Advertiser Listing Guidelines
The goal of the ITworld Network is to present to users and advertisers a comprehensive and relevant marketplace. The relevancy of your IndustryTarget listing is important to drive targeted customers to your business.

ITworld does not use "bots" or "spiders" to judge relevancy. Our human editors look through each listing to make sure that the information is a good match for the site.

In order to do so, our advertisers must adhere to strict Listing Relevancy Guidelines.

They are as follows:

IndustryTarget Categories
Ads should target the type of customers who might be surfing a particular subject area. For example, it stands to reason that a listing that appears within digital media content should target digital media professioanls. This could be a great place to promote graphic design programs, memory chips, gaming equipment, macintosh computers.

URLs
Clicking through to your site must not interfere with our browser's back button. Spawning of multiple pop-up windows upon click through is not permitted. Your site may generate a single pop-up console only, but it cannot entirely block the web site associated with the MarketPlace listing. Zacks will deny all listings that trigger excessive pop-ups.

Multiple Listings
Advertisers are not allowed to have the same Search Term for multiple URL’s. IndustryBrains is a fair marketplace and we do not want one advertiser holding a monopoly over a particular search term.

Titles and Descriptions
Titles and Descriptions must be relevant to the search term/category as well as the site they are referring to. Having effective titles and descriptions will increase your chances of driving targeted buyers to your site.

The ITworld Network will deny all listings that have text in ALL CAPS. In addition, URL's and Phone numbers within the listing information will also be denied.

Specific Web Sites
All Web Sites listed must be an active and working web site. All non-working websites will not be approved.

Competitive Offerings
In certain instances, sites in the ITworld Network may not accept competitive products and services. Decisions will be made at ITworld's sole discretion. Our human editors will inform you if your listing has been denied.

Adult Content Sites
ITworld does not allow Adult Content advertisements.

Search Engines and Directories
All Search engines and directories, pay for performance networks and Yellow pages must choose search terms that pertain to the nature of these sites, such as, “Search engine”, “Yellow Pages”, etc.

Gambling Sites
Sites that promote gambling will not be accepted in the ITworld Network.

Other Sites
Sites that promote email spamming will not be accepted in the ITworld Network.
