4. Basic Listing
Basic Listings appear from page three onwards, after all other listing options.
This is free and you do not need to link back to us. These results will appear
behind all other links. These results are shown in random order. NB: You
can only list in one category per domain.You can't update your listing once added so dont use time-sensitive copy. |
If there are not sufficient Priority or Sponsored listings for a given
category the basic listings will appear on these pages. Once the Priority
and Sponsored listings places are all fully taken you can be added
to the waiting list.
If you have a Priority or Sponsored listing you will keep the same position
within your chosen region, when the regional searches are introduced.
If you have any questions about these options please contact
us.

only appear in the main results.

Please use Proper Title Text - - if you don't it will be rejected.

not capitalize the first letter of every word in the site description
and check your spelling. We'll correct a few mistakes, but too
many and it's rejected.

- We only send confirmation e-mails for Priority and Sponsored Listing,
for all others if you don't see you site listed within
a week, you can assume that your site has not been
accepted.

read
the
above criteria for acceptance.
- Your site must serve the UK and be Wedding related.
- We reserve the right to make editorial or link destination changes for any listing request, including paid options. If you are not happy with this, contact us BEFORE listing.
