Changing the description for my website.

Like others I have tried to get a description changed on my website that really works for me. Since relevance is determined by keywords in the title and description I have been trying to get my keywords included in my description, without success. My catagory is: Shopping:Home and Garden: Swimming Pools and Spas: chemicals. A good description would be: A non-chlorine algae control product using copper and silver ionization to prevent algae in swimming pools, koi ponds, hot tubs, or spas. Any help or suggestions on how I can get my description changed would be appreciated. Thank you.

I submitted my site and the editor said "After logging in, I noticed you do not have a submission pending review. This might be due to multiple submissions or submissions in the wrong category." I submitted it again, and asked her if it was pending review. I never got a email back so I sent another a few days later, and there still wasn't a response. Anyone have any suggestions? I really want to get my site listed in DMOZ. I submitted it again if anyone wants to help me out and check on the status, and maybe keep me updated that would be really appreciated. I didn't realize when I started that it was a task in itself getting listed here. I'm just hopeing the outcom…

I'm confused on an issue. It seems to me that there's something very unfavorable going on in the ODP and maybe someone here can help me out. Before I start, please be aware that I have read the submission policy - especially pertaining to this: "Affiliate links are links to a commercial site that usually, but not always, include an affiliate or referral ID in the URL, such as AffiliateID=19555&ProductID=508. The person whose ID is in the link gets a commission from anyone who buys from the site after following that link. A site that lists affiliate links in addition to other content (such as a fan site for a singer that has interviews and photos and links to buy th…

Salutations! I am the webmaster of a Pagan website. I submitted my site to the following category well over a year ago: Society: Religion and Spirituality: Esoteric and Occult I checked back a few months later and found that it has not been added there or anywhere else on ODP. I made a note to check the other links in this category. Of the 7 links here, one was not functioning and another goes to an off-topic spam site. I can only assume that the editors for this category have not been around in a while. I tried to contact the editors of this category numerous times with no response. I recently submitted my site once more (about a month ago) and I am once again a…

I understand editors volunteer their time to do the directory.. and i also read that senior editors can help with other categories as well.. but nobody.. not one per…

Hello, I would like to turn this domain, http://www. © .com/, into a open directory project like dmoz or in association with. I have alot of friends that are artists, poets and writers, including myself and the problem of copyright infringement is huge. My vision is similar to the "Library of Congress" except on the net and free. What do you see as potential pitfalls in making this happen? I also hold http://www. ® .com/ and would like to do the same with trademarks. Thank you for any suggestions.

We submitted our site "glasses2you.co.uk" almost 2 months ago and still we are not listed. Can anyone give me a reason for this? It seems ridiculous that you cannot speak to someone or at least be able to check progress. Do editors give feedback for any sites not listed? reaaly appreciate any feedback! Thanks

Hi all, I carefully read the submission guidelines, but I still have some questions... We have a German website www.partyboerse.net. Our website provides information for two (?) categories : first it provides local party-dates (for south-germany), second we provide a (of course non-regional) software on our website so it would be nice to be listed in a software categorie. In this case would a submission to two categories be ok and accepted or is it against your rules? Next problem: We decided to make our software international and of course made a english-speaking homepage: http://english.partyboerse.net Would it be ok to submit this url to a intern…

What we find irritating is that between DMOZ and Google if they choose not to list you then Google page rank will be affected. Page rank determines whether Google takes more of your URL's from your sitemap. Google uses DMOZ. So we have a site with 700,000 URLs+ we have a page rank of 2, we have hundreds of "one way backlinks to us" and a high hit rate, but we still have not been listed DMOZ and Google chooses to take its sweet time to crawl our URLs, after 4 years Google has crawled exactly 1/10th of the URLs in our sitemap. We are getting 40,000 hits a day and no one in Europe knows we exist. The power of DMOZ and Google to "do a site in" is equal to the things it ca…

I posted a request for my site to be listed somewhere around Dec 2003 and have patiently been waiting to try and get my site listed http://resource-zone.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=12265&page=1&pp=15 WHilst I appreciate that people are giving up their own time, will review in any order etc etc etc, surely at some time these editors MUST look at those that have been outstanding the longest and say "Well he's been waiting patiently, lets get his checked and out of the way for him". My site has been requested for a section that has very few entries and very few added since I submitted. PLEASE CAN SOMEBODY REVIEW MY SUBMITTAL! It isn't a huge site and would…

I have been trying for two years to get listed in dmoz, I submit my site according to the terms and conditions, I have never been notified of rejection or acceptance, I however do search for my site and nothing comes up. There are those large retailers who get listed instantly, but for some reason small business such as mine, seem to take a back seat to others. I know the editors maybe over worked but two years and nothing? Being a Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business, I need as much exposure as I can get, this is my livelihood. My traffic to my site is below average at best, but I would appreciate some type of communique from the powers to be, please don't think…

Человеческим фактором всегда будет проблема, Проблема - всегда то же самое In an effort to help reduce Dmoz frustration I have posted the following on the evils of auto-submissions and subscription services that promise and deliver nothing and even more nothing then you bargained for. Of course I will be told I do not know what I am talking about and others will agree with me I am not here to fight with any one. With the help of some Dmoz editors last night I have gotten some good information and I have passed it on in the form of PM’s. I am not going to say who the editors were as there is no reason to drag them into this they did ask me why I deleted my posts a…

I am having such a hard time getting my www.temecula-real-estate.com site listed. I have had an editor tell me they thought it was a mirror of my Hemet site until I told them it was a site for a seperate office in Temecula, then he agreed it belonged. For some reason, he wrote today and he cannot get his fellow editors to look at it and help me get it in. Two other agents in my office have their sites listed for Temecula, but I am being blackballed. Can someone help??? Here is a little about my sites and myself. I am a Realtor in California. As we all know, Realtors can sell anywhere in the state they are licensed. I live in between Hemet California and Temecula Ca…
