Well ya know what ..... Kudos to YOU for being REAL GREEN on the WAY! and the doggy in the pic isnt a humper if thats what it is lol as all i see is a set of eyes... heheheh
I don't have a problem with annual regular submissions, but am selective where I place them. The directories I've seen which use this payment method tend to be the ones which can be trusted to stay in business and invest in continually strengthening their sites.
DirectoryDump - Review Submisison Hello, John Scott Upon my review of your submission, it is unfortunate at this time that I could not accept your site. You are more than welcome to resubmit for another review once you have addressed any/all concerns that pertain to the guidelines. Thank you for your time and consideration is choosing DirectoryDump Web Directory Kind Regards, Rob hahaha john, I couldn't resist. Too much fun note* this is fictional, but John and I can joke about things and not take it to heart, unlike others.
some times annual listings are pretty much important. directories get over populated with time, so perhaps it is not all that a bad idea, but then while payment, i will always prefer a permanant featured or regular link over the yearly ones!
Good point John but this is not greedy it is just a business model. As far as I am concerned, I don't submit to phpld/esyndicat/indexu or any other cheap script based directories that charge more than $15/20 lifetime listings. This is just my opinion on how to promote my sites. Everybody here says that some phpld based directories are authority directories, I don't think so. If the owners stop paying all those recurring payments, their directories will go PR2 in the next update. So that's why they switched to annual payments. I don't have anything against this model, I only give my opinion on the value of such link. The only exception ($30) is probably romow because the guy is doing a very smart promotion to his directory. I pay for yahoo/msn/botw annually because of their authority. Again it all depends on how you think a link is worth. PS1: I use esyndicat for both enQuira and rakCha so what I said is valid for my directories as well. PS2: I am waiting all the red reps from the QBC guys that think that everybody else belong to the QBC.
Rep added ...... No Red..... But green You spoke your mind and theirs nothing wrong with that at all thats what these forums are here for..... Maybe others didnt get what i ment before.... Be yourself for whom you are and what your about We are all intitled to our opionions its when you join the popularity bandwagon JUST for the sake of tagging along that others get pissed... thx malcolm
The QBC's will green if anything, because they care nothing about what comes down the road in the future. They care only for what they can get out of it in the 'here and now'.
John's speaking from a submitter point of view... means he wont give preference to annual paid directories while submitting his sites! And i would support him there
Yeah but the difference is I submitted to your website and the submitter's point of view your reffereing has not. It's my directory , It's my call. BANZAI. Just tossing a 3 and half cents.
No... dont get it twisted I greened the man cause he has a set of cohoonas and spoke for himself and not for the bandwagon... My sites are here to stay till im dead! Period... as a matter of fact expect an additoinal 50 units to be arriving really soooon ........ thx malcolm
as you stated yourself: what is the complex for? Why do you feel it is a direct hit towards you? It's free expression on my views. To only be taken to heart, by those who choose to do so.
well, I think the issue is not about greed. If the price is reasonable, I am sure submitters don't mind wheter its one time or annual at all. But it's good if submitters know that annual fee includes "annual re-review" of the link. In a year, website may be changed a lot, so a fresh review may be needed for a more appropriate description of the site, for example. At least, that's what's in my mind
well when its posted right after what the fuk you think im going to think? that its posted to the fishes? I know exactly who and what im about... no im not takin anything persoanl as its not my style thank ya very much ...have a nice day thx malcolm
Check the fucking ego at the door you back dooring QBC fuk. You see it's relatively simplistic in design in the way forum posting goes. And the feeble minded QBC's seem unable to comprehend this, and here is why; 1. Two people posting at the same same 2. both expressing their views 3. one post goes out, and then the other, without seeing responses. 4. QBC get's hit with secondary post and takes it to heart See how it works? Simplistic in design. The sad part is, the pot is calling the kettle black, as you had posting that 'you see no harm in posting one's view, and freely', but then, you cry foul. Well I call hypocrisy, and a Spade is a Spade. Want to settle this, then lets take it to a bidding website of a trusted promoter. p0w!
well what can i say.... when ya use hidden secret innuendos as well as secrets squirrel messages signals will get crossed.... Your entitled to what you wish to believe and i mine you need to check your ego not me I could give a care less as i already know that we can continue to battle all day long but i need to get some productive work done on my sites as well as wash my ride thx malcolm,
Nah Jude. It's one-time fee, if you ain't talking about featured listings. Possibly you mean in the checkout page? It doesn't matter at all,that's for those who choose "featured" option.
