The Development Gateway has been discussed internally. The deep links were not submitted. They were listed by an editor (who is not in any way associated with the site, but has a keen interest in development).

Problems as follows from top of list to bottam-

Cammie Berry- Dead Link

D&B Real Estate- Not a Real Estate Company Website when you follow the link.

Debbie Smith- She switch to Coldwell Banker. So title is inacurate

Kyle Sheetz- 1 of 2 sites listed

Mona Nies- Switched to Rashell Arnolds site

Odete Cesear- Works for Remax not Coldwell Banker

Tim Tennis- Sold his site to Kyle Sheetz So this is Kyles Secont site in same directory

Wade Wilcock- Broken Link

 

And as a side note- My site is submited but not included. I would be willing to become an editor for this category if you are willing to overlook my conflict of interest (I of course would act with integrity). [shameless plug removed]

Thx for all the hard work you editors do.

#2005 - all of these problems were dealt with by another editor on 10 January. Are you perhaps looking at the Google Directory, which reflects the state of play in our directory some weeks ago?

 

Please do not use this thread to promote your own websites or urge review of them. It will achieve nothing, except possibly the closure of the QC forum here if too many people try to use it in this way. When I tell you that we have thousands of submissions each day, I'm sure you will see that it would be madness for us to convey the impression that the best way to get a rapid review is to post in this thread!

The US Commercial Service listings seem OK to me. These are for local offices. (Again these deep links were not submitted, but listed by an editor with no connection to the website.)
