Reviewers Guide

Reviewers Guide:

Our emphasis is on content. We believe that a site should be informative to be of some value to its visitors. We have classified such sites into the following categories:

   * Offering product information
   * Offering service information
   * Offering current industry news, research information, tutorials and reference material

Review for such sites can be done in two ways:

   * General Review on informative value of the site
   * Technical Review

General Review:

   * Check that the site belongs to one of the above categories.
   * Check that the site has enough informative content.
   * Check that the intended visitors of the site will benefit by visiting the site.

Technical Review: Please check the following points in a technical review,

   * Overall structure of the site
   * Logo of the site
   * Headers and Footers
   * Navigational structure
   * Color schemes used
   * Pop ups on site pages
   * URL formats
   * w3c XHTML/HTML validation

We encourage you to do both types of reviews for a site. It will help the webmaster of the site in planning future developments. Also, do not forget to vote yes/no for the site as the listing of the site depends on the number of yes/no votes the site gets along with other factors.

As an extra option to reviewing you can use the Hedir Review Center to organize the types of sites you would like to review.
