Does anyone have any experience getting local DMOZ listings?
-
I have a client with a business that has locations in about 20 different states. Can I get them local listings in DMOZ? If so, how?
-
I guess you can be thankful for the one you managed to get : )
-
DGSEO, as everyone else has stated, it's VERY unlikely that you'll be able to get more than one DMOZ listing. I know it took me weeks just to get one!!
-
Definitely, Liz... Google places works for this client very well.
Thanks!
-
Yeah... we're thankful to have the ones we've got!

You will have trouble getting any site listed in DMOZ!
Not saying it's impossible, but the last 5 sites I've tried to get listed have failed miserably despite following their guidelines definitively.
-
You would have difficulty getting one site listed in more than one category of DMOZ:
"You should submit a site to the single most relevant category. " http://www.dmoz.org/add.html
Is there a main office location you could use?
Google Places would be really important for you- setting a listing up for each location and ensuring to link to the most appropriate subdomain of the client's site.

Is listing our media mentions in our News section canceling inbound link benefit?
Long-time Moz user, first question ever! When our company is mentioned in the news, we add a blurb to our In the News section on our site. If we link to the article, is that 2-way link canceling out the benefit of the inbound link from the publication? It's a two-way link, but we aren't trading links with SEO intent or doing anything malicious. Thanks, Sean

Getting two BOTW.org listings? Regular drirectory + blog directory?
I have a start-up website. It's a niche market that's not all that competitive. I'm trying to get going with some basic link building, and I'm trying to focus for the time being on some recommended directories: BOTW, yahoo, business.com, etc. I already have a regular BOTW directory listing, accepted a few days ago. I'm wondering if it's worth also getting a BOTW blog directory listing? So two BOTW listings, the first pointing to the homepage, the second would point to the blog. If there is meaningful link juice to be passed, would there be an advantage of having two links? Or will the one I already have suffice? Also, since the site is new, I only have a few blog posts. Is BOTW likely to reject me because my blog is too thin? The posts I have are content-heavy (1000-2500 words per entry), but there's just not a large total quantity yet. Normally I wouldn't consider it, but they're having a cyber-monday sale today where it's 50% off the regular price, so it makes the decision easier. Thanks.

How can a not so passionate subject get links? Need ideas?
Our client owns a very big pest control site. They are competing with pestmall, orkin, terminex to name a few. Almost all of there competitors are spamming like crazy. For some of their competitors it is working. They get natural links very slowly. Maybe 1 natural link every week. How can a not so passionate subject get links? Here was my ideas. Offer a tool to pest control sites for a link in return. The flaw is most pest control company owners are not tech savy and if they are they have hired it out. I just really need some ideas. Thank you.
