3 weeks and listed

Submitted and was listed within three weeks,
astonished by this after reading so many DMOZ is dead threads.
Just goes to show a little research, pick the right category and cross your fingers.

 

Not really, just shows u got lucky.

Cheers

 

congrats, that is quite something...may i ask the niche?

 

Go regional, if it allows.
The idea being that even if widgets are too boring to edit,, somone will always edit a town or region

 

that's what I have been doing for 2 years and not listed yet

 

thanks for the tip!

 

Nah,
u just live in a more interesting town and even the DMOZ editors are out partying

 

Actually it seems you submitted to a category which was a bit smaller that also had an active Editor. Congratulations though.

 

congrats buddy. one of my sites is waiting over one to be listed by dmoz

 

I'm inclined to believe in this theory.

 

The more planning I do, the luckier I get........

 

Luck is when pre-planned thought meets opportunity.

 

I also submitted a few sites, but never got submitted. About three weeks ago I listed a new site. Less than 2 weeks the new one got approved and listed.

I think it also depends much on the different people working in the different categories.

My personal opinion is that Dmoz should get new people every X-months to ensure continuous work.

 

only in your dreams

 

I agree But, it would be nice if that would happen. Dmoz is a very influencial directory

 

Is it so easy?
I saw many projects in which people are ready to pay nice money to get listed to Dmoz.
BTW Congratulations to you.

 

Problem is United Nations bureaucracy is model of efficiency compared to DMOZ it would take 180 degree turn for DMOZ to get back on the right path but none of this can happen since there are too few persons inside DMOZ who care enough about it to make a difference.

 

I have to agree with you

 

I applied with a new site last night.
I wonder if this one will get in ??

 

I hope you are not submitting sites that are affiliated in any way.
