Reciprocal Linking & Verification
Viesearch rewards partners who help grow our curated index through reciprocal linking. This process is fully automated and requires no manual submission:
- Automated Discovery: Simply add a link to Viesearch on your approved URL. Our system will automatically detect incoming traffic (Referer) and grant your listing the Reciprocal status.
- Verification Criteria: To maintain "Verified" status, your site must contain either the Viesearch or viesearch.com string within its source code.
- Continuous Maintenance: Our background bot periodically validates these links. If a link is removed, the verified status is automatically revoked until the link is restored.
Rejection, Removal & Email Bounce Purging
We reserve the right to reject any submission or remove any previously approved listing that:
- Violates these guidelines or our terms of service
- Receives valid complaints from users
- Becomes inaccessible or compromised
- Changes content or purpose significantly after approval
- Triggers an Email Hard Bounce: To maintain active index health, if our outbound email systems encounter a permanent delivery failure (such as a hard bounce) to your email address, your account and all associated submissions, likes, comments, and votes will be automatically and permanently purged.
Sites that meet our guidelines will be reviewed by our editorial team. We reserve the right to reject any submission that does not meet our standards. If your submission is rejected, you may resubmit after addressing the issues that led to rejection.
Updates to Guidelines
These guidelines may be updated periodically. Significant changes will be announced to our community, and continued use of our services constitutes acceptance of any modifications.
