What dose this mean, when I am signing up

Hi,
I am trying to reg my forum on directories. I see the following on most directories when I fill in the details.



To validate the reciprocal link please include the
following HTML code in the page at the URL
specified above, before submiting this form:

I always click on the button that says free link (without reciprocal)
Why am I still seen the above and what dose it mean and how do I do it.
Thanks

 

It's a free directory that has changed to a reciprocal directory. If you are using an online directory list and can report that directory then do so. This way the person running the list can remove it. If you do not have such an option, move on to the next directory or try some other lists.

 

Thanks for the advice, yes I am using a directory list and the first three directories had this, so I thought I was doing something wrong.

 

If it's phpld directories, make sure you choose regular links option. And if there is no price option and this error message showed, this means that the directory is reciprocal required.
