Use of "ENTER HERE" and "CLICK HERE"
 
Hello everyone.

This seems to be one of the biggest issues my reviewer and I come across these days when looking at free sites. Granted, most free site webmasters use these terms sparingly and in good form throughout their site. The assumption as to what the surfer will get when clicking those terms is generally understood. BUT, there are some webmasters that are taking advantage of those terms to trick the surfer into thinking he is getting something he is not.

Here is what will get your site rejected from hoes.com regarding the use of "ENTER HERE" and "CLICK HERE".

1. The use of "ENTER HERE" on your first page that is above the actual "ENTER HERE" link for the content page.

This includes using text like "Enter Here For Hot Teens". The reason I can't accept that is because the surfer is looking for teens already when visiting your niche site. This tricks them into thinking they are getting the content they expect when visiting your site. Using this text on your gallery pages isn't as big of a deal since the surfer has already figured out how to navigate your site.

2. The use of "CLICK HERE" or "ENTER HERE" as standalone items linking to your sponsor. At least incorporate them into your banner or banner text!

3. The use of "CLICK HERE" in a font that is the same size or larger than your "ENTER" link on the main page. This is very deceptive.

Those are the main things we look for when reviewing a site. We get SO MANY submissions every day that we have to be a little strict when reviewing. Sites that are obviously trying to bend the rules are the first to go.

So "Click Here to see hot teens @ Paysite.com" is acceptable?

I agree. I am starting to look at that as well. Click Here being twice the size as Enter Here and being right above it. Too deceptive IMO.

Same here, not sure what I'm doing about it yet, I am declining more stuff then I'm accepting and the submits seem to be getting worse by the day.

How about 'CLICK HERE TO ENTER BY CLICKING HERE'?

Sorry, I have self-restraint issues.:D

Click Here or Enter Here on GALLERY pages is ok. It's the index page that is an issue now as it is getting borderline the way some people use it.
