    They are asking you if you are a from India? I assume that is what you are trying to say? My guess would be because unfortunately given the HUGE population of Indian users to this forum, (no doubt due to Shawns article in India a while back), many people have been burned.

    Its not an indictment of one particular ethnic group. Its just an unfortunate stereotype that has resulted from again, the HUGE influx of Indian webmasters to this forum. There's a boat load of bad people in ever group.

    The best I can suggest to set yourself apart from the rest is to be patient and build up your reputation over time. Eventually people learn to trust the individual, not the stereotype.

    Good luck!

    I dont think thats the case. Most of the submission service is Indian anyway.

    People get turned off by a number of other factors. First, from your siggy, I guess your price is highly unrealistic. Obviously you must be doing some automated submission and people might be expecting manual work. In any case, you must price yourself realistically, ultra cheap would mean cheating / poor quality.

    Another reason is that you have 0 itrader rating. So it is hard to get the first few assignments. Once you have few +ve ratings, it would be easy.

    Finally, there is nothing like "indian directory submission". You need not put your nationality in places where it is not going to make any difference.

    Maybe its not that your from India, but that your spelling is horrible and unprofessional. Even dollars is spelled wrong in your signature.

    Take more time to respond to people with proper spelling. Also $2 is cheap for 5000 submissons, and that may scare people away...

    Where you are from "India-China-Russia-USA-UK is irrelevant to most....


    Look at your spelling...:rolleyes:

    You expect people to trust you will find the correct category for them
    or offer them several variations in description and title tags with that
    type of English grammar? Do you think anyone would want you screwing
    up their site because of your lack of grammar & general knowledge in
    directory submissions or the directory industry?

    Look at your pricing... :eek:

    $2 bucks and you expect people to take you seriously?

    Conclusion...

    find another profession....

    1. It's not about your race or national origin it's about all of the things already mentioned.

    2. People are not quick to trust here because there are so many scammers and cheats here. With only 31 posts, you haven't built up a reputation that could help folks determine you know what you are doing, are reputable and do a better job in your work than with your posts.

    LOL thank you for someone pointing that out in such a blunt way. just made my night.

    If I wanted to get a job in india that involved any sort of written language, but butchered the language as much as that, I'd expect people to walk away too..

    Maybe it's time to hire someone to write your copy for you so it looks a bit more profession if you feel that submitting to whatever is really your calling here..

    Other than the what everyone already mentioned - Try adding your site as a sig, usually works good as a face for your company, it also makes it more professional.

    mmmm Doooooonuttttttts ....

    I don't trust submission services 99% of the time anyway .... I have seen too many grunts strutting around with 2001 model blog, directory, link farm and ffa submitters like they're todays gift to SEO. To top it off they even copy paste the "submit your link to 3000 000 - 10 000 000 sites" in their sales pitch. What makes it even worse is the fact that suckers line up to buy the submissions.

    The fact that you are an Indian has nothing to do with the fact that nobody would risk $2 on someone who fails at spelling. You might make typos on your submissions?

    BTW- "people" + "peopel" --maybe you can spell but just tired or lazy when you started this thread?

    I am an Indian!! I got cheated by Indians in this forum!! So I need to think twice before doing business with them, not every Indian is a cheat but because of the numbers we look like the pirates of webmasters world. If only chinese learn english we will be saved of the blushes.Okay coming to the point I only do business with them because of the love I have for our beloved countrymen, Else people have plenty of option to go around If you are honest and have skill no matter which race,ethinicity or country you come from you are bound to get trusted by people.Business builds on trust and trust builds on honesty

    I am an Indian, I am in this industry from 2003 and dp from 2006, it takes time to build and work upon a reputation.

    Also is it a joke that you are offering 5000 dir submission for 2$? such stupid and downmarket rates will give you no business and other people who are doing the submission may surely wanna get you out of business for those rates.

    I known Indians who have being running this submission from 2005 and are probably the no.1 submission service companies, they have their offices running in various countries and have customers from all across the world. So there is no question about not trusting any Indian.

    Lastly remember, Rome was not built in a day. :)
