Neither Jays or Marks sends out rejections - Unless I know you... hint, post here.
If I see your name in posts, newbie or not, I'll send an email.
A couple of you in this thread got them today
I think the pros and cons have already been covered. But time management is really key.
20 submits to the same category day after day doesn't work.
If you're going to become a webmaster, become a webmaster! notice the "Master" part.
Move outside your boundaries, (or the first sponsor you hooked up with that has free content).
This is a business, enough said.
Buy some content, get a good host, and things will improve for you dramatically!!!
(Ie, same sponsor being promoted - but Without sponsor content - Who gets listed first?)
Submitters have to remember that not only do we run LL's, but many also run tgps, or other stuff. Nearly all of us make our own free sites and pages and most of the time we use the sponsor content there. So by the time you submit, we already have it posted.
On average I only get 3-5 emails per week on why they weren't listed, and I answer them all. Like UW said, get to know the reviewer.
I'd said for the most part we're gatekeepers, but it's not like we don't have a clue.
Nice post UW!
I am accessible, just ask
(ok, ask nicely)
