with online or off. I can go back to a regular day job and get a boss like that anytime I want............

anyway, you might try the directory/index.html method and see how many LL owners are satisfied you are sticking to their rules.

Interesting thread - a little thought that keeps running through my head - those that require their recip to be on an index.html page are never the largest traffic LLs nor are they listed very well in the SEs - I wonder why that is?
If everyone could fall in line with GGs/Richards and Tommys rules (and I guess mine) then they should be able to get accepted anywhere - and I dont think any of us require a certain page other than to say that it would be "disrespectful" to put GGs recip on index321.html
