Could some one let me know the status of Landscape Forum ? Submitted to Arts/Architecture/Landscape on 2 Jan 2003.
Thanks

It is awaiting review in a pool of fewer than 10 sites.
However, after taking a quick glance at your site, I don't know if I should advise you to hold out much hope. An earlier submission was deleted for lack of content, and I can't say that I see much content now. For instance, your "archive" which says that it will be available as of November, 2002, doesn't appear to have any content at all. You would have a much better chance of being listed if there were actually some landscape-related content on your site.

Thanks for that. And for the feedback. You're right - it is a little content light at the moment. Problem is that the landscape community is fairly low-tech, so we're having a problem drumming up numbers. Which is why I'm after a DMOZ listing. Circle time!
Hmm - so rather than just using the site as a web presence for the email list, I need to hide away at the weekend and get some more content on there. Obvious really. Oh well, thanks again.

You're welcome. Adding content is always a good idea. <img src="/images/icons/smile.gif" alt="" />
I do want to make it clear that I'm not going to review your site, so any advice from me may or may not be helpful. You could start discussions among yourself and your closest friends (who might have computers). After all, if I go to a discussion site, and I don't see any discussion (not even a single message from the people running the site), I would assume that no one is there, and I wouldn't bother posting. As a result, an ODP listing, or listings in all the search engines of the world might not help if there's nothing on the site.
The successful discussion lists in the areas with which I am most familiar (not necessarily high-tech, either) generally started either from informational pages (where someone published articles on a subject, and then decided a discussion would be useful), or from existing communities (either online or offline groups/clubs/circles-of-friends). You'll probably do a lot better drumming up support by contacting other landscape enthusiasts (but please, no spamming), rather than waiting for them to come because they saw your site in a search engine or directory.
