  • Girish Kapoor: Does anybody know what is the best technique submit your website in http://www.dmoz.org
  • Ryan White:  ;Personally, i wouldn't use Dmoz for any link building methods. Dmoz is an old directory site and over the past few years I have seen that more and more listings getting deleted than being added. If your site is a local based company then you should focus at building local citations rather than going through spammy directory sites.
  • Girish Kapoor: +Ryan White i think DMOZ has very good reputation, and a backlink coming from a reputed directory can help a lot. Second thing, DMOz helps a lot in driving traffic to a website. Please advise +Jim Munro +Edwin Jonk ;
  • Dave Elliott: i find waiting two years does the trick. I rarely bother with dmoz. No real point in it any more.
  • Girish Kapoor: Thanks +Dave Elliott Let us see tomorrow +Dumb SEO Questions Hangout, what did he say about on it.
  • happysus sait: In 2007, The only reason anyone cares about DMOZ inclusion is Google’s ties to it and rankings. But Now....ha ;

    OMG. Who the hell cares about DMOZ anyway?  ;If DMOZ does not care about us webmasters .  ;My friend loss money  ;to somebody claiming to be a DMOZ editor  ;7 years ago. DMOZ has had more than 70,000 volunteer editors worldwide.  ;

    ??Google Calls DMOZ Link Unnatural By Mistake. ?? Dont't Understand why?

    Google cares only about their clicks on ads and to get sites to advertise.  ;But Google  ;don't avoid the value of DMOZ.com . ;Dmoz has dropped significantly in popularity over the years

    The cuetimes listed on this page are functional while the live broadcast continues and also once Youtube has finished processing the public broadcast. Processing time varies between 6-24 hours. During this period the clip is viewable in full but the cuetimes cannot be relied on.
