    Nothing is guaranteed in this world! Nor is Dmoz... no approval rate guarantee, some active editor take less time to approve listings and other maybe take even longer. There is no answer to your question.

    Would advice you to keep waiting! ;)

    DMOZ can take months may be 6 months. Frankly no one can tell you time. I never had a luck with dmoz. None of my sites are listed in dmoz.

    Don't expect much 'coz DMOZ have their editors approving or disapproving those submitted sites.. If they disapproved there's nothing you can do about it... It will not be approved and get listed in DMOZ... :(


    'coz the approval in DMOZ is liked this: editors + DMOZ approved = approved

    DMOZ is a Good directory but I don't rely on it. I think a year or 6 months depends on how many time you resubmit your page and how quality is your content.I recommend to submit ones.

    I submitted my first site about two years ago and it was approved about 3 months later. Then last year I submitted my second site but it took about 7 months before it was approved. So the time seems to be getting longer.

    It takes anywhere from 2 minutes to a few years (if it meets the listing guidelines) to never (if it does not meet the listing guidelines)

    They have never got back to me, but they accepted my site.
    I changed site once and contacted them, they took about a month to update my url.
    Don't expect an answer and be prepared to wait a long time :)

    I have added 100's of sites within 24hrs of being submitted and was not paid. You really have to stop giving the impression people have to pay to get listed, as people start believing it and then get cranky when they get caught. See what happened here.

    It is somewhat amusing that editors say don't do it and those that say do it are those that are disgruntled for whatever reason with DMOZ. It is the unfortunate webmaster who chooses to believe the disgruntled.

    I also find it amusing that some also believe that a link on DMOZ is even worth paying for! - its only a link!

    Hope you are not talking about the site in your profile! It would have been deleted every time.

    That's really a waste of your ass-kissing effort. At least for something more valuable than a dumb link on a PR4 page. Not bad, but not worth extraordinary effort.

    Brace yourself for a maximum wait. The only listed editor is "sole" who is solely responsible for all of the dmoz.org/Reference/ section! You might die before she gets to your site. Sure, there are some editall etc that might wander in, but don't hold your breath. Could be up to five years, unless sole reads this and wants to prove me wrong.
