After not looking for a month, i see my site is now listed in DMOZ when i do a search for my site.

HOWEVER, when i click on the category they say i'm listed in, i'm nowhere to be found in the list.

Does the category 'sweep' new entries periodically and it's just a matter of a few days before i'm in the directory listing OR is there likely some disconnect that i need to make them aware of?

Thanks.

Patience. You'll have to wait for the next dmoz update.

Don't hold your breath - they are updating servers. But you can relax - you're in the category, it's just not showing on the public side yet.

Just forget all about it for another month or two.

Thanks!

I'm just trying to stay on top of it as i just lost Google PR rank (now PR0 from a PR3) as well as a high Google SERP ranking... hoping this helps.

Thanks again for the reply.

If you've been penalised by Google for some reason then having a dmoz link will have no effect on your PR.

As far as i know, i have a clean site. Is there anyway to find out if i've been penalized OR if this PR0 is temporary and a result of the Google craziness of late?

Thanks.

That's a question for a Google forum. :)
