DMOZ Directory
-
Have not hear much good about DMOZ lately. Is this listing worth anything?
-
Thats a good idea, in that way we can remove competitor out as well and also notify DMOZ editors as well. But, according to me, they get a notification when the site is dead and there are some hosting or domain issues with the site
-
thanks. looks like this category has no dedicated editor. perhaps why there have been no new additions
-
In categories that have a dedicated editor, their name and link to their profile is usually shown where it currently says "volunteer to edit this category".
-
where does on look to find out how to contact the editor for the section in question? The section of dmoz is dmoz.org/Regional/North_America/Canada/British_Columbia/Localities/C/Courtenay/Business_and_Economy/Real_Estate/ but I do not see any link to contact the editor.
-
Yes, it's still worth it. Got listed a month ago. In addition to the listing, I've now got links from 50+ other sites that scrape dmoz. I'm sure those 50 don't do much, but I did get a noticeable bump.
I submitted it and then 5 days later I contacted the editor and let him know that two sites that were listed in the category were now dead. He removed them and added mine.
-
I have had the same experiences. First time submitted and waited a year and nothing. Re-submitted and after another 6 months nothing. I had heard the link one gets (assuming one gets one) has been devalued
-
Yes.... and good luck getting on it.
I've been waiting near 6 months for three submissions to be added (all different categories as well).
-
If you can get on it its worth it.....I think all the admins died and went to hell nobody will update my listing with the correct business name FML

Do You Risk A Penalty From Local Paid Directories in 2022?
Hi there, I have a client who wants to advertise in a local directory along the lines of "find your nearest plumber". The directory only has paid listings and they are follow links and they also mention your site or generated landing page may get a nice bump on google. Is there a risk that they may get a penalty for using this directory? The client wants to use it regardless of if it gives them an SEO boost but obviously wants to avoid any penalties at all costs. Thoughts on this? Thanks in advance

How to work with directories for SEO?
Hi, How many directory links do you tend to build in 1 month? And what do you look for in a directories before you submit? I could build 2 links a day from directories but the thought of 60 links being built a month from directories shouts bad news to me. I've had a look and come across a few directories with high DA/PA but at the end of the day they are just link directories, no content, lots of thin pages with lots of links pointing out. A couple of examples of good directories would help. Cheers

Link Directories
Hi there, We're very shortly launching a new website so as part of our link strategy we will be linking to directories found with the Link Acquisition Assistant for various keyword searches. I was wondering at what point is it not worthwhile submitting to these directories with regards PA and DA? For example if a directory has a domain authority of 69 but the page authority for the keyword in question is only 1, would it be a waste of time? Cheers

Why are major directories missing from link report
Why are back links like dir.yahoo.com not listed in the link report for sites that are listed in dir.yahoo.com? For a site with 18 back links and a DA of 28, how much affect, if any, would a paid listing in a directory like yahoo have on the sites DA?
