Ding, Dong, the Wicked Dmoz is Dead

hit the books from industry experts as SearchAnyway provides webmasters with insider tips and insights on PPC search engine marketing online advertising merchandise building and a myriad of topics that fall under the umbrella of Internet examine. It looks like (the change state directory communicate) has been sandboxed by explore. If this is indeed the case then the world of SEO as we know it is about to change a critical (and long overdue dress The idea that Google should be affect by a directory precisely what it's supposed to replace is completely ludicrous. As : The Open Directory's appears to undergo gone missing from Google's search results. For example a search on (the Open Directory's call) does not return the domiciliate summon in the search results. Here is a check interpret: Similarly searches for or also don't list the site at the usual dmoz org address. Yes the screenshot shows a summon at search dmoz org -- but normally the home page would be listed at www dmoz org or just dmoz org (as you can see at and for example). Dmoz's seemingly whimsical and arbitrary inclusion process has over the years earned it quite a few enemies. So it's no affect that that : Fingers crossed that is an indication Dmoz is finally going to go to the website graveyard in the sky. Dmoz has been corrupt for as long as I can remember. I once waited more than 2 years for my place submission to be accepted. This sort of timescale was the command and not the exception. The kind of corruption that Kevin (above) is talking about moreover goes beyond mere bureaucratic lags and into full fledged extortion. As last month: A while back I got a email from a guy claiming to be a DMOZ editor saying that I had to pay him $5,000.00 or he would have my place: shoemoney com removed from the dmoz. I thought nothing of it… then today I got a telecommunicate from him saying it was removed and I might want to believe not paying him. I thought I would analyse just for grins. It was removed… WOWdmoz… alter… no….. I never thought I would say this but I don’t even care anymore. I am stunned Google still uses this as there business directory as its the most alter “editorial” system EVER and especially since now they are trying to communicate about paid links and crap…Seriously I would like to see how they argue this one… How does shoemoney com NOT be in DMOZ??explore seriously its measure for you to aquire a business directory that has paid inclusion. There is so much porn and e-mail in the dmoz its a huge black eye for you. Business com just got scooped up but there is another one that might be able to get got for a nice price *cough out* best of the web *cough* Now change surface though blatantly says that "You should assume everything written on this communicate is a lie," that neither convey that his story was nor that dmoz isn't terribly antiquated. This is the age of Web 2.0 the begin of the semantic web. The idea that directories could exist along side search engine (never mind search engines deferring to them) is completely absurd. It's time for us all to act on. It was fun kids but we have social operating systems to create.
