3- Directory Submissions Guidelines.

High quality submission sets the directory apart from most other directories making it useable and helpful to our users, respected and trusted by search engines. and thus appealing to webmasters and marketers. It also allows our editors to review submissions faster.

Please try and adhere the following guidelines.
  • Select the most appropriate category for your listing. Although the editor will usually correct that, this usually leads to a delay reviewing you listing. Please understand that your web site will gain the most by being listed in the most suitable category.
  • Refrain from using any HTML or Style tags with your listing, they are not allowed and will be stripped off.
  • Write in complete sentences using proper grammar, capitalization, punctuation and correct spelling.
  • Use short and descriptive title
  • Do not use ALLCAPS in your title and description (unless title requires it).
  • try andd utilize most or all of the 255 characters allocated for the description. A short, well-thought-out description can make a great impact on the reader.
  • Use a working and monitored email address


4- Processing Submissions.

After a successful submission, the submission is queued for review. One of our editors will review your submission usually within 48 hours (at rare time it may take up to a week depending on many factors including volume of submissions, technical problems, incomplete submissions, etc).
The editor will make sure that your submission meets the listing guidelines and if there is a problem with it, the editor will correct it. If the problem requires that the editor get in touch with the submitter (through the email address used for submission), the editor will contact you and work out any issues until they are corrected.


5- Submission has been Rejected.

If the submitted website clearly falls into one or more of the categories of website that we will not list as specified above. You will be notified with a (Submission Rejected) email. The rejection message will clearly inform you of the reasons the site was rejected, if you believe that the editor was a mistaken in rejecting your submission (rarely happens), you can try to explain why the decision is incorrect and why the site should be listed.
If the final decision (made by the editor) is that your website in "unlistable", and the submission was a paid submission, then you will be given a chance to submit another website instead of the rejected website.

6- Submission has been Accepted.

If the submission is successful, and it is approved by an editor. The website will be listed and a notification email will be sent out to the submitter's email address used during submission. The submitter will have the chance to edit the listing anytime he/she likes, but keep in mind that all edits do require editorial approval.
