DMOZ, long considered the leading directory on the Internet and an absolute must for listing your Website, had literally stopped accepting new submissions for the past three months.

The problem?

The site is run by volunteers and they had become overwhelmed by a backlog of listing requests. The situation had gotten so bad, some pundits were predicting that DMOZ was dead and no longer relevant.

DMOZ is a source site for all the top search engines, and getting listed there enhances your listing visibility on the search engines. So if you're not already listed on DMOZ, sign up today at www.dmoz.com.

A few tips for your listing--

• Make sure you choose the correct listing category for site
• Avoid offering any spam-like information
• Be patient, there still is a substantial time lag between submitting your site and getting listed
• Don't re-submit your site multiple times; DMOZ editors might interpret your attempts to do so as being spam

 

The Open Directory Project (DMOZ) has opened its doors again for submissions to its directory.
