myths dmoz

[doublep]

has anyone had any experience with non adult listings in DMOZ we're still sitting here waiting for a listing for a non adult product site to be listed which was subbed over 2 months ago... it's a joke really!

I've had experience of both adult and non adult submissions to Dmoz.

And IMO it takes longer to get listed in non-adult. But all of it really depends on Editor availability and work load.

Have you tried this doublep?

Generally speaking, I agree that Dmoz sucks. however, I would like to know GG ( since you were an editor ), how their search works. Do they list alphabetically, by date added or do they have any other algorithm. I mean, is there any way that you can bring your listing up in their search?

I have no idea - LOL - I just reviewed sites like Ido on LOR

Look at the entire free sites section of DMOZ. Any niche, any letter category is overflowing with spam.

Oddly enough, one of the reasons they threw me out was because I was either editing those type of listings or just deleting them completely. Of course, since these morons were my "compitition" they spun it that I was removing sites to benefit myself.



I usually don't pretend to have a big head, but I must say I was a damn fine editor when I was there. I had 4 or 5 categories when they booted me & I cleaned them up really well - I even went back & re-reviewed the existing listings when I got a new category.

I was the big name that they needed to whip in public to scare everyone else.

Hell, no one ever hears about how Emerald got thrown out the same day as me
(and not to pick on Emmy, cause she know I love her - LOL)

Thanks for the reply GG. And doublep, I waited for a couple of months, then posted at the forum mentioned above ( http://resource-zone.com ) and the site was listed in about 10 days.
