Hi there, I have noticed a that when you search DMOZ, our company name, archive america, does not return a result :mad: however, archiveamerica does :)
How do i make this change so that the correct name is shown, do i re submit or can it just be edited?

Thank for your help

The search function is not that fancy, and not always up to date. If your site is listed in a category, then nothing can be done. We don't change descriptions/titles in order for search to find the site, because search is really to point you in the general direction of categories, since ODP is a directory, not a search engine. We figure anyone who wants to search for a site will use Google.

However in fact search does find your site -- for archive america it's result #110

For "archive america" it's the only result

Thanks for the info, maybe i need to clarify,

The following results are the same for Google and DMOZ

archiveamerica ( no space between the 2 words ) Listed and #1 Google

archive america ( space between the 2 words ) Not listed and not in Google

is this just a coincidence? or am i just being a dumbass?

Thanks

And reread bobrat's earlier post regarding how the site turns up depending on how you search. The long and short of is that your site is listed with the correct title in the ODP and we can't do anything about your Google results.
