I know that many of you submitted your blog for a long time already but until now, your blog is not yet listed or added on the list of blogs according to the chosen category. This was actually caused by the huge number of spam blogs added submitted into the directory.

You need to know that blogs submitted are checked personally by our editors. Spam blogs are deleted and only those blogs owned and managed by Filipino bloggers are the ones included into the directory.

Here’s how we checked the blog.

1. We will check the blog if it already has the “Pinoy Blogger” badge. The “Pinoy Blogger” badge shown in your blog is the result of inserting this code into your blog’s theme:

   <a title="A Pinoy Blogger" href="http://www.selaplana.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.pinoyblogger.com/images1/pblogger.gif" border="0" alt="A Pinoy Blogger" width="80" height="15" /></a>

   This code will generate a link like this:

   

   So, once we don’t find the “Pinoy Blogger” badge or the image shown above, we automatically delete the submitted blog.

2. After finding the “Pinoy Blogger” badge, we then check the blog for clues and hints whether the blog is spammy or not. Those blogs that looks spammy will be deleted from the list of submitted blogs.
3. The next step is to find clues and hints whether the blog is owned or managed by Filipinos.

So, only those blogs owned by Filipinos will be added to the directory.
