**Payment of the non-refundable submission fee does not guarantee inclusion. It simply guarantees consideration of inclusion.**
In order to expedite the review of your submission, please read and follow the submission guidelines set forth below.
Choosing a Category
One reason many submissions are delayed is because they were submitted to the
wrong category. Start at the top category, and work your way down to the most
relevant category. Now, before you submit, take a look at other sites listed
in that category. Are they similar to yours? If not, you may be in the wrong
category. Also, check for more specific categories listed under that category.
Web Pages vs. Websites
One feature that separates Advance Ranking from other web directories is that Advance Ranking
welcomes individual web pages as well as websites. This concept may be new to
many, so let’s illustrate.
A Website:
http://www.internet-marketing-research.net/
This is a website dealing with Internet marketing. Most website submissions will refer to the index page.
A Web Page:
http://www.internet-marketing-research.net/choosing-a-domain.php
This is a web page which may be eligible for inclusion in a category dealing with domain names. The first clue indicating its status as a web page is that it is a deeplink. That is to say, it links to a page other than the home page.
A second clue is in that this page alone is relevant to domain names. The website it is attached to would not be eligible for listing in a category dealing with domain names.
Unique Content
In order for a submission to be eligible for listing, it must contain unique
content.
Please do not submit sites URLs which contain nothing more than affiliate links. Do not submit pages which redirect the user to another pages. Do not submit pages which have affiliate referrer ID’s attached to the URL.
Other sites not eligible for listing:
Title
Once you’ve determined your site is eligible for listing, find the most
relevant category and click on the Add URL link.
You will be asked to enter a title for your website or web page. You should list the title the way a user of your website would refer to it.
This is correct:
HotelsK
http://www.hotelsk.net/
Offers Hotel Reservation service in Rome , Venice , London , Florence, Milan.
This is incorrect:
Hotels Reservation
http://www.hotelsk.net/
Offers Hotel Reservation service in Rome , Venice , London , Florence, Milan.
The title must be the name of the company or the name of the site.
The Description
The description of your website or web page should be as long as possible without
exceeding the limit of 200 characters.
The description should objectively describe your website or web page without promotional language or superlatives.
Correct:
HotelsK
http://www.hotelsk.net/
Offers Hotel Reservation service in Rome , Venice , London , Florence, Milan.
Incorrect:
HotelsK
http://www.hotelsk.net/
The best and cheapest rates for hotels.
HotelsK
http://www.hotelsk.net/

NOTE: Please check your spelling and capitalization. Errors in spelling, or descriptions in ALL CAPS or all lowercase will delay the listing.
Keywords
In order to be found in a search of the directory, please consider all relevant
keywords a user might use to search for a site of your nature. This may include
singular or plural variations of words you used in the description.
