Fine. I would do the re-submission as soon as the problem of Internal Server Error resolves. Thanks Guddu

Sorry, I did not mean to say "HE". This was just a way refering to an editor, we write "he". Sorry for that. Have you reposted the listing already or shall I do it at my end. The website requires a password. Thanks and Regards Guddu

But he said it was rejected and he forwarded this thread to the editor. So , what I understood was that listing is still in the queue waiting to be reviewed by the editor. So, I did not post it again fearing of making a duplicate entry once again. Shall I resubmit it again? Please Confirm. Regards Guddu

Hi, Please advice us if our listing is still there in que. Thanks & Regards Guddu

Hi Lin, Many thanks for your concern. I really appreciate for every effort you made for us. I understand, that a site may be rejected for valid reasons and hope the editor would understand my problem and give us one more chance to get our site accepted. Thanks & Regards Guddu

Thanks for your quick update about resubmissions that have taken place over last few months for medicalloveconnection. This submission was done along with the username and password after the previous discussion and as suggested by Robert. I have been working with submissions in DMOZ for quite a long time now and am aware of the guidelines. I was not aware of the fact that more than 20 submissions have been done for this domain over a short period. As per my knowledge, over the last 3 months, we have done submissions only 3 times and out of them, the last one was as per the discussions over resource-zone.com. (Our client has also denied any submisssions on their part) I think that this activity might have been done by any of our competitors. We apologize for any mistake committed at our end. But it's simply impossible for us to keep track for any submissions done by any other person intentionally, which might result in not listing our site. I'll be thankful if you could look into the issue once more and suggest some way out. Regards Guddu

Just to notify again an update. (The April Update in Google Directory noticed.)

Please provide me a solution. I do not understand what to do. Shall I resubmit to the same category, if it has been rejected and deleted. Please clear the situation. Thanks & Regards Guddu

Please do help me solve the problem. Thanks & Regards Guddu

The client might have posted himself, to different categories in order to get listed. Please suggest, what all can we do to resolve the problem. regards guddu

Hi windharp, How is this possible. We have submitted to the category after a discussion at resource-zone itself. The category has been suggested by an Editall - Robert (uzs980) to us as the most suitable category to be posted in. Please go through the discussion at http://www.resource-zone.com/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=status&Number=20472&page=16&view=collapsed&sb=5&o=&fpart=1 and suggest us the possible measures we can adopt to get the site listed. Thanks & Regards guddu

Hi, I would like to enquire about the status of www.medicalloveconnection.com submitted to the category: Society: Relationships: Dating: Personals: Specialized with the title: Dating & Matchmaking Service and description as: offers online dating and matchmaking service for doctors, nurses, physicians, dentists and other medical practitioners. Includes photo search, matchmaking personals. Thanks & Regards Guddu

Thanks lachenm, for explaining things well. This answers all my queries. But, I would like to report that the example of vedamsbooks, I mentioned above, is the one that I saw listed under multiple categories in DMOZ. Thanks John, This was quite helpful. Regards Guddu

Motsa, As you are unable to visit these sites, I would like to provide some more information on these sites. All these deeplink pages from these sites contain a huge list of different books along with their Author, Publisher, ISBN number, Prices and Book details that may be relevant for researchers,university students and faculties and are widely used in different departments of world universities, museums and also for individuals. Some of the subjects they deal in are Art, (Books on Art, Paintings, Sculptures, etc.) Architecture, Culture, Tribal Studies, History (Ancient & Modern History), Literature (Dance, Music, Drama,etc), Religion (Christianity, Hinduism, Jainism, Buddhism, etc.), Philosophy, Women Studies, Biographies, Oceoanology, Social sciences ( Social issues, growth & development), Bio Sciences, Environmental studies, Fauna & Flora (Wild life) etc. These students & faculties may search for particular subject only in the directory and may not find refernces for booksellers / books exporters / publishers that can help them acquire these books & reference material. So I personally feel, that they may be allowed to get listed atleast in major subjects categories such as Art, History, Literature, Religion, Philosophy and Women studies apart from one top listing in Books Category and one regional. While sites like amazon.com provide links to different companies and provide online shopping cart system for different items, these sites offer a huge list of books & reference materials on different subjects to be chosen from. Regards <img src="/images/icons/smile.gif" alt="" />

Thanks motsa, This answered first part of my second post also. Actually, the example I gave is for one of our client's website that deals into two major different businesses ( as described by you) and wanted it to be listed in both the sections where presently, I have it under one top listing for training & one regional listing (for training itself) only with the same title & description and the same URL. Can you please answer the second part too. (Both the sites are for books exporters / book sellers to world libraries with catalogue pages on different subjects. There are many more of the same kind. The first one is the one that I found listed in different categories for different subjects in DMOZ with different titles, descriptions and URLs while other is one of my clients who is in the same field.) Regards <img src="/images/icons/smile.gif" alt="" />

Hi gimmster, I just went through the links provided by you and they were quite helpful. I found that Sites that have true research value and/or cover a number of different subjects across the directory to such a degree that one category isn't sufficient in describing the site's contents. But I could not understand, whether as site like the above example such as koenig-solutions or vibrantbootcamp or a different site containing catalogues on various subjects such as vedamsbooks or bookloversindia can be listed under multiple categories or not with deeplinks with different content for different subjects. Regards <img src="/images/icons/cool.gif" alt="" />

Can we have multiple listings in DMOZ for a website, one for regional listing and multiple others for different fields of businesses the website features. For example, if a site deals in boot camp training for microsoft, cisco and red hat certifications + it deals in web design and development, shopping cart (ecommerce solutions), technical writing & search engine optimization / web promotion services Can this type of a website be listed in different categories for: [*]microsoft training [*]cisco training [*]red hat training[*]website design & development[*]ecommerce[*]technical writing & content management[*]search engine optimization[*]search engine submission[/list:u] for differnet URLs of the site. I have seen many websites appearing in DMOZ in multiple categories with different Titles & Descriptions for their internal URLs. Is this allowed for all? (What I knew was 1 top listing & 1 regional listing only <img src="/images/icons/wink.gif" alt="" /> )

Hi, For All who were waiting for DMOZ listing to appear in Google and the Google Directory - Its their dream come true. Google has finally been updated. I have got my site listed and saw many more new listing too. Finally, Google has taken data from the RDF dumps in the March 10 Update. Great News, Isn't it? <img src="/images/icons/grin.gif" alt="" />

Re: Help for changing the description Thanks giz This was what I meant. Thanks for such a wonderful explanation. Regards <img src="/images/icons/smile.gif" alt="" />

Re: Help for changing the description Hi motsa, I am sorry you didn't understand. Actually I was talking about searching in DMOZ with the company name. Though, the site was appearing in the category, immediately after acceptance, it was not coming in the DMOZ search for initial 15-20 days. (even before when I requested for a change in description). Now, its appearing fine. Now I think, I am clear. Regards

Thanks Robert We have re-submitted the site as per your suggesstion along with the login and password. Hope, this would work fine for us. Thanks & Regards <img src="/images/icons/smile.gif" alt="" />

Thanks windharp, Actually, we were very confused as for the choice of the best category suited. Would the following category be appropriate for posting: http://dmoz.org/Society/Relationships/Dating/Personals/Matchmaking/ Please advice me a suitable category as our site is a dating/ matchmaking site for doctors, nurses and other medical professionals. Thanks & Regards

Re: Help for changing the description Thanks Giz for your valueable addition to the discussion. . But, according to senox, Update of the search database depends on the update of the RDF dump. and I too have experienced that while my site was accepted and listed under the category, it was not showing up in the search results in the initial 15-20 days of acceptance. <img src="/images/icons/confused.gif" alt="" /> So, what was the reason. I am confused. Please help. Regards
