pedrom Posted September 12, 2004 Posted September 12, 2004 I have submited two web sites to the computers -Internet category last month, but I am unsure if I submited the websites to a sub-category. Is there any way to find out which subcategories did I submit the websites to? The Websites: http://www.easylogics.com http://www.websitefocus.net My best regards and appologize for the bother
Meta nea Posted September 12, 2004 Meta Posted September 12, 2004 I'm afraid there is no way of finding it out, particularly not for a category tree as huge as Computers/Internet. You can do either one of these things: Post a status request in the Submissions Status forum, making your best guess as to where you think your sites may have been suggested to, or resubmit them now - once - to the one most suitable category for each site, and after a month come back and ask for status.

pedrom Posted September 12, 2004 Author Posted September 12, 2004 Thank you Nea! If I resubmit the sites, will they make my prior submission obsolete?
dogbows Posted September 12, 2004 Posted September 12, 2004 If you managed to submit to the exact categories in most cases the second will overwrite the first. But if you submit to different categories then you will have two submissions somewhere for both. But we do not consider two submissions to be a major problem. And since volunteer editors may edit at random within the categories that they have editing rights, they will be there until an editor decides to review them.
Meta hutcheson Posted September 12, 2004 Meta Posted September 12, 2004 One resubmittal won't be a problem. Either it will overwrite the first one automatically, or an editor will eventually notice and remove one of them. Either it will be no problem, or it'll be no problem we don't deal with every day. We save tactical nuclear retaliation for MUCH more serious cases.
pedrom Posted September 12, 2004 Author Posted September 12, 2004 Thank you for your responses. I was affraid that two submissions for the same URL would be considered to be spam. Thank you very much for the help. Best regards
Meta hutcheson Posted September 12, 2004 Meta Posted September 12, 2004 Two submittals for the same URL are allowed by the guidelines. If the URL itself is spam, (such as if it's a commercial doorway, lead generator, affiliate, single-product-line vanity domain, mirror, etc.) one submittal is spam and the second is respam. But we hope (and assume) that doesn't apply here.
