Failure to comply with a search engine's page-inclusion criteria usually triggers a rejection. Problems with a page's Meta tags is a common reason for rejection. For example, some search engines apply strict restrictions to the character count in a submitted page's Title tag and Description and Keywords Meta tags, and if the limit is exceeded, the page might be rejected. Use the Meta Tag Generator in Traffic Blazer to double-check your Meta tag length.
Another potential reason for a rejected submission is failure to disclose adult content. If a search engine that doesn't accept adult-oriented content discovers banned material on a submitted page, it will reject the submission.
