Hi,

Please forgive me if this is in the wrong forum, if so, please direct me to the correct one.

Previously our site www.hotjewellery.co.uk was in the following directory:

Home : regional: europe: united kingdom: business and economy: shopping Jewellery - shopping

It has now vanished! Can anyone tell me why, or put it back for us thanks!

It didn't lose it because they are the same, it lost it because we consider the two to be the same company, and therefore will get one listing.

My advice to you would be that you provide a prominent link on the one that IS listed to the other, so that your customers can readily find the information/services they need.

Hope this helps.

Just out of interest. If the company has two websites, but they are completely different with regard to the service they are providing can webmasters not submit both websites?

It all depends on how completely different they are.

A pair of jewellery sites obviously aren't. OTOH, a company selling computers and running a taxi business may need focused listings in different branches of the category tree.

There isn't a fancy algorithm - just common sense :)

If you ask the question in general, the answer has to be "no". There are very very few exceptions -- it is really hard to imagine one. Even jimnoble's example probably would get one local listing (for all the services the business provided in its locality) and perhaps one Shopping listing (if it shipped computers worldwide.) -- But that's no more listings than a computer business that handles both walkin customers and global shipping.

For all practical purposes, the answer is "no". One business, one listing.

www.crescent-fashion-jewellery.co.uk Removed from DMOZ - Why?

Hi,

I am wondering why our site http://www.crescent-fashion-jewellery.co.uk has recently been removed from DMOZ, it has been in the directory for years.

I think it was in:

Regional/Europe/United_Kingdom/Business_and_Economy/Shopping/Jewellery/

If this post should be located somewehere else, please tell me.

Thanks

Daniel
