Hello;

Does anyone knows what are the requirements of DMOZ Internet Directory?

How to get his/her website approved there?

DMOZ directory approval seems to take a long time.....is this directory still useful?

It never, ever was "useful"!

Now a days Dmoz is used for finding a right category to submit your keyword to other directory sites. Though dmoz take a long time to approve but it gives the result. But there are many other important directory sites those give the result quickly.

Only well established sites go through the DMOZ submission process and also it takes quite long (sometimes couple of years) for the approval.

I think the selection of the category is the most vital criteria.

DMOZ is hopelessly out of date and only exists to list websites owned by friends of the editors.

None of the major search engines give it any importance any more and you can get good rankings without being in DMOZ.

DMOZ is one popular web directory site. I've tried submitting there a few times. You just pretty much wait for them to approve your site, that's it.

I tried to submit to Dmoz too. But no response from them. Instead of focusing on Dmoz you should spend time in other quality directories than.

Getting your website accepted on DMOZ directory is not very easy. You need to follow DMOZ guide lines very carefully to get your listing.

I submitted my website to Dmoz months ago - still not listed, I wonder if anyone can get listed!

**jewelraz** · 07-12-2012, 03:53 AM

I have submitted my website link in DMOZ. It's in waiting mode. Hope they will reply me with decline/accept message within six months. Submission process in Dmoz may take six months as far as I remember.

I added iapp-mac.com on 06/2012 and, after two months the website was added in DMOZ (on 08/2012).

Site has abou 4000-5000 visite for day... and it is in a good position on alexa.com.

I think that the number of "unique visitors" and "alexa position" are rilevant for DMOZ add.

**chrishirst** · 10-10-2012, 01:14 PM

Well given that only YOU know how many "unique visitor" your pages get, and nobody in their right mind even bother looking at "Alexa ratings" I would vey much doubt that.

**UltimaWeb** · 11-13-2012, 03:24 PM

I've submitted my websites into DMOZ maybe three or four months ago, and still none of them listed

**vangogh** · 11-14-2012, 02:08 PM

@chrishirst - isn't it amazing that in 2012 (nearly 2013) we're still talking about DMOZ. Didn't it pretty much die years ago? That is assuming it was ever alive and worth something in the first place.

I know, you could be be forgiven for thinking that we still use pigeons for carrying the news around the world.
