Rejected From Google News? Must Wait 60 Days Before Applying Again.

Google NewsThis is probably old but I've never heard it before... If your news web site is rejected from Google News, you cannot resubmit it for inclusion again for a 60-day period.

A Google News Help thread has Google's Stacie C. saying that in the thread. Stacie wrote:

There must have been a slight error on our end because you applied twice within that period, yet we still reviewed your site.

Apologies for any confusion, but please wait 60 days again for us to review your application.

So be careful when submitting your site so you cross off everything on your list, this way you don't have to wait a full two months before submitting again.
