Here is an example of all the rejection mails I've got from the mainstream directories :
"Dear Webmaster,
We apologize! Your site "Free erotic photography" is rejected to list in AddUrlAddSite.com
Most likely due to one of the following reasons:
Duplicate domain name in same category
Submitted site in unrelated category
Submitted category is too general
Broken link
Adult content <------- WTF?!
Please re-submit your site for another review."
When I asked via mail why he submits adult sites to mainstream directories that don't even ACCEPT adult sites I haven't got any real answer. He just keep telling me he will look over the submissions. Good luck.
I have bought similiar SEO services before to mainstream sites during the years. And I am fully aware off that the site may be rejected by some of the directories. But you just can't sell an "adult SEO package" and then submit to directories that clearly states they wont accept adult sites.
My warning bells should have rang when I was about to send the payment and saw the name in the email was indian. I have nothing against indians. It just that indians have ripped me off before
ps : I may have been very rude in my mails to the "SEO expert" , but I'm just so tired of this kind of people. He deserves every rude word from me ;)
