Dear Webmasters,

I had built my travel related website 5 years ago and it is quite popular without thousands of unique visitors a month and its google page rank is 5 but I do not understand why my site is not put into Dmoz Directory? Please help me and tell me how can I do?

So why do you care about something that will make absolutely no difference at all?

What's your site which have 5 Page Rank value? The site which is in your profile 2/10 according to my Google Toolbar. Anyway don't worry anything about the DMOZ. It's not the fault of your site, just the DMOZ editors are very lazy and they very disaffected to the editing which was their pretence in this game . . .

What a total load of ill-informed rubbish.
Of course it's the fault of the site! It's not your right to be listed in the ODP, the brief for editors is:
Quote:
In general, ODP editors should enter sites that represent the following:

* Original, unique and valuable informational content that contributes something unique to the category's subject.
* Contrasting points of view on major issues. The ODP attempts to cover the full breadth and depth of human knowledge, representing all topics and points of view on those topics.

Editors should consider the following for each site:
Quote:
Is the site's content/information identical to other sites?
A site should not mirror content available on other sites.
Have you ever bothered to read that? Taken from the Editors guidelines.
and how about list of sites that the ODP does not generally include.

As for the site in question I found 2 mirror sites plus several others using exactly the same text in a different layout.

It not DMOZ editors that are "lazy or disaffected", it's the website owners/operators that are lazy.
Create a unique or at least different site and it will have a chance of being listed in directories that actually care about their content!!

All things considered, I would say that would set them well above any that have approved the sites in your signature.
