Thread: What policy does DMOZ have?

I would like raise this question to help other people to get their website listed in DMOZ! If you have something to say if you have any advices to share with us just do this in this post!

Precious discussion about DMOZ

Code:

http://www.webcosmoforums.com/dmoz-odp/692-how-does-dmoz-work.html

And here's the detailed guidelines on submitting your site to DMOZ

Code:

http://www.dmoz.org/help/submit.html

I can only say I am frustrated with my first submission, now I dont bother submitting there.

To add to that, no one submits to DMOZ, they are horrible with accepting submissions....blogspot is the only way ot get in for sure...

hmm there is a guy in DP he says give him 400$ he will get you listed in DMOZ lol !!!

between DMOZ is horrible for sure..

And now, it's kind of useless thing..

well,listed in Dmoz is not useless,Google uses the Dmoz directory like their own directory,if your site is listed in Dmoz it will most definately get a high pr and respectible position in Google.
however,listing in Dmoz is really time consuming,and the most important rule to follow while getting your site listed in Dmoz is not subbmiting multiple pages of your site in Dmoz.

Well, I personally able to rank better without getting listed on DMoz. So I can care less

DMOZ is owned by AOL. Google endorses it.

DMOZ was for sale as I heard. Didn't hear anything afterwards.

Doesn't Google drops DMOZ endorsing already? or is it just on their webmaster guidelines?
