We have an additional opportunity to help new members quickly find out how to submit a site and how to do reviews.

On every page is the Community Review System text. The first 2 lines do not have links - it would be helpful, I think, to link "submit a site." to GoogleJunky's Submittal Guide , and to link "vote and review" to the "Review Guide".

Like this:

» Anyone can submit a site.
» Anyone can vote and review.

I think every place we can add a link to get people to read the existing documentation is helpful.

Can this be done? Thanks Smile

I would also like to see some explanatory text added to the top of the Review Centre page. We should try to make it very clear to new members that we want them to review sites, not just submit their own and go away. It can also help get people to add sig links without the mods having to point it out all the time.

Something like this:
Quote:

"The Hedir.com directory is based on community submittals and reviews of web sites. If you have submitted a site for review, we would appreciate it if you will take the time to review other people's sites. A minimum of 10 reviews is requested. Just visit a topic you are interested in and select sites in the Review forum for that topic, or visit the Review Centre to select sites that interest you. The Review Centre allows you to sort sites by date, submitter name, number of Yes or No votes, and other headings.

Reviewing other sites will help your own site get reviewed faster because people like to reciprocate when someone reviews their site. You can help your site get reviewed faster by doing more reviews and by adding a signature link to your profile that points to the review page of your own site.

Reviewing is easy. Please read this quick guide to learn how. We thank you for participating in the community, and look forward to getting to know you."


Do you think this is a good idea? If so, could we have this posted? Thanks.

Hi grrrl, thanks a lot! Yeah, that would surely be more descriptive. I could not wait for Josh to do, as he is engrossed in his family affairs. Therefore I had to implement it myself. If there is any problem, please let me know. Btw, Josh would be back by tomorrow.

Thanks
Anthony
