    Hey there

    two days ago i had a post in the service section for my squidoo service (you can check here the offer was almost the same) i have done research first to see it was allowed and i have seen a couple of the same sort of services so i thought it was cool.

    Now i got a infraction message

    and my threat was deleted

    Now i have two questions how is Squidoo a social bookmarking site and even if it is why is there a double standard?

    If you look here and here and here all these orffers are similair to mine and they are all still up and running.

    If it is against the rules then so be it, but why the double standard?

    Thank you

    Harry

    As your infractions say. Social Bookmarking services are banned in DP.You can report those threads to the mods if you want justice. :)

    You are not just promoting Squidoo pages but are offering

    Rating.
    At Squidoo the rating is real important it will help your lens move up the rankings and if you get in the top 100 you will not only see Google traffic but also heaps of Squidoo internal traffic and that is where this service stands out from all the other ones, i will ad 150+ five star ratings to your lens, that will make it fly true the rankings. i have a big network of accounts that i use to rate.

    Squidoo by itself is more of a blog type of service, but its lens rating tends towards social bookmarking.

    I have checked the 3 links you have pointed, they offer lens but they do not offer rating services. When has Squidoo rating services become something to sell? Have you even checked with Squidoo whether they allow Lens Rating Services for sale?
