To keep our Blog Directory running smoothly and to assist us in exercising our editorial discretion, we have set up policies for submitting sites for our consideration. We may reject, delete, or edit submissions that violate these policies or that we otherwise believe, in our sole discretion, should not be included in the directory. We may also reject, delete, or block other sites that we believe to be associated with a user who has violated these policies.

You should take a few moments to understand these policies and the steps to submit a site before you begin. Failure to understand and follow these instructions generally will result in the rejection of a submission.

1. Step One

   Determine whether a site is appropriate for submission.

   • Do not submit non-blogging sites. These include commercial websites and other general websites.
   • Do not submit mirror sites. Mirror sites are sites that contain identical content, but have altogether different URLs.
   • Do not submit URLs that contain only the same or similar content as other sites you may have listed in the directory. Sites with overlapping and repetitive content are not helpful to users of the directory. Multiple submissions of the same or related sites may result in the exclusion and/or deletion of those and all affiliated sites.
   • We have a policy against the inclusion of sites with illegal content.
   • Do not submit sites "under construction." Wait until a site is complete before submitting it.
    
2. Step Two

   Do a quick search in the directory to be sure your site isn't already listed.

3. Step Three

   Identify the best category for your site. We have an enormous array of subjects to choose from. You should submit a site to the most relevant category. Sites submitted to inappropriate or unrelated categories may be rejected or removed.

4. Step Four

   Once you've selected the best category for your site, go directly to that category and then click "Add a Blog" Follow the instructions on the submission form carefully. Descriptions of sites should describe the content of the site concisely and accurately.
