Category Entry Issues

Hi!

While searching:

http://www.dmoz.org/Regional/North_.../Business_and_Economy/Computers_and_Internet/


I encountered the following issues I wanted to bring to your attention:

Change of Site Format/Incorrect Category/ Possible Hijack. The category is for computers and internet, the entry description is for a Cold Fusion, PHP, Perl and search engine specialist but the actial site appears totally unrelated to the category or description.

Hans Anderson - Cold Fusion, PHP, Perl and search engine specialist.​


Duplicate Entry/Hijacked Link. The title indicates Progressive Networks but the actual site advertises itself as UniVisionWeb.com.

Progressive Networks - Domain hosting and website development. Includes contact information.​

UniVisionWeb is also in Missoula, MT and has an ODP entry shown below. Notice the pages are identical to those of the Progressive Networks entry above.

Category:
http://www.dmoz.org/Computers/Internet/Web_Design_and_Development/Designers/Full_Service/U/

Entry:
UniVision, Inc. - Specializes in development, hosting, and e-commerce solutions. Located in Missoula, Montana.​

Duplicate Entry in Category

Hi!

While searching:

http://www.dmoz.org/Regional/North_America/United_States/Montana/Localities/L/Loma/

I encountered the following issue I wanted to bring to your attention:

Duplicate entries. The second entry is just a deeplink of the first entry that links back to the first entry. The "3 Rivers News Page" provides no news.

3Rivers Canoes - We will provide you with a full equipped trip complete with cook and guide to a trip where we furnish all necessary supplies, food, and canoes, or rent just the canoes. Located in Loma, Montana.

3 Rivers News Page - We start most of our expeditions at Loma, where you float from the Marias into the Missouri, giving you a feeling of the significant question that faced Lewis and Clark.​

Parking Page

Hi!

While searching:

http://www.dmoz.org/Regional/North_America/United_States/Montana/Localities/P/Peerless/

I encountered the following issue I wanted to bring to your attention:


Parking Page

Peerless Montana - An enrollment generally around 30, graduates an average of 5-7 Seniors. No one falls through the cracks in this school system. Each student gets full and special attention.


Wayback shows this as a parking page since April 2005

Hijacked Link

Hi!

While searching:

http://www.dmoz.org/Regional/North_America/United_States/Montana/Localities/W/Whitetail/

I encountered the following issue I wanted to bring to your attention:


Hijacked Link. The first time you click the following title link, you will be taken to a landing page of a cheap pay-per-click site which after a few seconds, redirects you to a mortgage company website. As long as their cookie is in your browser, they won't do the redirect again but the scanner frequency landing page is still a cheap PPC site.


Whitetail, Montana Scanner Frequencies - Updated scanner frequencies for thousands of cities.​

Hi!

While searching:

http://www.dmoz.org/Regional/North_...s/B/Bigfork/Business_and_Economy/Real_Estate/

I encountered the following issue I wanted to bring to your attention:

Duplicate entry. The landing page has an "under construction" message with a timed redirect to a new URL whose landing page is for a different company than is named in the entries link text. The redirected-to URL is for a company (Trails West Eagle BendRealty) that already has two other entries in this category.

Montana Trophy Properties - Some of the finest and most luxurious homes Montana has to offer.​


Title Text Changed. I didn't find a reference to RMR Realty. The new company Bay Club, Inc. is according to it's profile page owned by Trails West Eagle BendRealty which FYI, has two other entries in this category.

RMR Realty - Condominium development community at the Marina Cay.​
