i posted a submission when robozilla visited my site and was informed by Totalxsive that my site had been turned down numerous times because of affiliate links since then ive redone my site and added content and resubmited it i have affiliate links in it and was wondering if i still wont get a listing because of them.And in response to the posts in Games/Gambling/Directories has vanished? a lot of sites dont make 5 to 6 figures a month and have a lot more content than some of them that where listed in their and cant afford to pay to advertise all over every search engine.

Re: submission denile

I'm not clear what you are asking. Note well, though, that when an editor says "not enough content" that may be shorthand for "not enough useful, relevant, unique content." If the problem with a site was that it did not have enough UU&R "blue chiral widget" content to get into the BCW category, adding "handcrafted helical gadget" content will not help.

In the face of the fact that the ODP publishes its own directory of gambling sites, it will be hard to ever establish that any site has UU&R "gambling directory" content. What is UU&R GD content? Why, it can only be that you list gambling sites the ODP doesn't list. And what would happen if we saw that your site listed one such site that you listed but the ODP didn't? We'd simply add that one such site to the ODP, and THEN delete your site, for lack of uniqueness of content.

What it comes down to, is that the more carefully a "Directories" category is looked at, the harder it will be for any sites to ever qualify for that category again -- not because they are competing with the ODP but because they CAN'T compete with the ODP. And "VERY hard at the Gambling Directories category" is EXACTLY where LOTS of editors are looking.

Editors are not going to be considering the amount of profit a site makes (they don't know, and vicemeisters often lie about it anyway) or where a site is advertised (since the ODP doesn't carry advertising anyway) or how much a site spends on advertising (none of which comes to the ODP anyway.)

Re: submission denile

When you look at your page 3/4 of the page is affiliate content. I guess you are using your online games and game guides as your unique content but when you weigh that versus the affiliate content you have you are in the negative and I would reject on that - imho.
 

Re: submission denile

so would you suggest taking some of it off the home page and adding more content on whats inside
