They are specified to enable the browser to load them faster when the Toplist is executed. Internet Explorer Users: You can find out what the current values for your banner are, as follows: * Bring up your Banner on your browser or website. * Right-click on the Banner. * Click on "Properties". * Towards the bottom of the "Properties" screen, you will see a field called "Dimensions". For example, 100 x 150. The first number is the width of your banner; the second number is the height of your banner. Take the first number and put it in the box named "Banner Width". Take the second number and put it in the box named "Banner Height".

Banner filenames end in gif or jpg, not html or htm. You should test the banner on your server first, to make sure that it works. If your site is hosted on one of those "free" hosting sites, please be advised that some of these sites do NOT allow you to read gif or jpg files outside of your website. You will need to check with your hosting company on this. Please be advised that any changes to your account may not appear until the Toplist performs it's next re-rank. Re-ranks occur every hour on the hour. "Re-ranks" are when the software updates all it's hit counts and any values that may have changed for the sites that are currently on the Toplist. How do I put the link for the Toplist onto my site? Note: the link information is given to you when you initially sign-up for the Toplist. If you did not obtain the link information at that time, simply follow these instructions to obtain the link information: (1). Go to the Errand Services Portal Toplist. (2). Click on the "Edit Account" link, located towards the top of the screen. (3). When the "Account Login" screen appears, enter the username and password that you originally signed-up with.

When the "Valid Link Syntax" screen appears, you can copy the link information and then "paste it" onto your website. Please note: you can put the link wherever you wish on your website. Keep in mind that the easier it is for your visitors to find the link, the quicker your site site will get hits on the Toplist. (5). Once you get the link on to your site, click on it once to make sure that it works ok. I can't find my website on the list. What happened? Did you put the correct link on your site for the Errand Services Portal Toplist? Did you code a description for your site on the Top list? If not, that's the reason why it does not show. The instructions on how to do this were given to you when you initially signed-up for membership. They are also available in the "FAQ". If the link IS on your website, and you have coded an adequate description on the Top list, please try the following: Bring up the Toplist on your browser. Hit the "REFRESH" or "RELOAD" button on your browser. It's possible that you have an old version of the list within your browsers buffers. If this does not work, please email the top list administrator for assistance. I forgot my PASSWORD. How do I get it? (1). Go to the Errand Services Portal Toplist. (2). Click on the "Edit Account" link, located towards the top of the screen. (3). When the "Account Login" screen appears, click on the "Forgot your password? Click here" link. (4). When the "Password Reminder" screen appears, enter the email address that you originally signed-up with and click on the "Remind Me" button. (5). The system will send the password information to that email address. What happened to the counts on the Toplist? They are all zero! The counts for each website on the list are automatically reset to zero on a monthly basis (usually on or about the 1st of each month). All the sites on the list appear disorganized or out-of-wack! Bring up the Toplist on your browser. After the site loads, hit the "REFRESH" or "RELOAD" button on your browser. It's possible that you have an old version of the list within your browsers buffers. The sequence of the sites within the list should now be corrected. If not, please email the list administrator and explain the problem as best you can. I signed-up for membership, but my site was rejected. This may happen for one or more of the following reasons: Failure to put the correct voting link code your site. Failure to code an adequate description for your site on the top list. Your site is currently under construction or not fully completed. The primary content or focus of your site, is NOT Errand or Concierge Service. You are not complying with our terms of service. My site on the Toplist had "x" number of hits. It is now at the bottom of the Toplist with zero hits. What happened? If the system detects that MORE THAN ONE HIT FROM THE SAME COMPUTER has occurred within a 24 hour period, we cannot guarantee that the system will retain these hit counts.Unfortunately, hits from other users may also be lost in the process. So it is important that you play fair and NOT vote for yourself more than once within the same 24 hour period. Reminder: The system will also reset all site hit counts on a monthly basis. On or about the 1st of each month. My question was not answered, now what? Please email our site administrator for assistance, at: webmaster@errandservicesportal.com |
