How can I add my website to Koolar directory?

First, make sure your website is not listed in our directory by using our search found at the top of any Koolar page. Next, submit your website/business profile by clicking Submit Site located on top of every Koolar pages.

 
In what time will my website be listed in the directory?

If your site completely meets our requirements, it will appear in the directory within 1-2 weeks (it is a usual period for Basic Listing, but it can take longer in case our directory is overloaded)
However, if you have filled in your reciprocal link to us in your site submission, your site will be listed within 3 working days.

 
I want to modify my listing, how can I do it?

To modify your website/business profile and settings, please login to the members page here.

 
Can I add my site to several categories at once?

At this moment, basic listing doesnt allow submission of your site to more than 1 category.

 
What is Link exchange(reciprocal linking) and its value?

Reciprocal linking is the process where two related websites agree to exchange text and/or graphical links with each other by placing links on their websites to the other site.

For example, an antique mall might want to swap links with a furniture repair service. The two websites are separate, but related. Visitors on one site would naturally be interested in the other site.

Another example: An online dating site might want to swap links with a gift/flower shop. Again, the two websites are separate, but related. Visitors on one site would naturally be interested in the other site.

Trading links with other websites is a valuable method of promoting your website, and getting more traffic. Many of the top search engines rank websites according to how many links there are that point to that site.

Benefits of reciprocal linking are:

  • Increase the value of your own website
  • Give your website visitors a valuable resource
  • Give your website visitors a reason to return to your website
  • Gain qualified traffic from other related sites
  • Creates valuable partnerships with other website owners

    How to Exchange Links?

    1. Koolar members browse the web directory on the main page for suitable company websites. Once appropriate websites have been found, the user click on the "Request link partner" hyperlink. Users will be asked to sign in to their account.

    2. Once signed in, Koolar members will be auto-directed to the Link Request section.
        Over here, members can see 3 types of link information:

  • Website information that you wish to exchange link with.
  • Sample html code (the link which you wish to partner with) which you can copy-and-paste into your webpage.
  • The URL location where you place the link information(or paste the sample html code) in your website.


  •    When you have update your website with the link information and fill in the location of the link,
       click on the "Request link exchange" button

    3. Koolar Link Manager will auto-check that the link exists and notify the other party (link recipients).

    Koolar members can login to the Link Manager to check the status of their links.

     
    Should I swap links with any website, or only specific websites?

    We suggest you swap links with any website that:

  • Offers unique content
  • Is well organized, easy to navigate, easy to read
  • Is related to your own website
  • Does not employ tactics to "trick" the search engines


  • Ask the question, "will my own website visitors benefit from this link?" If the answer is yes, then you may want to consider swapping links with that site.

     
    How can I make use of the Showroom feature?

    Add your products under the Showroom tab of the member page. Once added, your product will be shown on the directory listing.
