Status Check for http://www.1800usahotels.com/

Hello,

Could you tell me if my site http://www.1800usahotels.com/ is still in the queue for the following category?

http://www.dmoz.com/Recreation/Travel/Lodging/Consolidators/

Also do you recognize any problems as to why it wouldn't have been added?


Thank you in advance.

See affiliates for the reasons why dmoz doesn't list this kind of site.

Thanks for the reply.... I have a follow up question however.

It's true that we offer an "affiliate program", however the content on the site is ours.
Does that still classify as an affiliate site?

I look forward to your reply.

Yes, as you might have guessed will list the site that maintains the actual hotel booking database, but not the affiliates. We also don't list mirrors. Nor, generally, do we list subdomains/deeplinks (although there are exceptions).

As a result, your company is listed (twice) as http://www.vtstraveldirect.com/ in:

http://dmoz.org/Regional/North_America/United_States/New_Jersey/Localities/M/Mahwah/Business_and_Economy
http://dmoz.org/Recreation/Travel/Specialty_Travel/Corporate/Travel_Agents

Since you already have one Recreation/Travel/ subcategory listing, I doubt that we would list any of your various subdomains (which are effectively deeplinks of your main site) in any other Recreation/Travel subcategories. If you think that the Corporate/Travel_Agents listing is inappropriate, I suggest using the "Update URL" link at the top of the .../Corporate/Travel_Agents category, to explain where and why you think the listing should be moved.
