DMOZ - Do You Still Submit To It?

http://www.dmoz.org/adult/

Just wondered how many of you folks still submit sites to Dmoz on a regular basis?

If you do, are you seeing much traffic coming from the ODP itself?

I forget about that one all the time. lol I normally do google, yahoo, overture/msn/aol.

The rest I would just use one of those submission programs for. Those 3 are the most widely used ones from back when I worked for a search engine optimization company. (3 years ago.) Things may have changed since then, but I don’t think so.

You know i used to submit to every major search engine going a year or two ago but soon discovered that if i ONLY submitted a site to Dmoz soon enough it would get listed on all of the other SE's anyway :eek:

Needless to say it cut down the time it took me to submit my sites to virtually 5 minutes instead of about 20 minutes per site!

I submitted a site back in January, but I'm not holding my breath waiting for ODP to review it. An SEO website at the time said ODP had been taking six months to review a listing, and I don't know how old the SEO website info was.

If you're not paying for website submission, it makes sense to give ODP one shot per site, as there are few free search engine submissions these days. (ODP is a directory, but it feeds into search engines.) Yahoo now has a free search engine submission (but not a free directory submission), and I believe it was Yahoo who took over AllTheWeb and Altavista, who have both placed a temporary hold on new free submissions. The other two currently accepting adult site free submissions are Google and Lycos.
