Hi

Is http://www.immunity-boosters.com in the dmoz queue?

Does it have a chance of getting listed?

What type of content should be added to it to be of value to dmoz?

Thanks

I tried to look at the site to check out the content and I received a "The page cannot be displayed" error all three times. <img src="/images/icons/confused.gif" alt="" />

It's appearing fine to me, kokopeli. Maybe it was a temporary (or browser-specific) glitch.

In terms of content of the site, though, I don't think I'd personally list it. The informational content is very light and covered by a number of other sites. And I'll be honest, it looks to me as though the informational content is simply there to wrap around the affiliate links -- and affiliate links don't constitute "unique content".

I just got the same error on Microsoft Internet Explorer, and on Mozilla it said "Operation timed out when attempting to contact "www.immunity-boosters.com/". It also timed out on Netscape for me, but my nestcape is old (ver 4.73) so that doesn't mean much. The other two are current versions. I am using a cable connection and my modem appears to be working correctly.

Since it worked for motsa it must just be some weird server thing. Might be worth checking into if it keeps up though <img src="/images/icons/wink.gif" alt="" /> .

The site just worked for me kokopeli, so my guess is your ISP is hosed. Try accessing it using the Anonymizer or Anonymouse.

The site loads fine for me on Mozilla, so it's not a browser-specific problem.

Thanks you two, rfgdxm I sent you a PM--if you wouldn't mind explaining a little further your suggestion above I would appreciate it. Thanks dfy for using the same browser, I'm going to try to figure out how to correct this. <img src="/images/icons/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Works OK in IE6 and agree with motsa.

For anyone reading, editor or submitter, who didn't understand what I meant:

http://nonymouse.com/anonwww.html
http://www.anonymizer.com

These are web proxies. If you can't reach a site normally with your ISP, double checking with these proxies should be able to narrow down whether the problem is with the site you are trying to reach, or your ISP. Just because you can't get to a site doesn't mean that it is down; your ISP may be broken.
