Submit a site to the Dealers DirectoryThe Dealers Directory is a web directory of Internet resources arranged by category. The Dealers Directory is updated and maintained by editors who evaluate all sites for inclusion. All submissions are subject to editor evaluation. We take great care over the quality of the Dealers Directory. We don't accept all sites submitted, so please don't take it personally should your site not be accepted. Our goal is to make the directory as useful as possible for our users, not to have the directory include all of the sites that could possibly be listed. To keep the Dealers Directory running smoothly and to assist us in exercising our editorial discretion, we have set up policies for submitting sites for our consideration. We may reject, delete, or edit submissions that violate these policies or that we otherwise believe, in our sole discretion, should not be included in the directory. We may also reject, delete, or block other sites that we believe to be associated with a user who has violated these policies. You should take a few moments to understand these policies and the steps to submit a site before you begin. Failure to understand and follow these instructions generally will result in the rejection of a submission. Dealers Directory Policies and Rules* Do not submit mirror sites. Mirror sites are sites that contain identical content, but have altogether different URLs. * Do not submit URLs that contain only the same or similar content as other sites you may have listed in the directory. Sites with overlapping and repetitive content are not helpful to users of the directory. Multiple submissions of the same or related sites may result in the exclusion and/or deletion of those and all affiliated sites. * Do not disguise your submission and submit the same URL more than once. * Do not submit any site with an address that redirects to another address. * Do not submit sites with illegal content. Examples of illegal material include child pornography; libel; material that infringes any intellectual property right; and material that specifically advocates, solicits or abets illegal activity (such as fraud or violence). * Do not submit sites "under construction." Wait until a site is complete before submitting it. Sites that are incomplete, contain "Under Construction" notices, or contain broken graphics or links aren't good candidates for the directory. * Do not submit sites consisting largely of affiliate links. * Submit adult quiz sites to the appropriate category under Adult. * Do a quick search to be sure that your site isn't already listed. * Submit your site to the single most relevant category. Sites submitted to inappropriate or unrelated categories may be rejected or removed. * Once you've selected the best category for your site, go directly to that category on dealers.co.uk and then click "suggest URL." Follow the instructions on the submission form carefully. * Descriptions of sites should describe the content of the site concisely and accurately. Computer auto-generated submissions will be immediately rejected. After your Website is SubmittedA Dealers Directory editor will review your submission to determine whether to include it in the directory. Depending on factors such as the volume of submissions to the particular category, it may take several weeks or more before your submission is reviewed. Please only submit a URL to the Dealers Directory once. Multiple submissions of the same or related sites may result in the exclusion and/or deletion of those and all affiliated sites. Updating your Website EntryIf a site has been accepted for inclusion in the directory but you are dissatisfied with how the site is described or titled, you may go to the category where it is listed, and fill out the "update URL" form. If you are dissatisfied with the category in which your site is listed, you may send an e-mail to an editor for the category explaining your disagreement. Be polite and civil -- threatening or abusive behavior will not be tolerated. If (and only if) you are dissatisfied with the editor's response, you may then use the "Feedback" link at the top of the page to appeal the editor's decision. Please remember that we must exercise our discretion and make numerous decisions as to how to make the Dealers Directory as useful as possible - no matter what decision we make, we may not always satisfy everyone. |
