  22. I have checked on my links, Sir, and all is intact and directly linking to the “sponsors”

    It would help if you can be more specific.

    Thanks!

  24. @Refuerzo, @iskolares, @Lloydi thank you for your entries and good luck.

    @Keddie, please check the required links on your post and fill it up with appropriate content before submitting your entry. Thanks.

  27. @Rommel, I didn’t approve your new entry because it doesn’t use the proper URL/web address of the required link. Please correct it and resubmit your entry. Thanks

  28. Just to remind you, that the entry
    webmasterzone.in/2010/02/13/webthesurfi-rugs-webdesign/ should not be a valid one ‘coz it’s against the rules since the domain contains word “web” which is part of the keyphrase. CMIIW

    Um.. My site does not have the word “web” in it.. Webmaster is actually a recognized word.
    So no.. It doesn’t… Maybe its the root word but theres a difference you know.

    I’m sorry that I’ve worked hard and now you want to drop me.
