    I have been told that it is virtually impossible being listed in DMOZ short of bribing a publisher? Has anyone made it into DMOZ the legal way and if so how?

    Unfortunately DMOZ is still very difficult to get listed on due to a variety of reasons including a huge shortage of editors.

    If your category is looked after by an active editor you could be listed within a few days if the editor approves your site but if there is no editor you could wait indefinately.

    I have submitted many sites to DMOZ and I've never had the chance to get listed !
    I'm sure that my sites meet their requirements but ...
    Anyway I think at first it was a good idea but this shortage of editors is going to be a problem.
    Always keep in mind that there is no point for the editors to approve your site !!! they are not get paid and they may also be your competitor !

    I am not sure if it's just my problem or not !
    It have been two since I am trying to submit a site to DMOZ (what a waste of time) but keep receiving "Service Temporarily Unavailable" error message !
    I tried by different computers and different locations so it shouldn't be just mine.

    Any idea ?
