I have around 50 or so declined listings on my overture account (they are listed under Editorial Status > Declined Listings), is there a way to resubmit them all at once? Do I have to resubmit one by one?

Thanks

Dunno, but once they are declined it can be frustrating to try w/o success to get them accepted.

One site submitted the onlylistings they could buy becaue the regional searches just didn't generate enough searches. OV turned them down 4-5 times. A few mots later they were submitted under another account and they went right through with no problem whatsover. Go figure.

That is why I wanted to resubmit all of them again, I still cannot understand why they turned them down. I guess the editor was having a bad day. I am almost positive if I resubmit, they'll be accepted.

Thanks

i actually submitted one "order" of 32 new keywords today. instanly submitted. then for another client i did 12. instantly declined.

i emailed my contact there and hopefully he can straighten it out.

i use the sumbit by file. that way i have a copy for my own use as well for resubmitting purposes.

werty,

I do you do the "sumbit by file"? I looked in Overture's site, but cannot find it.
Can you submit a spreadsheet?

Thanks

actually i meant submit by file.

there should be a link that says "upload listings"

they have a spreadsheet that you can fill out and submit.

i am not sure if this has anything to do what level client you are. i believe am listed as a "diamond" level client which has something to do with how much you spend per month on overture.

"diamond" level

I have a basic account, I think that is why I don't have that option offered to me. Oh well, it's all about money.......always

you may want to call your contact at overture(assuming you have one) and ask them about the uploading. It may only be on the "diamond" level clients overture pages, but it may be a service that they offer to all clients, just not allow all clients upload from the web.

You do have to be diamond level (or platinum I think) for the spreadsheet, unless they are running a special deal at the time. To my knowledge, they are not at the moment.

I have found that the best way to resubmit mass terms otherwise is to open two browser sessions and log both into your Overture account. Have one on the declined terms page and the other on the submission page then cut, toggle(ALT+TAB) and paste. It's crude but it is faster than retyping everything.

being able to be logged into an account twice is one of the few things i like about overture.

that and having multiple accounts open in different windows saves me so much time.
