1) What types of website cannot be included in Links and Partners As the target audience of Travel and Holidays.co.uk is the family and small business user we cannot and will not accept any links to websites containing, but not limited to, illegal or unlawful content, explicit adult or pornographic content, or race-hate or political hate content. We also only require websites that have a main theme related to the travel, holiday, tourism, geographic and leisure industry. Please do not submit websites that are totally irrelevant to this. Repeated attempts by such sites will lead to that URL being banned from all group websites. If you are not sure if your website topic is suitable then contact our Links and Partners department first
2)How do I add a website to the Links and Partners area You can submit your website to the Links and Partners area by using the simple AddURL form found here. The main requirement, in addition for FAQ No. 1, is that you have already placed a return link on a suitable page on your website. Unrelated or detached directory pages, third party website pages or badly presented pages are not acceptable
4) Why are websites reviewed before listing We review all websites added to the Links and Partners area to ensure that they are safe and suitable for family and business users. Please see the types of website we do not include above before submitting your details and payment
5) How long does it take to add my website Normally, links are added within a few working days but sometimes it may take a little longer to review your website. We aim to include all suitable sites within 5 working days at the most. Please be patient
6) How long will my link be shown in Links and Partners We set no time limit for showing basic text listings and reserve the right to delete and remove any link at any time. Our intention is to keep the Links and Partners area maintained and in full working order until such time as we may consider it necessary to make changes. We have no immediate intention of removing the Links and Partners area at the moment as we consider it to be a highly valuable asset to our website, and our family and business users
8) I cannot find my link or my link is now missing If you cannot locate your link in the Links and Partners area then the initial listing may either be subject to delay or that the content of your website was found to be unsuitable for family or business users after review. If your link has previously appeared in Links and Partners and now cannot be found, it may have been removed following subsequent website review. Reasons can include, but are not limited to, unsuitable content or excessive site down-time. Please remember that all websites listed in Links and Partners are reviewed regularly
9) Do you participate in Three-Way Linking No. The prime purpose of the Links and Partners area is to provide added services and resources for our users - not S.E.O. If you wish Travel and Holidays.co.uk to link to your website then you must have a return link on the same website back to us
10) Where do I place my return link to Travel and Holidays.co.uk The return link must be placed on a links or resources page no more than three levels down from your home page. This page must be linked to your home page or main website navigation area
11 ) Where will my basic listing be shown We place all links in the Links and Partners area on pages that relate to a single country. This may be either the country that you are based in or the main country that you service. This makes it much easier for users to find your website listing. Research has clearly shown that users look to a country or area then look for online services for that country
12) Why must I give a valid email address when adding my website We need a valid email address so we can send confirmation when your link has been added. We may also need more information about your website or we may need to notify you if we have changed the location of your link. If you do not provide a valid email address then we will not add your link to our website. We do not use your email address for any other purpose. Please see our Privacy Statement here
