How to add your Sites and Content to VS-Dir FFA Topic Pages:
FFA listings are called Entries. Entries are listed on FFA pages called Topics or Catagories. A VS-Dir may offer free entries, paid entries, and FFA Ad spots on a variety of FFA topic pages.  Posting an Entry - a link and content, to a VS-Dir will vary slightly from directory to directory, depending on whether or not a specific topic is open to the public, open to members only, or restricted to Paid Entries only.

Path to adding an FFA Entry:
Sites with a VS-Dir FFA Module
Once on a TrEx site with a VS-Dir FFA page, look at the Top Menu. Go to Networks, then Site Lists. Site Lists is the main index page that displays all the Topics available in the FFA. Go to the Topic you would like to post an Entry to. Some venues will require you first log into your account to post an ffa entry. Find the hyper link that states: Want to put a site here? Click here to add a site to this topic. Click on the hyper link to add your Entry. This will bring up a form. Fill in the form and click the Submit this site icon.

Form Boxes:

Title:
This is the title of your website, service, etc. The text should fit in the space allowed in the form box.

Link:
Place the link to your website in this form box.

Description:
Character length for the description will vary for each FFA. Most of them will allow 500 or more characters, which gives you room to add relevant content for your entry. It is recommended you use keywords when describing your website or service.

Email or Member ID:
If the FFA topic is open to the Public, put a valid (working) email address in that form box. Your email will be verified. If it bounces, your ffa entry will not be approved and most likely your site (and email) will be banned in the system. These services do  not harvest or share email information. Collecting email is not the purpose of the VS-Dir FFA systems. The only person who ever sees your email is the FFA webmaster. You need a valid email that really exists in order to use this advertising service.

If the FFA Topic is for Members Only, you will note that as you are logged into your account, it will automatically insert your Member ID in this field.

Keywords:
You can add a list of relevant keywords in this section. Seperate each keyword with a comma (,).

Example: free traffic, traffic exchange, autosurf traffic exchange, manual traffic exchange

Human code :
Some FFA pages may require a capcha code to prevent Bots from spamming the FFA pages. Fill in the field with the code displayed on the form.

Link Back:
Some FFA pages may require a Link Back. The Link Back does NOT have to be the same link you are entering. In the case of an affiliate link, a link back on that specific site would be impossible. A Link Back can be on any website, webpage, forum, or blog that you own. You will place a link to that specific venue somewhere on a webpage you manage. You can place a link to the directory service - or even your own affiliate link on a website or blog.

Restrictions:
It is crucial that you know what the restrictions are at any VS-Dir site before you place an Entry. Most VS-Dir venues will have a tos, or even a seperate section just for the FFA explaining what is, or is not, acceptable. Submitting entries that are not acceptable, or spamming an FFA can lead to your site being banned within the system. And, since all VS-Dir venues network together, violations can be reported to the Realm-12 Network, which could result in your venue being banned at the entire Realm-12 Network.

Duration:
The duration of any FFA entry will vary from Topic to Topic, FFA site to FFA site. A duration can be in days or by number of entries per Topic Page. If a Topic is governed by days, the typical free entry may last 30 days or longer. FFA Topic pages can  range from 100 to 1,000 Entries.

Submitting your link and content
Once you have filled out the form, click on the Save icon. Depending on the VS-Dir, you may get an email that you have successfully posted an FFA entry. Your entry will be seen by the Webmaster of the VS-Dir who will then test the site. If the VS-Dir requires a Link Back, the webmaster will check for that as well. Your entry will then be approved or rejected. You will usually receive an email regarding the decision. When the entry expires, you will usually receive an email advising you that it has so you can repost.

Sort:
Sorting on an FFA Topic can be by Most Recent Post, or in some type of Alpha-numeric order. Sort is determined by each VS-Dir webmaster. Interspersed between Entries will be Paid Ads. Ads have different sort criteria and have durations that are independent from regular FFA Entries.

Last Two Entries (Paid Entry/Ad):
You will note that below the form boxes listed above you will see two additional form boxes. These are for Paid Entries or FFA Ads. One box is for your Member ID at the VS-Dir venue you purchased a Paid Entry or Ad. The other box is for the Code you purchased that allows you to post a Paid Entry or FFA Ad.

Paid Entries:
Paid Entries are just that. Some FFA Topic Pages will only accept Paid Entries. Most Paid Entries will require you join the service offering the VS-Dir and then purchase a Code. Once you have the Code, and are posting to a Paid Entry only Topic page, you will need to place your member id in one form box, your Code in the other form box in order for you entry to be accepted.

FFA Ads:
Ads have a different sort criteria from regular FFA entries as well as a seperate duration. They do not roll off the page like other FFA entries. They expire based on the length of the Ad purchased. Ads are inserted among the FFA Entries - usually on a random basis - and do not affect the Entry count. Example: if a FFA topic page allows 100 Entries, it may also display 10 or more Ads on the same page. So, you would actually see 110 listings on that page.

Paid Entries and FFA Ads are purchased in the Credit Shop of each VS-Dir service.
