Recommend Links
- If you come across a great resource we should know about, use Mahalo Follow to let us know!
- In the toolbar, where it says "Recommend this link?," click on "Yes."
- A box will pop up, with the page's URL and title.
- If you do not see a box, please check our troubleshooting tips.
- If you're not logged into Mahalo, you'll be prompted to do so.
- If you think the title of the page you're recommending should be different, go ahead and change that information.
- Then tell us what Mahalo page the link should be on.
- Don't worry about whether or not we currently have the search result you're submitting a link for. Just put the name of the result you think this page should be added to.
- Next, let us know why you think the site is a great addition to Mahalo.
- Then "tag" the site with key words. Use any words or phrases that best describe the site.
- Since sites you recommend appear in your profile, these "tags" help you keep track of what pages you've recommended.
- Then press submit.
- Your page will now appear in the User submitted links section of that search result on Mahalo.
- If you recommended a link for a page we don't yet have, you have now created a page on Mahalo for that term. Your short page (aka stub) will be visible to other visitors, who can suggest their own links in turn.
- Make sure you're on the "Content" tab.
- Click on the "Exceptions" tab next to "Block pop-up windows."
- Add mahalo.com as a trusted site.
- Click "Allow."
- You should now be able to recommend links to Mahalo!
- Select "Pop-up Blocker."
- Then choose "Pop-up Blocker Settings..."
- Add mahalo.com as a trusted site.
- You should now be able to recommend links to Mahalo!
- If Mahalo has an exact match for your search, the Mahalo page will open in your main browser window.
- Related Mahalo pages will "follow along" in the sidebar.
- If Mahalo does not have a matching page, the main window will display our closest results, alongside the results from Google, Yahoo, Live Search, Ask.com, Wikipedia, del.icio.us, YouTube, and Flickr.
- Our closest Mahalo pages will still appear in the sidebar.
- Click on the random button and a Mahalo page, selected at random, will open in your browser.
- Or use the drop-down bar to select one of our top categories (including: Celebrity Gossip, Gadgets, Food, How Tos, and News).
- Mahalo Follow will then show you a random page from the category you selected.
