Guest Posted July 15, 2002 Posted July 15, 2002 I was wondering about the status of this site. It was in the directory as recently as a few weeks ago, yet now I am unable to find it. Was it removed for some reason? I believe it was listed in this category: http://dmoz.org/Shopping/Weddings/Invitations_and_Announcements/ Thanx
Meta hutcheson Posted July 15, 2002 Meta Posted July 15, 2002 It appears to be a directory that was finally mined for links and removed.
Guest Posted July 16, 2002 Posted July 16, 2002 What exactly do you mean by "mined for links?" Does this mean that they took all of the catalogs offered on the site and added their sites to the directory? Also, this site has valuable content (like wedding tips and planning info) besides linking to a few catalog sites. Would this qualify it for inclusion again, or should I not bother?
thehelper Posted July 16, 2002 Posted July 16, 2002 Yes, mined for links means exactly what you think it does. If you do resubmit your site, Shopping would not be the place for it as you do not appear to sell anything. If you could find a category suitable for your other content you might try submitting there.
Guest Posted July 17, 2002 Posted July 17, 2002 I have tried resubmitting the site to this category- Top: Society: Relationships: Weddings: Directories and Guides: United States. I think this category more accurately portrays the sites' services. Could someone let me know if the site is listed in the queue and how long the backlisting is? Thanks!
