I
am a affiliate, Can I use your service? No, our
submission service is only available to site owners,
affiliate managers, or their marketing firms. There are few directories
that will accept submissions from affiliates. In most cases
if the submission is accepted your affiliate linking code
will be changed to main URL or the directories' own
affiliate code. In effect it would be a waste of your time
and money to use our services. Back to Top Do
you guarantee my program will be listed? No, we guarantee that your
program will be submitted to each directory in the proper
format. Programs are listed in each directory at the owner's
discretion. We work with you before any submissions are made
to ensure that your information is accurate. Back to Top How
many directories will my program be submitted to? This is dependant upon your
site content, type of affiliate program, type of affiliates
you accept and the number of directories you are already
listed with. Each directory uses a different criteria. For
an estimate of how many directories your program will be
submitted to see our current services page. The total number of
directories on our list actually changes from day to day as
we discover new or inactive directories. Back to
Top Which
directories do you submit to? Once we have completed your
submissions you will receive a detailed report with a list
of all directories. The report explains where we submitted
your program and, if not why. Back to Top How
long will the submissions take? Average time start to finish
will probably be 5 days. This includes a conservative
estimate of 3 days preparation time. Once we actually begin
your submissions we can usually complete all within 48 hours
dependant upon current volume. Remember, we are not
'blasting' your program to all the directories. There is no
need to rush this, your submission, when accepted, will
remain on a directory until your program has ended. We work
with you before submitting to make sure all information is
in order. Back to Top What
do I do if my listing is rejected? Each directory has a criteria
they use as to which programs they accept. To maximize the
number of the directories that will accept your listing;
here are the most avoidable reasons you may receive a
rejection. - Required reciprocal links
were not found on your site
- No reply to
validation email request
- Directory was denied
request to participate in your program
- If the above are
satisfied, contact us and we will attempt to
supply a explanation.
Back to
Top Do
I have to place the reciprocal links on my site? There are a few directories
that indicate they are required, some will not accept
submissions until they see the reciprocal link. Others
simply request that you extend them the courtesy. We will
give you most of the required graphics (others will be
emailed) and all requested graphics. In some cases it will
make a difference in their decision on accepting your
submissions, if they see their link, they will be more
likely to approve your listing.
In the end, it will be the
Webmaster's discretion as to which sites they choose
to list.
