REDIRECTIONS? CJB rip off! Warning.

[Kathy]

I hate cjb!

They delete your redirections without warning!

Then they link your name/ site to their money making
schemes!

Stay away from rip off cjb!!!!


Anybody know a good redirection service you can trust??

How about free domain forwarding?

Thanks and Love

Kathy

Don't know if they want you as a user if you have been kicked out of -------- . Don't think they kick people out just for fun.

Don't know what you did (maybe you didn't do anything wrong, sorry then), but as I run a URLforwarding myself, I can tell that alot of people use their free URL forwardings in SPAM and redirecting to sites not alloved by service TOS.

And why should you give them a warning when they have violated the rules their agreed to when getting the signed up for forwarding??

Well, just needed to write some anger off my back, as I just deleted another account for SPAMing.

Too keep within thread, free domainforwarding: http://www.mydomain.com

Dinn do nuttin'!

Nuttin' hon!

Thats the point!

They delete you if you dont have any hits!

( someone told me - but too late! )

So maybe you dont have traffic for a while - but your
gonna work on site later - or your waiting for it to get in engines.

Well guess what hon?

They then boot you - and steal all that traffic you
worked for!!!!!!!

They probably will lie to - oh you were spamming!

[Or someone that doesnt like you reports you to them -

and they believe it - cause there hot under the trigger

like you. ]

Cool down hon - be all right.

I WANT A GOOD SERVICE - that dont boot you for no hits.

Would you get a webhost that booted you for no hits?

Same nasty ol' thang!

Kisses Kath.

[KapTinKiRk]

How long has it been getting no hits? And why not just go there once a day to make sure it doesn't expire?

I don't know what the heck happened but I highly doubt that CJB didn't delete you with no reason. Maybe you did something against the TOS or MAYBE your account got hacked in an attempt to make the hacker a profit.

I've got at least 30 accounts at CJB and they've never gave me ANY problems in the [at least] 2 years I've been using them.

Don't jump to conclusions.

Let me get this straight.

They boot you cause you don't have any hits.
Then they steal all your traffic.

How do they steal your traffic if you don't have any traffic/hits???

[jw]

Why dont you just sign up again with the same info? If your site hasn't gotten any hits for 30 days, you can't blame them for deleting it - its just taking up a line in the database and keeping someone else from making good use of that URL.

[Tobbe]

JW is right,
apply for it again if you have made some work trying to get visitors.

This rule that you need hits to keep the domain active, is there to make -------- able to give away domains to people that uses the domains and not just keeps them so that noone else will register them (I think so anyway, thats why we have set up our rules).

Kathy:
if you want a good URL forwarding service that don't delete you if you don't get any hits, check my signature. But we will delete your account if you spam, or signs up for more than one account and not get more than 10 hits/month.

[Albert]

Try http://redir.as/ or http://c4.to/
IMO redir.as is more reliable.

[Christy]

I had a message board from -------- that had expired due to lack of posts. However, they do mention this in their help pages, only I found out too late.

[Toefur]

Drop me an email if ya want http://yourname.toefur.com

With no ads at all ;)

Heehee.

NEED SCRIPT / APP !

Hey, what we need is a script that will travel
to all our URL's and hit them. ( and redirections)

One click - to all your sites!

That we keep our sites!

Who can write this?

Kath kisses

[Albert]

The question is, what this script has to do. A simple idea is to subscribe to netwhistle and your site is visited every hour. But is this the traffic you need to keep a site alive?

here's an idea: make a site with actual content, that's actually worth looking at, that people actually want to go to, and you'll never have to worry about having it deleted.

[Albert]

Another *primitve* solution for Linux is:

#!/bin/sh
netscape http://domain.xy http://domain2.xy ...

If you use a random redirection service like redir.as everytime when the script is executed another domain should be visited.

If anyone has a sophisticated solution please let us know.

Of course, you are right. But there are situations, esp. when you test a FWP and don't want to spam, you have to choose this way.

Before I move my whole site to another FWP I would like to test his reliability and make a page with a "noindex-tag". If the page is not found with an searchengine there will be no or only a few visitors. So I have to do something to keep the testpage alive.

[dummy]

How to get your redirection with dhs.org? I went to their page, signud up, recieved my password and logged in. But couldn't find anything about their services... Who can help?
Can I use them if I don't use their Internet dial-up or whatever service(they seem to offering this)? Are they reliable?
Tnx.

[ccreighton]

If you have no steady traffic/hits the URL redirect provider is not generating any advert traffic and therefore no money. Which is what pays for the server, bandwidth, time, etc.

A click-thru script would not be a good idea either for the reason mentioned above. As another post stated develop a site with content and some traffic should follow.

In our TOS we leave this limit very vague. I've simply not had enough measurable traffic at this point to attempt to institute a soft hit limit. I can attest that the more valuable the name you choose the more likely I would want that redirect name to be active. Traffic=adverts=revenue.

An example is someone chooses a name such as /j8yui9 (for whatever reason) whereas another person may choose a name such as /phonecards. Obviously one is more valuable commodity than the other and should generate more traffic.
If the person holding the /phonecards name does little to promote their site and therefore has no traffic then the value of that particular name is a loss. At a given point I would be forced to request the account produce traffic.

[keith]

ummm... i don't think a subdirectory is a very valuable commodity. i don't care if it's /microsoft, it's basically worth as much as the person who registered it feels it's worth.

[ccreighton]

As the dictionary clearly states a commodity is something useful that can be turned to commercial or other advantage.

As a redirection provider it is my goal that my redirect names produce traffic and that the traffic produce revenue. Granted most likely will not.

The value of a top level domain or one of its subdirectory names is as valueable as the revenue it generates. Not what one perceives its value to be.

[keith]

uh, ok dude. all of a sudden you show up and become the all-knowing guru of internet redirection. yeesh.

[ccreighton]

Hmm... Maybe.

Or could be I have an opinion like anyone else. Seems like your the one with the problem not me. Is it that I've said something wrong or out of place?

[LeX]

Don't mind keith, ccreighton. He's always like that... :)

The day he says something that's not nasty...... ;)

[keith]

i'm not a nasty guy. fair, though sometimes highly opinionated, yet by no means stubborn.

[1st]

Now I hove to go back and cut it out of 19 html pages...

I never said you were a nasty guy. I only said that your way of expressing your thoughts is kinda nasty. :D

[Benjermin]

Theres http://www.yv6.com too. A free url redirection.

They offer free web space with 100MB but they put a banner a huge banner on your site.
