GS_schua Posted June 16, 2004 Posted June 16, 2004 Hi, Please let me know the status of http://www.electroniccomponents.globalsources.com, submitted to http://www.dmoz.org/Business/Electronics_and_Electrical/Components/ Best Regards, Shannon
Meta hutcheson Posted June 16, 2004 Meta Posted June 16, 2004 Ineligible for listing -- deeplink of directory. Please submit your site -- not each page -- to the one most appropriate category.
GS_schua Posted June 16, 2004 Author Posted June 16, 2004 Hi, I understand what you meant, but as my site consists of 8 vertical pages, so I thought of placing each of them into the appropriate category in dmoz. is it possible? Best Regards, Shannon
GS_schua Posted June 16, 2004 Author Posted June 16, 2004 If that's the case, why is that one of the competitor's site has many sub domains listed on dmoz.org? is that allowed?
Meta hutcheson Posted June 16, 2004 Meta Posted June 16, 2004 You can request a review if you think there has been abuse according to your understanding of the rules. We'll be happy to look at it. It is not against the guidelines for a site to have multiple listings. And those listings might be on separate domains, separate subdomains, separate directories, or merely separate files. It is against the guidelines for a site to have multiple submittals -- editors are responsible for additional listings "in exceptional cases". (One of the competitors conceivably might be exceptional.)
GS_schua Posted June 16, 2004 Author Posted June 16, 2004 Hi hutcheson, Thanks for your clarification. But http://www.electroniccomponents.globalsources.com is currently not listed on dmoz. How do I request a review?
bobrat Posted June 16, 2004 Posted June 16, 2004 Since you already have http://globalsources.com listed in 4 categories, I question whether you should ask for additional listings for this URL.
GS_schua Posted June 16, 2004 Author Posted June 16, 2004 Hi bobrat, I have 8 other sub-domains that is suitable for other dmoz categories. If you question if I should have any more listings, then I will also question why the competitor's site have in total 41 listings, including sub-domains. But that aside, I will appreciate if you will give us a chance for review. Many thanks!
