I noticed a dmoz editor hit my site this morning... and sure enough by 3:00 PM, I was listed. I already have had 2 visitors from them in the last few minutes. It took me about 3 months to get listed.
Congrats, thats pretty quick to get listed. Don't expect a lot of traffic unless you have some super spot, but the benefits of being listed are nice.
Congratulations! Three months isn't bad at all. I don't get much traffic from Dmoz either, but as said it is a nice pr link. I actually get a lot more traffic off of Wikipedia.
Rofl! That's funny, I don't care who you are! Back on topic... congrats dude! I remember my first DMOZ listing, made me smile for a week every time I thought about it.
Great! I had one of my sites accepted within 2 weeks. You will not get a lot of traffic from them but sure enough you will get links from other directories. But I know is a good feeling ... It's almost as good as bad sx!
Congratulations. I am still waiting for some of my sites to get accepted (2 months or longer and counting.)
Someone touched on it but I will explain it a little more. The benifit of being in DMOZ is not that 1 DMOZ listing. Depending on your category you will also now get backlinks from other sites that use the DMOZ listings on their site. For example one of my sites in DMOZ received around 250 extra backlinks along with DMOZ/Google. So the real benifit is all those copycats out there.
Congrats to you. And not to open another thread. I too noticed dmoz editor hitting my History Timelines site couple of minutes ago, but not listed yet. I wonder if he approved. Well I was checking other timelines sites in dmoz and I dont't see why he would not accept it but you never know right As I read in the first post ... you have to wait couple of hours to get into if it is approved
Usually when a site is approved, it will not appear on the public side for a couple of days. So the site very well may have been included already and you just need to wait for the public server to update (or maybe not, purely speculation). Good luck.
Congrats. I am still waiting for some sites to make it. The longest one is currently 15 months on the waiting list. Christoph
I have a link on their web for a long time, but I didn't suggest the link. also no traffic from them. just wonder why, but I think I got PR from them.
