Status of www.exclusivehotels-riviera.com

Hi,

I'm checking on the status of www.exclusivehotels-riviera.com that I submitted to Regional: Europe: France: Travel and Tourism: Lodging: Hotels

I think that this category is not the best ... so i submitted again the website to Regional: Europe: France: Regions: Provence-Alpes-Cote d'Azur: Alpes-Maritimes: Travel and Tourism: Lodging: Hotels

I wait your answer

Thanks a lot in advance

Best regards

Jeremy

It is highly unlikely that your site will be accepted since it uses an affiliate booking system. I don't think the site has sufficient alternative content to be listed on its own.
 

Thanks for your answer

Yes our Website use an affiliate booking system but a lot of websites use affiliate booking systems ... Each website can't have his own booking system ...

I don't think that ODP just list the major websites, with their own booking system ...

Our website has a unique content and his own design ...

So do you think our website can be listed on ODP ?

If yes, can you tell me the status of the submission ?
If not, what can we change to be listed in ODP ?

Thanks a lot for your help.

Can't it?

Why not? Your site is offering nothing new to the surfer - just the same list of hotels with the same booking agent.

>> Our website has a unique content... <<

What unique content? I couldn't find anything specific.

>> ...and his own design ... <<

This counts for zilch. We don't rate sites on how they look, only on how much unique content they have and how useful they are to the user.

>> If not, what can we change to be listed in ODP ? <<

Well, perhaps some more in-depth reviews of the hotels (rather than just a few lines), user contributed reviews and/or a rating system; basically anything that the other hotel booking sites do not have.
