Status ?: http://www.vialta.com/vistaframe100.htm

Hello-

Could you please tell me the status of my submission from around two months ago
of: http://www.vialta.com/vistaframe100.htm
into: http://dmoz.org/Shopping/Visual_Arts/Supplies/Frames/Digital/

Thank you kindly.

Sincerely-

It appears the site was rejected. I cannot tell you the reason because I do not know but I looked at the site and with my experience in the Shopping branch of the directory your site does not fit there. You apparently are not an online store with no way for a customer to really buy the product.

Also, the page you are submitting is what we call a deeplink. In my opinion, the page does not have enough content to be listed on its own anywhere in the directory. You should submit your main vialta.com site to whatever category best fits and not submit your single product pages.

Hi Helper-

Thanks for the feedback. Could I get your advice on a question? If a company manufactures two products, can the main website homepage be added into two different DMOZ categories? If not, is there another approach one should take?

Thanks very much.

You should submit your site to ONE category in the topical side of dmoz.org where you think it best fits. Your site appears to manufacture Consumer Electronic products (my best guess). Since you make more than one you would not submit to each product category rather you would submit to the main consumer electronics category. Not in Shopping though because you are not an online store. It looks like your site belongs somewhere in Business.

Good Luck
