Question for Raw Alex
Hey Alex,
A couple of days ago I tried to submit a site (to FindPics) and got an error message indicating the domain was banned. The next day I submitted under a different domain and had no problem, so I figured it was a fluke. Today I submitted again on yet a third domain, and again got the banned error. So...I've come to the reasonable conclusion that I'm doing something you don't like, but I am clueless as to what. (Either that, or my IP block has been banned). Should I provide details here, or would you prefer email? |

Took the hint.

Mishi, post up some URLs so I can have a look... it is good for everyone to see and learn iif there is an issue, or for me to enjoy some nice crow if there isn't.

Mishi, I looked, and from what I can see in my (very short) notes, it is because of:
On each of the sites, there is a link sequential to your gallery links that link to a video clip. That video clip opens in a new window, and that content is not on your domain / site. "Images, banners, return logos, and all other materials for the site must be hosted on the same domain as the site submitted. " and " No consoles, pop ups, timed exit windows, forced downloads, redirections of surfers, or changing / setting options on a users computer without permission." When I see one site like that, I decline it. When I see the same thing over a number of sites, I start banning the domains so that I don't have to spend time reviewing sites I am not going to list. It keeps the review time down to something reasonable. Alex |

I'll make a note not to submit sites to you that use the free video console. I'm beginning to seriously question whether it's doing me any good...I see a trend of fewer clicks through to the sponsor when I use it, but no corresponding increase in AEBN members, so I may be dropping it and looking for a better way to market them. Thanks for the response! |

I would have LESS of an issue if it opened in the current window, and I would have less issue with it if it was a click off a banner or ad, not appearing to be part of the "content" part of your site.
email me rawalex at hotmail with the domains that are coming up blacklist, and I will re-animate them. Alex |
