How long should you wait to be listed after submitting?

[KG Gary]

There are a few link lists that are way behind with reviews, and I mean over a year behind.
One example is FetishPhiles. I still submit there regularly even though I've never been listed. Over a hundred freesites with a recip on each one. A while back I PM'd the owner here and asked if there was a problem. He explained that he is way behind with reviews, so hopefully at some point I'll start to see those old freesites get a new boost. Actually, it's been a while since that last PM.


Best thing to do is to ask here if reviews are behind on a particular link list, and then maybe PM the owner/reviewer to ask if all is okay.
If you post the link list names somebody should be able to tell you if they won't be listing you - I've had to drop several over the last six months once it was confirmed here that they no longer function as a "proper" link list.

I wouldn't take the recip off at all unless you know for sure that you haven't been listed - and won't be listed in the future.
In my opinion it's just not worth the trouble to go back and edit unless you have a particular gripe with that link list owner.

Damn that was longer than I expected.

Submit and forget. Some LL will review your sites many months from now. After it's built, just forget and check your stats and adjust recips for future sites.

I agree with Porn Junkie and Howling Wolf, submit, if it's not listed in a month with no notice as to why not, forget 'em. IMO if someone is a year or even two months behind on submissions they're just not serious about this business.
When I try out new lists I give them a week. If I'm doing something an LL doesn't like I'm not going to wait months to find out what it is
That said, I don't bother changing recips if I'm not listed, I just build another one and replace that LL on my recip tables.

It's a shitty feeling thinking that you've been faithfully linking and submitting for ages before you realise it's a waste of time, but if you know that they are behind and you've been assured that you'll get listed eventually then I don't see a problem with waiting for the later boost in traffic.
