Promote your site on the DMOZ data Base


I requested that serialphy be included into the DMOZ Directory [Open Directory Project]. Years ago it was really important to be listed in DMOZ, which is what Google built its directory from. These days it hard to even find a link to the Google directory, it's all about just using the search bar now.

But because the DMOZ directory is free to down load, any one can build there own web directory. Which means that your site listing could end up in a number of different search directories. So, I still recommend getting your site listed in the Open Directory. Not really sure how much directory are used any longer.....

interfacebus.com has been listed in DMOZ for years now, and serialphy should be large enough to be included, but I won't know for a number of weeks.

July 21, still no listing on DMOZ for serialphy.com yet, but the site is listed out in Alexa ~ rank at 13,331,215. Compare that to the ranking of interfacebus.com ~ 122,044

Dec 29-08 DMOZ, or the Open Directory Project still does not list serialphy. About a month ago I saw one of their pages about site additions and it indicated getting a new site listed could take a year.

That's a long time to wait, but I still recommend adding the site to that directory. So the sooner the better.

Looks like the Alexa Traffic rank has increased a bit over the last 6 months.

1/31/09 I checked again and www.serialphy.com is still not listed. The ODP page that www.interfacebus.com is listed on has not been up-dated sense 2007 and the page has no editor, nor do a few other pages I checked.

Alexa Rank:
interfacebus.com = 147,842
serialphy.com = 11,117,194
interfacebus.net = 3,442,540
