Dmoz - No response
-
Hi,
I sent our website URL to http://www.dmoz.org/,
I followed all the rules, i even checked some competitors that are already listed in this directory project, to make sure i define good category for our website.
i did that long time ago and still i didn't get response and i don't see my website listed.
I also don't see any option to contact them.
Any advice?
Our website: www.artizone.comThank you

You can always apply to become an editor yourself. That way, you can add your link yourself.

SEOMoz has a list of directories you could try here: http://www.seomoz.org/directories
Good luck!

Welcome to the club!
I have been waiting for over a year to have my website (PR5) listed with DMOZ and with no success as yet. The Editors work at their own pace and will list your site if a) there is an Editor for your submitted category b) if they feel like it.
You just have to wait - word of warning though. If you re-submit your site, your original submission will be deleted and you will go to the bottom of the queue again. My advice is to forget about it and move on with your other SEO activities.

How can I get my wesbite on Dmoz if it isn't accepting? Am I S.O.L.?
Each of the categories I would certainly fall under aren't accepting sites at this time because of it isn't showing the icon you need next to it to submit a website. I have been checking this for months, but it isn't changing. Is there another way in or am I just out of luck here? See step 3: http://www.dmoz.org/docs/en/add.html

Google disavow DMOZ/ODP spam sites?
Hello Looking into links to my one of my sites (over 10 years old) I've found that along with some bad spammy links, around 80% of my inbound links are from directories that are exact copies of ODP. Should I be concerned about / asking for removal / disavowing these links? Normally I would be trying to get rid of low quality links like this, but since they are ODP clones I'm not sure it's worth the effort. The sites openly state that their data is from ODP (Open Directory Project), but does this mean Google ignores them? I could spend my whole life swatting these links. Thoughts? Edit: I'm hoping for suggestions that specifically reference the ODP clone site situation. I did not create these links, I guess I should have made that more clear.

How long before a new dmoz Will get picked up?
Hi all, I have a site which I've been trying to get into dmoz. It's taken approx 2 years and I went back recently to submit it and it was there. I hadn't submitted for a few months so can't be sure when it went in. Is there a way to get google to spider that category again so it gets picked up quicker? The site is www.nutritionmission.co.uk and wasnt showing up in my search explorer results yesterday. Thanks for your time Ian.

How do directories that pull listings from DMOZ work?
I've listed an example below. I see these all the time, where a directory pulls it's listings from DMOZ. So you would naturally assume that if you're in DMOZ, you would get these links, but that's not the case. This particular link was picked up by OSE so I'm wondering what the quality of these links really are and if they're legit? Also, if you go to the main subdomain the page just says "Buy shirts". What is the deal with these types of so-called "directories"? http://www.searches.org/go/search/Shopping/Home_and_Garden/Furniture/ Another example: http://www.westcairn.com/furniture.htm
