RE 2257: What are your (link list admins) stances on changing content in old sites?

[Useless]

I don't see how one could possibly swap explicit content for non-explicit while remaining true to the category, title, and description. Do as Cleos says.

That's a concern of mine right there as well. Say I have a site that has a description of "Pretty blonde strips then fingers her hub cap hole" then I swap it out where she doesn;t actually touch herself then it's misleading. Unfortunately there's going to be discrepencies about that aspect of it.


Cleo made a good point about old links may not be still working. While that is a big possibility a lot of people fiter traffic to other places too so the site is still "worth" something to the creators of the freesite. As for links going 404, so long as no banning happens then it's perfectly fine that the bots remove those specific 404'ing links.

I think a lot of us are just going to have to swallow the fact that a lot of sites will be shit-canned. It's not always worth resubmitting them when you could just continue along your way making new sites daily since your advertising is probably more effective with newer work anyways. of course if we find a site that is netting good sales still and needs to be resubmitted, then of course it's worth the day it takes.

I don't actually use descriptions like that anymore. I used to, but a few link list owners would email me complaing about weird descriptions. Although, some would emial me cracking up laughing. Understandable though. Can be a bit confusing. Now I just use generic terms for the sites I build for my main employer.

I agree that we will not be doing anything for the 404s and 302s that occur due to people redirecting or pulling sites - since our bots will just pull the sites when they encounter those and are set to not BL right now - of course if they start 302 or 301 to nasty stuff it might tend to be a bad thing

It seems to me though that a bunch of your stuff was pulled recently (I may be remembering incorrectly) due to redirects or not found?

I sold the domain to someone. He fialed to change the DNS. I cannot host someone elses site. I made numerous contact attempts. All failed. I then pulled site. Htaccess was left behind as it's hidden in FTP, which was set to redirect 404, noindexes and bad requests to another domain and landing page I had set up.

Sorry for my "sharp" short winded post. I just spent 10 minutes making a fully detailed reply, I hit submit and this gay MSIE crashed.

Now I know why I use firefox and opera. I just used IE cause outlook launched it from the newsletter links.
