A probe into the relevance of the mainstream search engine and DMOZ catalogue

What is DMOZ? Dmoz (The Open directory http://www.aliyun.com/zixun/aggregation/3022.html ">PROJECT/ODP") is a collection of manually edited directories for Search engines provide results or data. Most of these manual editors are volunteers, so it is not an easy thing to add DMOZ to the site, and some sites even need more than a year to be included ....

Once someone said that the search engine no longer pay attention to the DMOZ manual directory, dmoz Google PageRank help is not much, so I made a small attempt to remind everyone, because DMOZ directory authority, and strict audit standards, so it is still an important source of search engine information.

Take WWW.2KY.CN as an example, note: DMOZ manual directory has been included, included address: World:chinese Simplified: computer: Programming: Network programming

Test start: Search for "shared century" in Google, with the following information:

You notice: For the description part of the site: The search engine shows "the Program scripting source sharing interactive community." "The webmaster will find this description, not the description content in the shared century page." In fact, this data from the DMOZ manual directory, Google grabbed this information and the introduction of the database, and then render the results directly from the database call out.

The following is a collection of information from the shared century in the DMOZ directory.

We found that the description part of Google is the DMOZ included in the introduction section. Google will thus affect the user experience of the information, directly from the DMOZ crawl, sufficient to see its important role.

DMOZ is now used by most major search engines. This fact proves that DMOZ is the most important submitting object and why thousands of websites have spent months asking DMOZ editors to add their own sites to the directory. The ultimate benefit of being eligible for DMOZ is that you can get a good ranking on other search engines.

Note: Google's top three locations are more likely to be reserved for sites that join DMOZ at the same time; AllTheWeb Join DMOZ's homepage/website to improve rankings; AOL Search is a hierarchical directory organized by topic. All AOL user-submitted web site content is maintained by Open Directory Project (Open Directory projects), DMOZ; HotBot and its parent company Lycos also use DMOZ data; AltaVista also uses DMOZ to support its site search, Inktomi uses DMOZ to purify their list of results, or to search quality control; Netscape and so on ... These are the famous search engines on the Internet, and there are hundreds of smaller search engines and directory indexes that use DMOZ data.

Of course, you can also reject Google's display of the DMOZ directory in the results, just write it in. Currently only GOOGLE,MSN announces support for this feature.

Recently, a webmaster told me, Baidu also began in some sites description, display DMOZ information, this is a very important information, want to do SEO webmaster attention.
