We can define Open Directory Project as the very important human edited directory on the web. Open directory project (dmoz.org) does not crawl the web links but we can say that it works like database of Google because it takes site data from ODP.

Why because of it's a largest human edited directory and there are no chances of spam and the rules of inclusion in directory are very strict to maintain the quality. It doesn't compromises on quality.

When it comes to submission it takes 6 months to approve your listing. Always avoid to submit again within 6 months of first submission otherwise it will consider your site as spam.

ODP - Promises of Rejection

(1.) Make it clear that your site shouldn't be redirected.

(2.) Include your most important keywords in site description.

(3.) Go deep down the length when submitting, for most specific category.

(4.) Never exchange links with adult prone sites.

(5.) Description shouldn't look like promotional text and don't show off prices and offers of your product and services in it.

(6.) You should not submit more than one page from your site into different categories. Yes, sometimes you can but make sure each page has significant, unique and recognizable content for a category.

(7.) Website shouldn't be mirror or under construction.

Linking directly to your own blog is a Newsvine no-no.

You can double-post your material. You are supposed to post the entire blog article here, but not link readers to it.

Newsvine Code of Honor:
3. Newsvine is for collaborative discovery and discussion of the news, not self-promotion. Posting full articles which also appear on your blog is acceptable but seeding your own stuff is not.
I guess he should just leave the link out.

You can vote for yourself here, but your vote does not count toward the leaderboard. The leaderboard is here as a result of curiosity regarding earnings & hits.

My best guess is that self-promotion is prohibited for several reasons. It could lead to a lot of spamming. It could also lead to advertising. I'm sure there are more, but those are a couple reasons off the top of my head.
