How long does it take to get listed in Dmoz

Hi,
How long does it take to get listed in Dmoz?

If you're putting out new sites, take some time and read the guidelines and then for every site... submit it and forget it. The benefit to the new sites/niche sites can be pretty decent if they get in, it doesn't cost anything and only takes a few minutes.

It'll either show up in your logs as a referrer or backlinks at some point, or it won't but you should submit if the site is worth promoting IMO.

If you're site is old, established and has plenty of old content expect a couple of weeks. If it's new, forget about it and re-submit once it's a little older!

I agree .
Absolutely trues.

It can take anything from 1 day to 1 year. It all depends on the reviewer that's in charge of that section, which always makes me wonder why people still want to submit to DMOZ, it's an aging dinosaur which no one really cares about anymore.

As above, timelines can vary but it always helps if you know someone on the inside 

Not saying I know anyone but I've in the past had the process sped up due to a friend knowing someone.

DMOZ editors have to checkup every 1 week so shouldn't take more than 7-14 days max. If you're still waiting after a year chances are the editor is corrupt.

I'm still waiting for my site to get approved, it's been over 2 years 

I guess I should take a hint then, that it's never going up lol

I’m giving up myself for listing on DMOZ.  I’ve been waiting for 6 months. It just feels like forever to me. If they reject my website, why not say a word of it. It would be more polite, I guess.

Hey,
What is the use of sumitting a site to DMOZ? Don't mind I am new to DMOZ.. Do we get traffic or what? I have read so many threads on different forums submitting there sites to DMOZ. Whats this?
