Hi my web stats showed that a dmoz editor visited my site on 29th Sept.
I applied for a dmoz listing in April ..... and was pleasantly surprised that it only took an editor less than 5 months to look at my site.
However it has been a further month since the editor looked at it and I am yet to get a dmoz listing.
My understanding of the system is that once an editor reviews a site they make an instant decsion to either list the the submission (subject to the editors amendments) or they reject it.
I did follow the guidelines rigidely or at least I thought I had.
- I did not repeat or spam any keywords, I gave a factually correct, fully punctuated description (23 words from memory) of the service I provide where I am based.
However, not seeing my listing, since the editor looked at my submission, tells me that me submission has either been rejected or passed onto another editor to review.
If you could provide me with some feedback as to how my submission is progressing ..... so that I can either re-submit (preferably with advice of why I was rejected - if that is the case) or if the editor was planning a sneaky Christmas present for me I will patiently wait until the New Year before enquiring further.
Cheers
Nathan
