The FAQ advises to apply for a category of 100 or less sites listed. I'm writing to ask advice about a category I'd very much like to apply to be the editor of.
The following category has no editor -
"Business: Marketing and Advertising: Salesmanship"
There are 161 sites currently listed - so that's over 100. Being very web savy and having a good understanding of the ethos and practices of dmoz, I'd like to apply to be the editor of this category - yes, this would be my first. I am also a member of webmasterworld, which I believe gives me a broad perspective of SEO issues and their potential abuses.
Why this category? My area of expertise is sales negotiation. Not only do a I live and breathe the topic of Salesmanship - clients are large multinationals on several continents. I've naturally researched sites in this area extensively for several years now. So my editing should be highly informed, quick and accurate. My own site reflects my knowledge of the area of Business Salesmanship (www.CalumCoburn.com)
"Marketing and Advertising" category (one up), has 8838 entries - so I believe my becoming an editor would alleviate a burden from this large category editor.
There are 2 categories below, these have 59 and 86 entries respectively. The 59 category does not presently have an editor, and I'm prepared to take on that responsibilty too.
Please pass on your advice and opinions.
With Thanks
Calum
