DMOZ or the ODP (Open Directory Project) is easily the largest directory of websites on teh web, with almost 5 million sites listed. There is plenty of misinformation about DMOZ in the SEO forums and about how useful it is to a web site to get listed in DMOZ. There are lots of unsubstantiated and silly claims in SEO forums about the corrpution and backroom deals at DMOZ. It can take anywhere from a few days up to several years to get a site listed in DMOZ. There is plenty of good advice on how to get a site listed in DMOZ. Editors look for sites that have something on them that other sites do not have, ie unique content. Just because a competitor is listed does not mean that you will get listed. DMOZ wants you to add some value to the category and have something that is not already listed.
