any good directories?

[david]

Anyone know some good human edited directories to submit links too?

[AWS]

Other than dmoz and Yahoo I don't know any good ones. There is another, but, I don't remember the name of it off hand. It's a couple years old and some of dmoz editors were invited to edit. They get paid per site reviewed from what I understand.

I've applied to be an editor at DMOZ now. I am not sure whether it will be agreed or not, but no harm in trying. :D

[AWS]

I am a meta editor at dmoz although I'm not as active as I once was. I got accepted in 1998 shortly after it was opened and was promoted to meta in 2001.

[hari]

Are they still accepting applications actively?

[AWS]

Yes they are.

[hari]

I'm not going to hold my breath but I'll be hoping that I can get in. It seems to be a useful resource.

I think a lot of other directories scrape it, to get their own directories filled. So in essence getting accepted to DMOZ can get you a lot more than one back link.

 

I've submitted numerous sites but none have ever made it :(

[AWS]

Hundreds of thousands of sites use dmoz data so a link in there goes a long way.

I think many of scraping other directories, to get their own directories full. So, in essence, be accepted in DMOZ can get much more than a link back.

Yes! i agree with thing that DMOZ is best.
