http://www.poop.com

I have sporadically submitted my site - http://www.poop.com - to dmoz over the last several months, and it's never shown up. I was just wondering what I might have done wrong, or if I got blacklisted for something.

Here is the category I've been trying to submit to:
http://www.dmoz.org/Shopping/Clothing/Casual/T-Shirts/Humor/

Thanks!

First, ODP doesn't list doorways--the shopping content is listed on cafepress and therefore it is your cafepress url (which appears to be http://www.cafeshops.com/jedipoop,poop8,poop7,poop1,poop2,poop3,poop4,poop5,poop6,poop9.5048195 )

The site has been declined for content reasons in Games/Video_Games/Genres/Sports/Skateboarding/Tony_Hawk's_Pro_Skater_Series/Cheats_and_Hints and Recreation/Humor/Jokes previously.

It also looks appears your site is mainly links to other content such as http://www.poopreport.com/ which is listed. http://www.poop.com does not appear to me to include original content.

In regards to the cafepress contents, not many cafepress sites are listed and it would need to be found to have outstanding content in order to be included. You don't offer a wide variety of products, I personally wouldn't deem it to be "outstanding". We get thousands of cafepress sites submitted, which is just different pictures on the exact same products each time. For that reason, the site must offer something very unique. Sorry, but I really doubt your cafepress product content will be found to be unique.

Ouch...the CafePress store is just in place until my schedule allows me time to print the shirts myself (as I've done in the past). The first time I submitted I had a huge joke and funny pic archve (hence the joke category)...but I certainly never submitted it to the Tony Hawk one...

The links section is just reciprocal links with other sites...they link back to me in the same fashion.

So I can re-submit when I revert back to making the shirts myself?

You've given me quite a bit to chew on, and I appreciate the heads-up on my site's current downfalls.

You can of course resubmit when you are printing them yourself, but at the same time it still would need to be considered unique content. When I looked for your site in that one category there were probably about 20 different cafepress sites waiting for review. If you are printing t-shirts yourself that really look no different than the zillion cafepress sites that continue coming in it would still not be unique content. The beef is not with cafepress, and I have personally listed some cafepress sites--but not many. It isn't that their products are bad, just that the stores are easy to open up and we see a lot of them. The key is to be offering something special and unique.
