Guest robmara Posted March 5, 2003 Posted March 5, 2003 I added my url: www.yogasuperstore.com around January 10, 2003. I attempted to add it to http://dmoz.org/Society/Religion_and_Spirituality/Yoga/Shopping/ Can you please tell me its status? Thank you in advance
motsa Posted March 5, 2003 Posted March 5, 2003 You're waiting for review along with a couple of dozen other sites (no, I don't know how much longer it will be before you're reviewed -- you're not the newest site but you're not the oldest, either).
lachenm Posted April 15, 2003 Posted April 15, 2003 Responding to your status request in the other thread, you are still waiting with a few dozen other sites.
Guest robmara Posted May 5, 2003 Posted May 5, 2003 Hi, It's me again. Has there been any progress on the acceptance of www.yogasuperstore.com into the DMOZ directory? <img src="/images/icons/confused.gif" alt="" /> TIA, Rob
Alucard Posted May 5, 2003 Posted May 5, 2003 We ask people to wait *at least* one month between requests, so that we don't get completely swaped with requests.
Guest robmara Posted June 17, 2003 Posted June 17, 2003 Hello again, It is now June 17th, I originally sent my request to DMOZ around January 10th of this year. I have waited over 30 days since my last request for status. I have been patient and followed the rules. Is there anything I can do to facilitate getting my site listed in DMOZ? I am a legitimate site doing an honest business. If there is no editor for the cartegory can I get listed in the next higher category that has an editor? TIA, Rob
Alucard Posted June 17, 2003 Posted June 17, 2003 To answer your specific questions: Is there anything I can do to facilitate getting my site listed in DMOZ? No there is not. All submitted sites are equal, in the eyes of the editors, and get processed in whatever order the editor wishes. If there is no editor for the cartegory can I get listed in the next higher category that has an editor? No. There are several reasons why this isn't a good idea: First, if the category above the one has an editor, then they can also edit that sub-category, so that doesn't help you. Second, the site will get listed in the ONE category where it belongs, which means it won't get listed in the level above it. Third, if you submit to the level above it, then it will probably get moved down to the original subcategory anyway, and may actually end up delaying the time-to-list. I'm sure these aren't the answers that you were hoping to hear, but this is the way that the ODP works, for good reason. Thanks for your enquiry.
Guest robmara Posted July 31, 2003 Posted July 31, 2003 Hello, can you please tell me the status of www.yogasuperstore.com's request for submission to the DMOZ directory (originally submitted January 03)? Is there any hope <grn> of seeing this soon? TIA,
Meta windharp Posted July 31, 2003 Meta Posted July 31, 2003 About the same as before. Hope? There always is hope... Curlie Meta/kMeta Editor windharp
