TLTH Seal of Approval

This program has gone through many different avenues in getting to be placed on this web site and in its creation. I wanted to make it simple, but set boundaries which are fair and complete. The criteria below will offer the guidelines for all sites using the logo and being included in the listing.

This program is to recognize web sites with a purpose. These are web sites which are making a difference and offering hope to many who need it through their well constructed web sites.

The TLTH Seal of Approval Program represents sites which are held to the same standards as Turmoil Leads to Hope. They are sites which have gained the approval of TLTH and are sites which the visitor can be sure will offer them a pleasant and safe Internet experience.

Sales sites, award sites, as well as other content sites are welcome. What ever help the site offers is good. Helping web designers and rewarding sites for their hard work is a great resource to those of us who work hard on our web sites. Graphics, poetry, and art sites are also welcomed.

If you have any questions, E-mail me at becky188@gmail.com.

Site Criteria

The criteria is simple for this program. No application is needed. The section below explains what one must do to place the logo on their site.

Listing and Logo Placement

TLTH seal Logo, bk
Link logo above using http://www.tlth.org/seal.htm

The process of getting your site listed, and the Logo placed on your site is really simple. Visitors visit this page; read the criteria; determine if their site meets the criteria; place their site information in the TLTH Seal Of Approval Certified Sites; save the logo to their hard drive; link it back to this page using this link, http://www.tlth.org/tlthsealofapproval.htm; I will receive notice that your site has been added; I will review it and will either approve it or not according to the requirements above; and then a special E-mail is sent to congratulate you personally for inclusion in the list and earning the TLTH Seal of Approval. If you are not included, I will explain why you were not included, and I will ask you to remove the logo from your site or not to place it there. Only sites which I approve are allowed to use the logo and be placed in the listing.

Note: The above logo was created by me for this program and must not be copied in any form for any other purpose. It must be uploaded to your hard drive and be linked to this page.

It is recommended that you place the seal on the main page of your site. Whatever link which is entered in the listing should have the seal located on that particular URL. You may enter more then one site, but only through sending me an E-mail with the URLs of all sites which you want to include. E-mail me at becky188@gmail.com. The listing is set up for spam control and will only allow one site to be added by any one particular person or computer.

Sites which have met the above criteria are the only ones allowed to have this logo on their web sites. Other's will be E-mailed and asked to remove it form their site.

If you believe your site meets all the criteria above, you may now include your site in the listing by clicking on the title below. If you have included your site in the listing, the seal should be on your web site.

TLTH Seal Of Approval Certified Sites

Sites included in the above listing are certified by me that they have met all the Criteria on this page. Any site can be removed and asked to remove the logo from their site at any time when it is clear they are not continuing to follow the criteria of this program.
