Hand picked
Each site in
Splut has been reviewed by a member of our team of
reviewers. Each member has at least 3 years internet
experience, and will ensure each site approved is in
accordance with Splut's paradigm.
What are
we looking for ?
Splut! is looking for sites that it feels benefits the UK
web community as a whole. Ease of use/navigation and
download times are a consideration. Whenever we approve a
site, it must meet these criteria:
Is
the site complete?
Many times people will submit a website with a
big "under construction" logo on it.
They don't get it. If you think your site is
going to be good enough, spend the time on
finishing it before asking for it to be included
in Splut! Even if you promise that your site will
be completed by a particular date. Not
complete ? Not coming in.
Does
it work ?
Some sites are database driven and have errors
popping up whenever you try to do anything on
them. Some just have bad links, pointing to
nowhere. Some have links to images on the authors
hard drive (very common). Not working
? Not coming in.
Is
the site not too saucy ?
Splut! is a family site, and we try to make all
the content "U" rated. The only
exception is the Lifestyle > Interests >
Adult category where we tend to have looser
restrictions. Yet we will still will not accept
sites that contain hard core pornography or other
illegal material, or links to such sites. Not
decent ? Not coming in.
Is
it for a UK audience ?
Splut! is squarely aimed at the UK web community,
and we only accept sites that would be of
interest to the majority of UK people. There's no
point submitting a shopping site that only ships
inside the USA for example. If you ship to the
UK, we may allow it. Not for the UK ?
Not coming in.
Which Category ?
When suggesting a site, Splut! requires that you choose a
category that you think is right for your site. Splut!
reserves the right to move your site from the category
you suggested it for, to one that Splut! considers more
appropriate. As they say, the judges decision is final !
What did you say
about my site ?
Splut! hand reviews each site, and in most cases does not
take text from your site as the description. If we think
your site has promise, but has some poor graphics, we'll
say so. Splut! visitors value our candid reviewing of
site. If you have a problem with a review, or you've
addressed the issues in our review, let us know and we'll
take another look.
What/where ?
Splut! gives you the ability to associate a postcode with
your site. This is so that we can supply a map to our
visitor, showing where you're located. You don't need to
fill this in if you do not wish to be located.
