CAL Posted February 3, 2005 Posted February 3, 2005 Hello, I just wanted to follow up on the status of my site, http://www.advertzoo.com I submitted to http://dmoz.org/Computers/Internet/Web_Design_and_Development/Promotion/Advertising,_Banners,_and_Exchanges/Banner_Exchanges/ on December 3rd, 2004 Thanks in advance Craig
CAL Posted February 4, 2005 Author Posted February 4, 2005 Thanks uzs980 Do you have any idea how much longer it will be? I have emailed the editor from the dmoz site and I have had no response. Thanks again Craig
bobrat Posted February 4, 2005 Posted February 4, 2005 Editors are not encouraged to get into dialogs, the email is really intended for sending information to editors, and many editors do not reply. You could have got our best answer to this by reading the forum FAQ. I don't know what sites I'm going to review tomorrow, I don't have a good estimate how many sites I'm going to review next week. I do know how many sites I reviewed last year, and could not say if the number I review this year will be more or less. The number of sites I review next month has no connection to what I reviewed last month. With that uncertainty - the ability to answer someone about when a specific site will be reviewed is somewhat impossible for most editors. If an editor has one category, and your site is the only one waiting to be reviewed, maybe that editor could make a guess - but no one else could predict when he would review that site. Now I could make a guess, but it's a lose-lose - if I tell you it will probably be reviewed in 3 months and it takes longer you will be unhappy, so let's say I play it safe and tell you 4 years, you will be extremely upset. As another editor said earlier today, if you get an answer how will it change your life and what you do with the information anyway? f I tell you I guarantee it will be listed this week, does that mean you sit back with a smile waiting for the revenue to pour in? If I tell you for sure it will take at least four years - do you close your business, and declare bankruptcy knowing that you will never make it on the internet? The truth is that getting an ODP listing will at best have only a marginal difference in your business. What really counts are many other factors, and you should be working on those things.
CAL Posted March 17, 2005 Author Posted March 17, 2005 Hi Another month and a half has passed in regards to my site submission to DMOZ and my site is still not listed. Can I possibly get the status checked again please? Thanks in advance.
Editall/Catmv arubin Posted March 17, 2005 Editall/Catmv Posted March 17, 2005 You may ask again 6 months from your last status report in February.
