Hi,

 

I asked the same question yesterday, but nobody answered. I hope I'll have a better luck today.

 

What is the submission status of my web site http://asp-hosting.ca

 

 

Thanks,

Peter

There seems to be a history of this site being unavailable whenever someone has gone to look at it, hence part of the reason it's taking so long. The editor visiting yesterday got a message that the site was down for maintenance.

 

Anyway, I've added it back into the unreviewed queue there since it appears to be up and running today. You can come back to this thread in a month or more to check back up on it.

Could you please check what is the submission status of http://asp-hosting.ca. The site has over 99.97% uptime and it's really strange that the site is always unavailable when an editor tries to visit it.

 

I appreciate your help,

Peter

You wouldn't by any chance be restricting access by IP would you? Or by country of request origin?

 

No, I don't do that.

 

Thanks,

My thread went on the second page without answer. Can somebody tell me what is the submission status of http://asp-hosting.ca ?

 

Thanks,

Sure :)

 

The submission status is "awaiting review" along with just under 100 other sites.

 

Two days after the manual submission was made, which was mentioned above, an editor tried to review the site, and got a redirect to an "Under Construction" page (The redirect was to http://asp-hosting.ca/underconstruction.htm ). This time, though, because of the discussion in this forum, they didn't delete it, but left it for another time or editor.

 

I can confirm that right now the site works for me.

As stated in the posting guidelines for this forum, please wait a month between one update request and the next. Since your last request was on July 10, the earliest we'd like to see another one is August 10. In a backlogged category like this, waiting even longer would be even better.

 

Sorry to be such a pill about it, but asking people to wait lets us handle more people's requests. We appreciate your patience and understanding on this one.

Sorry about that guys, I know you are busy.

I’ll check for your response in the next couple of days.

 

Thanks again,

Still waiting with about the same number of others. Please have patience as I'm sure it will be reviewed in due time.

 

Thanks,

 

So I have to check here again after 1 month?

 

 

Regards,

Peter

I'm waiting since October 2002, so I guess I can wait 1-2 months more :(

 

Thanks,

Peter

If you're feelin lucky, 1 month. If not 2 months would be better.

 

I'm feeling lucky today :smirk:

Did somebody review my site http://asp-hosting.ca ?

 

Thanks,

Peter

Your site has not been reviewed yet, but it is now number one when sorting the site suggestions by submission date.

 

Yours,

Thanks for the quick reply Robert,

 

I hope the submissions are reviewed in the order they were sent :smirk:.

How long does it take for a site that is reviewed and approved to show up in the directory?

 

 

Thanks again,

Peter

Editors can check submissions in any order they want.

 

When a site has been reviewed and accepted, it's a matter of some minutes up to some days until it is visible in the dmoz.org category page. Passing on the data to external users like directory.google.com usually takes a little bit longer - it depends on when they pick up the new data provided by the ODP.

 

Yours,

Robert

They usually aren't.

"NORMALLY" (all daemons behaving, all servers up, no software upgrades with glitches -- in other words, do not bet money you need on it)

 

1) dmoz.org public pages -- 1 minute to 7 days;

2) RDF (published Open Directory Database) -- 4 to 10 days

3) google.com and AOL.com DIRECTORIES: 2 months "or so"

4) google.com SEARCH: several weeks at most (after step 2)

 

Note that all of these are automatic processes, programmed fallibly and run intermittantly by other people. This is all based on our prior experience or rumors of other people's activity. So if it doesn't happen this way, don't ask us why, and don't blame us!

Thanks for the informative answers.

The category that I'm trying to get into doesn't have an editor, so I guess this will make my waiting even longer.

 

I appreciate your help,

Peter
