thank you!

Under entertainment, we need party or party favors. Or there could be a category for Party supplies and it could go there - as well as wedding favors, etc.

I'd like to see a children's category - which could also have children's parties under it as well as children's decor, etc.

Internet Services (ex: web design, business cards, logo's and all that would go in that catag)

Ice Hockey .... please under sports ...

We have all these, they are just spread out.

Yes, just noticed. Thanks

Nice one!

How about, Hobbies as a main category? Collectables as a sub/cat
There would be 100’s of other sub categories relating to hobbies?

Chris.

Under Clothing

New Age/ metaphysical under shopping would suit me.....

Under shopping a category for Quilts perhaps?
Thanks,

I was wondering if under family, something could be added for moms. My site has advice, recipes - a bunch of different things of interest to moms. Also, should family not be a top category? If I saw Home and Garden as the main category, I might be tempted to think it was only about home and garden decorating or improvement. Just a suggestion to think about.

I was wondering if you could create a heading under window cleaning.

Thanks

Would like to see category for Furniture and a subcategory of log furniture. Thanks

How about candles as a search word, please?

Also, how exactly do I submit my website?

Thanks!

Under Travel...
Tours and Vacation Packages

Thanks

Weddings

Great idea and yet another useful service

I would suggest a Weight Loss, or General Health & Beauty products categories. As our web site "Gateway to Health & Wealth" is really hard to fit in one category only.

under sports figure skating

Under Shopping /jewellery(excuse the spelling) could we have
HANDMADE SILVER AND BEADED JEWELLERY

Thanks

What Categories would you choose for Consulting- educational advice , research, hands-on

The "Jewelry Shopping" category has been oddly split up:
Diamonds (0)

Ruby Jewelry (0)

******* (0)

I don't get having "Ruby Jewelry" when there are more popular/normal categories like:
Diamond Jewelry
Diamonds, Loose
Fine Jewelry
Bridal & Wedding Jewelry
*******
Fashion & Costume Jewelry
I would then be able to properly list my sites under the appropriate categories.
AND....a paid listing would place me where, at the top of the "Jewelry Shopping" page or would I have to pay for banner/advetorial in each sub-category? I have 4 stores that each fit multiple sub's...

Category Suggestions:
1. Under "Shopping" >"Online Shopping" (for my virtual Mall)
2. Under "Travel" > a. "Honeymoons", b. "Spa", c. "Luxury", d. "All-Inclusive", e. "Vacation", f. "Golf", g. "Incentive"
3. I second the mention of "Wedding" as a new category, which should have sub-categories (it's a long list I can submit later via email if you'd like) as the wedding/bridal market is so huge and vibrant, it will be a popular draw...
4. new category: "Communications", to include "Media Management", "Media Production", "Public Relations", and "Composition/Writing Services" as sub-categories.
5. new category: "Services" where you can add sub's to organize "Legal", "Home Builders", etc.
6. category edit/correction: under "Travel", "Guides & Info" should be changed to > "Tours & Guide Services"

These are what you usually see, and will make it easier for not only visitors to find what they are looking for, but will result in greater SE caching.

(Humbly Submitted)

They all will be added within 72 hours, our work load is very high right now, we are updating the script.

Thank you for your understanding.

Would it be possible to add 'VodaSearch' as a 'QuickLInk' on the forum,
or at least somewhere where we can find it easily?

Just visit >>> www.vodasearch.com

When you have a moment, could you bring me up to par by trying to answer my confusing question posted above? (copied here)
"AND....a paid listing would place me where, at the top of the "Jewelry Shopping" page or would I have to pay for banner/advetorial in each sub-category? I have 4 stores that each fit multiple sub's..."

I am confused (apparently) on how to 'list' my stores & services. For example, would placing a "premier" listing for ChoiceJeweler.com in not only the Category:Jewelry, but also under sub-categories "Diamond Jewelry," "Fine Jewelry," and "*******" constitute 4 x $47 charges, or only 1 paid listing?
And what are the restrictions on text copy? (100, 200, 300, 500 max etc.)

Hi,Can we have self catering Holidays under Travel?
Thank you!

What is "self=catering"? Do you mean something like "self-service" or a type of service available as "Independent Travel"?

If so, that is already the industry standard, and need not be singularized, don't you think??

(within the travel industry, English is the universal, and there are classes set up by IATAN to properly segment both types of service and providers)

Self catering in the English language usually means holidays where you cook for yourselves..............so it would be a good sub cat of holidays.

I understand Dave....I was merely pointing out the fact there is a "universiality" to both travel terms and classes and referenced categories of internet search and "directories".....(you don't see it as a standard pull-up at Google, for instance). And it's not a category listed by Conde Nast or Magellan if you aren't familiar with IATAN.

That is why I limit my own suggestions to industry standards commonly seen and expected (especially for search, yes?).

If you google "self catering holidays" you will only get about 4,110,000

Most people searching on the internet do not know anything about industry standards, they just type in what they are looking for.......

and self catering holidays are very popular.....

Self catering is British and Euro speak (very common and widely used). This term is not used in the USA that much, if at all.

Helloo,
Which catorgory could you use that people in the USA would compare to the word and meaning of self catering then? Do they Just use the term Rental,Vacation Rental etc??...I would like to attract more visitors from USA!
Thanks, Sordfish>>>

"Suites, Family Suites, Kitchenette, Homestyle, Condo/Condominium, Residence Rentals, Vacation Units, Fully Appointed Rentals...."
These are some of the top listings for US clients.

You may wish to surf sites like AAA (American Automobile Club - they have a traveller program), AARP, Good Sam Club (even though they are camping, they offer alternatives), Holiday Inn (they offer rooms as well as "kitchenettes" and other properties), and even AmeriSuites to see the verbiage they promote.

You may also try to find online Travel Directories and wholesaler/consolidator sites that you may list your site with, as you cover a "niche" that is most likely under-represented.....
(Amex Travel, Travel Impressions, Uniglobe, Globus, etc.)

Hi Brad,

Brad,
Could you add 'Sculpture' to your category on VodaSearch?

Maybe a category for Family>Parenting>Baby and Toddlers?

That will be nice.

Aloha, I have written an e-guide for Hawaii visitors. It is for the budget minded and the adventor minder visitors that want to see Oahu, Hawaii on their own. My eguide is called Hawaii On Your Own - An Insider's Guide. They also receive two free bonus eguides: Golfing in Paradise and Bed & Breakfast Rentals on Oahu. I will be doing an eguide for Maui very soon.

Maybe a category for Home & garden > Family > Babycare?

Thank you.

Hi everyone,
Under Real Estate could we add Home Inspectors
or Home Inspection service.

Thanks,

Many thanks, fisher40

Dear BV team,

I would like to create reciprocal link to bv and my website: www.careforallages.com This is an assisted living facility - for those adults who need some level of assistance with daily living, but are not in need of a nursing home. Would you consider - Community Living, or Assisted Living as a subcategory under Health Care?

Thank you,
cc

How long does it take to get word if the category that you suggest is added? I summitted a category on January 5,2007, Still no word? Just wonderin.

pls add a Investment - HYIP category. thks

Under Home and Garden: Outdoor Furniture

Thanks

Question - in the sign up form it says put certain code on the page that you are submitting for option C - this code displays "create website" - i have my Vodahost affiliate link there already - "create website" doesn't say the right message to me - is this exact code still a requirement as well as my existing link?

Under Hobbies - Ham Radio, Flying, Genealogy
Under Science and Technology - Quantum Physics
Under Society - Philosophy
Under News and Media - Streaming and Podcasting
Under Computers - Linux, Windows, Mac

Hi, under gardening have Organic gardens, Companion planting
thanks
Kes
www.ourwealthtisheath.com

I would not really know what type to ask for since we are involved with many types of things at our website.

The main category I could suggest is Services:

Since we provide a painting service for yacht and boat owners.

But at the same time the category could be Boats and Yachts:

Maybe it would best be if someone were to view the website and all we are working on offering. Then they could get a better understanding of my request(s)

If anyone should go to the website, please turn speakers down.... there is a slide video on the first page with music.

Hi *****

Under business Can you have Floor Covering Retailer/Contractor

Mike

One more Brad

Can I register for more than one category for the same website. My website: http://www.raajayogam.com relates to more than one category - of course all of them are NOT listed in the classification list.

I made the same post where-else. Forums are mixing my mind. Well. Can I list my site: http://www.raajayogam.com under more than one category - providing I provide corresponding number of links in my website.

The option is not available in the Application Form.

May we only suggest English categories? There is a lot of Afrikaans on my site, websterprop.net

Games -> Role Playing -> Fantasy


This is where my site belongs ( www.portofshadow.com ), but I placed it under Games as that was the most appropriate when I submitted the URL.

under entertainment/wedding could we have a section for fireworks

thanks

Please add the "dental health" sub-category to the Health and Medical category. Also please add the sub-category - "fashion jewelry" to the shopping > jewelry & gemstones category. I am unable to submit my sites because there are no appropriate categories for them.

Thanks
