How long till my free listing is added to NZ Directory?

My free listing was declined, why?
The most common reason a listing is declined by our system, is that the website URL does not match the provided reciprocal link URL.
An example of this is if your website address entered was http://www.yoursite.co.nz and the provided reciprocal URL http://yoursite.co.nz/links.html without the www infront. Our system see's this as 2 different domain extensions and does not process the request, therefore both URL's should either include a www. or not. By default this is already entered within our provided submission form.

Free listings and basic business listings never expire from our directory and search services. All business listing options have a 1 year display period, with the choice to renew at the end of each yearly period or be downgraded to a lifetime basic business listing for free.
