AdSense "White List"

Morten, your site got listed under "annoying advertisers, e.g. bidding on unrelated keywords, targeting search sites with unrelated ads ...", so perhaps you've targeted unrelated sites? My danish is flawed, so I've asked for an explanation. Rest assured it wasn't a competitor who listed your domain.

That's what I got:
Q: You've added Mingler.dk, is it crap or just annoying you?
A: Just an annoying ad about a danish social network.

So, since a danish social network has nothing to do with an english search related site, and AdSense auto-targeting usually works fine, it seems you've targeted unrelated sites and you deserve the entry under 'annoying ads'.

Sebastian,

I don't think websitezone.com should be on this list. We are very relevant to the search context, in fact we are a specialized search engine. Please let me know why it has been placed here.

Thanks,
James
WebsiteZone.com

Morten, WRT annoying blogs I'm with you;) You're blocked on several search related sites, but no longer on the list.

James, you made it on the list because you or an affiliate promoted automated link exchanges, which are crap per definition, regardless how clever they are set up. Landing page: http://websitezone.com/directory/
Promote-Your-Website/Link-Exchange/
Link-Exchange-Services/

Sebastian, I guess you don't feel that any link exchange tool is valuable and that's fine... But you must know that WebsiteZone has over 100 product categories. We feel that it's unfair to be blacklisted because of this one category. As a specialized search engine we aim to provide an exhaustive list of all the tools related to website creation, promotion and management. We do not endorse any product or company found in our directory.

Since I think AdSense publishers do benefit from carrying our ads I would ask that you remove us from the list.

Thanks for your collaboration,
James

James, you made a valid point, and I agree. I've changed the entry to
http://websitezone.com/directory/
Promote-Your-Website/Link-Exchange/
so only the noob traps get blocked.
Fair enough?

Why is MyWebTrarfficShop.com listed here? We have always deivered a real product. For SE submissions and FFA submissions etc all clients get access to full comfirmable stats to where sites have been successfully submitted.

Our adwords are targeted as well and our traffic services are great.

I must say I find it really disturbing that anyone can post bad comments and get them posted without any further controlling being done.

Best wishes

You really ask why? Where have you been? SE/FFA submitters are out, useless crap, scams, and sooo 1995. Unscrupulous guys like you are responsible for tons of spam procuded by clueless noobs. Try to develop a useful product, or have the balls to rename your tool. "Web spammers heaven" or so would fit.

This is incorrect. You should not post BS without proof!

We take care of the comfirmation mails for our customers. Our customers receive absolutely NO spam in return!!

Correction: "Our customers receive absolutely NO spam emails in return for link spamming other spammers as well as useful Web sites". Stop complaining now, it's a mess to handle your comments coz you're hitting the publish button way too often. That's a mentality problem I guess.

Sebastian Foss is nothing more than a over-promising, under-delivering piece of shit.

Try asking for REFUNDS and see where YOU get!

Here's why Internet Marketing gets such a black eye.

Please be sure and get arrested soon, you fuck.
