WHAT CATEGORY OF WEBSITE OR LISTING HAVE I GOT?

Which Directory Group or Category should it appear in?

Consider carefully when deciding which Directory Group and Category Type you add your business or enterprise listing too. For best results and more enquiries add it to the most suitable and relevant section.

PLEASE NOTE: If your listing is for a DIRECTORY or for a collective of links, it must be listed correctly under DIRECTORY SERVICES. We do not allow directories to be listed in the general listing area. This area is reserved for single website and dedicated enterprise listings. We do not think it is helpful or useful when someone searches for example… a MOTEL or a HAIR STYLIST … and all they get on the first page is a long list of directories? If someone has a MOTEL or a HAIR STYLIST business to list, then this space is reserved for their individual enterprise promotion and internet marketing.

How do we decide if a website is a directory?

If a website listing is promoting more than one website, it is likely we would class it as a collective or directory. It would need to be listed in the directory category. If we note or it is brought to our attention that an existing listing is a collective or directory we will move it to the directories category.

If you have a collective or directory website or business to promote… WELCOME … please add it to Directory Services.

HOW LONG MUST I WAIT FOR MY LISTING TO SHOW?

All new Directory listings give you the option to Preview.. You can then check that all your details are correct and as you would like them to appear and then Publish, immediately. (RECOMMENDED) You will receive confirmation verifying the validity of your email address? (or is it in your spam junk mail?) If all of the requirements are adhered to and your listing is still not appearing after 72 hours, please NOTIFY US HERE. 

All listings are manually added by the listing owners or their authorised agents or webmasters. It is YOUR OWN Directory Listing and you have full access to self edit and manage YOUR OWN details or ask your webmaster or technical assistant to help you. 

As part of our anti-spam policy, we DO NOT ADD any listings or manage the listing contact information.
We do not import Database listings from other sources. The Combo Directory Network is your most dependable and safe repository of information to services and supplies. Managed and monitored by the Listing submitters and the Network Members and Moderators.

All requests for help or assistance we will respond to and will be followed up.

WHERE HAS IT GONE?

I AM UNABLE TO FIND MY LISTING WHERE I EXPECTED TO SEE IT?

Have you have added your listing to the wrong category?
If a listing is deemed to be in a wrong category it will be moved by a directory moderator to a more appropriate category

Did you list under a PARENT CATEGORY>>>?
Any listing under a parent category heading SAMPLE OF PARENT>>>  will be moved.
keep looking and expect to find it under a suitable category.

Do a search for your listing by Name, Zip or Postal code and it may appear in an unexpected category. In this case you will need to logon to your Country Directory and edit your Listing. Follow the instructions online.

I ADDED MY LISTING AND IT HAS NOT APPEARED?

Did you submit a listing that is in breach of our Standards or Requirements?

Check the DO NOT ALLOW list and acquaint yourself with our Terms and Requirements.
Important points to note if your listing cannot be found … are the following.

a) Did your listing fall into the… DO NOT ALLOW … group?
b) Did it redirect or link to a page we DO NOT ALLOW?
c) Did your listing not have a current valid and verifiable email address?

I HAVE HAD A LISTING FOR A LONG TIME

Now I am unable to find it in the Combo Directory Network?

We deem it very important to maintain an active and current email contact address on your listing. It allows your prospective enquirers to email you direct from a listing without the need to launch your website if it has one.

Some possibilities are…

a) Did your email become inactive or out of date?
If at any time it comes to our attention or we get a notification stating a listing email is not responding to your contact form, does not exist, is inactive, unavailable, etc, then the listing will be removed. (but you can re-list)

b) Was your listing legitimate?

c) Was it later found/reported to be in breach of our terms and removed.

c) Did it redirect to a disallowed website?

Remember to always keep your best or primary email address up to date.
We recommend you re-submit your listing if need be, if all terms and conditions are met with an active verifiable email address.

Your assistance in helping maintain the accuracy and integrity of the COMBO DIRECTORY NETWORK is appreciated by every listing visitor and the Combo Directory Network team.

DO YOU KNOW?

Some listings are removed because….

The mailbox is full and or blocked. All our notifications go to your spam folder? put us in your white list of safe contacts now… if nobody can contact the listing owner and neither can we, it is best if we delete it? We want every listing and this directory to be useful, alive and active so
