Directory

Why has my site been blotted?

[JudgeJeffries]

I noticed today that one of my paid inclusion sites had dissappeared from the Yahoo UK regional directory. As far as I know theres nothing on it thats untoward.
Anyone have any ideas or any suggestion to remedy it.

Have you checked your logs to see if they moved it to a new category? That's happened to me on several sites - in the USA version of the directory, though.

[JudgeJeffries]

Dont know how you do that but there are only two possible categories and its not in either.

You try searching for it in yahoo?

[JudgeJeffries]

Yes, and it does show up but its disappeared from the directory listings.

As a paying customer I have in the past complained vociferously about Yahoo failing to respond to my emails, reports and telephone calls, however I must now eat my words as within a couple of hours of leaving a telephone message and an email, the problem was resolved and the site reactivated followed by a very pleasant message explaining all on my answerphone. On this occasion I take my hat off to Yahoo!

Search just the directory it should show your site and the path that it is listed. My site dissappeared for a month and then reappeared.

[JudgeJeffries]

No, my site was erroniously de-activated.

That's funny cause this "error" has happened to me three times on 2 different sites in less than one year.

I believe there is a serious problem at Yahoo with the control of their directory, either that or there is an unknown method to have the competition removed.

Great news that you are back? Did they ever mention what happened?

[otnot]

I don't know why my site was reinstated? Now I'm afraid to ask for them to up-date my discription and title. FYI, if you want your site listed for free just go to Asia or Canada Yahoo and sign up.

Wow, Yahoo called you back? That's unheard of! That's one for the books! (hehe)
