Importance of dmoz
DMOZ-The open directory project. Most people related to internet (not just the SEO gurus) have at least heard of DMOZ. It actually stands for Directory Mozilla, but has been officially renamed to the Open Directory Project. One can define DMOZ as a listing of all of the websites on the internet that have been submitted. They have been meticulously categorized and checked for authenticity before being placed in the directory.
Anyone can become an editor to help build the largest human edited directory on the web. At the same time anyone can add his/her own listings to this directory. I know almost every internet savvy knows this but this is also a fact that a lot of us still trying to get listed. Some are waiting for months after submitting their site.
The beauty of dmoz is that it’s edited by volunteers, and they are not forced in any way to carry out the job. So in most cases, after few intial active months people get occupied with other stuff and this leaves hundreds of thousands of sites on hold (begging for a review).
No doubt that DMOZ is important. If you want success and backlinks for your site, listing it with DMOZ is a great place to start. But that’s not the end, just submit your site properly, and get on with other link building techniques.
