Approve Walk Through

Approve Walk Through

When you first open the Approve Tab, all ThemeSites without Theme Categories will become ready for your review.

Tip: Hold your mouse cursor over buttons and objects to receive helpful tool tips.

Your 3 goals, for each ThemeSite that you think is a potential Link Partner, are:
Goal #1) To assign a Theme Category to the ThemeSite.
Goal #2) To select an email address for the ThemeSite.
Goal #3) To mark a site that has a Form to fill out.

GOAL #1
How to add a new Theme Category to a ThemeSite:
Type the new Theme Category that you want to assign to the current ThemeSite, into the 'Select - Add Theme Category ' text box. The new Theme Category will automatically be saved when you click another object, or you can press enter on your keyboard.

How to assign a ThemeSite to an already existing Theme Category:
Once you have assigned a Theme Category to a ThemeSite you can assign it to another ThemeSite by simply selecting it in the drop-down box.

Or you can click the 'Theme ' tab and double click the Theme Category you want the current ThemeSite listed in.

GOAL #2:
Selecting an Email Address:
Use the two email list boxes on the right to select an email address that will receive email correspondence from you. Click on an email address to select it. It is now stored in the database as the address to send email to for this ThemeSite.

Tip: DO NOT click on more than one email address. If a webmaster receives more than one email, they could consider it Spam and probably will not be pleased with your request for a reciprocal link trade.

Host Email:
These email addresses are host emails or they belong to this web site. If email addresses are listed then you will probably be selecting them from here.
Other Email:
These are all other addresses. Every email address found in the web site has been extracted and stored in the database.

Marking a ThemeSite as NO EMAIL:

If the ThemeSite does NOT have an email address in the Email List Boxes, then the site is automatically marked as NO EMAIL. The ThemeSite will not be included in your email sorts.

If the ThemeSite does have an email address in the Email List Boxes but you don't want to send them an email, then you need to mark the site as NO EMAIL by clicking the 'Email' button at the top.

Now the ThemeSite will NOT be included in your email sorts.

Goal #3
Marking a Site that has a Form.

Many sites now have a form to fill out instead of using an E-mail Address.
Underneath the main browser screen is an area where you can add "Miscellaneous Comments" This area is not visible in the uploaded directory. What you can do is this. Enter in a code, for instance it could be A1 Now go through your other sites to Approve, entering the same code for other sites that may have a Form. After you have finished approving sites you Create and Upload the Directory. Now send your E-Mail requests. Now go to the Maintain Screen. Using the new SQL Easy Query option in Version 4 Create one for Misc Comments. You can now load that and enter in the A1 code. This will sort all the sites that have a Form to fill out. Navigate to the Form page on the site, now click the Form Filler button. IE will pop up and you can easily fill in the Form. Close IE and move onto the next site.

When you Approve sites again use a different code for sites that have a Form. A2, A3, A4 etc.

You can also use this Miscellaneous Comments area to include notes about a site that you may want to add to the Comments screen when you send E-Mail or Review later.

After assigning a Theme Category and Email Address to a ThemeSite:
Click the button to review the next ThemeSite and follow the same steps above.

Let's Review:

When you have decided that you want to include the loaded ThemeSite to your Link Directory you do 3 things:

1.) Add the ThemeSite to a Theme Category.

2.) Select an email address for the ThemeSite.

3) Mark a site that has a Form.

Then move on to the next ThemeSite.
