Google drops DMOZ PR!

[lowster11]

I noticed Google dropped the DMOZ PR from 9 to 8.

[Mitel]

I show a 9.

[lowster11]

Yeah, all of the DC's have not updated yet so all PR on sites are jumping back and forth right now, but you can see it here http://livepr.raketforskning.com/

DMOZ needs a good smack in the face.

DOMZ is also loosing positions in the serps..... Theres trouble ahead... :dmoz:

[lowster11]

I've also noticed the same for http://dir.yahoo.com

They needed a good smack too. $300 is highway robbery.

[lowster11]

That is robbery, especially since they do not guarantee inclusion, but will keep your money anyway, and charge $299 every year if your site is added!! I would much rather spend $300 to list my site on 15 top directories, or beer?

[Web Gazelle]

I have seen where they charged $299 then de-indexed the site but continued to charge $299 every year. Thieves! :sad20:

[lowster11]

No doubt, just goes to show that you can pay big bucks to a worthless directory (Yahoo) or submit your site to one that pretty much will ignore you (DMOZ). What a waste of time and money!!!

[Web Gazelle]

Yahoo seems to think that sites listed in their directory should rank better. This last update is showing more sites who are listed in the directory. Well atleast in my niche they are. :happy57:

[steve_gts]

I don't know about other countries, but here in the UK virtually nobody used Yahoo any more anyway, so thats $300, Err well, about £170 to take down the pub tonight, should be a good night :jiggy:

DMOZ needs a good smack in the face.
