IP Ban in Effect

In order to maintain a higher quality directory we review every business listing before they are published.

Because of Google and their “link ranking” methodology, we are inundated with SPAM business link submits, up to hundreds a day!

We are now actively blocking the IP addresses of people who try to submit junk links and information into our directory… and in just a few short days have blocked out the main (repeat) offenders.

Most of these are “SEO” companies trying to build links to manipulate Google and are not even caring what category they are submitting to, nor what text is going into the listings.

This type of submit will result in an IP BAN – so the next time they come to visit they will simply get a dead page…

If you are going to submit a listing PLEASE FOLLOW THE RULES as stated on the business submit form and you shouldn’t have any problem getting listed on our site.

We are currently working on […]
