Blogexplosion.com: More like implosion.

Blogexplosion.com: More like implosion.

After three submission attempts to blogexplosion.com (2 for http://www.generationgamerz.com and 1 for my writing space here) I still do not have a valid listing with them.

Their reason?
They do not accept blogs that are primarily advertising or that advertise a business opportunity.

Generationgamerz com

With over 100 articles pertaining to Video game news, reviews and opinions I don't see how it is 'primarily advertising.' Sure there are ads on the site, there are ads on almost every site these days. The site also uses Google Adsense as well as 2 other programs. So that's a total of six or seven possible ads on the main page. With ten articles or more on the main page alone how is that primarily advertising?

My Xombytes:
This blog was also denied into their program for the very same reason. Again this site also uses adsense, and only Google Adsense. So how is this blog primarily advertising? How is this blog advertising a business opportunity?

It's neither. Users of Xomba know this, people reading this blog know this.

So why am I posting all of this?

It's simple. It's a warning. No, that is too strong of a word. It is a suggestion. A suggestion that you do not waste your time with a site that is either completely disinterested with potential clients, or too lazy to do any actual work themselves. The website promises great gains in traffic and other potential things. But they cannot be bothered to actually look into any specific website to see what the actual situation is. So my suggestion is to not even waste your time with them because they would not give you the time of day if your writing space, like mine, exists here.
