How do I add my url to dmoz

[fandie]

Hi

I am trying to add my url to www.dmoz.com

I have clicked on the suggets URL but i see option of how to add website?

Am I missing something here?

you have to be more specific in the category on which your domain relates...

i.e. if you have a soccer site, you couldnt simply submit to "soccer", youd have to delve deeper into specifics and the "suggest Url" link will appear...

Dont hold your breath though, DMOZ is becoming more random than Great Domains...

And IMHO, a directory that should be left with all the other antiquities of the net, in a cupboard gathering dust... Broken links central...

Actually, on a separate note, if you download that domain bash software, you can crawl DMOZ and find all sorts of expired (and listed) domains... you heard it here

Thanks for that Badger all sorted

domain bash software?

yeah, errrrrr, one of the chicks here was offering a free download of her version....

Let me think..... ManicGirl... See her for details.. Cant say if shes still offering it or not?

I have the software, its great.



I'll have to look at the license to see if it is freely distributable.

unfortunately i think its very unlikely that a brand new site selling ringtones is gonna get listed in dmoz

 

[fandie]

It is new yes granted but it also has information and is not just a template that has been added

Doesnt dmoz prefer sited that have more content and not just pictures?

I am new to this

Well dmoz is very slow in getting sites listed. Add to that the latest rumors about conspiracy and editors favouring some sites over the others, I simply stopped trying to get my sites listed there.

Patience is a virtue when it comes to getting a Dmoz listing. The editors at Dmoz review every page submitted to their directory, and they are picky about what they include.

Unless its their own porn sites or a child porn site. Seems they love them over there. I am not sure I can post the URL to it but this is being talked about on another "webmaster" forum.
