Replied to both of these (all 3 I guess) with why they are showing not found, and how to fix them.

index.php is my homepage. The link is there and working. It's a wrapper (wrapper.html) for my toplist script and builds the page around the toplist. I don't know how to make it visible to your spider. Script is Aardvark Topsites Php

Yes your homepage is index.php but you accepted to link on .com/ (no index.php).

When the spider tries to spider the trade, it cannot see a link on the .com because the redirect stops it.

The way to fix it is to either trade with the proper link (the index.php) or remove the redirect from .com/ to .com/index.php (they are the same page, not sure why it redirects. Just delete the index.html if there is one and the index.php will show as the root page.

Know what Im saying?

Thanks. I didn't even know I still had an index.html. I usually delete them. Sorry for the oversight. :oops:

That was a 3 pointer for sure.

Can't believe I called it :)
