iainwill Posted March 3, 2004 Posted March 3, 2004 A few months ago I submitted www.spearconnect.co.uk Can you tell me the status. The category was I believe http://www.dmoz.com/Regional/Europe/United_Kingdom/Scotland/Midlothian/Business_and_Economy/ Thanks Iain
Meta kokopeli Posted March 3, 2004 Meta Posted March 3, 2004 It was reviewed and denied because there was no content--just the logo of your ISP. When I look at it just now, it says that the domain has been registered and to check back soon to view the site. You would need to submit after you build your site for it to be listed.
bobrat Posted March 3, 2004 Posted March 3, 2004 That's weird, it works for me now. It's a full site with several pages.
Meta kokopeli Posted March 3, 2004 Meta Posted March 3, 2004 That's weird, it works for me now. It's a full site with several pages. I just tried it again, and I too am seeing the actual website--it was only about an hour ago that I viewed what I would consider to be a coming soon type of sign. The editor who also saw nothing found those results in early January. I'm not sure what the deal is, but it looks like something must be wrong. If you have it up and working, you can resubmit...
bobrat Posted March 3, 2004 Posted March 3, 2004 Maybe the ISP is not reliable, I've had a few websites I've reviewed that seem to come and go from day to day. One day, I get a site not found, the next it's back, and so on. BTW, I tried three different browsers, just in case that was the problem, and all worked.
iainwill Posted March 4, 2004 Author Posted March 4, 2004 This is very strange and not a little worrying. The site has been up and running successfully since Sept 2003. I would never have submitted to DMOZ if it hadn't been finished. The ISP is high quality and the reliability stats are great.
Guest Posted March 4, 2004 Posted March 4, 2004 I suggest you talk to your hosting company. :o The problem is that http://spearconnect.co.uk/ and http://www.spearconnect.co.uk/ are not resolving to the same place. Your site is only visible if someone types in the www in the address. :tree:
Guest gimmster Posted March 5, 2004 Posted March 5, 2004 I think you should talk to your hosting company. :o http://www.spearconnect.co.uk and http://spearconnect.co.uk do not resolve to the same place. Tht's the reason there are different pages being viewed. :tree:
iainwill Posted April 12, 2004 Author Posted April 12, 2004 ISP screwed up Guys Thanks for your help. The hosting company mananged to not have spearconnect.co.uk supported, but http://www.spearconnect.co.uk was fine! It's fixed now, but I guess it puts my submission back 4 months. I've resubmitted - can you tell me the status? Thanks
iainwill Posted April 11, 2005 Author Posted April 11, 2005 Hi Wonder if you could give me an update on http://www.spearconnect.co.uk submitted to http://www.dmoz.com/Regional/Europe...ss_and_Economy/. Last update was April last year where I had to resubmit because my ISP didn't have the correct pointers in place. Thanks Iain
iainwill Posted April 14, 2005 Author Posted April 14, 2005 Status on www.spearconnect.co.uk Threads merged. Please don't start new ones about the same subject. Hello Could you give me a status on http://www.spearconnect.co.uk which I submitted to http://www.dmoz.com/Regional/Europe/United_Kingdom/Scotland/Midlothian/Business_and_Economy/ in April 2004. Thanks Iain
Editall/Catmv arubin Posted April 14, 2005 Editall/Catmv Posted April 14, 2005 http://resource-zone.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=11101 You may ask there one month after your last resubmission.
iainwill Posted April 15, 2005 Author Posted April 15, 2005 It was April 2004 My last re-submission was April 2004 !! It is one year since my last re-submission!!
jimnoble Posted April 15, 2005 Posted April 15, 2005 It's awaiting review in ../Edinburgh/../E_Commerce (to where you suggested it). We can't predict when that might be. If it hasn't been listed in 6 months from today, please ask again in this same thread.
jimnoble Posted April 15, 2005 Posted April 15, 2005 I'm puzzled. I couldn't find an address on the http://www.spearconnect.co.uk/ website, but it claims to be part of http://www.spearsolutions.com/ . That gives an address in Cardiff and has also been suggested to ODP. Please explain.
iainwill Posted April 19, 2005 Author Posted April 19, 2005 Address HI I thought I had posted a reply, but can't see it anywhere, so here goes again... My company address is 22 Plewlands Gardens, Edinburgh, EH10 5JP. I do have a license to use Spear resources in Cardiff, but we are a totally seperate company doing our own things. Kind regards Iain
Alucard Posted April 19, 2005 Posted April 19, 2005 Iain, Editors will review sites based only on what appears on the site. Many of them do not read this forum. So it is important that if you want them to see an address, it be included on the site. Hope this makes sense.
