Lunarino Posted May 18, 2009 Posted May 18, 2009 I am having difficulty with finding the mechanism to update my listing. It seems that my site, <url removed> has been accepted and is now turning up search results at aol search. Is the problem that we need it to be re-indexed because some of the content has been updated since. For example: yahoo search now shows the proper results, titles and URL to us. However, google and aol search are still showing the old titles and structure. I have read the following from the help page: "How do I update the listing for my site? Updating is even easier. Simply go to the category which your site is listed, and click the "update URL" link at the top. For additional information on updating sites. See the instructions for submitting a site for more information about updating data about your site." I cannot find the update URL link Also, when I did a search at DMOZ site I get the following result "No Open Directory Project results found" Thanks so much for your help on this
jimnoble Posted May 18, 2009 Posted May 18, 2009 This forum is about the Open Directory Project, also known as DMOZ, not about the search engines you mention. If your website is listed here, you can request that its listing be amended by visiting the category where it's listed and use the update listing link at the top of the page.
Meta gloria Posted May 18, 2009 Meta Posted May 18, 2009 First, to find your site, search using "domain.com" not the entire URL. Then you can request an update to the description. But do not suggest a bunch of keywords. That violates our editing Guidelines, and will be deleted. The suggested description will only be used if it follows our Guidelines. We aren't AOL Search. You'll need to take up your description with them. If your site doesn't appear in an ODP search using "domain.com" then it wasn't listed the last time the RDF was updated. That date is at the bottom of the search results.
