DaBull Posted June 24, 2004 Posted June 24, 2004 Hi, Would like to check status of http://www.AsSeenOnTV-Discounts.com that was submitted to http://dmoz.org/Shopping/General_Merchandise/As_Seen_on_TV/ I have submitted twice in last 6 months and have seen the category updated 4 times in that time period, but have not been included in the directory. Thank you.
spectregunner Posted June 24, 2004 Posted June 24, 2004 Your site has been reviewed by several editors, some quite senior, and the concensus is that your site is not eligible for a listing due to content issues. You might want to go take a careful look at the ODP guideline, with particular attention to the parts that discuss unique content and the types of sites we do not list.

Thank you for your time an deffort in responding. I guess I am still baffled as what makes my site any less "unique" than the others that are listed in this category http://dmoz.org/Shopping/General_Merchandise/As_Seen_on_TV/ . Besides that fact that our prices are many times lower than others. We all sell the same stuff.
Meta kokopeli Posted June 24, 2004 Meta Posted June 24, 2004 We all sell the same stuff. Exactly. Please see the ODP Guidelines Which includes: In general, ODP editors should enter sites that represent the following: # Original, unique and valuable informational content that contributes something unique to the category's subject. # Contrasting points of view on major issues. The ODP attempts to cover the full breadth and depth of human knowledge, representing all topics and points of view on those topics.
