Re: Big Bear Frontier

Ah, you submitted a "new URL" request, not an "Update URL" request. (I had already loaded my guns to blast you for alias-URL spamming.)

But I went to the OLD site (the one that's already listed) and didn't see any indication that it wasn't still the right site. So I wouldn't change the URL. (That policy is to avoid people copying your website and then stealing your ODP listing with an "update URL" request.

Please change the old site to contain either its new URL,or a "home page" link to the new URL, or something so that the editor can go to that site and verify that it's really moving.

If the new URL is already on the site and I overlooked it, you could just post here with the URL of the PAGE ON the OLD site, POINTING TO the NEW site. And, hey, it'll be just as easy to update the link as to reply again.

I have made a note on the homepage to all our visitors explaining the upcoming URL change. Please let me know if this is sufficient to process my request. Thank you very much. {moz}

It's done. The change will be visible when the public pages are next automatically updated, and will be in future versions of the RDF.

The update request was not accepted. The reason being that it is far from obvious which is the "main" site, since the two are an exact replica of each other. Since the email address is a "bigbearfrontier.com" email, then that appears to be the "main" URL.

If you wish to get the other one listed, then you will need to do a redirect from the "old" site to the "new" one, and then resubmit an update request. Thanks.

I'm confused
In your original thread http://resource-zone.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=6175 you asked for the exact opposite to happen.
Could I please know the status for the request for http://www.big-bear-cabins.com/ to http://www.bigbearfrontier.com

We had originally intended to switch the URL to BigBearFrontier.com but because our origiinal URL Big-Bear-Cabins.com has has a ton of marketing done on it we are not able to track reservations under our current tracking system effectively. Most of our traffic comes in under www.big-bear-cabins.com and the redirect to Big Bear Frontier disables our ability to track lead conversions. So we would like it changed back to Big-Bear-Cabins.com and we will stick with that one. We have 301'd BigBearFrontier.com to Big-Bear-Cabins.com and I will change the email address to reflect that change as well ( I forgot to change that). I appologize for our mistake in having it changed initially. Unfortunately we didn't anticipate some of the tracking issues which have come to light since our original request. Thank you very much for your response.

Update?

Is there any news about this change. We submitted this in December and it is important for us to get it squared away. Any help would be appreciated. :D

You may well have done, but the only one we can see was made on March 11th which is less than the required month ago. Please be patient; we'll get to it in time. There's no point making further submissions because they just overwrite any earlier ones.
