I bought a directory recently and would like some help on a few things I have noticed. My other sites are HTML so I am not familiar with php (yet) I am just going to list my questions and agan I am new so the SEO questions I have may not be even relevant with using php link manager First off I notice that my h4 tag is actually above my h2 tag and does not follow regular tag structure. How do I fix this and can I? Next would be the URL' sthat they were written. They do not have all the funny symbols in them but capitalizes letters and underscores were used and I would like to rewrite them using a hypen and lowercase letters. Can i do this? Does anyone have any links as to how to properly optimize my site? As well as links for modules that I should install and how to properly run a directory...I dont want this to get lost in the shuffle The purpose of this directory is gambling. There are not many solid gambling directories out there that limit who they will accept. I plan on making sure thatall sites that will be listed must have unique content and its not copied, they follow linking to good neighbours etc..... Thanks for taking the time to read this and for answering .
Take a look at the STICKY Thread here in this category for a host of information about directories And read up on the local country and international laws and regulations re gambling You will find that some laws are very stringent be careful
Yes I know and I am not in a country that has made online gambling illegal through promotion, however there are some amazing sites out there even for informational purposes on helping players etc that are written through experience and in english (a regular player will understand) This is what I want to do...I dont want it to be another directory where only directory webmasters visit. It is an indexed site and had a PR3 (I know PR is useless but the PR and age interested me) URL is gambling related. I just finished reading a few of those articles, I am going to go and search for some URL rewrites so they are in the correct format. Thanks very much I appreacite your comments
Thanks for the comments kaus wish I could be more helpful but gambling is not a focused subject that I follow, but you have chosen a subject that has millions of followers and of course the PR and all that stuff, should be ignored as you quoted You mentioned 'unique content and its not copied' thats very POSITIVE follow that through as you develop your Reviews You will find lots of folks here will offer help Welcome on board here at DP and enjoy your stay Posting Tip try posting more often to build up interaction with other posters
Thanks for the warm welcome. I learned everything I know so far about creating sites fromforums and teh members...and everyone who has helped me has very high standards in regard to thier websites so I see how well a good buisness model can go. If I could ask one favour aboce everything else. I can not believe the amount of spam sites I am getting emails from. Is there a script that I can post for my own guidelines as far as accpetance goes and another for stopping these pharmacy/creditcard/insurance/mortgage people from nailing me..... Thanks for the posting tip...I have never really needed to use this forum before...our niches are so unrelated till now
If your submitting sites and using your personal email adress then you will get spammed by those few whom sell the emails to others. You should make a few emails and keep one that has nothing to do with your directory or its submissions and others just for submissions. PS... welcome aboard thx malcolm
Oh no my email is not attached..however I have the feature set to forward the emails eg, support@mydirectory is forwarded to my hotmail. I even turned the spam thing on and enabled the submit code
So what was the question you where asking above? Did you mean edit your guideline on the submit page? thx malcolm
I am not sure what you mean by that. what i am wonderng if there is a script that will disallow these people to submit to my site repeatedly. There has to be something that can detect if its a legit submission or just spam. and btw thanks
