Becoming Editor of Directories

**keral82** · 10-03-2005, 09:47 AM

Hello everyone,
I tried in zeal, skaffe, joeant and dmoz.
But they won't accept my site.
Just an auto responder message was sent.(I thought so)

Then I got angry and I passed the zealot quiz for zeal. Became a member at joeant. And also became an editor for small category in DMOZ.

Now When i want to submit a site this people won't allow me. They want that I should earn points for submitting other sites and then they will review it.
If I get enough points I will be given the category.

I submitted more then 200 sites. All spell checked and neat according to guidelines.
Now the other editors are not reviewing my site.
So I get no points. Means no category. And that means my site still not listed there.

Does some one know what should i do next???
Because I am not going to sleep well until I get listed there.

What don't you just give up ;-) They are not bringing you so much traffic anyway !

They are not worth all that. And DMOZ doesn't list any sites except the editors own sites anymore.

So instead of complaining about it why don't you make your site worth listing ?????

So, you mean the intention on becoming an editor is just to list your site ? I am an Ex DMOZ Regional Editor and 2 of my sites is not listed and 1 got unlisted. But its not a big deal since I am improving my site by myself. DMOZ has a lot of BIG ISSUES to solve since there are a lot of Corrupt and Lazy Editors. I have proven that and is the reason of my dismissal. I had been reprimanded by a META for exposing such a case. Nevertheless, I went ahead.

In your case, having sites would need improvements by you and it will come from you. Happy editing.
