Ahh well.... Another directory....obviously not making my day And this directory had some name ....some name coz it's free! or rather was free until the last approval Check out this directory http://www.seowebdirectory.net Everything looks cool, doesn't it....the 3.1.0 version, the Green Shade template, cool number of listings. However when i checked the backlinks to allydirectory using MONG's backlink checker, i foundthat this directory is using nofollow tag for both the sponsors, that is alivedirectory and allydirectory and phpld as well. So why i didn't i contact him? That's the first thing i did. I used the contact us link on the template but the guy doesn't have any mailing address linked to contact.php so the mail was not sent. Okay then what next i did was submitted a submission saying about the copyright infringement. and blah blah. Guess what? He accepted the submission Lol. http://www.seowebdirectory.net/detail/link-5738.html I was just wondering, how serious people are while accepting links. Do they just keep it free for the sake of it!. This guy is insane for sure. And i m sorry if it's your directory. But this definitely is not the best thing i have seen in long long time. I checked on DP and this directory belongs to some guy name PIOTR. two posts is all he has. I have sent him mail, i have sent him PM, i have sent him a submission. ;-) Now i seriously don't know how to handle these kinda directories Alright, let me finish this post. And hey, if you didn't get a laugh at reading this....go through this again: http://www.seowebdirectory.net/detail/link-5738.html
WoW Some stupid ppl, ive seen the greenshade template ripped many many times I guess you used the ff plugin, comes in handy some times
In last couple of months or so, i have seen it being ripped four times But i often find people using nofollow or linkless template. I did mentioned i PM'ed him. Here, you also try doing it! http://forums.digitalpoint.com/member.php?u=55337 It does... Don't you have even better awards though The directory turned into paid from a free directory. So alexa rank drop was obvious
Well i won't rank for it. But that directory owner will certainly rank for it It's his site's url in the submitted or rather approved listing. Yes he recently changed it! I have the screenshot though! I saw his profile. And he was certainly online today and also probably in this thread. I wonder why he didn't remove nofollow for my directory. Is it a WAR!
If he was online and still not removed that listing made by you, it means that he is a biggest idiot I have ever encountered so far.
Nice! I've noticed several sites ripping off my templates in the past, trouble is there's not a lot you can do. I've sent emails to the site owners but generally they're ignored. Think your name and shame tactic is a good one
You said it!!!!! I learnt this name shame tactic from someone else. I think someone from DP. And most of the times (almost 80 percent) it works! For the other cases, we have to go with harder options. Obviously we don't like it! But do we have an option ? Do vote for this thread if in future someone opens the "Vote For The Funniest Thread Of DP for year 2007"
