sites/username do not show up in trade search

Post by ania10 »

Somebody was trying to find me on linkspun and they could not. They searched by username. I went to the trade search and searched by my username and several domains nothing shows up. If I go to the niches I can find my trades highlighted, but only the username of the person requested the trade shows up. Also only their URL shows up. If you click on the "+" sign next to it you can see my URL and username. What is the reason for that? How do people find me? I get requests on daily basis. How can I show my sites to users interested in trade?

I just found that the person that was trying to find me was blocked by me a couple of days ago. I guess that explains why they can not find me? But why I can not find my own sites, when I search by domain or my user name?

You don't see your own sites in search results. Why should you do? Others can see them...

Yes, I figured it out. Basically what happened is that somebody that I have previously blocked have contacted me outside of linkspun for trading. I asked them to join linkspun as this is the only place I trade links on. Then they asked me for my username as they could not find my sites on linkspun. They also provided their username and this is how I found that they were blocked earlier by me. Meanwhile I was trying to find my sites in the search with no success, wondering how people even find me, as I get requests on daily basis...I guess I have to stop working on the weekends :lol:
