My DMOZ submission
 

About ten days ago I submitted my http://www.uglyworm.com/ to the DMOZ directory to the category http://dmoz.org/Adult/Computers/Inte...nk_Sites/Free/ and a few days after I have received an e-mail from that category editor:

At Ugly Worm I list pay sites, AVS sites, free sites and also galleries (this probably leads editor to his verdict). But the number of galleries I list is far behind the number of free sites and I feel UW to be link list, not a tgp and besides that:

1/ there are many sites in that category which list also galleries
2/ if he thinks "he lists galleries", it is a TGP, why would not TGP category editor do the same? He lists free sites, it is a link list, lets shift it there. Where is logic in his verdict?

I sent him an e-mail with such an similar explanation but he responded (cutted):

I have read that category guidelines - http://dmoz.org/Adult/Computers/Inte...Free/desc.html - four times, but I could not find any single I am not complying with. Am I missing something?

Really don't want to be a cry baby, but I am working at Ugly Worm every single day, from programming and design to reviews and link trades and I am trying to make it as good as possible, this is why not to be listed at DMOZ is too bitter pill for me to swallow.

So I would like to ask you if there is still some way to get listed there? What should I do?

PS: I am not complaing about that editor (and I prefer to keep him anonymous), all I am looking for is help to get listed at DMOZ.

I really don't know what you're arguing abouth - your site is listed here where you have submitted it to:

http://dmoz.org/Adult/Computers/Inte...nk_Sites/Free/ ;)

probably you missed something ;)

Holy shit! A dmoz cat with an editor that actually does something.

In ten days, no less.

Will wonders never cease!

Now I am feeling a bit stupid |banghead| and I hope that my site will stay there :)

Thank you, "editor" |yourock and thank you SEO_Konsul for great news |bananna|

I been waiting a little over a year and no email or nothing and I subbed a LL to the right category...

I've been submitting to dmoz over 10 years, tons of pages listed, and never once did I get an email from an editor. I probably would think it was some sort of joke if I got an email from dmoz.

In 1999 I got a nice email from an editor telling me I had bunged the affiliate url in an FPA. I thought that was very nice.

Have never gotten another.

The fact that any modern editor sent a letter to an adult webmaster is really quite interesting.

Anybody else seen or heard of similar letters recently?

don't worry, for this the board is here. it is a place to help others |thumb
