tony webb Posted July 20, 2010 Posted July 20, 2010 I submitted a website more 1 month ago and i haven't heard anything from DMOZ regarding it's listing. One section of DMOz says allow at least 2 weeks and another says it could take several months and is dependent on the category. I did not get an email to say it's been received by you when i submitted my website and am wandering if I need to submit it again as it may not been received by Dmoz. Could you let me know? <url removed>

rickj Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 No email goes out when a site is suggested for inclusion, the confirmation is displayed on the screen. There is no fixed times for evaluating suggestions and not all suggested sites will get listed. Hi. I have had a listing for a number of years but had to remove my website & discontinue my business for 2 years due to a temporary health problem in 2008. I have been able to restart my business now and my website is up and operational again. I have re-submitted my URL but not sure if that is the correct process? Will my URL request get the same consideration again or will I be penalised for having my website down for 2 years? Any suggestions would be much appreciated Regards Rick
Meta hutcheson Posted September 2, 2010 Meta Posted September 2, 2010 I have re-submitted my URL but not sure if that is the correct process? Yes, it is. Will my URL request get the same consideration again or will I be penalised for having my website down for 2 years? It would have to get the same consideration again. After all, the reviewer typically can't know the domain name even has the same owner as before. It's best to just start from scratch. (Only if the domain has a VERY nasty history would things be otherwise. But a site that was formerly listed presumably couldn't have all that nasty a history....)
dake Posted December 14, 2010 Posted December 14, 2010 No email goes out when a site is suggested for inclusion, the confirmation is displayed on the screen. There is no fixed times for evaluating suggestions and not all suggested sites will get listed. Then what is the criteria of the site being listed successfully? Please elaborate. Thank you
jimnoble Posted December 14, 2010 Posted December 14, 2010 It's all spelled out at http://www.dmoz.org/guidelines/include.html
wineboxes Posted December 15, 2010 Posted December 15, 2010 Hi, I submitted my site to DMOZ in a wrong category. So, I did it once again in correct category. Then, which one would possibly to be listed? The one in correct category or the one in first time? Thanks Quincy
Meta pvgool Posted December 15, 2010 Meta Posted December 15, 2010 Does it matter. If a website is listable it will be listed in the best category. Even if it is suggested to what is not the best category. I will not answer PM or emails send to me. If you have anything to ask please use the forum.
