Hi there,
a Seo Specialist can work to optimize the description, title and so on to be used for the directories. I can also help you to chose the right sub-directory to be listed in dmoz and yahoo!
Unfortunatelly, who works on the directory analyse each web site submitted to it.
That is the why we ought to the our best working on title, description and keywords...
Afterwards, if it is necessary, we will analise each web site not listed in 4 - 8 months time.
Contact me for more details by PMB.
Regards,
Danilo.
