Your asking for reason as to why submitting your site to so many directories take so much time . Well its simple he clearly said its mannual so try yourself submitting to various directories and see how many you can submit to daily. Cheers
No, I'm just asking about the communication issue, if a job is taking longer than expected then it's common courtesy to let the client know
Well , I eated more then i could vomit, about this "long term project" . For a while I can't accept any new orders, only because I am to busy ending the curent projects, I am very sorry , however I am gona send you a PM in a week or so. (to you , and to anybody interested) thanks in advance.
Just be sure to tell him that he should use your email adress... Found out that normally submissions are done with his gmail account + name. IMO that is not good, as you have no way of communicating with the directories, don't get approval emails, can't ask questions about the submissions and more importantly alot of directories think you're either spamming or not the owner of the directory(which in this case is true) and don't accept your website. Not to mention that the top directories require an emailadress from the domain itself. He also stated that 25-50% of my submissions are done, that would be 150-300 directories. I have outsourced many directory submissions to alot of different people and ALWAYS the site has been spidered within 2 days. This one is a brand new one and therefore can only be spidered if it is accepted by one of the directories. It has been a good few days since he told me that and the site is still not spidered, even though he claims it has been submitted to 150-300 directories. This can only mean that: A) he hasn't submitted yet and he's lying B) none of the directories accepted my website, for some reason(maybe the emailadress...) All this and the fact that it is taking alot longer than the promised 4-7 days I can say nothing else but don't use his services. Sorry, but business is business and this offer is NOT a good one.
Well , i allready shoed you a demo of the first submisions. you told me that they aren't ok because i didn't used yourname+your e-mail adress... I think that I allready told you that I will resubmit evertyhing using your e-mail address. Sorry for this long delay, but it's easter here, in Romania
I would think the Eastern period is over by now... I also tried to send you a PM, but received this: softgroups has chosen not to receive private messages or may not be allowed to receive private messages. Therefore you may not send your message to him/her. This is taking far too long, since I have paid over 4 weeks ago and haven't received anything at all. I demand you finish my project before friday 12may06 or you return the $45 immediately. <edit> just noticed he's banned... is there anyway I can communicate with him as I obviously need to speak with him <edit>
Hello everyone softgroups is incurring a temporary ban right now (for a very funny reason indeed ) He is on my messenger list so he asked me to post this message in thread, since he cannot post of send PMs right now. I think he would be back in a weeks time. Anyhow, heres the message:
