Now this really hurts my feelings! I submitted a blog to Review Me today. I got this message back. We're sorry but the website you've submitted has been declined. The reasons are as follows The site is a suspected fake The site doesn't have enough link popularity The site doesn't generate enough traffic. Now the last two I can live with, but the first one just really hurt my feelings! Fake indeed! Has anyone else gotten this reason in a rejection from a review site?

nope and good thing im not really into blogging. im so sorry about what happened to the site you have submitted your blog with thebeaddoodler. it was suspected fake at the same time they have stolen your blog which you have written and thought of wholeheartedly. sigh. i guess this has also taught you a lesson to really look at the site and check its links popularity. hope you'll be okay. take care!

I'm sorry about what happen to you. It must be very hard to accept the rejection because you work hard for it. The one thing i hate is when your site can be labeled as fake. Anyways, cheer up. there's still tomorrow, hope is still there, just keep on trying. Maybe success will be yours someday. Cheers.

Now that's one problem I've neer had. What really burns me is that for every suspected fake that really isn't, a million fakes get reviewed undetected. I don't blame you for being bugged. That would bug me too.

That sounds terrible! Although I have to admit, I have never heard of Review Me, let alone a "review site". But then, I don't blog often - once in a great while on MySpace, but that's about it. Regardless, the idea that something you worked on and submitted was rejected as a suspected fake is a very hurtful thing. I don't know what "link popularity" is, but if it is pretty much what it sounds like, then they're just stupid because a link cannot become popular if not permitted to be shared, right? Do they permit second requests with explanations from them on what made them think it was a fake? If so, then go for it - make them earn their keep!! LOL Otherwise, better luck next time!!!
