Last week, I submitted a site to DMOZ but it asked me to wait. Till now, it has not been listed on its site. In this context, can you tell me how far is to good to submit a site to it? What are the advantages and disadvantages using it?
DMOZ will help your site if you get listed. However, there is a BIG chance that you won't get listed. IMHO it's still worth the effort since it takes less than a minute to submit your site and then you can move on with your life. If you wake up one morning and see a backlink from DMOZ it'll be like a bonus you never expected.
Submitting to DMOZ doesn’t mean you’ll get the listing. Since DMOZ is such a quality directory, a lot of people are submitting their sites. With so many submissions, it takes time for the editors to review and approve your site. Even hearing back about your listing can take months, so be patient before resubmitting your site.
