baypound Posted April 18, 2004 Author Posted April 18, 2004 www.driverhotline.com am i an idiot or is this site user unfriendly i don't know what im doing. simply want to know the status of our website. http://dmoz.org/Business/Transportation_and_Logistics/Trucking/Employment/
thehelper Posted April 18, 2004 Posted April 18, 2004 The submission is currently awaiting editorial review. You are not an idiot. I don't think this site is user unfriendly. Sometimes it just takes new people asking questions here a few tries to get the hang of it. Also, this forum tends to get very busy and sometimes posts fall off the front page. If that happens just bump the thread back up like you did before so it can get a chance to get looked at again. I am actually surprised that we are able to answer as many of these status requests as we do based on the volume of posts here. Have a great day!
baypound Posted April 19, 2004 Author Posted April 19, 2004 www.driverhotline.com http://dmoz.org/Business/Transportation_and_Logistics/Trucking/Employment/ Helper - Thank you very much for the feedback. We are all anxious about being listed and I got frustrated. We are getting the hang of things in here so we will check back every couple of days for word on the listing. Thank you ALL for your patience. Regards, MGM-DriverHotline
djdeeds Posted April 19, 2004 Posted April 19, 2004 we will check back every couple of days psst! Make that no more than every month.
thehelper Posted April 19, 2004 Posted April 19, 2004 Yes, go back and read the forum guidelines. It can take a while to get a review. Posting here will not facilitate a review. You can only get a status report once a month. Please keep all future questions about this submission in this thread.
baypound Posted April 28, 2004 Author Posted April 28, 2004 www.driverhotline.com http://dmoz.org/Business/Transporta...ing/Employment/ We'll try to be more patient and check back monthly. We are anxious to get listed. question: it seems that we were listed before and able to find our site when we did a search but now the only place we show up is on sites that we are linked to. We submitted the site in February. trying to be patient- bay
bobrat Posted April 28, 2004 Posted April 28, 2004 That URL was never listed - was it this one http://www.hrinterchange.com ?
baypound Posted April 28, 2004 Author Posted April 28, 2004 www.driverhotline.com http://dmoz.org/Business/Transporta...ing/Employment/ No sir, the only way we ever submitted it was "www.driverhotline.com" for a few weeks we were able to bring it up with a search. now we can't and that's why we have been posting here. Thanks for your help Bobrat
bobrat Posted April 28, 2004 Posted April 28, 2004 Were you doing the search in ODP, and what were you searching on?
baypound Posted April 28, 2004 Author Posted April 28, 2004 www.driverhotline.com http://dmoz.org/Business/Transporta...ing/Employment/ Searches were done on various engines; Yahoo/Google etc. Not on ODP (which is where we should have been looking, right??) If you could, please let me know when to check back. We don't want to waste your time. thanks a million!
bobrat Posted April 28, 2004 Posted April 28, 2004 That makes sense, it showed up search engines because it had been submiited to them or they found you though links from other web sites. So you are not showing up their for all kinds of reasons, which are not something what we get into in the forum. Just wanted to make sure that I understood, thanks.
baypound Posted May 25, 2004 Author Posted May 25, 2004 www.driverhotline.com http://dmoz.org/Business/Transporta...ing/Employment/ checking status to see when we might reach critical mass.
baypound Posted June 17, 2004 Author Posted June 17, 2004 www.driverhotline.com http://dmoz.org/Business/Transporta...ing/Employment/ we understand we are up for review. Is there anyway to determine when this might take place? any feedback would be appreciated. bay
bobrat Posted June 17, 2004 Posted June 17, 2004 Sorry - no change in status. How long until my site will be reviewed? Secondary status checks now require a six month wait. Please see http://resource-zone.com/forum/announcement.php?f=22 Ask again in this thread after December 16.
baypound Posted June 17, 2004 Author Posted June 17, 2004 www.driverhotline.com http://dmoz.org/Business/Transporta...ing/Employment/ Thanks bobrat! Man this is tough. we ARE being found and we have clients wanting our services. The problem is, the "stuff" we are to deliver requires us to reach the mass. That means being listed with ODP. anyway thanks and we'll try back in Dec. P.S. if you have any tips for us, they would be greatly appreciated. bay

It's now January 11 and still no response?!? We've been paying for a website for over a year now and I can't seem to get listed. Why? Just got through reading some other postings and one guy was told that his submission may have got "eaten up by the servers". ??? Will someone kindly respond to this? I hope I'm not posting in the wrong place it has been a while since we've been in here and we never really knew exactly how to work this forum. I hope we haven't offended you. Please, respond.

Meta hutcheson Posted January 12, 2005 Meta Posted January 12, 2005 Rejected. It's not your behavior that offends, it is merely the lack of unique content on the site (which is the case for 99+% of submittal rejections.
baypound Posted January 12, 2005 Author Posted January 12, 2005 www.driverhotline.com http://dmoz.org/Business/Transporta...ing/Employment/ http://dmoz.org/Business/Transporta...ment/Employers/ Lack of original content? We're hiring truck drivers! No gimmicks. We're changing peoples lives here. We represent one of the largest trucking companies in the country(USA). Our top driver made over $87,000 dollars last year. What in the world does original content have to do with that?! This guy can buy things for him and his family. They're not just getting by like so many. We are begging you to reconsider. If you want us to change the site in any way, shape or form please just tell us what you want. We will be happy to.
