How much time it took for you to be listed by DMOZ?

Many people are usually worried when their sites are not accepted by DMOZ directories. Could you, please, share your experience on submitting a website to DMOZ and how long it took for you before it was accepted? Thanks in advance.

 

I submitted to dmoz 2 years ago, I site got listed within 2 weeks another has not been added. Fingers crossed though.

 

When I submitted my first site to DMOZ it was accepted in a year or so.

 

How much time you got?

Could take days or weeks but most submissions are never added.

Make sure that you follow their instructions and are submitting a quality site. Repeat this once per month untill your site is listed or you give up.

 

Mine was included within ~20 days.

 

My blog was accepted in approx 4 months after submission.

 

Submitted 6 months back .. still waiting

 

i submitted 12 months ago, still nothing, ive heard that if you submit your site again, you go back to the end of the line, so i havent been game enough to try again.

 

A good few months at least...

 

i submitted 5 months ago, still its a Live....

 

Any secrets?

 

Yeah there is a secret:

Submit and Forget

 

Took my site about 12 months to be listed. I submitted it about 3 times during that 12 month period.

In the end it was accepted into a category that was different to my initial submission.

 

hi,

I have also submitted the best category of the dmoz listing....But approval will not be accepted.....
Thanks.

i have the same problem too, my submit isnt accepted until now..

 

It seems list approvals depends upon the category and moderator , We applied for mioot.com and got approved in 3 days , But waiting for mioottechnologeis.com for more than 3 years under web designers category.

 

Some times approaching the moderator on that category will help , they are approving if the request is valid one
