It seems as though you are not understanding what we mean when we say it is a leads generation site.

It doesn't matter how many ribbons and bows (content) you put on it, the primary purpose of the site is to gather/capture information about prospects.

As long as that is the overriding purpose of the site, it is unlistable -- even if you add 200 more pages.

In my mind/heart the primary purpose of creating debt consolidation care was to help people get rid of their debt. I created the site after the problems i faced being in debt and the net of misinformation which was woven around me by the media. it started with a couple of pages of content and then it grew over time to close to 2000 pages of content and an active forums

I am sad to hear that when a dmoz editor looks at the site they think that the primary purpose of the site is to gather information about prospects.

What changes would i need to make to make my primary purpose more obvious and not be mistaken as to what is my primary purpose.

Couple of changes that i can think of:

1. move the signup form away from the home page

2. or, get rid of signup compltely and move completely over to contextual advertising provided by the search engines.

Any other suggestions ..

Also if i go ahead and implement the suggestions .. and stick to them .. will i be seen as a site whose primary purpose is to help people get rid of their debt and gathering information about prospects is a way for the site owner to pay his bills just like any other site does it to monetize its content. be it search engines with their contextual ads or other site owners with lead forms or contextual ads.

Once again .. thanks for your volunteer time..

Not to be rude, but you know know (and seem to understand) what the major issue is. It is not our role in life to redesign your website, we'd rather build a directory.

Go forth, do thy thing, understanding that the vehemence with which we delivered the message suggests the depth of the problem with regards to your site. So whatever fixes you make should be more than superficial/cosmetic.

None. You build a website for any purpose you want. We list websites we want. If these two meet that is fine. If they don't we both just go our own way.

We don't say you have a bad website, we just say that we don't want to list this kind of website.
