Some Examples
The following are examples of reviews or pages that are not permitted
on ZooZu:
- Lists of words: The inclusions of a list of words as a means
to attract viewers via ZooZu search engines to a review or page.
Example: “oil reproductions, art recreations, gallery,
art gallery, impressionist, impressionism, oil paintings,
reproduction, painting, recreation, copy, quality, reproductions,
recreations, realistic, copies, paintings, old maters, replica,
poster, prints, video….”
The inclusion of words that are used to promote the seller’s
other ZooZu listings.
Example: “Please view my ZooZu listings for Beanie
Babies, vintage Barbie’s, Rolex watches and Channel
scarves.”
- Hidden HTML text: Members may include hidden text (for example
“white on white”) or source tags (meta or header
tags). However, such text may not include any keywords or be
used as a means of promoting a page. Keywords “hidden”
within the title, description or through other means are not
allowed.
Why does ZooZu have this Policy?
Keyword spamming results in a poor-finding experience for members,
since keyword spamming returns reviews and pages in which the
member may have no interest.
