Getting listed in DMOZ or the Open Directory Project is one of the better links to get from a web directory. There is certainly a lot of debate about the actual value of DMOZ and certainly a lot of spurious and unsubstantiated comments made in webmaster forums about the corruption at DMOZ. Its not worth sweating over. It does not take long to suggest a site. If you get a link, you get a link. If you do not get a link, the world will not end.
How to get listed:
- Have a site that is actually listable. It has to add value and be better than the sites already listed in the category
- Pick the one best category
- Write a guideline compliant description and title (check the sites already listed for examples)
- Submit once (any more than that can hurt you)
- Move on, as you have done all you can do.
