News from the dead..
February 14, 2007
Dmoz is a large web directory but since a long time the directory is not taking any new submissions, from December 18th 2006 dmoz is taking new submissions.. Yeah right, this message from a dmoz editor will tell you more.
Curt Monash is a editor at dmoz, at his blog texttechnologies.com he makes the following statements about the directory dmoz.org.
- DMOZ is dead. Fiction!
- New site submissions are being processed. Partial fact.
- Pending site submissions were lost in the outage. Partial fact.
- Other non-public ODP data was lost in the outage too. Partial fact.
- New editor applications aren’t being processed yet. Fact.
- ODP editors are corrupt. Fiction!
- The ODP is secretive and deceptive. Largely fiction.
- If a DMOZ category doesn’t have a listed editor, it’s unlikely to get much attention. Part fact, part fiction.
- ODP editors hate search engine optimization. Partial fact.
- ODP editors hate SEOs. Partial fact.
Well as we all can read, dmoz is still dead. Read on in this interesting article about the directory dmoz.
In the mean time I would suggest to submit your website to a quality web directory like dirspace, avivadirectory, alivedirectory, botw or site-sift directory.
