Why wasn't my post published?
Although our goal is to publish every single contribution we receive, that isn't always possible. Here are a few reasons why a post may be sidelined:
- The post was a blatant commercial advertisement.
- The post was off-topic -- it was unrelated to the subject matter of the digest.
- The post covered a topic that had been thoroughly discussed in past issues of the digest. Be sure to check the list archives if you are unsure if your post has been previously discussed.
- The post was clearly submitted to ask the list to visit your website or was a clear promotion of your company or business.
- The post was a direct response to an individual and not relevant to the entire list.
Of course we'd always like to hear from you if you feel your post was unfairly skipped. If you have any questions about submissions please contact the list moderator: digest-submit@zappos.com .

What do you mean when you say the list is "moderated"?
"Moderated" just means that list members send their posts to a moderator, who reviews each one and selects the best for inclusion in the finished issue. The main benefit of a moderated discussion list as opposed to an unmoderated forum is that flames and off-topic posts are nearly eliminated. This increases the quality of the list, which in turn makes it a more worthwhile resource.

Who is the moderator?
The Daily Shoe Digest is moderated by Adam Audette, publisher of the
LED Digest.

 |  | I wanted to thank you for the incredible customer service you've provided in recent weeks. When my pair of boots arrived in less than perfect condition, I had hoped to exchange them for a new pair. Unfortunately, you were out of stock. A wonderful representative offered tips on how to clean up the boots, offered to search other stores to see if they had the boots in stock, and even asked if I would like a refund before returning the boots! I decided to keep the boots for a few more days, as I was not interested in purchasing from another retailer. Luckily, Zappos received more boots in stock within the week. Another rep sent my order straight away and ensured that the new pair were in perfect condition. Best yet - they sent the new pair with overnight shipping! I can't thank you enough for your wonderful service! You’re the best. Robyn C. |  | ~ Robyn C., August 27 2009
