Thread: need listing in DMOz

Dear all !

we want to add our site in dmoz. we tried many times. but not succeed. Can some one Guide us..

I am an editor.
So
1. You have already broken our guidelines by suggesting the site more than once. Did you read those guidelines which said that BEFORE or at all before you clicked the button that said you had read them when you suggested the site? Problem is that several submissions of the same URL can be treated as SPAM and what do we all do with spam? Delete it and block it from being sent again. So.......
2. If you are asking if there is any other way to get listed, paying someone for example, the answer is NO. Any editor found taking bribes is banned for life and so is the site that they listed, so if I were you I would not try it.
3. IF your site has not been banned as spam, then IF it is guideline compliant, WHEN a volunteer editor, working in their spare time and following their HOBBY, chooses to work on that section and chooses to use the suggestions pool, then (and that was IF it was guideline compliant) it will get listed. When, well as I said it has to wait and that can be from a few days to a few YEARS. There is NO other way. But don't suggest it again.

Read their guidelines again & again and assess yourself are you following them?

DMOZ can be tricky to get a listing from, so patience is key here.

Does the category you are trying to list in have an editor? Look at the bottom of the page to see if an editor's name is given, or if there is an option to volunteer to become one. If there is no editor, it will go to another editor further up the chain who may be responsible for thousands of submissions. If that's the case you could wait forever.

There are lots of term and condition you will have to meet for DMOZ and only quality website goes to DMOZ, if you have a quality one than you can go for it.

Follow their guidelines correctly. Main thing is selecting appropriate category.

Dmoz guideline Follow and you can submit link.

You have to follow DMOZ's guidelines to a tee and then you have to wait anywhere from six to nine months. You submit over and over you will never get listed.

Not six tonine months it can take from a few days to a few YEARS before a site gets reviewed and multiple submissions is often just treated as spam and zapped and blocked.

Submitted my site last month still waiting for getting indexed

Every one want to listed in DMOZ I am also looking for tips to get listed in dmoz.
