Guest Posted August 2, 2002 Posted August 2, 2002 Hello, I have submitted my website http://www.fullwebservice.com under this category http://dmoz.org/Computers/Internet/Web_Design_and_Development/Designers/Full_Service/F/ I would highly appreciate if some kind editor could tell me its status. I saw that no editor was assigned to this particular category. So i think i should not expect it to be in the directory in the near future. /images/icons/smile.gif Regards safvan
Meta jazz Posted August 2, 2002 Meta Posted August 2, 2002 First, I have to say that the URL you submitted is nonresponsive. Second, that area of the directory is currently undergoing a major reorganization. The editors are more involved with moving the currently listed sites to the new structure than reviewing new sites. Thirdly, everyone and their mother proclaims to be a web designer. The unreviewed queue there is rather large. Even without the reorganization, you have a better chance of being listed in the Regional tree than with the Web Designers category. This assumes your web site is alive and you list your address on the site and the site isn't under construction. Be sure to read the guidelines there as the reorganization is supposed to make the unreviewed queues smaller. Many companies who call themselves "full service" are not according to the category guidelines. Just because your name is "Full Web Service" doesn't make you that... :/images/dmoz/purplegrin.gif
Guest Posted August 2, 2002 Posted August 2, 2002 Thank you for your interest but i must say that the url is responsive. Its where my site is uploaded, plus we are a group of ppl programmers(handling webhosting/domaiin), designers(doing design) and offcourse 2 marketing specialist(handling marketing) a total of 9 ppl. May be the URL I submitted be having some syntax mistake. Anyways i appreciate your help in this regard. Thank You!
Meta jazz Posted August 2, 2002 Meta Posted August 2, 2002 Must have been a burp or something. I can get there now.
Guest Posted August 2, 2002 Posted August 2, 2002 We are basically a irish firm. So i think your suggestion for the regional directory would be ok. I will submit there if our company is not suitable for this category, however i feel that it is the best category because we offer full web service not cuz its our name but our profession /images/icons/smile.gif Thanks!
Guest Posted August 2, 2002 Posted August 2, 2002 oh yeah, right now our designers are working on the site's outlook, so you may be seeing few changes on the main page. This was just to let you know:) regards safvan
Meta jazz Posted August 2, 2002 Meta Posted August 2, 2002 You can be listed in the topical trees once (web designers for you) and the regional tree. If you are in Ireland, then you can submit to wherever under http://dmoz.org/Regional/Europe/Ireland/ . However, I don't see any address on the site, which means that you really can't be listed under Regional as there is no reasonable way for the editor to know where you are located.
Guest Posted August 2, 2002 Posted August 2, 2002 I told you above that we are editing our pages. Our address and phone number would be available on our pages as soon as the editing is done. I will submit it in the category that you have suggested. Thank You and keep up the good work!
Meta jazz Posted August 2, 2002 Meta Posted August 2, 2002 If you are still editing the pages then you should have waited before submitting the first time.
Guest Posted August 2, 2002 Posted August 2, 2002 Sorry, wrong on my part! I will be careful in future.
giz Posted August 3, 2002 Posted August 3, 2002 I already made this comment elsewhere, but how about sending your web site to an HTML validator. Currently http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.fullwebservice.com&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=HTML+4.01+Transitional shows a bucket load of errors. It's not a requirement to be listed, but it would be a shame if some browsers didn't understand your HTML code.
