http://www.drivingtheory.net

Hi,

I have a listing for http://www.drivingtheory.net in the directory " Regional > Europe > United Kingdom > Education > Vocational and Technical > Driving Schools". Unfortunately google has recently removed our main search engine query of "driving theory test" from their listings. We had a ranking of number two, but now we have no listing. We have made no changes to the keywords and meta tags etc.

Any help would be appreciated!

Can you please provide a clickable link to the category?

Can you please provide a clickable link to the DMOZ category?

sorry about that

Good news:

your site is listed here

Did you, um, look at the page to which you just linked?

It's there, in the usual alphabetical order, as "Drivingtheory.net". This is where you should look to see the latest publicly visible ODP listings, which Google will have (someday) when they next update.

When will Google update all their server farms to include the latest copy of the ODP?

That we don't and can't know. All we can say is, we believe they will update eventually.

Right now, some Google servers are almost up to date, some seem to be months behind (and for several months it seemed that they weren't updating at all). I suspect you were seeing an "up-to-date" server before, but happened to get an "obsolete" server this time.

As for Google search terms, they are based primarily on the actual text on your actual homepage. Google has recently made major changes in their search results (you can hear the screams of pain from all the public SERP forums, although searchers will often see MUCH improved results for all but the most focused shopping searches.)

The ODP listing has not changed since the site was added. So since this is strictly a Google change, you'd best ask about it in Google forums. We really aren't experts at that. This forum focuses on ODP issues.
