ODP search error?

Hello,


My website 1-web-hosting-domain-registration-services.com was added in the following category of ODP

http://dmoz.org/Computers/Internet/Web_Design_and_Development/Hosting/1/

on 3rd. June or 2nd June 2002( not sure). The latest update was on 15 june 2002 but my site is still not searchable even now. Its listed in the category. All the other newly added sites can be searched and found but my website still being listed for last 15 days cannot be found.

What seems to be the problem? Is it an error or some normal procedure i do not know about?


Regards
Safvan

This is quite natural and don't worry about it. You can find more info on the subject in Bugs and Features section of this forum.

Thank You very much for your help. I really appreciate it:)

There is one thing bothering me. All the new websites added to this category on 3rd June can be found in the search index, simply indicating that there might be something wrong with my website or the search system i dont know about.

safvan,

As long as your site is listed in the category and the hyperlink is correct everything will be fine /images/icons/smile.gif

The search engine on DMOZ/ODP is mostly used by editors and someone like yourself checking their listing. The search function can be very flakey at times. Your site will be included when a search engine like Google gets the information for your sites category. I know it can be nerve racking - don't worry as we have all gone through this at one time or another /images/icons/smile.gif

safvan,

You're Welcome.

In the future try to keep all of your posts on a subject in one thread since you basically received the same answer from an editor and myself /images/icons/smile.gif

Have a Good Evening
